LowSpecGamer, the same guy responsible for turning 2015’s most beautiful game into an eyesore, has done the same thing to Rocket League. Only this time is actually looks kinda cool. This isn’t a mod, per se, nor is it a lowering of the game’s actual settings. Instead, it’s the result of tweaks to the game’s…
Nintendo has told IGN that its Nintendo Direct videos, lovable PR blasts that became synonymous with former President Satoru Iwata, will continue, though “we have no details to provide now on who will be featured”.
Dragon Con—one of the biggest nerd shows on the planet—went down earlier this month, and three of the best cosplay photographers around were there to take some incredible shots. Those photographers were Anna Fischer, Kayhettinand Dave Yang. You can see the best of their pics below. Oh, and if you recognise (or are) any of…
The world has never been short of Metal Gear Solid action figures. So it takes a lot for one to stand out and make me think, OK, that’s a really nice figure. Just look at him! The sculpt (which goes stylised without deviating too far from the source material), the articulation, the detail…amazing. That paradise…
This Spike Lee Joint™ (or, trailer for it) is a little too dramatic in places (well, all the places), but whatever. This kind of singleplayer madness is what I want from all sports games. Not just NBA2K, but FIFA and Madden too. And also Mario vs Sonic at the Olympics.
On September 30, both the Wii U and 3DS versions of Super Smash Bros. will be getting a neat new addition: a stage based on Mario Maker. It looks very cool. As you can see, Maker’s giant hand comes in at the start of the fight, whips up a level and then you go at…
These pics, by artist Gustavo Viselner, are homages to classic films. And they’re good ones at that. But to me, they’re teases of great games that could have been, but never were. OK, so the excellent Alien 3 and Aliens vs Predator came close to that Ripley one, but I’m imagining these as adventure games,…
I mean, why wouldn’t a dragon ditch Skyrim for Los Santos. There’s way more stuff to blow up. This cute clip is by Pinkman. And no, I don’t know why the Dragonborn is wearing such a naff jacket either.
You might have seen a trailer for this project last year, when it was looking for money on Indiegogo. Well, it managed to raise that cash and meet its post-production goals so Hardcore, a movie shot entirely from a first-person perspective, is on its way. The movie debuted over the weekend at the Toronto International…
Then get clicking on that box. Loudly, if you’re at work. And be sure to keep going past 100 coins. I’m guessing this is for the game’s 30th birthday celebrations. Add it to the list of neat little surprises the search giant seems to be able to conjure at will for video game stuff.
Tor Frick is an artist at Machinegames, developers of the most recent Wolfenstein titles. We’ve actually featured his work before, when he came up with a very cool way to make use of textures back in 2012 In addition to Wolfenstein, Frick has also worked on games like Gears of War 3, Far Cry 3,…
I’ve never really liked Metal Gear games, but I am loving Metal Gear Solid V so far. Not for the story, though, or the stealth. Mostly for the balloons. Not since Armed and Dangerous’ Land Shark Gun has a video game tool been so funny and practical at the same time. You can steal jeeps!…
Ilya Dykov is a freelance artist from Belarus. One of his latest projects is The Uncertain, a game which until today I had never heard of but which looks pretty cool! It’s about a robot exploring a world where humans have all died out. Which is generally a good time. You can see more of…
Phew. Is it, uh, is it getting a little hot in here? WARNING: SPOILERS FOLLOW I can’t believe I just had to type that about what’s in this post. Anyway, so there are some scenes in Metal Gear Solid V featuring the scantily-clad Quiet, and in them, she…postures. They’re contentious! Some people think it’s pervy,…
This video is full of interesting Witcher 3 facts, but one in particular stands out: over 500 voice actors worked on the game across seven languages.
Michelle Sleeper makes props and armour for cosplay projects. When she was introduced to Laura, a left arm transradial amputee, they got together to do something awesome. (top pic by Norman Chan) Having originally planned to build Laura a T-800 arm, so she could cosplay as “Arnie at Miles Dyson’s house”, when Mad Max was…
Project X Zone 2 is a strategy RPG that’s a little nuts. It stars characters from Mega Man, and Resident Evil, and Devil May Cry, and even Yakuza. Most excitingly, though, it will also star console mascot and personal role model Segata Sanshiro. Don’t know who that is? Here’s a primer. And a video. Video…
What an age we live in. Cross of the Dutchman is a game (yes, it’s not just papercraft) that came out on Steam today. Here’s the official description: Cross of the Dutchman is an action adventure game based on the true story of the folk legend ‘Pier Gerlofs Donia’. The story takes place in medieval…
Best tip: put the guns away. Use your fists. Well, fist. (via juza-the-cloud). Dying at that last guy with the flashlight.
Nintendo’s Japanese website launched a big update for Super Mario Maker today, and part of includes a neat surprise: a free pdf version of the fancy little coffee table book that otherwise comes with boxed copies the game. The relevant section on the site can be found here, and once you get there, click here…
