Kim Kardashian is coming to video games. In exactly the manner you would expect. Kim Kardashian: Hollywood is on its way for iOS and Android. Note that the objective of the game is to “create your own aspiring celebrity and rise to fame and fortune”. Why become famous for something you’ve actually done when you…
What if the Tenchu series had learned some new tricks from games like Dishonored and Mark of the Ninja? Well, it would have looked a lot like Twin Souls, which is currently up on Kickstarter
If there was one thing I took away from the overblown E3 trailer for Metal Gear Solid V, it was that kinda creepy part where Big Boss rubs ashes all over his face. Naturally, then, we already have cosplay of it. These pics are from Japanese cosplay superstar Omi Gibson. And before you complain about…
Lumino City is a video game, but it’s unlike almost any other video game you’ve ever played. There aren’t any “graphics” here (well, aside from the character), just a real, miniature world made of “paper, card, miniature lights and motors”. It’s a visual trend that lived and died briefly in the 1990s with games like…

At the right angle, this replica Final Fantasy chocobo looks real. For over $600, though, it had want to! Built by MiraCrafts in Germany, each chocobo is made entirely by hand out of stuff like fur, felt and glass. They’re also “Size fitting for actionfigures!”, which is about where I start reaching for my McFarlane…
Half-Life 2 is starting to show its age, which is fine, because it is ten years old. Not that this will stop us looking at this animation video and wondering what it would look like with some more modern touches. This animation reel is the work of James Benson, someone who we actually featured a…
Messing with Steam’s code, no matter how harmless the intentions, is something Valve obviously takes pretty seriously
Xenonauts is out! It’s a love letter to the original XCOM (not the recent remake), meaning those who felt the 2012 version was a little light will want to check it out.
It’s one of the most iconic lines in cinema history, but if you’re reading this website the odds are high you’ve only ever heard it said in English. Let’s change that. This clip features a few duplicates (from different recordings of the movie), but covers everything from Japanese to Portuguese to Hungarian. If you’re the…
Four friends lay down a challenge. They walk into a dollar store, can spend up to $5 and have to make a cosplay outfit with what they’ve bought. The results are…well. You’ve got to say they’re impressive given the price cap, moreso when you look at the costumes they’re attempting. Iron Man is pretty funny,…
In Bearzerkers, there is a mad panda on the loose. You play with three other friends, and need to be the one who doesn’t get trampled. As the devs put it, “you don’t have to run faster than the bear to survive, just faster than the person next to you.” Continuing the long-overdue resurgence of…
Hey, it’s Penny! The last time we saw Penny, she was playing Dark Souls II. This time around, she’s playing something a little more suitable for three year-olds. If you’re reaching for the subtitles within the first ten seconds, remember that a) she is three and b) she is an Australian three year-old. And I…
This isn’t technically a screenshot, since it’s a lot of screenshots stitched together to form a panorama, but still. The effect is stunning. It was put together by reader Fox. Thanks Fox! You can embiggen the image by clicking the “expand” button in the top-left corner. Note that the game also looks rather nice in…
I’m imagining countless thin old men on expensive leather couches pondering the responses to this for years to come. BadMiiversePosts [Twitter]
Remember Google’s Pokémon April Fools gag? There was more than just map-searching behind it, because those who took part and captured every single one of the critters are now being rewarded for their efforts. Reddit user tinygrump got sent this from Google last week. The letter is nice, but the business cards are priceless (seems…
In good news for Game of Thrones fans, or fans of Aquaman who want the guy to get a little meaner, there are reports that DC’s underwater superhero will be appearing in the Batman v Superman movie. And he’ll be played by the same guy who played Khal Drogo. While it hasn’t been announced by…
