The Flappy Bird MMO Is Mesmerizing

Flappy Bird may be gone, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still play it—with hundreds of other people at the same time, to boot. Introducing FlapMMO! Now you and hundreds of other strangers can fail repeatedly at finagling a bird between a few pipes. Most people don’t seem to get past the second set of…

The First Day of Steam Tags Is Both Funny and Sad

Sometimes, people come together to do wonderful things. And sometimes, people come together to do terrible, silly things. When it comes to Steam’s new tagging system—which is currently in beta—it’s a mix of both. Yesterday, Valve introduced “Steam Tags,” a system which lets users label games with a few words or phrases. Most of the…

Realistic Deku: Remember the realistic Zelda enemies by Nate Hallinan? Well, now Hallinan is back with this, an interpretation of “what real Deku might look like living deep in the forest.” Neat.

Blind Card Shark Masterfully Cheats Like No Other

Richard Turner may not be able to see, but that doesn’t mean he cant destroy you when it comes to cards. Rightly so: he’s spent years of his life practicing card tricks for up to 20 hours a day. The way he does it is fascinating: according to CBS This Morning, Turner has an extraordinary…

Maybe A Pokémon MMO Wouldn’t Be As Awesome As We Think

Okay, let’s say Game Freak decides to take the plunge and finally give us the Pokémon MMO that so many people clamor for. It would be amazing! …or so we hope. While obviously lots of things about a Pokémon MMO would be great, it’s kind of funny to think about the crappy things that could…

See If You Can Spot The Camouflaged Snipers In These Pictures

At first glance, there’s nothing remarkable about this picture. Just some trees, right? Well actually, there’s a sniper in hiding in there, waiting patiently for their target. Do you see it? Right by the center of the picture, by the log on the ground. No? Here, let Vice point it out for you: That’s a…

They Climbed One of the Tallest Buildings in The World Barehanded

I hope you’re not afraid of heights—then you’ll want to steer clear of this video of two bold men climbing the Shanghai Tower. Do you know how tall that building is? It’s 650 meters (which is 2132 feet, if you’re curious). That makes it the second tallest building in the world—and these guys climb it…

Now Here’s A Titanfall-Themed Xbox One That I’d Buy

Sleek, classy, and minimalist: it’s hard for me not to like this Titanfall-themed Xbox One. If nothing else, it’s definitely better than the mock-up that was floating around in a rumor dump recently. Here are a few more shots—you can expand the picture, if you’d like: Nice, right? The Xbox above belongs to Reddit user…

You Did It, Internet. Goat Simulator Is A Real Thing That You Can Buy.

Goat Simulator wasn’t meant to be a game played by the public—it was just the product of a game jam where the devs were playing around with programming stuff. But when the internet saw footage of the game, almost everyone agreed: we need to have a game that lets us mess everything up as a…

Mystery Pokémon Found Hidden In X & Y’s Code Is Star of Upcoming Movie

Officially, there are 718 known Pokémon…unless you count the three mysterious Pokemon found in X & Y’s code, that is. While we reported the existence of unannounced Pokémon back in November of last year, it wasn’t until last night that we started hearing details about what the deal with these Pokémon is. Obviously, if you’d…

Around the world, people use different ways of saying that they beat a game, Gamasutra finds. It’s kind of fascinating. What words do you use?

Final Fantasy VII’s Boss Music, Played By Floppy Drives

Anything can be an instrument, people—including a whole bunch of floppy drives! Sixteen, in this case, to be exact. (You remember floppy drives, right?) You might recognize this tune as “Those Who Fight Further,” which is the boss theme in Final Fantasy VII. Here’s the original, for comparison’s sake. Pretty close, right? Kudos to MrSolidSnake745…

If TV Channels Were Video Games…

TV channels and video game franchises might seem like a weird thing to compare, but the unlikely pairs are exactly what make these wise cracks by Dorkly so clever. It’s the sort of thing where you don’t need to watch anything on the channel referenced to know just what Dorkly is talking about—but its better…

Easy Cosplay Ideas Using Everyday Stuff

Dressing up like characters from pop culture, while cool, looks like a ton of work. Cosplay doesn’t have to be hard, though. If you’re willing to have fun with it, you can make all sorts of costumes with stuff you have lying around the house. Such is the idea behind the My Half Assed Cosplay…

Everything Wrong With The Terminator, In Seven Minutes

The first Terminator movie was pretty good, I think—but if you pay close attention while you watch it, you’ll find lots of silly and ridiculous details in the movie. Maybe its better not to nitpick….or maybe its funnier if we do. Whatever you prefer, the folks over at CinemaSins caught a ton of amusing and…

Mighty No. Alpha: here’s Keiji Inafune briefly playing an early Mighty No. 9 build—you might remember it as the spiritual successor to Mega Man. The game is not done, obviously, but its still nice to see progress!

WTF Searches: the things people Google are sometimes amazing—here are six autocompleted searches with accompanying illustrations that show just how bizarre Googling can be sometimes. For example: “Americans think Obama is a cactus.”
