BMO From Adventure Time, Brought To Life
Oh my god. I need this in my life. I need this BMO. This creation, which was built by Bob H, is probably the closest thing out there to a “real” BMO. It has all the different facial expressions BMO makes, it can play video, it can sing. UGH, it’s so adorable. Now if only…

Ten Things You Might Not Know About Sonic The Hedgehog
Trivia time! How much do you know about gaming’s speedy little hedgehog? Perhaps you already know, for example, that his shoes are partially based on Michael Jackson’s boots in the song Bad, and you might even know that Michael Jackson worked on music for Sonic 3. Oh, but these facts by Alltime10s also get a…

Final Fantasy XIV on PC vs PS3 vs PS4
It’s time for a graphical showdown, MMO style. If you are curious about the different versions of Final Fantasy XIV, particularly when it comes to the visuals, then you should watch this comparison video by IGN. To me, it seems like the differences between all the versions aren’t too pronounced—but obviously, the PS3 version doesn’t…

‘Attack on Titanfall‘ Would Be A Horrible Combination
Good thing Titanfall doesn’t have actual titans in it—that seems like a recipe for disaster. And by “real titans,” I mean the type of titans you’ll find in Attack On Titan. You know, the man-eating giant humanoids? Yeah, those. Those types of titans would be bad news, as this mash-up by happyhour shows. I think…

The Ultimate Cosplay Hero
Cosplayers work hard to bring your favorite characters to life—but that doesn’t prevent things from going wrong come convention time. In fact, it’s not uncommon to experience small disasters when wearing a costume out in the wild. And that’s exactly where Captain Patch-It comes in. Discovered in Supanova Melbourne earlier this year, Captain Patch-It may…

Frozen Should Have Ended Like This
Sure, Frozen is a lovely tale about sisterhood and love…but it really didn’t have to go down like it did in the movie. Elsa didn’t need to be secluded from everyone, she didn’t need to hide her powers! Had the movie actually embraced Elsa’s powers the entire way through, then the movie might’ve looked a…

Battlefield 4 Bug Can Kill You When You Try To Shoot
Talk about game-breaking: apparently, if you happen to have a revivable dead body standing between you and an enemy in Battlefield 4, there’s a chance that downed will eat your bullets—or worse, will bounce something dangerous like a grenade or an RPG back into your face. If you’ve been having trouble killing people in Battlefield…

Somehow, Sailor Moon Characters As The Avengers Works
Imagine, for a moment, that The Avengers weren’t the Marvel heroes that we know and love—and instead, they were Sailor Moon characters. Okay, I know that sounds bizarre but…just stick with me here, okay? Turns out, the mash-up would work pretty well—at least, if we’re going off the Sailor Moon x Avengers renditions drawn up…

A Breakdown of The New Smash Bros. Mode
Based on what we’ve seen of Smash Run, the recently-revealed multiplayer mode in Super Smash Bros. where players traverse dungeon-like levels and collect power-ups, it looks like the 3DS-specific mode could be a blast. The smaller details hidden in the Smash Run footage—which GameXplain break down in the video above—only solidify that notion. Here is…

The Big Thing You Might’ve Missed During Last Night’s Game of Thrones
They say the devil is in the details—that’s certainly the case in Game of Thrones, at least. If you haven’t watched the latest two episodes of Game of Thrones, and if you don’t mind discussion of what will probably become a big plot point in future episodes, you should stop reading now: this article contains…

50 Frustrating Moments Everyone Experiences While Playing Games
Escort missions. Not being able to pause when you need to. Never having a line piece appear in Tetris. There are a ton of little aggravating things anyone who games will experience, many of which BuzzFeedPop compiles into one montage. Which of these is the worst, in your opinion? Or do you have any frustrating…

Why The Ending of Every Pokémon Game Is Garbage
You go through the trouble of collecting all 8 badges and defeating the Elite Four—and in some cases, sometimes you even try to catch them all. But what for? Pokémon games sometimes treat you rather poorly after doing all that work, when you think about it. Sure, new areas and quests open up, and in…

Even Boring Chores Look Good In This Beautiful MMO
We’ve seen the character creation system, as well as some of the combat featured in Black Desert, a stunning-looking Korean MMO. But the game also features stuff you can do during your downtime—and it looks like the developers are putting care into small details. You can milk a cow. You can fish. You can trade.…

From Clothespin To Mini Crossbow In Just A Few Steps
Who knew you could make so many different weapons with clothespins? Turns out, if you have three clothespins and some rubber bands lying around, you already have everything you need to make a mini crossbow. You’ll also want some matches for the (potentially flammable) ammo, of course—though, as CrazyRussianHacker says, you’ll have to be careful…

Iraqi Bootleg Game Covers Are The Best Kind Of Ridiculous
While piracy is the pits, you gotta love bootleg covers: they mash up all sorts of things that either make no sense, or somehow make the source material even funnier. In some cases, they even make you wish the game advertised on the cover officially actually existed, instead of whatever pirated game is actually in…

Unannounced characters. New, unexplained items. Possible cameos. Small details you might’ve missed. The Smash Bros. themed direct we watched earlier this week had a ton of stuff jam-packed into it, much of which you can’t catch unless you pick apart some of what we were shown. After analyzing Greninja, GameXplain is back with a video…

Corrupted Half-Life 2 Is Full Of Nightmare Crab People
The limbs. They never end, the limbs. It’s like the characters in this glitched out playthrough of Half-Life 2 are related to Slenderman or something. Heck, even when the characters don’t have elongated limbs, the strange way they react in this Vinesauce video is hilarious. What in the world is Alyx Vance looking at? Where…
