Maru’s boyfriend Paladinhad, until last week, never cosplayed in his life. Time for that to change. The pair (Maru is a cosplay vet) went together as Link and Zelda to AniRevo Winter 2016 in Vancouver, and looked fantastic Pic by Oshley Photography
Clustertruck looked cool when I first saw it. Now that I’ve played it? First opinion still stands. Below you’ll see me play through some of the alpha’s first few levels. Oh, and die a lot. The entire game isn’t due out until later in the year, but if you want to try out a few…
Firewatch is a first-person video game where you’re constantly reminded of your character’s feet, arms, torso and legs. That all looks very cool in the intended first-person, but pan the camera out a little and oh my god Artist Olly Moss, who worked on the game, has been tweeting these clips today, showing the game’s…
I got done reading The Untold History of Japanese Game Developers Volume 2 the other day, and it was awesome, full of stories like yakuza links to 80s studios, a video game kidnapping and a ton of fascinating interviews with Japanese developers. You can take a look here (or get it in a rad bundle…
Now that Firewatch has been out for a few days, players have had enough time for the game’s Steam page to fill up with user-submitted screenshots. And hoo boy I knew this was a pretty video game, but I forgot that there’d be folks out there playing it on 21:9/double monitors, whose setup basically means…
Yeah, Rocket League is out on Xbox One next week, but if you absolutely must play it on Microsoft’s console today, a pretty decent version of it has been made using Halo 5’s editing tools. It’s far from perfect—the pitch has spots where the ball can get stuck, and the physics gets weird sometimes—but then,…

One of the real joys of Civilization V, a key factor in keeping people playing once the systems have worn thin, is the game’s character. Each rival AI isn’t just an AI. Thanks to a wonderful combination of art style, animation and voice, they’re very human opponents. Instead of just reacting to an AI’s calculations,…
While Republic Commando never actually got a sequel, for a short time plans were in place to make one. At Lucasarts HQ, there were two competing storylines vying for selection. Brett Douville, lead developer on the game, has been speaking with cinelinx, and says that while both were set in roughly the same time period,…

This isn’t some quick, cheap piece of machinima. This is a very impressive animated short that basically throws the cast of Mario Kart into Star Wars fighters and lets them go at it. It’s great, no? I really like the part wh- Luke, what’s wrong? I felt a great disturbance in the Force. As if…
Cosplay has always prided itself on its ability to transform fans into their heroes, wherever and whoever they are. In theory, at least. In practice, things haven’t always been that perfect, especially when a fan is black. This piece originally appeared 2/10/16. The cosplay scene is full of cool people who are committed to making…

Maybe this is a spoiler? I don’t think it is, but if you’re concerned about that kind of thing with regards to Firewatch, then…be warned. Still with me? OK! So there comes a point fairly onin this excellent video game where you get hold of a camera. Not a fancy digital camera, not a smartphone…
Rocket League is finally coming to Xbox One this month. February 17, to be exact.
