Let’s be honest: Broforce was basically already an unofficial Expendables video game, so it’s not a huge shock to hear that they’re making it official. It is, however, a reason for there to be more (free!) Broforce, which is always a good thing. Titled The Expendabros, the promotional tie-in is a collaboration between the people…
That is a pretty good gif. (via)
If you’ve been readingKotaku and paying attention to the stuff that a lot of our writers like, you’ve probably watched Bong Joon-ho’s terrific post-apocalyptic train-tale Snowpiercer. And while the film’s allegory was likely pretty obvious to anyone who was paying attention, it was often conveyed in some smart, subtle ways. This new video from Evan…
I love this battle music from Divinity: Original Sin. It doesn’t fit with the overall vibe of the game at all. It sounds more like…spy music? You know, from a spy game. But all the same, I love it. Every time it starts playing, I laugh.
August: It’s not just the name of a month, it’s a word that means “respected and impressive.” This August, we hold our gaming devices like the august men and women we are, ready to play some video games while sitting next to the air conditioner. It’s the last deep breath before the fall rush begins,…
Titanfall‘s new Frontier’s Edge DLC is out today. I was on the Export map and found that the level design seems to encourage camping while in a Titan. Not really something I regularly (or ever?) do, so, interesting. Anyone else out there playing? What do you think of the new maps?
Let a little love into your day. Play The Arboretum, a lovely, melancholy short story/game by Matthew Burns. It’s really good.
Don’t play games online, they say. If you have to play games online, turn off chat. If you have to turn on chat, limit it to your friends list. In the past, if you’ve wanted to avoid the toxic jerks of online gaming, those have been your guidelines. It feels like that’s finally changing. Many…
Mirror’s Edge was born to be high-res. The latest shots up at Dead End Thrills show Dice’s first-person runner looking sharper than ever. Pleeeease don’t let Mirror’s Edge 2 suck, pleeeeease don’t let Mirror’s Edge 2 suck…
On the street where you live, there’s a house built out of zombie clichés. The porch looks like an abandoned quarantine zone, and the walls are covered with hastily scrawled graffiti. The roof is crafted from the finest wrecked national monuments, and the floors appear to be made of actual zombies. And yet: Two people…
Tonight’s stage performance of The Last of Us: One Night Live was weird, ramshackle, funny, and kinda unlike any video-game event I’ve seen. The best part, easily, was the musical number. Most of us have already seen this funny musical “alternate ending” to the game, which was initially thrown together by the cast on the…
Tonight in Santa Monica, something strange and wonderful took place: The actors, writers, musicians and game developers who made The Last of Us put on a performance, live onstage. The show was streamed live, but if you missed it (or want to catch it again), you can watch a recording of the whole thing right…
You’ve successfully made a new gaming PC. Congrats! It was the best, and it was also the worst. (But in general, it was the best.) Now, it’s time to play some games. What’s the first thing you do? Well, the first thing you do is probably download a few games. But once you fire one…
If you’ve frequented many gaming message boards, you’ve probably seen the term “GayStation” tossed around as a cheap slur. Seems it’s about time LGBT activists tried to reclaim it. This custom rainbow PS4, dubbed the ‘Gaystation’ by its creators, is being auctioned during Sweden’s pride week to benefit the Swedish LGBT rights group RFSL. Current…
The Last of Us came out on the PlayStation 3 last year. It was very, very good. This week, a new and improved version of the game will come out for the PlayStation 4. But can a game that was already so good really be “improved” all that much? Tomorrow, The Last of Us: Remastered…
Fargo was darn good, dontcha know. I just finished the first season of Noah Hawley’s FX adaptation of Fargo, and I really liked it. Much, much better than I’d thought it was going to be based on the first episode or two. Did any of you watch? If so, what’d you think?
Surprise! Microsoft says the Destiny beta has opened a day early for Xbox One and Xbox 360. It’s also back online for PS4 and PS3. Time to hop on your speeder bikes and get them XPs.
