Oliver Milas is a 3D artist working in the games business in Germany. Oliver’s take on Neon Genesis’ Asuka is awesome You can see more of Oliver’s stuff at his personal siteand ArtStation page To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save them as wallpaper),…
Space Engine is a free download that lets you fly around the universe, without any aliens or trade federations getting in the way. It was a pretty thing the last timewe looked at it, in 2011, but this new video is just gorgeous I said it then and I’ll say it now: as attractive as…
And here I was, only just sayinghow good Crusader Kings II – nominally a strategy game – was at depicting inter-personal relationships. Guess I’m not the only one who digs that aspect of the game, because developers Paradox are now going to double down on it, announcing an expansion that’s all about role-playing. Crusader Kings…
Nintendo’s Amiibo line may one day accommodate all sorts of characters, variants and in-jokes, but for now, it’s limited to a few major characters from Smash Bros. That is, if you’re sticking with the ones you can buy. Folks are already customising their Amiibo figures, painting variants based on existing characters and even modifying them…
I’m still not quite sure what I just watched. Civilization Online was first announceda couple of years ago, but this is the first actual look we’ve got at the game. And it’s…well, it doesn’t look very Civilization, does it? The fact it’s an MMO explains most of this away, especially the combat, but watch closely…
Blood Sport is the perfect name for am ambitious piece of technology: a rig that will link medical hardware to a video game, and take some of your blood whenever you’re hit. All for a good cause, of course. UPDATE – The campaign has been suspended, its creators writing:”Hi All! We’re currently suspended and looking…
Justin Costello, a prominent and well-loved figure in the Australian cosplay scene, has sadly passed away over the weekend. In addition to his own amazing personal work, Justin was also a member of Gotham’s Finest, a team that uses cosplay to help with things like fund-raising and visits to children’s hospitals. Justin is survived by…
This incredible piece of fan art is the work of Tianhua Xu, a concept artist from Chinese studio ChiYan Workshop. It’s exactly what you’d want from a Mononoke redesign/movie, no? The same outfits and spirit, only more real. Course, we should probably stop talking about this, since we might invoke the demon spirit Hollywood. You…
Stuart Brown’s fantastic YouTube series A Brief History Of Graphics starts in just about the most perfect way imaginable: “They say graphics aren’t important…but every game I’ve ever played has had them”. Running over five parts, the series takes an in-depth (but also accessible) look at the evolution of video game graphics, from the very…
MINIDAYZ, which began life as a fan-made tribute to DayZ, has quietly been picked up by Bohemia Interactive and is now hosted on the publisher’s site – for free – as an “official” DayZ title. It’s a top-down game that shares the same basic premise as DayZ – scrounge around to stay alive while fighting…
Fuck you, bird.

The link to this story was actually sentout by the official Deus Ex twitter account, and with good reason: some of the stuff Japanese pair XSENSE (artists Yoshinori Sakamaki and Taketo Kobayashi) are coming up with looks like it came straight out of Human Revolution. Using 3D printers, they’re designing artificial limbs that go way…
To Azimuth is an “alien abduction mystery” set in Alabama, circa 1978. You play both characters of a sister-and-brother team looking into the disappearance of their brother, and work your way through a story that’s heavily inspired by stuff like The X-Files. What I’m liking the looks of, though, is the detail in their recreation…
A number of artists worked on Dragon Age: Inquisition, and I don’t mean to ignore their contributions to what is a very pretty game, but I have a thing for Matt Rhodes’cartoonish style of concept art in particular. Rhodes, lead concept artist on the game, has released a ton of his work on Inquisition, and…
As we’ve seen with its patch notes, Crusader Kings II is a game that, taken out of context, sounds completely insane. The game’s forums are no different. Here’s a selection of recent thread titles from CKII’s Steam forums, put together by @shadowmar Yes, they’ve been cherry-picked, but they’re hardly isolated instances. In the days since…
Frozen’s Elsa meets WoW’s Lich King. Well, in this case, Queen. Cosplay by Chubear, photo by Darshelle Stevens. I’m surprised it took someone this long to think of this!
If your copy of Far Cry 4 on PC doesn’t have FOV (Field Of View) options, and you complained about this on a forum, you might want to go and delete your comments. Because there’s a very good chance you’ve just outed yourself as someone who pirated the game. Ubisoft Montreal creative director Alex Hutchinson…
So, a live-action Attack on Titan movie is being made in Japan. And in case the spot where it’s being filmedwasn’t enough of a hint, these new posters revealing the cast in costume show it won’t be set in the manga/anime’s medieval-ish world. Instead, it appears to be set in a more modern post-apocalyptic location.…
