In early 2013, 53 million people were actively playing Zynga games. Twelve months later, that number has dropped to 28 million
Reader Pierre, a fan of Assassin’s Creed cosplay, has gone to the trouble of making an outfit for the series’ latest hero, a character we’ve barely seen and know nothing of. A little crazy, perhaps, but you’ve gotta admire his dedication! Especially since he went to the trouble of getting to the actual location depicted…
OMOCAT isn’t just a radart person. She’s also making a game, one that you should check out if you like some other game called Earthbound. She’s doing the art, writing and directing the game, while getting some help with stuff like music. The game’s called OMORI, and is based on an old comic/character who’s basically…
I have played many a golf game in my life. I had never, until yesterday, played one that described itself as “a physics based first person exploratory mini golf game set in a steampunk alternative universe”. I’m glad I did. Despite being early code, available on Steam’s Early Access service, I had a blast with…
Adam Duncan is a director at 12 Field, the animation studio behind the cinematics for the gorgeous Armello You can see more of Adam’s work at his personal site To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save them as wallpaper), click on the “expand” button…
I hate being in the ocean. Shallow beaches, I can handle, but the deep sea terrifies me more than spiders, snakes and birds who can talk put together. So a game where you do nothing but drown in open water is not my Game Of The Year candidate. But Sortie En Mer isn’t supposed to…
When Nintendo said the next Ace Attorney game would be “totally different”, they weren’t kidding. The Great Ace Attorney is the newest entry in the legal drama series, and in a change of place it goes back in time to Japan’s Meiji period, putting you in the shoes of one of Phoenix Wright’s ancestors. It’s…
This isn’t just Fallout cosplay. This is Fallout LARP, a group of dedicated fans in the (where else) Czech Republic taking to some crummy old buildings and role-playing their own post-apocalyptic adventures. The 2014 edition will take place in August; these pics (taken by Tomas Felcman) and videos are from last year’s event. As you…
Just in case you forgot how coolSuper TIME Force looks, here are some screens. Some of them have dinosaurs in them. The game’s out on Xbox 360 and Xbox One…sometime this year. Maybe. We said “sometime this year” last year and it never showed up, so…who knows!
A traditional definition of cosplay, if such a thing even existed, would probably include some requirement to wear a costume. But you can sometimes achieve the same end result with nothing but make-up. MadeYewLook is a pro when it comes to make-up, so much so that she can transform herself into characters like Alice, the…
Ten of the guys who work on EVE Online, along with some “special guests”, are going to fight Iceland’s Gunnar “Gunni” Nelson next month. Gunnar is a UFC fighter with twelve wins (and two blackbelts) to his name. They are all going to die. It might be fair if it was 10 vs 1, but…
Saul Espinosa is a concept artist and matte painter who has worked on everything from video games to tabletop RPGs. You can see more of Saul’s art at his personal site and ArtStation page. To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save them as wallpaper),…
Call of Duty and Assassin’s Creed are the kind of games with season passes. Offers where you pay a lot up front then get access to all that game’s DLC down the line. It doesn’t sound like a very Nintendo thing to do, does it? Oh, but it is. Nintendo is now offering a season…
OK, so he doesn’t have a heavy cloak and half-a-dozen weapons weighing him down, and he’s not being chased by the local constabulary, but this guy still does a damn good impression of Assassin’s Creed’s trademark climbing. I’d always figured the game’s creators took a few liberties when it came to the speed with which…
This isn’t the Kerbal Space Program. It’s the Polish space program. I don’t know if this is some new trend or just what a select bunch of bored Polish kids do to pass the time. I don’t really care. All I care is that this is science as entertainment. In this first video, we see…

Nate Hallinan is a concept artist who has worked not just in games (for companies like Microsoft) but also on film and animation projects. You may know him best, however, for his pieces depicting “realistic” Zelda characters. You can see more of Nate’s work at his personal site To see the larger pics in all…
After a somewhat quiet reveal last year, Korean MMO Black Desert has been blowing socks off for the last week with its character creation system and ambitious design. This clip, showing the game’s enormous world, isn’t helping people be any calmer about the whole thing. What’s important about this isn’t just the fact it looks…

The guys at Man At Arms, besieged with requests to make Jake’s sword from Adventure Time, finally caved. They did an awesome job recreating it. Then an even better one testing it out. I love how they make everything so glossy, to really give it that cartoon look. Also, neat touch with the themed destruction…
