We’ve seen some amazing photos come out of this year’s BlizzCon, but here’s a nice video put together by Beat Down Boogie.
If you’re proud of your little wooden shack with a turret or two and a landscape painting, you might not want to take a look at this. SeraphinFoad’s Fusion Core Fortress is nothing short of a stronghold, a bulwark of steel and concrete to shield his junk and person from the terrors of the wastelands.…

Russian cosplayer Anna Ormeli, made internet famous for her BioShock Infinite work a few years back, is not really a fan of Jack, one of Mass Effect’s more memorable characters. Not that you’d tell. After a conversation with a friend, whose favourite character is the punk-turned-teacher, Anna decided to try cosplaying as her anyway, going…

Varun Mani is a project manager on Microsoft’s augmented reality goggle tech, HoloLens. This is a video he took where he starts playing Halo 5 on a TV, pauses, turns around then resumes playing on a screen that he can put wherever the hell he wants. We’ve been impressed by HoloLens stuff before, but those…
It’s like Starship Troopers. Or Helm’s Deep. Only scarier. Cosmic Contrarian’s modified hellscape here has 300 Brotherhood of Steel soldiers manning the barricades against 30,000 Deathclaws, all piled up through Boston and ready to go Somehow, his PC keeps running the entire time.
Earlier this year, Martin Bergman was working on a GTA V graphics mod that looked positively unreal. It’s still not out—he’s been keeping busy with Battlefront—but another modder (Josh Romito) has stepped in and done pretty much the same thing. Only his mod is available right now. Via Mixed Digital, the mod—called The Pinnacle of…

Tick Tock Isle, a “cute game about a guy who fixes clocks” that we first saw in 2012, is now out! It’s $3 on Steam
Paladin Danse, you seem familiar. The gruff voice, the commitment to duty, the giant sci-fi armour…where have I seen you before? Oh, right. This mod by Trashlizard brings Danse’s Pixar doppleganger, Buzz Lightyear, into Fallout 4 by way of some custom power armour. All you need to do is set Dance to be your companion,…
Having just learned how to code in VBA, crruzi thought the best way to practice would be to go and make a video game. So he went and made XCOM. In Excel. It’s not the entire game yet—the tactical battles are working, with the strategic stuff still under construction—but come on, it’s Excel There’s even…
This year’s Dreamhack Winter show in Sweden—the biggest LAN party in the world—featured not one, but two cosplay competitions. One was specifically for League of Legends cosplayers, while the other was for…everyone else. Though it looks like the League outfits were also allowed into the general competition. The competitors were listed uncredited on DreamHack’s site,…
Hey, that mask looks a little weird, I wonder what’s unde-OH MY GOD Mileena cosplay by LyonegraCostuming. Extra cool is the fact the outfit was made for a con, which she walked around in all day covered with fake blood and holding that severed head.
Track: Whales | Artist: Hail Mary Mallon | Album: Bestiary Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.
Say what you will about Halo 5 overall, but if there’s one thing Microsoft and 343 did not screw around on, it was putting together a roster of very talented concept artists to work on the game. The end result is mixed—I think the last two Halos have suffered visually from a confused identity, torn…
Reader TheGoodMortysent this in, and I thought it was cool enough to share: he’s built a Fallout 4 house that, rather than being shaped a giant deathtrap/dick, is just a…really cool house, with no detail left unattended to. Take a look. Everything is just there as it should be if someone actually lived here, instead…
There’s a Ghost in the Shell “VR experience” that’s being worked on. It was at the Tokyo Game Show, where Toshi checked it out, but there was no footage available for everyone watching at home. Now there is, and what’s more, it’s interactive. The VR experience—it’s an on-rails video tour, not a game—will run for…
In 2013, Amazon told the world that they wanted to start delivering stuff straight to your backyard, using drones. It seemed like a science-fiction pipedream, but here we are in 2015, and they’re still working on it while waiting for the “regulatory support needed to realize our vision”. Here’s the company’s latest model of its…
Police were called to the Counter-Strike tournament at Dreamhack Winter over the weekend after a fight broke out backstage between DOTA 2 player Jonathan “Loda” Berg and esports journalist Richard Lewis. A statementreleased by the LAN party—the world’s biggest, with over 20,000 in attendance—says: During the afternoon today at DreamHack Winter 2015 there was an…
