League Of Legends: The Cosplay Movie

Not only is this some of the best League of Legends cosplay I’ve ever seen, it’s also one of the most professional cosplay videos I’ve ever seen. It’s by a team of Chinese cosplayers, and if you like your cosplay showcases to be completely over-the-top with corny-ass soundtracks, then boy is this the vid for…

Zelda vs Overwatch

You can’t get Overwatch on the Switch, but if you could, I bet it’d be full of cameos like this. This is by 3D artist Aaron Walker. If it looks familiar, that’s because it’s a big fancy render of some fan art that we posted last year by French artist Jeremy Vitry The rig and…

The Art Of Uncharted: The Lost Legacy

If there’s one constant across Naughty Dog’s games, it’s that the art that goes into them always ends up contributing to some of the best Fine Art posts we feature that year. Their latest effort is no exception. 15 months after the release of Uncharted 4, many of the same artists who made that such…

Fans Remaking Tomb Raider 2 In Unreal Engine 4

The new Tomb Raider games are great, but sometimes you just want to go back and play the classics. And sometimes you want to go back and play the classics but with very modern visuals. That’s why Tomb Raider fan Nicobass is leading development on The Dagger of Xian, a complete remake of the second…

If you’re not100% burned out on hearing Sabotage in a trailer by now, Destiny 2’s live-action clip is pretty good.

Blizzard Fixes “Culturally Insensitive” (Not Really) Overwatch Sign

Blizzard “upset” (not really, but bear with me) many Australians recently with a “culturally insensitive” sign in the new Junkertown map on Overwatch. That sign has now been fixed, and we are all free to get on with our lives. As first detailed in this Kotaku Australia story, the map—which is set in a desolate…

Anyone who’s a fan of Fantasy Flight’s Game of Thrones board game will be right at home with thecompany’s new Battle for Rokugan, which…looks almost identical to GoT, only it swaps out Westeros for FF’s Rokugan universe.

Bomber Crew Is A (Cute) WW2 Bomber Sim

The Allied bombing campaigns during the Second World War were devastatingly serious business, but Bomber Crew is trying to chip that grimness away in favour of a more Cannon Fodder-y approach to destroying cities. It’s a “strategic survival sim” that puts you in command of a very cute little Lancaster bomber and its crew, as…

Cosplayers Create Their Own Wonder Woman Vanity Fair Shoot

You know how nerd stuff sometimes appears in Vanity Fair looking all gorgeous and fancy? A team of cosplayers decided to stage their own version, only this time with the characters from the new Wonder Woman movie. In keeping with the spirit of Vanity Fair shoots, not only did the cosplayers pose around some nice…

The Art Of Darkest Dungeon

What do you get when you mix a little of Mike Mignola’s Hellboy with some pure despair? You get Darkest Dungeon, one of the most visually distinctive games on the market. Below you’ll find some examples of the art that has gone into the game. I mean, yes, thanks to its visual design you could…

There’s A Tiny Spot In Zelda Where Cel-Shading Doesn’t Work

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has a very distinctive cel-shaded look. That, for some reason, breaks if you climb inside one tiny little space. Rangers_of_the_North noticed it around a month ago (thanks, @MaxOfS2D) after climbing into the area, which you can find halfway up the gatehouse on the bridge over Lake Hylia.…

WW2 Game Picks A Fight With Gandhi

I’m a big fan of the Order of Battle series, and while that’s mostly down to its snappy turn-based strategy, it’s also because the games dare to visit theatres of the Second World War that competitors never even consider. The latest example: asking you to take a break from a war against Japan to go…

Dude Builds Perfect Jumanji Replica

Steven Richter, a man so talented with wood and blades that it’s a little terrifying, felt like creating a “screen accurate” recreation of Jumanji. So he did, and filmed the whole process. And I mean whole process. The entire thing is built from scratch. The magnets are a very nice touch. Please leave all whatyear.gif…

The Weird Stuff That Happens When You’re An NBA 2K Commentator

NBA broadcaster Kevin Harlan should be famous for his work on actual live basketball games. Turns out for a lot of people he’s known as being the only voice they ever hear coming out of a video game. Harlan sat down with the Just Not Sports podcast the other day to talk about his decade’s…
