You may be asking yourself, why would anyone strap on an Oculus Rift while riding an actual roller coaster—why not just enjoy the experience of riding the roller coaster? Good question. And yet these guys snuck an Oculus Rift on a a real ride anyway. Edmond O’Driscoll and Jonathan Forder concealed the device under their…
With Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire releasing later this year, fans have already started excitedly speculating about all the third generation Pokémon that might get a mega evolution—and this is that we don’t officially know if the remakes will have any. But who cares! Speculating is fun. NateWantsToBattle gives us his personal wishlist…
Today, Microsoft released a trailer that, at first glance, may seem like it’s simply a video that showcases the slick design of the Xbox One hardware and interface. And really, that’s mostly what it is. But if you pay attention at the :51 second mark, you catch a quick nod to Halo 5: It’s just text.…

Remember Steam’s tag feature, which lets users label games with anything they’d like—provided the tags aren’t abusive or spoilery? They’ve struck again, and this time, their target isCall of Duty. If you look at Call of Duty’s Steam page right now, you’ll come across this (click to expand to see the text clearly): Notice the…
Sailor Scouts are normally tough gals, what with the fighting evil by moonlight thing, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be even more badass. Case in point: this wonderful punk Sailor Moon cosplay. These pictures taken by Vivid Vision show a group of friends at the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo—and yes, there are individual…
They said Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire would never get remade. That people should just stop clamoring for them, that all the places that people saw “evidence” of a remake was just silly, desperate. It was beginning to look like Ruby and Sapphire remakes were Pokémon equivalent of Half-Life 3*. And yet here we are: Hoenn…
There’s totally a chance that Birdly, a device which simulates flying like a bird, could be an amazing experience. But that doesn’t make this elaborate set-up, which includes a fan, a scent machine, and the Oculus Rift, any less ridiculous (in a good way). I mean, look at this thing. Don’t get me wrong, I…
Watch Dogs might not be out yet, but that sort of thing never stops Minecraft players. Minecraft players will recreate everything, remember? Including, yes, trailers. This recreation of the dramatic reveal of Watch Dogs comes from Sky Does Minecraft, and it’s pretty good: The original trailer, for comparison’s sake: And now to wait for the…
Zoe Quinn doesn’t just make heartfelt, experimental games like Depression Quest.She’s also pretty set on becoming a cyborg, judging from the cyberpunk as hell implants she’s gotten over the last couple of years. (Update: full disclosure, Quinn and I are friends.) On her left ring finger, she has a magnet which is coated in silicone.…
Did you think sports games would be safe from the industry-wide insistence on turning everything into a first person shooter? I hope not. Yes, Supraball might add guns to soccer, and that might sound like an awful idea—but hey, it genuinely looks like it could be fun, judging from this trailer. From the game’s website:…
What do the people in the world of Pokémon actually read, you think? My guess is that they’d read the same things we do, only their versions of classic books have Pokémon in them. The reason I’m giving this any thought at all is because yesterday, Nintendo tweeted out stuff with the hashtag #pokemonbooktitles: Naturally,…
To the unobservant eye, Goat Simulator is simply about destroying things and causing chaos as a goat. But there’s more to it, according to the developers. (Ibrisagic is a developer at Coffee Stain Studios, the folks behind Goat Simulator, in case you’re curious.) Well then. That’s…surprisingly heavy for such a goofy game. Mind, I’m pretty…
We’ve told you a lot about The Stomping Land, the great survival game that looks like a cross between DayZ andJurassic Park. But now, with this new trailer, you can see a lot of the stuff we’ve written about before in action. You can see how various dinosaurs act, for example—each one has its own…
Red version? Blue version? Naw. How about both? Check out this awesome modded Game Boy by Vadu Amka which mashes together all the versions of the original Pokémon games into one handheld device. Yes, even Yellow—and I’m not just talking about how that’s the cartridge inside the Game Boy. If we look at other pictures,…
As of a few days ago, the fastest anyone has beat the original Halo: Combat Evolved is in one hour and thirty eight minutes—it’s a new world record held by Andrew “goatrope” Halabourda, and you can watch him nail it here. To be exact, the run takes 1:38:57. The previous world record for this run…
Introducing “Captive Minecraft,” a Survival gametype that uses achievements and the world border to great effect. You start on a 1×1 box, and every achievement you get widens the world border by half a block in all directions. “As your captive world slowly expands, you gain access to more and more resources,” a post on…
The Team Fortress 2 that we know and love underwent a ton of changes during development—enough that it’s fascinating to look back on the rich history of the game, if not the franchise itself. DYKGaming/Normal Boot’s informative video series is back, this time touching on awesome Team Fortress trivia such as: Which class is based…
File this under “don’t try this at home, kids”—this is the sort of thing that’s probably best experienced via YouTube. Because opening a bottle with a bottle opener isn’t extreme enough, Slow Mo Lab decided to use a chainsaw instead. Frankly, I’m surprised the entire bottle doesn’t just explode on contact. It’s a freakin’ chainsaw!…
It was only a matter of time, really—and while this mod takes the “dark” part of Dark Souls to heart, it’s still a joy to gawk at. The mod, which you can see in action above, comes from WickfutENB—and you can see how it compares to “vanilla” Dark Souls II in the same footage, too.…
