Great shot kid, that was one in a million. (Actually, that’s being very unfair, this looks like it took a ton of work to get the positioning right).
It’s an election year, which means there’s been a lot of Bad Twitter. Shining like a light in the darkness, though, is the only political account I’m going to follow in 2016: Dungeons And Donalds The premise is simple: See? Good Twitter
At its I/O 2016 show earlier in the week, Google slipped in some news that Play Store apps—with special focus on games—will now have a section in the store called “Google Play Early Access”, which works pretty much exactly the same as Steam’s Early Access. It’s designed for apps “that are available only as open…

Via Eurogamer, here’s Zero Master playing through Doom’s hardest difficulty level—Ultra Nightmare—without dying a single time. Which is quite the feat.
This isAlexey Konstantynov from Ukraine (a member of Arthammer Workshop) in a 40K Inquisitor outfit that is just incredible Also of note, his Lord of the Rings gear, which is equally impressive.
Lastfight is a new fighting game from Piranaking that, well, as the headline suggests, should be of interest to anyone who likes their fighting games a little (or a lot) more 3D than Street Fighter can manage. Based on a French martial arts comic, it’s oozing with style. There are ten fighters, eight stages and…
To say the new Homefront game has endured a troubled development would be putting it lightly. Something the studio ultimately responsible for the game would like everyone to know once/if they ever finish Homefront Revolution The message below appears at the very start of the game’s closing credits: Even this first-hand explanation sells the chaos…
Paul “Otaking” Johnson, the guy who made that amazing one-man Tie Fighter tribute last year, has just released his latest short (this time, with some help), and it’s all about classic arcade shooter R-Type Johnson released a previewearlier this year, but this is the full clip. It might not be as hectic as the Tie…
I mean no offence by that, adult players of existing Pokémon games. But Pokémon Apex is a fan-made game that’s aimed specifically at post-puberty humans. It’s not an adult adult game. Don’t expect massive art changes or copious amounts of NSFW content or anything like that. But it’s certainly not the all-ages experience that an…

First-person mods in this third-person series are nothing new, but they’ve previously been fairly janky affairs. This one looks good enough to trick you into thinking it’s meant to be in the game. It’s not, of course, since playing the game like this is for lunatics and those not up to speed on the the…
Last week, a Racked article called “Meet the Woman Who Invented Cosplay” did the rounds (including on this site!). It argued that sci-fi pioneer Myrtle R. Douglas invented cosplay in the 1930s. It’s an interesting story, but the truth is a little older. The story’s heart is in the right place! As it primarily focuses,…
90-hour work weeks, free coffee, rad haircuts…working for Sega’s testing team in the mid-90s sure looked like shitty work. Not that it’s any better now—indeed, in many ways it’s probably worse—but not even the thrills of this internal “trainumentary” video (via Attract Mode) and its glorious 90s-ness (Soundgarden backing music, Nine Inch Nails shirts, Seinfeld…
