Surprising nobody, the Wii U version of Project CARS has been cancelled.
PS2 classic Ico is a stark, minimal affair. You hold a girl’s hand, you run around a bit. But it wasn’t always that way! Some recent file examination and translation work has uncovered that there was supposed to be a lot more story and exposition in the game. Courtesy of translator GlitterBerri and some file…

Valhalla will be publishing the PC version of the game themselves (which will be free-to-play), while Nintendo will be bringing it to the Wii U.
The Last of Us has an incredible soundtrack. Gustavo Santaolalla’s score really gets to the heart of the game: it’s not about zombies and scares, it’s about horses and the road, and the music reflects that. It’s a must-have already, then, but in this package it’s just ungh. Artists Olly Moss and Jay Shaw teamed…
Track: ‘89 Dope Spot | Artist: Nacho Picasso & Blue Sky Black Death | Album: Stoned & Dethroned Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.
Transformers: Human Alliance was an OK arcade shooter that came out a couple of years ago. It was a pretty standard lightgun affair.

Not only is this the first year you’ll be able to play as women’s teams in FIFA 16, it’s also the first year they’ve made the cover of one of the biggest video games on the planet. Nicely done, EA. At least three markets—the US, Australia and Canada—will have women on the game’s box, all…

Have you ever wondered what would happen if a Capcom artist’s two favourite things were Khal Drogo and Asura’s Wrath? This is what would happen.

Fanime 2015 went down in May, and photographer Viktor Vatici has been kind enough to send in the fantastic pics he took at the show. All cosplayers with credits are listed below. If you know any of those not listed, let me know! Chell by Meagan Marie Gordon Freeman by Kyle Taylor, aka The Real…
Bandai’s new 1/72 scale Y-Wing model is a thing of beauty. The detail on it is incredible, but I’m digging the accessories especially. The laser blasts are cool, the Death Star surface tile is a neat touch, and I love how it includes multiple pilot designs, depending on whether you want to rock a New…
First Rust messed with your skin. Then your dicks. Now you might not have a dick at all, even if you wanted one. The indie survival game, which has recently been toying with the idea of randomly-assigned character appearance (the player’s raceand penis size are chosen for them by the game), is soon going to…
