The True Smash Bros. Starts Here

Artist Flavio Bolla did a pretty neat paint of Kalm and its mini-reactor, which is the first town we visit in Final Fantasy VII, once leaving Midgar.

Ash From Pokémon Has The Body Of A Greek God

Of course the old-school SNES version of Tarantino’s Kill Bill would be a fast-paced hack ‘n’ slash with huge boss fights and little mini-games. CineFix summed up both movies—it wasn’t hard to include every scene though—in a 2-minute video as a game from the 90s. Kill Bill Vol 1 and 2 – 8 Bit Cinema…

Sadly, “Hat_Dogs” is not an addon for Watch Dogs or Team Fortress 2, but an impressive piece of editing by STBlackST of TF2 characters hacking each other and teleporting bread.
