I could see the lighter side of this Jaime/Cersei Lannister cosplay when they were just holding hands. But making out? Come on guys! You’ll start a(nother) war! Fantastic But Still Creepy Jaime and Cersei Lannister Cosplay [Fashionably Geek]
Presented without further comment. Star Wars Han Solo in Carbonite Light Switch – I will offer more by June 15th [Etsy, via Laughing Squid]
With fantastic games on offer across just about every platform, with libraries that grow more accomplished with each passing day, you might think it’s always a good time to buy new video game hardware, should you still be without one of the major systems. Mostly, you would be correct. But not this month. There’s one…
This is the first gameplay trailer for FIFA 14. Not thefancy new FIFA for next-gen systems. The now tired-looking FIFA for 360, PS3 and PC.
Sif, a boss from Dark Souls, is looking mighty fine on this mighty fine poster by artist Gibbs Rainock, who you might remember is not new to the Dark Souls poster business. You can buy this poster from Gibbs’ Etsy page. Dark Souls Poster – Great Grey Wolf Sif [Etsy]
There are very few scenarios in which I would even consider spending $1000 on a photograph of former Microsoft boss Bill Gates. This – a signed photo of Gates playing Guitar Hero at CES looking like a goofball – is one of them. BILL GATES SIGNED PHOTO 11X14 RARE XBOX WII GUITAR HERO MICROSOFT JSA…
Collectible company Gaming Heads, the same folks behind those awesome Team Fortress 2 statues, have posted a collection of photos showing how one of their upcoming pieces – Half-Life’s Gordon Freeman – is coming along at the factory. If you were expecting a fancy Deus Ex-like assembly line full of robots and clean white surfaces,…
I tried to sit down and watch Ultramarines, Games Workshops’ official animated Warhammer 40K film, a few years ago. Made it maybe 15 minutes in. It was awful. Like bad 90’s PC game cinematics. Where official projects fail, however, fan projects can be counted on to succeed. And I don’t think I’ve ever seen a…
Despite never having been to the US – he used photos and movie clips as reference – nine30 has made this incredible mod for Grand Theft Auto IV that turns the city-sized game into one giant and very not New York desert road. The mod, which isn’t yet available for download, is so long it…
Remember Me is one of those rare – and wonderfully so – games thatdivides opinion. Yeah, it’s got some iffy combat, and the platforming’s not so great. But the world developers Dontnod created for it to exist in…just, wow. The Neo-Paris of 2084 is a remarkable place, taking design cues from the obvious – like…
The mailman just dropped this off in our inbox. It’s an invitation to a Square Enix event next week, a Q&A with Final Fantasy brand director Shinji Hashimoto. Could be fluffy wish-wash. Or, given the timing, it could be a chance for us to find out just what the hell happened to Final Fantasy Versus…
If you’re new to the world of grand strategy games having picked up the gateway drug that is Crusader Kings II, may I suggest you look into this, Paradox’s big follow-up game, Europa Universalis IV. It’s lacking in Crusader King II’s intimacy, but shifts its weight by letting you control just about any faction of…
300 Heroes proves, as CrusaderCast puts it so well in this video, “there is no Mandarin word for copyright”, because it doesn’t just copy League of Legends (literally, it re-uses LoL’s textures), it makes use of as many famous characters from properties it didn’t pay for as it can get its hands on. There seems…
It takes a lot to make me laugh out loud at some video game character design. Game artist Hunter Mortenson and his wife Sadies have recently created this DOTA 2 courier, and he’s available in the Steam Workshop. His name? The Dallying Llama Courier (though sadly, it appears as though Valve has renamed him Llama…
This is not a retouched photo. It’s not a 3D model, or an actor dressed as perhaps the United States’ greatest ever President. This is a sculpture, done by veteran Hollywood effects man Kazuhiro Tsuji. It was part of a display held earlier this year at the Copro Gallery in Santa Monica. Tsuji, who moved…
I don’t give a damn that this trailer for World of Warships – an upcoming game from the same guys behind World of Tanks – has no gameplay in it. What it does have are lots and lots of battleships. Battleships are awesome. More video games need battleships. Developers, note: more games need battleships.
Emerson Tung is a concept artist who has worked on properties like League of Legends, Warhammer 40K and Transformers, while having also done some stuff with tabletop giants Fantasy Flight Games. He’s currently an artist at mobile gaming company TinyCo. You can see more of Emerson’s stuff at his personal site To see the larger…
What you’re looking at here is Super Chain Crusher, a shmup (shoot-em-up) whose native resolution of 3200 x 800 is so long most modern video hardware cannot properly display it. So its developers encourage you to play it across two screens. OK, so you technically can play it on one screen – and you can…
I think the Super Nintendo, at least the Japanese/European model, is one of the most beautiful pieces of consumer electronics ever made, from its colour palette to its timeless design. Just because the original is timeless, though, doesn’t mean we can’t get an update for these more modern times. Like this one, by Colombian designer…
Nintendo has, smartly, mostly ignored Hollywood following 1993’s Super Mario Bros. movie. So we don’t have a Zelda movie. Many people think, smartly, that this is a good thing, because there’s every chance a Hollywood adaptation would be awful. But there’s a small chance it might not be. I mean, if fans (in this case,…
