Today’s glitched-out delight from Vinesauce isn’t a nightmare, like it tends to be.Having Sonic star in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time instead of Link—and making sure the character model goes fast—is more of an absurd hilarity. But that’s okay. We already got an unsettling corruption ofOcarina of Time. Besides, would nightmare glitches give…
There’s been a lot of talk recently about the (unfortunate) boob jiggling in Lightning Returns Meanwhile, games like Mount Your Friends quietly launch onto Xbox Live Indie Games, initially passing under the radar here at Kotaku. If you haven’t seen this game before, going by the description alone, it doesn’t sound so ridiculous. The Steam…
Looking at pictures of ProgV‘s mech, you can see some obvious hints here and there of its former life as a car—the headlights, for example. What’s less subtle is it’s awesomeness. “I disassembled my dad’s old Nissan truck which he doesn’t use anymore,” ProgV wrote on deviantART. One car wasn’t enough to make this beast,…
Here’s a montage of some of Cube World’s bosses by hiim0n…aren’t they cute? DECEPTIVELY CUTE, ’cause they can kick your butt.
News is that next month, select GameStops across the US will distribute shiny rare Pokemon: Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina according to Siliconera.The idea, in a way, is cool and yet indicative of an absurd problem Pokemon has when it comes to legendaries. Let me put this into context: every generation, a new set of legendaries…
There are two situations that make it it painful to go back to an older game: when it’s something you only liked because you were a kid and didn’t know any better, and when you play a highly praised game. The first is all about rose-tinted glasses: I know I’ve had my heart broken by…
There are many unlikely combinations in this world. Chicken and waffles. Sparkles and vampires. Also, this parody by Rawb09 of Coolio’s song, Gangsta’s Paradise and League of Legends. I’m baffled these things work so well together, at least. But they do! Here’s the classic, Grammy-winning original song by Coolio, if you’d like to compare: Yordle’s…
Then he’d probably look a bit like these renditions by TanBurn. The two above are, of course, Link in the style of South Park and Link in the style of The Simpsons. To be fair, Link has appeared in a couple of the following TV shows—The Powerpuff Girls, for example. Still, it’s neat to see…
I spent the last week glued to Netflix, watching one thing: Jenji Kohan’s Orange Is The New Black. It’s a show about a well-educated and sheltered white woman named Piper Chapman who has to serve a little over a year in prison after transporting a suitcase full of drug money for a drug smuggler. Not…
What would Pokemon’s Professor Oak dream of? Having a complete Pokedex, perhaps? According to jaxamoto, he’d have slightly NSFW dreams of adventure with none other than terrible explorer Ash Ketchum. Also, Oak would have an accent. Listen, it’s a nightmare. Just go with it…stick till the end, too, there’s one final joke in there. Pokemon…
We’ve compared a DualShock 3 and a DualShock 4. We’ve sized up the PS4 against a bevy of objects, like a Macbook. We’ve even gotten intimately close with the PS4. But what about a PS3 versus a PS4? PlayStationAccess delivers on the size comparison, if you’re curious. To sum: the PS4 is far from the…
Left 4 Dead 2 mods aren’t new—we’ve written about some cool ones before—but this game by Hurricane333 manages to cram an absurd number of good mods together. So many mods, in fact, that this video is bonkers from the first second we see a raptor holding a baby. That’s just the beginning. Then just about…
Shouting in Skyrim—a special ability that Dragonborn have—isn’t a thing that exists, obviously. But if we were to make it real, getting a sound strong enough to physically move someone, like the Fus Ro Dah shout does, would mean suffering devastating effects according to Vsauce3 We’re talking like, the type of shock wave that would…
Here’s a neat project by disbala, who is retexturing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess to look likeSkyward Sword—the newer Zelda game in the franchise, which features visuals which aren’t as realistic. The project has been going on for a couple of months now, with the video teaser appearing earlier this month. No word on…
Once you log enough hours into a multiplayer game, you start noticing patterns. Things people like to do in games, sure—but also what kinds of people you’re likely to find in any given game. This image by CANADIENxBOSS summarizes everyone from Halo and Minecraft and just about every game in-between perfectly. Click on “expand” to…
Frankly, I’m surprised it took this long for someone to do a superbly nerdy take on the ever-catchy Blurred Lines. Don’t we have likea billion nerdy takes on Call Me Maybe? Thankfully (?) NateWantsToBattle brings us this rendition of popular pop song Blurred Lines, and it’s all about competitive Pokemon battling. I can’t decide if…
Here’s something that sure escalated quickly: neoGAF user sphinx noticed that at current, there are an absurd number of Spanish websites that report some variation of the idea that Mario and Luigi are gay. Upon further inspection, it seems like it’s dozens of sites who believe this. So, uh, how did that happen? You’d think…
David Hayter might not be returning for the new Metal Gear Solid, but he will be lending his voice to Shadow of the Eternal’s lead character. And, oh, hey! The spiritual successor to Eternal Darkness also has a new Kickstarter campaign. Earlier this year, Eternals launched a crowdfunding campaign—only to later suspend it. The reason?…
To put that number into context: most of the longest novels ever only have a little over a million words in them. And this fan-fiction has nearly three times as many words as that. Yeah. It’s kind of unreal. Maybe you’ve heard of it? It’s been around since 2008, after all. If not, it’s called…
People might feel inclined to do everything with their phones—I mean, heck, there’s an app for breaking up with people now—but one thing you probably shouldn’t try to do is play Dungeons & Dragons with Siri. Cause if you do, like Slacktory tries to here, things probably aren’t gonna go so great. Bummed he didn’t…
