Just when I thought I was sick to death of seeing these kind of things, along comes a Tolkien tribute to blow my socks off. This is Tolkien’s Hobbiton, recreated in Minecraft. It’s at 1:58 scale, on a map that’s 3500×2500 blocks in size, and is terrifyingly “accurate” not just in how it sticks to…
TANKS! Still with me? Cool. Pavel Petrenko is an artist at Wargaming, where he’s worked on World of Tanks. Here, then, are some awesome 3D models of tanks that he’s built for the game. You can see more of Pavel’s stuff (he’s also worked on Crysis 3 and Borderlands) at his personal site and ArtStation…
Arkham Knight, a PC game so brokenthat its publisher Warner Bros. had to withdraw it from sale, was released in June. It’s taken until September, but a patch to (hopefully) fix it is rolling out now. The update popped up earlier in the week for beta testing, but WB announced today that it’s now available…

It is now September 2015, and he is still going Profiled recently by Guinness for their records book/marketing catalogue, there’s a progress report from April 2015 in there, saying that as of five months ago he’d crossed 2,097,152 blocks.

Traffic counter jokes.
Fallout 1 & 2 were isometric games. Fallout 4 is not. But because the first two were a big inspiration for Stasis developer and artist Chris Bischoff, and because Stasis is also an isometric game, he’s gone and imagined Fallout 4 as one too That fluttering sound you hear is millions of people’s hearts wishing…
A reader sent this over today, and at first I thought it was a mod. Nope, turns out it’s a glitch in GTA V, one which sucks pretty much all the textures and detail out of Los Santos, leaving one of the best-looking games on the planet looking more like something you’d find on an…
This isn’t the first time I’ve seen cosplayers make this joke, but it’s definitely the best. Sub Zero is Danquish, Elsa is Deanna Sarkar, photo by Martin Wong (via Dorkly)

We’ve featured his work before, but since he’s had a complete portfolio refresh since, tonight was a good time to circle back around! You can see more of Efflam’s work at…
Steam sells games, Steam sells software, Steam sells short films, Steam sells documentaries. And going by a SteamDB listing, Valve’s service is also about to start screening at least four big movies. The listing (viaxPaw @ NeoGAF) suggests that all the Mad Max movies are coming to Steam, from the 1979 original to 2015’s Fury…
