Ario Murti is a freelance illustrator from Indonesia. I’m loving how clean and poster-y all his stuff is, but that Darth Vader redesign in particular is just the fucking coolest. You can see more of Ario’s work at his personal site and ArtStation page To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if…
Sony has spent the day reminding people that it’s the 20th anniversary of the original PlayStation’s launch in North America, and that’s cool, but let’s not forget that today is also a special anniversary for another old console. On September 9, 1999, the Sega Dreamcast was released in the USA. While it’s sad that the…
Chris didn’t think much of Mad Max. I, on the other hand, am having some fun with it, though it might help that being an Australian who already lives in an interior wasteland I’m a little closer to the source material than he is. There are two little touches in particular I’m appreciating, both of…
Here, just in case you ever needed an unauthorised audiobook adaptation of the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie (via Attract Mode).
This is The Departed. It’s not a real game. Not yet, anyways. But even as a concept, little more than a collection of a few pieces of concept art, this is very much my fetish. It’s a personal project of Lap Pun Cheung, who by day works at Goodgame, and is equally inspired by Ni…
We got talking about Rocket League the other day, and started wondering: who is driving those cars? I mean, it’s easy to assume that they’re remote-controlled, but there’s no actual proof of this, nor reference in the game’s presentation. So maybe they’re not remote-controlled. Maybe someone is driving them. Maybe it’s you. Maybe bears. Maybe…
Loads of people have cosplayed as characters from Metal Gear over the years. But these guys are, I think, the very best of them. That’s a big statement, and one which I’ll admit can only be based on cosplay I’ve actually seen myself, so if you think I’ve missed something extraordinary,let me know (or comment…
Mario, carts and GTA V. It’s almost everything you’d ever need, all in the one video game. OK, so this video isn’t perfect—it’sjust a Mario mask, not a complete mod that adds his fat little arms and legs—but it’s good enough, especially since it also shows off a modified cart for some Mario Kart action.…
Track: Youth Of America | Artist: Melvins | Album: Electroretard Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.

You can see more of Yuriy’s work at his personal site andArtStation page To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save them as wallpaper), click on the…
Artist James Franzen entered the Pokémon Art Academy contest, and hey, he was one of three winners for North America! Nice one, James. In addition to internet fame, though, he also got a super sweet prize: 100 copies of an actual official Pokémon card featuring his art. They’re the only 100 copies, so…yeah, all these…
Many games feature guns. It’s a shame so many of them can’t feature them properly. Like, a gun isn’t just an outlet for player commands, a thing that shoots other things at things. A good video game gun should give something back in return: a sense of heft, or power, or satisfaction, or even all…
Dunkeyis both better and worse than you at Metal Gear Solid V WARNING: SOME SLIGHT TINY SPOILERS IN THE VID MAYBE DEPENDS HOW SENSITIVE YOU ARE
Destiny’s concept art is just…ungh. There’s so much quality, and in such volume, that for fans of this kind of stuff it’s easily one of the best games in recent years. For those fans: you can now buy $280 “high end” prints of images done by Jesse van Dijk, Jaime Jones, Dorje Bellbrook, Ryan deMita,…
Ever wonder how much it would cost you to attend every big anime convention in the United States in a single year? No, me neither, but the numbers are still interesting! Constructing a hypothetical anime super-fan who lived in Chicago, Rae Votta at The Daily Dot decided to find out, and tallied all the major…
Games that build their own dungeons don’t just throw a bunch of rooms together. This Gamasutra post by Starlight Academy developer Adonaac (featuring animations by TinyKeep developer Phi Dinh) explainsone way that a game can not just procedurally-generate rooms, but more importantly, have it actually work The short version: it’s magic. The longer version: it…
Dustwind got announced over the weekend. It’s a “post-apocalyptic tactical RPG”, so Wasteland/Fallout fans, looks like this one is for you.
Photographer Jason Laboy and a whole bunch of cosplayers took to the streets of New York recently for a shoot that featured everyone from Batman to Daredevil to Spider-Man. You can see more of Jason’s photos at his website The cosplayers involved were *deep breath*: Nightwing Daredevil Spider-Man Batman Armor Batman Spider-Gwen Deadstroke Batwoman Scarecrow
So fluffy, so excellent. This is Chelsea Mills, aka Talaaya Cosplay, beneath the M’aiq The Liar suit. We’ve featured her amazing work before, but that was armour; with winter getting closer this looks much more practical. Like the Metroid costume, there was some 3D printing involved here, with M’aiq’s face made of plastic before being…
