Fake It To Make Itis a game that puts you in charge of a website devoted to creating and spreading fictional and/or sensationalised online “news” articles. It has been put together by someone who clearly knows how online media works, and that makes it more than a little frightening. Amanda Warner, the game’s designer, says…
The way later Animal Crossing titles have scrolled make it appear to the player that the game world is round. Zoom the camera out past the confines of a DS/3DS/TV screen, though, and the world is not so much round as it is a giant, habitable roll of toilet paper. The gif above is taken…
Nier: Automata is a fine video game, but it also has some technical problems on PC which are a bit of a bummer. Where Platinum and Square have come up short, though, a fan-made mod is making things right. Kaldaien’s FAR mod (Fix Automata Resolution) does like its name suggests and fixes the game’s fullscreen…

Australia’s infamous Classification Board last week essentially banned the upcoming Outlast 2 from going on sale in the country. And only a few days later has backed down and said, oh, ok, the game is actually fine. The initial reason given for the Board’s decision was that, despite Australia now having an 18+ age classification…
Overwatch Fantasia is a project by some Korean artists to take Blizzard’s roster of Heroes and make them look like they walked out of something like a Final Fantasy artbook. Because it’s the work of a whole team, there are multiple takes on many of the characters, some bright and bubbly, others looking more like…
The next time you want to skip those animations, World of Final Fantasy players, think of the poor artists.
Boss Fight Props, normally in the business of making cosplay gear, decided to take his Switch controller and dress it up like a GameCube pad. I would buy this, if only for the colour-coded buttons. I would buy multiples if it was the GameCube’s old “spice” colour scheme While the images look like renders, it’s…

Since the game’s launch in October 2016, fans have been working on mods that do everything from make the game look better to improving the creaky AI to speeding up your trips through the user interface. Below you’ll…
Inspired by, of all things, this 2015 post about a Korean fashion store, a team of cosplayers, photographers and videographers got together last month and produced this absolutely incredible Sailor Moon fashion shoot. The project was assembled by CineCosu Studios’ Dominique Zamora. “I wanted to shoot a cosplay editorial that highlighted not only the scouts…
