Brock Baker is a man of many voices. In this case 151 of them. Like the dude says, he doesn’t exactly fit the demographic of an actual Pokemon voice actor, so it’s quite the achievement. If you want to see more of Brock’s work, here’s a compilation of Simpsons characters he took a swing at…
Track: Get Your Gun | Album: The Fifty Year Storm | Artist: The New Law Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.
Mostly because it doesn’t actually shoot anything. It’s just a life-size replica. One that brings the N7 Valiant sniper rifle out of the game series and into the real world. The bulk of the rifle is molded, with a few parts carved from wood. This isn’t the first rifle props builder Zander Brandt has constructed…
SNOT is a building term in LEGO that stands for “Studs Not On Top”. It can be a pain to plan, but the results – which hide the brick’s trademark studs – are often worth it. Especially when you’re building a Star Destroyer that’s over two metres long This behemoth was put together by Jerac,…
Kaptain Brawe was an adventure game I liked very much. There is now a Kickstarter for Kaptain Brawe 2.

Dmitry Klyushkin is a Russian artist who works at the Saint Petersburg branch of Saber, the developers behind Inversion and TimeShift. I love how he’s able to switch between gritty, complicated stuff (like his Cryptids work) and a colourful cartoon style so effortlessly. You can see more of Dmitry’s work at his Facebook page and…
As cute as they are, and as childishly innocent as the world they inhabit may seem, it’s always worth keeping in the back of your mind the fact that people eat Pokémon A fantastic article on Modern Farmer looks at this secretive and unsavoury practice, drawing from both precedent (Slowpoke Tail) and conjecture (there’s not…
I’m pretty sure that, bacta tanks and protocol droids aside, I’ve never seen a Star Wars character take a proper bath before. So for all I know, this is normal. And if it’s not, at least now we know why Tk-421 wasn’t at his post. We’ve got Vavalika, DobbiSallozare and CH-Design to thank for the…
The best thing about the new Mario Kart game is the replay mode. Through smart use of character focus and camera angles it brings a little narrative to each race. In this case, a simple overtaking becomes something more sinister. That stare. So cold-blooded. You can watch the full clip that this was taken from…
The conclusion of three years of work, this is FamilyJules7x taking us on one hell of a musical journey, as he thrashes out metal versions of the theme songs to most of gaming’s greatest games. It’s quite the feat musically, sure, but I’m actually more impressed by the amount of research that went into this.…
This is “work-in-progress gameplay footage” from Mighty No. 9, the projectthat’s a new Mega Man in all but name.
Nintendo has released some pretty nice Wii Remotes in recent years, but their Wii U controller lineup is nowhere near as eye-catching. Continuing the work they’ve done with the Xbox One and PS4, then, here’s Evil Controllers with a line of custom Wii U Pro Controllers. Some are in custom colours, others skirt dangerously close…
Sketch Dailies is a website/exercise where every single day, artists from around the world – many of them top professionals – get together and contribute drawings based on a theme. Yesterday’s theme was “Link”. While some took it as a chance to simply bring their favourite character to life, others got a little more creative,…
It’s been announced that publisher Future has plans to close a number of its video game sites, among them CVG. Games websites open and close all the time, and people losing their jobs is always a sad thing, but this one hits particularly hard because of CVG’s long history. A history longer than any other…
Some savvy use of a cape to hide the wearer’s real legs elevates this General Grievous cosplay from “impressive” to “holy shit”. He’s a member of the UK Garrison, a British branch of the 501st.
Ben Hibon is an artist who has worked across advertising, shorts and feature films. But it’s his gaming work that’s really interesting. In 2005, for example, he directed some of the in-game cutscenes for Killer7. In 2007 he directed the Heavenly Sword animated series. More recently, he’s directed the reveal trailer for Fable: Legends. BTW,…
THQ closed down for good over a year ago, but the company’s old corporate HQ remains, and in that time nobody has moved in to clean out all their old stuff. Games, posters, E3 prizes, the works, it’s all just sitting there. Redditor Soulessgingr works for a company that recently moved into the same building,…
AMD and Nvidia have for years been locked in a struggle for dominance in the graphics card market, but this week that competition spilled over into something a lot nastier. Instead of competing over specs and release dates, AMD’s Robert Hallock has told Forbes that Nvidia’s Gameworks program – which lets developers implement a range…
Wolfenstein is a game I like very much, a game that in spite of its rough edges and occasional tonal missteps is so full of charm and character that you can’t help but put your arm around its shoulder and ruffle its hair every time you see it. That charm doesn’t come from the time…
