Japanese cosplayer Masazi dressed up as Raiden for this year’s Tokyo Game Show, and it is one of the most impressive cosplay outfits I have ever seen. I mean, the suit itself is enough to get hands clapping, but the work that’s gone into that motorized helmet just boggles the mind. You can see more…
Everyone remembers Age of Empires and Age of Kings, but nobody ever talks about their spin-off sibling Age of Mythology (which I think is a better game!). Ah well. Maybe they will now, since the Steam re-release of the game is getting a brand new expansion. Age of Myth—which was released in 2002—focused on three…
Blacksmoke Billy, the world’s foremost expert in GTA truck madness, returns with a series of C4+trailer stunts that just boggle the mind. Doing this once, OK, you can call it a fluke and thank console makers for including gameplay capture. But doing it a bunch of times? I shudder to think at the amount of…
The Syrian refugee crisis has become a political flashpoint throughout Europe. Some people are being assholes about it. Then you’ve got this kid, spotted at the “Solidarity with Refugees” march in London
One of the rarest Sonic games of all time is Waku Waku Sonic Patrol Car, an arcade game for kids that was released in 1991. If you weren’t in Japan that year (so…pretty much all of us), you’ve probably never played it, as it has never been released again, ever, in any format. Until now!…
Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto has just publisheda statement on the company’s Facebook page saying that Star Fox Zero for the Wii U has been delayed. Bummer. The statement reads: I made a big decision last week. We have been developing Star Fox Zero for Wii U with the aim of releasing it this year. Although we…
This is André Schürrle. He’s a very, very good footballer. A lot of people would recognise him as a star for both Wolfsburg and the World Champion German national team. This German web TV host, however, did not. Sofia Kats, from gaming channel Rocket Beans TV, was pranked by her colleagues into doing the interview,…

Here’s a weird thing. The PC version of Metal Gear Solid V, a Konami game running on the Fox Engine, looks great! The PC version of Pro Evolution Soccer 2016, also a Konami game running on the Fox Engine, is the worst. On PS4 and Xbox One, the game looks fantastic! I’ve been playing it…
If you’d told me on New Year’s Eve 2014 that my two favourite games of the next year would be a Witcher and Metal Gear title, I’d have laughed, then frowned, then walked off to talk to someone who wasn’t clearly crazy. I mean, the Witcher games were a mess! Clunky controls, confusing UI, an…
I’ve covered a lot of cosplay over the years, both on Kotaku and beyond. That’s a big reason this subsite dedicated 100% to the craft exists.Thing is, I’m not a cosplayer, so my stories and accounts have always been those of a fascinated outsider looking in. While it’s fantastic that cosplayers, photographers, videographers, props builders…
Bedlam, a game we first wrote about last year, is out on PC today. Fallout Tactics fans, this one’s for you.
This trailer forthe upcoming Ghost in the Shell FPS is giving me a bucket full of sadfaces. Brian was optimistic about the whole thing last year when the game was first announced, but he might have been the only person on earth seeing the glass half-full. This couldn’t be a worse fit for the IP.…
Put it in the trashcan. Something something compliance. *whack*. Cop is TimmCosplay, photo by Yukibun. Nice job finding a trashcan that looks just like the City 17 ones!
“This isn’t an article about the evils of free to play manipulation to get you to spend money. This is about how we can target you, because we (and our partners) know everything about you.” Some brutal reading at TouchArcade
As I type this, a computer is simulating the biggest and most destructive conflict Civilization V has ever seen. Over 60 factions are currently waging war, and the world they’re leaving in their wake is a…weird one. Battle Royale Mk II, as it’s called (the first Battle Royale died an agonising death), recently ticked past…

Behold Lucina, resplendent and thoroughly badass in action figure form. This Figma, first shown in 2013, then originally due out earlier this year but delayed for months, is finally out. Mine arrived yesterday, and hoo boy, it’s been worth the wait. She comes with two different head options, two face options, a Marth mask, multiple…
