Tim Duncan: From NBA Live 98 To NBA 2K16

CultureCosplayNobody Stop This Awesome Mask Cosplay
This is Simon Fontaine (The Mask) and Michele Paul (Tina) at the Montreal Comiccon, which went down in Canada over the weekend. We see a lot of guns and swords and rocket launchers in cosplay.

$300 Statue Of Metal Gear Solid V’s Venom Snake Includes Cute Puppy
I can see your pores, Snake. Being a statue, and not an action figure, this won’t be coming with interchangeable hands and weapons and accessories. Though you can take his scarf off, and the detail on some of his gear is crazy. It’s made by Gecco, the same people behind the Quiet statue from earlier…

Guy Beats Fallout 4 Without Getting Hit Even Once
Streamer T Ronix set himself a pretty tough challenge: to beat Fallout 4 without being hit even once. Oh, and without using chems, power armour or companions (unless the story mandated it) either. If he got hit or broke those rules, he’d have to go right back to the start. It took him over 25…
