I don’t really have the words to describe this ad, although it’s not official according to Ouya. Whoever made this sure tried a ridiculous way to try to sell someone on an Ouya, though. Kind of has the style of Superjail!, yeah? In any case, we’ve contacted Ouya to ask about this ad and will…

Last month, we wrote about a song that featured women who take issue with the idea of a “fake geek girl.” Naturally, these women feel that they shouldn’t have to prove their geek cred. Since that sentiment was expressed via YouTube video, people left comments—and these comments could sometimes be ridiculous. Cue this dramatic reading…
So here’s the official word from The Pokemon Company on that mysterious Pokemon image that seemed to tease a Wii U game: “There is nothing to announce at this time.

If only we never had to deal with obnoxious ragers when we play games on Xbox Live. You know, the people who lose their cool while playing games? …what if there was a reality where ragers like the kind we know of didn’t exist? Dorkly guesses they’d sound a little like this guy in this…
Earlier today, the Steam store featured a news itemwritten by a developer claiming that the Half-Life 3 internal beta had been released.

Alert! First blood. Double kill. Triple Kill. Mega Kill. Overkill. …Executed. Game over.

It might be a little grim to imagine Pokemon in the world of Attack on Titan, but, hey! Titans only eat humans, remember? That said, if for some reason the worlds collided, Goldfinch figures these would be the pairings we’d see. What do you think, who would you pair up? I’d probably put Eren with…

It’s 2013. Some people send sexts; the practice is not abnormal. But if Siri could talk freely, like she does in this sketch by Slacktory, I doubt that she’d be very happy about what people send as attachments in texts, or in Snapchats. With good reason! Welp. You could always play Dungeons and Dragons with…
