We’d been expecting it for a while now, but it wasn’t until today that the classic Final Fantasy game released on Steam. It has achievements, cloud saves, and “character boosters.” You can purchase it here.
Here it finally is, people—after being teased with a 30 second clip which few people believed would become a full-fledged show, the Swimming Anime is real. In fact, you can watch it right now over at Crunchyroll; they’re streaming it starting today. Here’s some vague info on the plot, along with some of the people…
You can’t mention Super Smash Bros without a discussion erupting about which characters should be in it. It’s all in good fun; the characters are the point of the game! But as this video by videogamedunkey highlights, dang if those conversations can’t get a bit silly sometimes. I for one would love for “Tetris,” “Vice…
According to the parents of the 19-year-old facing eight years of prison for making threatening Facebook comments, jail has been a horrible experience for Justin Carter. Maybe that sounds like a no-brainer, but reading the specifics of what Justin Carter is undergoing while jailed is kind of shocking. Yesterday, we learned that Carter is on…
We’re nearing the end of this console generation—which makes it easy to reminisce about where this generation has taken us. In the graphical department, it’s hard to deny how far we’ve come. Look no further than the Halo franchise, which has had multiple iterations this generation, to see evidence of a visual leap in the…
Online handles are important, and that’s especially the case if you’re a pro player. Your name frames how people will see you as a public figure. Maybe you want to sound threatening. Maybe you want people to hate saying your name. People think about this stuff! It should be no surprise, then, that pro League…
Pendleton Ward must really like Animal Crossing: New Leaf—why else would he play it during a Beyonce concert? Then again, the game makes sure to give you time-sensitive events; maybe Ward just had a date with a villager that he couldn’t miss. But let’s not front, many of us have done stuff like this. I…
Couple Minecraft with the Oculus Rift headset andthe Omni,that virtual reality treadmill which allows you to walk around naturally in a game, and you’re bound to get one of the most immerse experiences (currently) possible in video games. You can see what playing with that sort of set-up would be like in this video by…
You can spend a ton of time on Alex Onsager’s amusing Pokemon fusion website, trying out as many Frankenstein combinations as you can think of. Or, if you’d like, you can take a look at the work of Redditor B_Stiles, who took the liberty of making every single combination possible for you. If that sounds…
The town of OVOXO is a quaint, idyllic town. Lots of greenery. Right by the beach. It’d be perfect, except there’s one problem: I have two penguin villagers. …yeah, this is about to get ridiculous, but it’s a true story of how I’ve lost my bearings trying to get two villagers to move out of…
E3 happened a few weeks ago, but Shesellssheshells only recently finished their signature “YouTube Reacts” video on the show—which manages to capture some of the more absurd thoughts on the event. It’s as entertaining as usual—oh, YouTube YouTube Reacts to E3 2013 [Shesellssheshells]
The second season of The Legend of Korra can’t come soon enough. Fortunately there’s some stuff to tide us over, the most recent of which is a cool interactive book Nickelodeon released for free today on iTunes. It’s called The Legend of Korra: Enhanced Experience. There’s concept art, storyboards, animatics and more included in said…
The I CAN’T JUST PAUSE MY GAME, MOM AND DAD is such a cliche, I know. MachinimaPrime doesn’t do much to dispel stereotypes about gamers in this video where a gross man refuses to stop playing a game, but damn if they didn’t do a good job of showing how that situation can get extremely…
Ragdolls are fun on their own, but watching Criken2’sfriend mess around in Garry’s Mod using a Kinect looks like a blast. Something about knowing the ragdoll is acting a certain way because there’s an actual person doing the same thing on the other end, I think. It’s extra playful. The fact that Criken’s is naturally…
Also, he’s wearing a dragon mask and there’s a Daenarys look-alike just kind of standing there awkwardly in this video by squiddkidd …uh, yeah. I have no idea, although it dawns on me that flaming bagpipes are a thing. Game of Thrones Theme on Flaming Bagpipes and Unicycle – The Unipiper [squiddkidd via The Mary…
The Kinect is mandatory on the Xbox One—which means that one of gaming’s most annoying facets, entering a million codes every time you buy a new game, doesn’t have to exist according to Microsoft’s Marc Whitten. Why? Because you’d just be able to scan a QR code in! Easy. We’ve contacted Microsoft to ask if…
How badly do you want to win? Enough that you’d pay to strap on a gaming headset that shocks your brain? Maybe that sounds insane, but then again, many of the things people do to gain an edge in multiplayer games are ridiculous. You might be familiar with more ‘tame’ practices. I for instance have…
Man At Arms’ Tony Swatton is back, this time trying his hand at a weapon from Skyrim. He does his best to make it look like an orc actually made it—which means making the weapon seem as if it wasn’t made by high-power tools. ‘Cause, you know. Orcs don’t have that stuff. They’d make the…
Bossa Studios never intended for Surgeon Simulator 2013 to become a part of a Half-Life 3 conspiracy theory—the ARG puzzle found underneath a medic figurine was simply another element in the game that would require the player to use some inference. “Surgeon Simulator is a trove of easter-eggs and references, this is a big part…
Then the covers would look a little like…this! Here are the latest and greatest Dr. Seuss themed covers and rhymes from DrFaustusAU, who graced us with other similar covers in the past. This time we’ve got The Last of Us, Resident Evil, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, and BioShock Infinite—all from the last couple of months.…
