There they were. Two sentences that purportedly said how BioShock Infinite ended. Two sentences that I’d worked hard to avoid seeing for the better part of last week, after hearing that spoilers were popping up on message boards everywhere. That really, really sucked. Don’t worry: there are no spoilers in this post. Spoilers are an…
In Ubisoft’s upcoming techno-action game, hacker Aiden Pearce will be able to access information systems all over the city of Chicago. What does he do with that info? Have a look at the new promo clip and see. Great job, Aiden, now all those people are going to be late for work. You call that…
Scrolls—the next game from Minecraft studio Mojang—will be releasing in beta next month, according to Polygon
It’s a new day—and a new TAY—for Kotaku. Go join the voices talking about video games and life in Talk Amongst Yourselves, our reader-written blog.
Back in January of last year, Irrational Games announced that BioShock Infinite would have a hardcore 1999 Mode, which would make players pick a specialization that locks them into a set framework of powers and skills. There’d be no going back on those choices and death would be permanent. Back then, Irrational said that the…
So there’s been a veritable drought of information about Rain, the clever precipitation-centric adventure shown off at last year’s Gamescom. But a new look at the Sony Japan and Acquire-developed game just surfaced and it looks absolutely lovely. The parts where the lead character is stumbling around because the player can’t seem are poignant and…
The PC version of Resident Evil 6 has gotten some lovely updates since the title hit desktops last year, like the free upcoming crossover with Left 4 Dead 2. But players who’ve been trying to kill the bio-organic weapons in Capcom’s action game have been complaining of crippling bugs that stop the game from running…
You’ll get to have multiple versions of the Dark Knight fighting against each other later this year when the just announced Infinite Crisis comes to PCs. The MOBA title is being developed by Turbine. Here’s what the press release says: Infinite Crisis is a new entrant into the wildly popular MOBA genre that delivers a…
Depending on where in the country you live, you might have the nagging feeling that portions of the United States have broken clean off. Just up and decided to veer into their own orbits, consequences be damned. And, because any notion that these States aren’t United is a really uncomfortable one, a cacophony of voices…
Fuse—the upcoming multiplayer shooter from Insomniac Games—will be coming out on May 28th.
It’s hard to know what to think about the next Splinter Cell right now. I liked Conviction but the last Sam Fisher game was a clear break with some of the series’ more iconic elements. Blacklist is clearly trying to bring some of that tech/stealth feel back while also expanding the options and scope of…
Let’s all remember: we haven’t seen the PlayStation 4 yet. Along with games that were purportedly running on the system specs, Sony’s event last month only showed viewers the controller. So it’s still up for grabs as to what the actual console will look like. That means that renders like the one above are still…
As revealed last week, two of video games’ biggest zombie-centric franchises will be bumping uglies when crossover content for the PC versions of Resident Evil 6 and Left 4 Dead 2 hits in in two weeks. This video shows what it looks like when Coach, Nick, Ellis and Rochelle take on the BOWs of Capcom’s…
Well, this is unfortunate: a glitch discovered by a Canadian player makes it look like Lara Croft’s tank top has gone all see-through. The glitch was sent in by a person who goes by Recostar from S3DGamerZone. Here’s his account of how the bug came to light while he was playing the game in 3D…
Like L.A. Noire two years ago, Beyond: Two Souls will have a special showcase at the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival
So you all read the latest issue of Brian Vaughan and Fiona Staples’ awesome sci-fi family drama and thought I was going to lead with all the S-E-X that happens in there? Nope. The sequence where The Will gives the best cat in all comics the hug of life totally made me gasp when I…
Right now, it looks like dev studio NetherRealm is trying to account for as many of DC Comics’ heaviest hitters in Injustice as possible. They’ve just announced that Captain Marvel Shazam’s archenemy will be flying into the fray. Teth-Adam will be joined by Raven, the half-demon empath who’s been a stalwart of the Teen Titans…
Valve’s just launched an Indie Spring Sale on Steam just in time for next week’s Independent Games Festival
Yesterday, game-makers and fans were all up in arms over comments made by Richard Garriott to PC Gamer, where he said, among other things, that “most game designers really just suck.” Now the man best known for his ground-breaking work on the Ultima games has issued a clarification. On the website for his Portalarium dev…
