At a gaming community event in Ugandathe other day, the organisers thought it’d be fun to strap an Oculus Rift headset to one of the security guards. He was not ready. It’s easy to laugh, but I sympathise. My first turn on the near-standard rollercoaster demo nearly had me doing the same thing, and left…
Track: Who (feat. Leaf Dog)| Artist: Jam Baxter | Album: The Gruesome Features Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.

Jet Set Radio cosplay is best cosplay. Cosplayers are Cap’n Nugget & aznsensation
I’m seeing this, and all I can picture is that this is what the show would have looked like with $100 million and some modern computers behind it. Cosplayers are VandorWolfand twinfools. Photo by Stary-dragonlover
It’s easy to forget that with a fighting game out soon, a 3DS RPG on the way, and Persona 5 after that, there’s one more Persona game on the release schedule. This is Persona 4: Dancing All Night’s TGS trailer, and if you’re wondering why it’s been a little quiet lately (compared to the other…
Sometimes, a mobile game has a ratings prompt so gross it compels fans to get genuinely angry. And other times, a mobile game approaches the necessary evil with the humour it deserves.
Every year, Britain’s Royal Observatory in Greenwich (yes, of Mean Time fame) holds a competition recognising the very best photos people take of space. This year’s winners include a giant horse and an accidental video game tribute. The best “deep space” photo, below, was taken by Bill Snyder. If you’ve ever heard the term “horsehead…
Australian Jack Cooksey was the first person in Perth to get a new iPhone, making him one of the first people in the world to get a new iPhone. So he was interviewed on TV. And it all went wrong. Struggling with the lid of the box, and no doubt nervous at being the subject…
We first told you about Rakuenlast year, but with the project nearing release there’s now a proper in-game trailer.
This trailer for the new Yakuza game was actually shown first during Sony’s pre-TGS press conference, but has only today made its way online for general viewing. Enjoy, then, another fantastic trailer for a likely fantasticYakuza game that we’ll probably never get to play in the West because Sega.
So, remember Mike Wrobel’s amazing portrayalsof the cast of Game of Thrones as bad 80s and 90s stereotypes? A group of cosplayers went to Dragon Con dressed as all of them Adam Albert took the images, which are so good they even get the original poses right. [via Fashionably Geek]
Long gone from the retail side of things, Harmonix’s Rock Band has nevertheless lived on for the past few years thanks to the studio’s maintenance of the Rock Band Network, the online community where people could buy, create and share music. Sadly, that service is now winding down. In a post on its community forums,…
Not two months after that impressivetest footage “leaked”, we now have word that a standalone Deadpool movie is going to be a thing Tim Miller will direct, and while Ryan Reynolds hasn’t been confirmed to star, come on. Ryan Reynolds will surely be starring. Interestingly, in the same Hollywood Reporter article it says that the…
The League of Legends World Championship is one of the biggest prizes in esports. Given the field’s strugglesto be taken more seriously – even as it draws in bigger crowds and bigger bucks – this trailer for the event seems a bit out of place. While it’s a slick piece of production, it also plays…
Remember last year, when Dirk Loechel showed us a size comparisonchart of pretty much every starship you could think of? Turns out there were some missing, so he’s gone and made what he says is his final update. It’s so impressive it makes the mind boggle. So many ships, so many comparisons, so many pub…
I’ll warn you all, I’m still mulling over the possibility of turning this “cosplay” blog into a “Fire Emblem cosplay” blog. Cosplayer is Calssara, photos by Midgard1612
Here’s a Sonic costume for Felynes in Monster Hunter 4G. That is all.
Bloodborne has a new TGS trailer, made up almost entirely of gameplay footage. It is…everything you would hope for/expect from a new Bloodborne trailer. It also has an American release date of February 6, and this collector’s edition, if you really must
Here’s a new, long, cinematic trailer (well, one of the game’s cutscenes) for Metal Gear Solid V. The quality of this vid isn’t the greatest, captured as it is off a livestream of a Tokyo Game Show stage event, but it gets the job done. Well, visually at least. We’ll swap in an English-language version…
