God, I have such a love-hate relationship with this series. On the one hand, it’s boring, like a car brochure when it should be like a car. But then, I love car brochures. So glossy, and aspirational… The good thing about this clip is that so much of it is gameplay, reminding us that, hey,…
This weekend, Cartoon Network will be showing an animated short based on Wonder Woman. Both she and her invisible vehicle are…different. If this preview clip had gone on for 10 seconds more, and ended with a Black Dynamite cameo (or a Fu Manchu soundtrack), I wouldn’t have blinked an eye. Images, Clip From Upcoming DC…
This snap, taken at the London Film and Comic Con last week, is just…well, it’s just the best. The whole show sounds like it was the best, actually. For a convention that’s not the San Diego Comic Con, that’s one hell of a lineup For further proof of how awesome Tyrion’s actor Peter Dinklage is,…

Evo co-founder Joey Cuellar says Nintendo didn’t just want to stop Smash Bros. Melee being streamed from this year’s fighting game competition, they wanted to stop that part of the tournament taking place altogether. “They were not only trying to shut down the stream”, he told OneMoreGameTV, “they were trying to shut down the event,…
Paula Deen, who was a Food Network star until it turned out she was fond of the odd racial slur or two, does not have a video game based on her. She should, though. And it should look just like this. In case the style didn’t give it away, this was done by Paul Robertson,…
ThinkGeek is selling this…thing, which it calls “Elder Scrolls Norse Beard”. It’s a knitted beard and helmet combo, meaning it’ll cover just about your entire head. I would make jokes about mops, but if you live somewhere genuinely cold, this looks like a damn fine way to keep your noggin warm. Elder Scrolls Nord Beard…
Eva Widermann is a German concept artist who now lives in Ireland. She’s worked in the field for a decade now as a freelancer, and lists companies like Disney Interactive and Wizards of the Coast as clients.

It’s been over a year since we first covered the Tex Murphy reboot, and today, we finally get our first proper trailer for the successful Kickstarter project. What you won’t find is gameplay. What you will find is enough hammy FMV to make you think the 90s never ended.
Warmachine, the tabletop wargame that’s stealing a ton of Warhammer’s thunder, is about to get its first video game adaptation. Provided its fans can raise $500,000. A Kickstarter campaign has been launched for Warmachine: Tactics, a turn-based tactical game for the PC and Mac. Here are some of the main features, straight from the project…
Need one more reason to get excited about Pacific Rim? How about the fact there’s a poster for the movie that was done by famed Metal Gear artist Yoji Shinkawa Done as an exclusive for the 3D release of the game, while the poster you’ll see below is for the Japanese market, those in the…
So powerful has been Sony’s messaging to date with the PlayStation 4 that, despite it not even being out yet, the console already has something of a story. And a lot of that has to do with development legend and lead architect of the PlayStation 4, Mark Cerny. So reader Mark Hughes decided to get…
Not content to let the console fade away without one last Ratchet & Clank game, Insomniac have announced Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus, which will be out in the Fall and will cost $30. Insomniac are pitching it as a traditional Ratchet & Clank game, while a Vita version is yet to be confirmed.…

Version 3.1.0 U available via wireless Internet connection includes the following improvements: Improvements to Standby Functions: The standby functions will now regularly connect to the Internet when the Wii U is powered down to check…
Red 5 Studios went to a lot of trouble to make some real-life outfits based on their online shooter Firefall, so it’s understandable they went and made a live-action trailer for the game’s impending public debut. It’s just a shame that it…yeah. On the bright side, Firefall is now in open beta! It’s not technically…
OK. So this is weird. Reddit user pourmeanother77 has edited a copy of Mario 64 so that his son’s face replaced the texture on the game’s goombas. It’s about as simple a modification as you can do to a game, swapping one file for another, but when the result was “He laughed for a good…
Brandon Kitkouski, who used to work at id Software and has also done stuff for Magic: The Gathering cards, now works at a small indie studio called Hammer & Chisel, which is working on “the only MOBA designed exclusively for tablets”. That game is Fates Forever, and while there’s not much to go on at…
The last time we saw someone go the trouble of dressing up as a clicker from The Last Of Us, it was a work of art. These guys, while also impressive, are also a little more horrifying. I’m not sure whether that’s down to the costumes or the HDR, but it’s good they remembered to…
