Man At Arms’ Tony Swatton has forged all sorts of nerdy swords. It was only a matter of time before he turned to Final Fantasy—specifically, Cloud’s iconic sword. And boy howdy, is the Buster sword huge and unwieldy. He says it’s one of the most ridiculous sword blades he’s ever made—which, after seeing him make…
I’ve never met a person who likes Mario Party, the digital board game featuring iconic Nintendo characters. I mean, I know people who do like the games exist; we’re up to, what, Mario Party 9 now? Someone is buying these things. But nobody in my circles likes the game. A copy always finds its way…
If you stop and think about it, Booker DeWitt’s life is kind of a mess. And you know what works great for reality TV? People with messy lives. This reality TV take on BioShock Infinite by timtimfed, then, is kind of perfect. Mind, while funny, this video is riddled with spoilers. Don’t watch it unless…
Alex Onsager created Pokemon Fusion—a website which lets you splice together the sprites of two different Pokémon, allowing you to create a fresh, possibly horrifying combination—a few years ago. The website isn’t new. This past weekend, however, Tumblr artists took it upon themselves to create artistic renditions of their favorite fusions. The results are fantastic.…
If OKCupid was a dating site for cats, you’d probably find these types of creepy felines on there all the time. Sometimes, not so different from the creeps you might find on the site anyway.
While not a direct confirmation, NeoGAF noted that during the latest Major Nelson podcast episode, Aaron Greenberg, chief of staff for interactive entertainment at Microsoft, seemed to imply that whatever is shown during the Xbox reveal will be out this holiday. The assumption, of course, being that they’re going to show the next Xbox during…
Slow zombies may be a cliche, but I’d take them any day over having to figure out how to survive against super agile, parkour zombies—like the ones in this video by ronniestreetstunts Though maybe they’d be too busy showing off their flippy moves to actually pose a threat? Hmm. Zombie Parkour – The Flipping Dead…
Marawa is the “world conquering hoola hoop master”—according to her website. She can hoop up to 133 hoola hoops at the same time, and is basically kind of amazing with hoola hoops. She also likes Street Fighter. Hence…this kind of absurd video. Dat mega hoop combo at about a minute in. Wow. Wow. And hey.…
Well, you know how things are out in the road. Sometimes you just, uh, really need to catch them all? … Listen. Having an Ultraball for a gear shifter on your car is awesome, okay? And Redditor browner87 made one for his car by a modifying a cue ball and aluminum. You can see the…
Check out the Robotic Boogaloo update on Team Fortress 2—it just launched, and it includes 57 new items. These items were all made by the community, which is awesome. The Team Fortress blog writes: This update is 100% created by the TF2 community. And when we say everything, we mean everything—the in-game content, the update…
Here’s a silly take by Freddie Wong on what would happen if we had a dog for president. In this reality, all cats are eradicated until only one cat is left. The Last Cat. Naturally, the last cat on Earth is also a rather cute cat. And naturally, there’s also a group of select people…
This batch of recently green-lit games looks fantastic, and not just because it includes the game development simulator where piracy battles piracy. Let’s take a closer look at the upcoming games that will eventually release on Steam, shall we? Bleed “An action platformer focused on stylist, acrobatic dodging and fluid, challenging gameplay.” Game Dev Tycoon…
Dark, a shooter where you play as a vampire, still looks as cool now as it did when we initially saw that it wasn’t about being a sparkly, sensitive bloodsucker. After all, you will eat your enemies to regain health. You will teleport. You will become invisible and stalk your prey. You will hypnotize your…
Imagine if the most annoying parts of the internet—spam emails, viruses, things that exist to steal your identity—were real people. Real people trying to get into your house. Ugh, no. Things could get ugly quick, as shown by this video by HapstanceFilms. Well, until the porn lady comes around. Then you won’t even realize you’re…
Many of us get kind of teary-eyed when thinking about how Mass Effect has allowed us to transfer Commander Shepard across three games over the last five years. That pales in comparison to Pokémon, which, barring the early games, allows you to transfer creatures for over a decade across many titles—a feature which blogger Cunzy1…
It’s no secret that female armor in games can sometimes be ridiculous and unrealistic. The Repair Her Armor Tumblr recently put together a list of thirteen types of ridiculous female armor you come to expect in MMORPGs—the commentary being less serious than it is for fun. “Don’t take it too seriously,” they write. “But I…
Team Fortress 2′s scout class has a secondary weapon called “Bonk! Atomic Punch“. A tumbler of the item went for sale on the Valve store last week, and today Reddit user Rajorface uploaded pictures of the ‘warning label’ on the Tumbler. As you might expect, the fine print is ridiculous. Here’s a picture so you…
Shin Megami Tensei IV, the upcoming role playing game by Atlus, is a game about samurai. The protagonist is a samurai, actually. That means you have two mandates: to take care of the demons (would this be an SMT game if that weren’t the case?) and to keep the peace. Also probably more than those…
Here’s a neat speech for Remember Me, the dystopian game where a corporation manages to own the memories of nearly the entire population. The speech is delivered by Antoine Cartier-Wells, founder of that corporation—and listening to him talk about memories, it’s not difficult to see how easy it would be to sway public opinion on…
In the Olympics, the Jamaican bobsledding team is famed for beating out countries who had a number of advantages over the Jamaican team—like winter coats and bobsledding tracks for training.
