As is becoming custom every time Rockstar releases a new Grand Theft Auto V trailer, the Tumblr gtavtrailercomments has rolled up its sleeves and lurched through the very best internet comments available on the new media And by best, I really mean worst. Oh internet. gtavtrailercomments [Tumblr]
Red Dead Redemption never made it to the PC. Grand Theft Auto V hasn’t been announced for PC. Such sadness. But what’s this? A personal computer-shaped rainbow on the horizon? Rockstar’s Leeds studio recently posted a job opening for somebody to “help bring our latest titles to the PC platform”. “Working together with the other…
Only hours after Nintendo blocked fighting game tournament Evo from streaming Smash Bros. Melee matches, the publisher has swiftly reversed its decision. A notice on SRK reads: I’ve just receive word from Nintendo that the Evo Smash Bros. Melee stream will be allowed to proceed. We will be restoring the original stream and tournament schedules.…
There’s enough smiling here to remind you we’re talking speculative fiction here. And just enough science to make anyone who’s played The Last Of Us a little bit nervous. Could We Be The last Of Us? [vsauce3]
On July 30, D-Pad Studios – they of “please hurry up and finish Owlboy” fame – will be releasing Savant for the PC, iOS and Android. They’re calling it a “Little summer game of yore”. It looks rad. I’m guessing the genre is “Rustic Elevator Death Ride”?
Unless you grew up with it, or were born with the mechanical aptitude to quickly adapt to the rigorous timing and dexterity required, getting into Street Fighter can seem daunting Try as they might, Capcom haven’t been able to do a good enough job teaching players themselves via tutorials, so it’s left to helpful souls…

Over the last few years, animator Mike McCraw has been doing these short Power Rangers clips. Which are basically the sketchbook of a 90’s kid come to life. A warning: you might end up watching these all day Mike McCraw [Site, via Super Punch]
GameStop has been taking PS4 preorders for a while now, with nary a mention of “limited stocks” or word on first-day guarantees. Seems the time has come to bring that little deal to an end, because you can’t preorder the system from the retailer any more. A notice on GameStop’s site says they’re “sold out”,…
You’re about to see a working NERF sentry gun. A proper sentry gun, like one you’d see in a video game or movie, which can automatically track you then start shooting until you die (of amazement). It was built by Instructables user BrittLiv, and comprises a NERF Vulcan gun, a stand, a motor and a…
After hardware and the games themselves, your save files are probably the most important things in video games. If you couldn’t save then resume your progress, well, most modern video games simply wouldn’t exist. So you’re going to want to look after them. These days, thanks to cloud saves and reliable hardware, that’s easier than…
There are those who feel that Civilization V, as it was first released, was a little thin. The game’s first expansion, Gods & Kings, addressed some of that criticism. Its second, Brave New World, transforms the game into one of the best the PC has ever seen. It does the things you’d expect from a…
Finally. Just as every calendar year sees a new FIFA and new Madden, 2013 sees the release of Robot Vacuum Simulator 2013, which follows…Robot Vacuum Simulator 2012. You can download and play it right now. Which I’m assuming you already are, since that’s one of the best trailers I’ve ever seen. Even if you don’t…
Apple’s App Store turns five this week (it first opened on July 10, 2008), and to celebrate, many of the biggest and best apps – including games – seem to be going on sale for, well, nothing. Among the games currently available for free (the sale isn’t official yet, so people are finding more games…
Over the weekend, the SourceRuns Team, comprised of fourteen players, got together and finished Half-Life 2, from beginning to end, in 1:27:51.09. Which, as you’ll see in the video above, is madness. It’s also a new world record. Apparently it took “over 600 days of hard work”, which means they deserve the title they gave…
You know it’s a good week for cosplay when you can see outfits from Persona, The Hobbit and Final Fantasy XII, all in the one place. Other highlights? That BioShock Splicer mask wasn’t just made as a one-off by the wearer, he sells them fromhis Etsy store. And that Korra shot…phew. To see the larger…
Karakter design studio in Germany were brought on by HBO to do the concept art for pretty much every VFX shot in the show’s second season. Including the epic Battle of Blackwater. Having made a name for themselves doing video game work, on series like Killzone and The Settlers, they won themselves an Emmy last…
The Animal Crossing psycho gag runs about as far as it can run in this mod, which turns your Skyrim character into the star of Nintendo’s mortgage simulator. Then gives him a giant sword. It…might be a bit much. Some Smash Bros. fisticuffs are one thing, but throat-cutting and disembowelling? Even Resetti would get upset.…
I mean, I know it’s a driving game, a genre that’s long had the luxury of looking better than other games, thanks to the fact they only have to render a track and some cars. But still. Look at this This isn’t some fancy cinematic trailer. The game, which is playable right now for its…
Blizzard concept artist Laurel Austin, who we’ve showcased on our Fine Art feature previously, just released this image she drew for the Diablo III launch last year. It’s late, but we can always wait for Barbarians vs Goatmen. Barbarian and Goatman [CGHub]
