Cripes, It’s A Glitched Out Donkey Kong From Hell
Now, as much as I adore Donkey Kong 64 as a cherished game from my childhood, I can’t really say the game has held up well over time. I’m not trying to replay it or anything…well, unless I could play a glitched out version of it, like Vinesauce does here. It would be too hilarious…

Some of The Best Cosplay From Dragon Con 2013
This year’s Dragon Con—a large fantasy/science fiction convention in North America—is over, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy the awesome outfits worn at the show. Thankfully, MLZStudio recorded some of the best cosplay of the con, and damn if it’s not impressive. Got a favorite? I’m really fond of the gender-swapped Prince of Persia…

Hilarious Vine Compilation Will Be The Best 8 Minutes of Your Day

Xbox Facebook Account Smokes Whatever James Franco’s Been Smoking
Zelda? Not a Microsoft franchise, as I’m sure you know. Not that that stops the official Xbox Facebook account from telling you all about it…and also James Franco. For some reason! This sort of thing isn’t quite an isolated incident—before, the Xbox UK account has posted about The Last of Us. That’s also not a…

Players Freaked Over Achievement That Requires Them To Kiss Boys
Achievement hunters will do anything to get their precious 1000G…but that doesn’t mean they’ll always be happy about it. Case in point: Bully‘s “Over The Rainbow” achievement, which requires players to kiss other boys for 20g. Cue homophobia from reluctant players over on Xbox360achievements. A sampling of the responses over at Xbox360achievements: Yes, most of…

That Breaking Bad Ringtone: If you watched last night’s episode of Breaking Bad, you may be wondering to yourself, what was Jesse’s curious ringtone? It kind of sounded like ‘Twerk‘ by Lil’ Twist ft Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber to me. Actually, it’s a real Hello Kitty Song by Simona Barbieri Mckenzie…which makes sense, because…

Game of Thrones + Star Wars Would Be Awesome. Here’s Proof.
Darth Khal, huh? I don’t know about you, but that’s a pretty badass name, I think. Here’s jbcasacop‘s rendition of a Game of Thrones and Star Wars mash-up, which happened after jbcasacop couldn’t decide which franchise to draw. Why pick when you can combine the two together for awesome effect? You can see more of…

The Original 151 Pokemon, Redone As Monster Hunter Icons
Why did Gryphon-Shifter combine Monster Hunter and Pokemon? Heck, why not? The distinct icon style works fantastically with the Pokemon from Red and Blue—so much so that I kind of want to see all Pokemon in this style! Alas, for now, the first 151 will have to do: You can see more of the artist’s…

Breaking Bad Prank Reminds Us All To Not Put Personal Info Online
Last month, Aaron Paul—the actor behind Breaking Bad’s Jesse—asked his Twitter followers what their thoughts on Breaking Bad were. “Let me talk you thru it. Number, please,” he wrote. As you might’ve guessed, excited fans jumped on the possibility of talking to Paul, and readily tweeted their numbers out. Enter ZeoStorm, who called some of…

Nightmare Before Christmas-Themed Minecraft Creation Is Incredible
Wow. This themed Minecraft roller coaster is not only amazing as a construction, but it also makes me want to watch The Nightmare Before Christmas. It’s the song, I think. But in any case! The coaster took two and a half months to build according to nuropsych1, and it was made on the Xbox 360.…

Maybe A Dark and Gritty Pokemon Wouldn’t Work
Oh, sure, many of us would love to see Game Freak try for a more mature Pokemon, just to see what it’s like. But could it even work? Or would it just seem ridiculous to take the elements of Pokemon and try to make them dark? I’m starting to have my doubts after looking at…

I’ve Watched A Stranger’s Baby Grow Up Over YouTube. Life Is Weird.
Two years ago, “bobaepapa” uploaded a video of a baby that was super excited to see her mom, but also waaaaay too sleepy. It was an insanely cute combination—so much so that the video became viral hit. You might’ve watched it, and then never thought about this baby again. Well, I’ve kept watching—in fact, it…

Oh No, Attack On Titan Shouldn’t Be Nearly This Cute
At its heart, Attack On Titan is incredibly unsettling. I mean, it’s about giant humanoids eating humans for seemingly no reason whatsoever; of course it’s unnerving. So you look at this animation by riseken—which recreates some of the early plot of Attack on Titan—and you’re just like, wow, it should be wrong to have the…

More Pokemon Drawn From Memory, Without Erasing
First blayzeon proved that a faulty memory could be a funny thing by showing us what the Pokemon from the first two generations look like if drawn without looking at a reference. Now they’re back with third gen Pokemon drawn from memory, and it’s just as silly as the first time we saw the project.…

I Can’t Believe Valve Messed With The Chickens In Counter-Strike
What an outrage. Forget Half-Life 3. Truly, Valve spit in the face of their fans yesterday when they introduced changes to the most important part of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive: the chickens. The horrendous changes, asdetailed by the patch notes: [GAMEPLAY] – Chicken changes based on pro feedback: — Reduced chicken sounds dBs and volume. —…

In These Colors, The 2DS Actually Looks Pretty Sexy
Looking at these mock-ups of the 2DSby MYE, I can’t help but wonder if the reaction to the handheld would have been different had these actually been the colors that Nintendo unveiled the 2DS with. I mean, I can’t be the only one that looks at these and thinks they actually make the 2DS look…

When The AI Flips Out Like This In A Game, It’s Hilarious
It’s almost like the AI in this clip of ArmA III by APPAMANIAC has a hive mind—and the hive mind decided that instead of getting to safety or something, they should all just…pile up around the dead body. Like they’re trying to protect it or something! It’s silly, but amusing. Best AI Ever! (Arma 3)…
