I know, we end up posting a lot of Final Fantasy cosplay here on Fancy Pants, but that’s mostly because there’s just so damn much of it. It’s rare that a Final Fantasy cosplayer can really stop me dead in my tracks, though, so hats off to neko-tin with this amazing Lighting Returns outfit, which…
According to a report on MCV’swebsite, the UK will be getting the world’s first PS4 + Vita hardware bundle, the two consoles to be packed into the same box and sold in time for Christmas. While the bundle has yet to be officially announced by Sony, Videogamer reports that MCV’s print edition has an advertisement…
Planet Extech have a FLIR camera. That’s a camera that does fancy thermal imaging. In other words, yeah, it’s how the Predator can see stuff, and it’s also how you’re going to see some great pictures of the PS4 and Xbox One. The site had a goal in taking these images: they wanted to show…
Super Mario 3D World is a terrific video game. It’s just not a very good Wii U game. I can’t remember the last time Nintendo needed a game to be so good so badly. Super Mario 3D World is the first really big game for the company’s beleaguered Wii U, the kind of game that…

Get a look at this custom Porco Rosso display, which is as meticulously detailed as the work of the man who created the character. It’s so detailed, in fact, that as you’ll see below, you can lift the chassis off and see the frame, instruments and seating beneath. That’s always the deal-sealer with me and…
Look, sometimes when you’re in a hotel you’ve got to make do with what you’ve got. And if your 3DS needs a charge, and the only open power outlet is up there, then you use it. But…jeez, that’s precarious Ry-Spirit’s Art [Facebook, via Tiny Cartridge]
Crimson Dragon, the spiritual successor to Panzer Dragoon, just came out, but already the game is being altered after it received, well, let’s say mixedreviews. Saying he has “heard the feedback” on the game, director Yukio Futatsugi is ringing the changes, which include generally making the game easier. “I’m excited to have the opportunity to…
That’s it. It’s past midnight. The Xbox One is now on sale in North America, having gradually rolled out across Australasia and parts of Europe earlier in the day. With the PS4 being released last week and – depending on your definition of “generation” – the Wii U on shelves last year, the “next generation”…
We already know The Banner Saga is a gorgeous game, because its multiplayer mode is out and you can play it and see for yourself. But the real artistic chops are coming in the games’ singleplayer mode. As this clip shows, the game’s singleplayer mode is a lot more involved than simple multiplayer skirmishes, taking…
Spike’s Geoff Keighley uses the power of Kinect to throw the station’s coverage of the Xbox One launch event across the country. Or, tries to. I bet it sounded good on paper. If you want to follow along yourself, and haven’t already been doing so, you can catch it here
The first person to buy an Xbox One in line in New York City tonight is not the first person on planet Earth to buy an Xbox One. That honour, thanks to the placement of the international date line, went to New Zealand’s Dan Livingstone. Beating out my own antipodean purchase by a mere two…
The first man in the world to buy a PS4 meets the first man in line to buy a North American Xbox One. It’s like a Christmas kick-around in the trenches. Xbox [Twitter]
I’m picturing some poor schmuck at Microsoft accounts getting a bill for the Xbox One’s launch event in NYC tonight in a few months’ time, looking at it, then jumping straight out a window The company is going to ridiculous lengths tonight, not only taking over Times Square but doing stuff like having zombies shamble…
Time to start going through your old Magic card collection. Or paying a little extra attention next time you’re at a garage sale. A rare “Alpha Black Lotus” card, from waaaay back in 1993, has gone for $27,302 on eBay, owing both to the fact it’s rare (one of only 1100 printed) and also because…
These illustrations of Link and Zelda were done by Haruhiko Mikimoto. You may not know him by name, but if you’ve ever seen Macross, you’ll know his work. Mikimoto was character designer on the series, meaning if your heart has ever fluttered for Roy Focker, he’s the man to thank. He never worked for Nintendo,…

It’s been two years since last saw Nathan Drake. Enough time for hearts to grow fonder, start to miss the man, miss the adventures, miss the half-tuck. To help fill the void, Sideshow have a giant $160 action figure on the way. For that price you get a posable 1:6 scale Drake, accessories, weapons, crate,…
Edberg Panganiban is now selling maybe the best Christmas stocking stuffer of them all: little resin Animal Crossing figures, hand-painted to match your own character’s design. While he sells ready-made figures – all of which are pretty cute – it’s the option to have him paint your own custom guy or girl that makes it…
Unless you paidover $12,000 for one via auction, the only way to get hold of a white Xbox One console is to have been responsible for actually building the console. So this unboxing is one hell of a tease. The “I MADE THIS” is only going to get sillier the longer time goes on, regardless…
