Time for another big TF2 update, Valve kicking off something called “Two Cities“. There’s new maps, new weapons, new achievements.
In 1993, Britain’s Channel 4 ran a four-part documentary series on video games. The third episode was about SimCity, and twenty years on, it stands as a monument to all that was amazing about both the early 90s and antique PC gaming. Dug up today by Motherboard, it’s fascinating seeing the way the doco blurs…
Spacebase DF-9 is a game for people who think “Theme Hospital meets FTL in space” sounds like a good time. While currently still in development, an alpha of the game is playable (you pay to get access, funding further development), and even taking that into account this is hampering my ability to get work done.…
Simon Weaner is a concept artist at Volta, a studio whose artists work we’ve featured here on Fine Art many, manytimes before. He’s done work for clients like Square Enix and Blur, handling both concept art and matte painting. You can see more of Simon’s work at his personal site —- To see the larger…
When you pick up an Xbox One this week (or anytime in the near future), I hope you like black, because that’s the only colour you’ll be able to get it in. Those wanting their controllers to be a little more adventurous, though, at least have a third-party option to spice things up. Just like…
From Deadly Premonition to Dark Souls, sometimes a PC game is released that’s, well, let’s call it an unoptimised port. Which leaves fans to do the work in getting them up to scratch, and of late no fan has become more “famous” than Durante. The NeoGAF member, whose quick improvements to the above games made…
From the same guys who brought you the Star Wars bloopers trailer comes this, doing the exact same thing for The Avengers. Way to hang onto the hammer there, Hemsworth. The Avengers trailer: Derp edition [Slacktory]
I’ve got a soft spot for Maschinen Krieger, the Japanese models that are seeing their influence bleedinto video games. And it’s very sensitive to stuff like this. The images you’re seeing below are the work of Kevin Derken, who makes such badass Maschinen Krieger gear that he flew all the way to Japan to show…
Nope, those dudes aren’t giants. Indeed, the presence of humans – for scale – is about the only thing stopping this footage of an amazing remote-controlled plane from looking (and sounding) like the real thing. Thomas Bodmer, from Switzerland, builds and flies remote-control aircraft. Like this 1:15 replica of an Airbus A-380. Those four engines…
Ohio State University’s marching band did a killer Nintendo performancelast yearduring a halftime show. This year, Clemson responds.
It’s a rare thing to find a console launch title that isn’t either “meh” or “ungh”. There are a number of reasons for this, which you or I could speculate about all day long, but why don’t we see what a guy who works for Ubisoft has to say instead. In an interview with GI.biz,…
It’s funny, games like to get introspective and meta all the time, but only about other games. RetroWorldis a game about actually being a kid who plays games, and it looks just wonderful. With a visual style that makes it look like 80’s Lucasarts played to much Earthbound, the game promises to take you through…
PC Gamer have gone mad. Building a new rig for reviews and testing, they didn’t settle on components that meet today’s “recommended” specs. They went for components that meet “Thor’s Mighty Mjölnir” standards, and the results are terrifying. Using the very best gear throughout, the foundation of the rig are four GTX Titans. Four. Good…
Morning everyone! Have a good weekend? Battlefield 4 Servers Attacked Poison Undermines A Week Of Classy Cosplay What’s Inside A Video Game Control Pad Remember, The DayZ Game Is Still Coming
As the current series hurtles towards an inevitably violent conclusion, I’m in 100% Boardwalk Empire fanboy mode at the moment. So there couldn’t have been a better time for me to come across Witchmarsh, a game set in the 1920’s and featuring bootleggers, speakeasys and…the occult. An RPG with action and platforming flourishes, it’ll feature…
Sorry to interrupt this “next generation” stuff for a moment, but it’s been too long since we saw a new trailer for the first Persona 3 movie. So here’s a new trailer for the new Persona 3 movie, which is out in Japan this Saturday. Looks good, but…not enough Mitsuru. 「Persona 3」The Movie #1 fourth…
Japanese model builder むむむノ53 has ripped a veritech fighter straight out of Macross/Robotech and brought it into the real world, cel-shading and all. While he didn’t built the entire model, the paintjob he’s pulled off to mimic the animated look of the show (and the additions like dramatic hands and a Lynn Minmay) is amazing.…
Track: No Vowels | Album: Battlefields Forever | Artist: Big Business Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.
Reader Brandon Allen has put together an incredible collection of photographs, in which he’s dissected a number of famous video game controllers, spilling their guts all over a wooden table so you can gawk at what’s inside. PlayStation, NES, Dreamcast, Xbox, most of the major names are represented. Or, well, dissected. I’ve included a selection…
Come on, Poison! We were keeping things heroic, and dignified, and then you had to go and do that thing you do (But seriously, if you’re going to cosplay as Capcom’s brawler, that’s the best way to do it).
