The Diamond Dogs have arrived at the Commonwealth, ladies and gentlemen. What you’re looking at above is not a photoshop. Actually, it’s a Fallout 4 mod that lets you play as Metal Gear Solid characters, and you can download it here. To some of you, this might seem like an odd combination, but let’s be…
Celebrating Pokémon’s 20th anniversary, Game Freak’s Junichi Masuda looks back on the early days of developing Red and Green. It sounds like a tough time! Masuda notes that his computers would always overheat and break down during Pokémon Red and Green’s development, and that he personally went through four computers in six years. “I sure…
For three months, one man has been practicing Super Mario Bros. without actually looking at the screen. That work has now paid off. Watch as きらめきでどーだい clears Super Mario Bros. in 14:46…while wearing a blindfold: It’s cool to see how, exactly, he accomplishes this feat. A lot of it comes down to timing, and you…
For some Skyrim players, reading about the Lusty Argonian Maid simply isn’t enough. While Pornhub might be best known for porn that features human actors, those aren’t the only videos the website hosts. Along with cartoon porn and hentai videos, Pornhub has a fair amount of machinima—movies made using digital character models from video games.…
Under normal circumstances, there is only a one in four thousand ninety six chance you’ll find a shiny Pokémon out in the wild. Some people have played Pokémon all their lives and have never actually encountered a shiny, one of those fabled Pokémon that comes in a special, rare color. [This post was originally published…
And now, a moment for us to be humbled by our place in the universe. By now, it’s possible you’ve heard this timeless excerpt of astronomer Carl Sagan’s audiobook. Here it is again, coupled with footage of Grand Theft Auto. Somehow, it works. That’s just how on-point Duggy’s cinematography is. Now, if you’d like to…
Last week The Fine Brothers drew mass internet hateafter they announced they wanted to let other YouTubers monetize and license its “React” format shows. Tonight, they’re taking all of it back. Over on Medium, The Fine Brothers wrote the following about their short-lived “Reacts” trademark: Hello, We’re here to apologize. We realize we built a…
YouTube’s biggest star does read his YouTube comments. Surprising absolutely no one, the comments can get pretty terrible. Especially recently. PewDiePie made a video where he details the top ten comments that get on his nerves the most, and in doing so, gives people some real talk about his YouTube situation: Some things he tackles…
YouTuber ICEnJAM took sound clips of the Vault-Tec representative you meet at the start of Fallout 4, and used them to cold-call strangers. The result was hilarity. I think the best part about this is that the Vault-Tec representative doesn’t really sound like a character in a video game. Up until he mentions mutants, it…
It’s been 17 years since the original release of Pokémon: The First Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back. Since then, there’s been 19 other Pokémon movies. For veteran Pokémon players, I’m guessing that none of the newer movies match up to the original one, though. The First Pokémon Movie, for those that don’t know, is actually Mewtwo’s…
Diaries of A Spaceport Janitor, a game about “picking up trash in an alien bazaar,” looks charming as heck. Sign up for the beta here. Contact the author at [email protected]
This is everything that makes video games wonderful (and ridiculous.) In Thunderdome, not only can you compete against other players to try to murder as many humans as possible, you can also duke it out against other chainsaw bears, too. Judging from the footage, the whole ‘chainsaw’ thing makes up for not having full control…
If you’re playing The Division’s beta this weekend, you may come across this dog. The dog can die, if you happen to shoot it. So…maybe don’t? Unless you want to see a sad dog death, I guess! Kotaku’s Stephen Totilo (and Eurogamer) have verified that, indeed, the dog is mortal and can be slain by…
Maybe you’ve heard of Romance of the Three Kingdoms 13—not only has the historical strategy series been around for a while, it also has several spin-offs, such as Dynasty Warriors. Well, now Romance of the Kingdoms is tearing up the Steam charts. Based on the 14th century Chinese historical novel, the first Romance of the…
DayZ social experiments continue to delight and amaze me. The set-up for this one is straightforward. Cyborg Lizard decided to gift other players a new gun, no strings attached. What would these armed players do in response? Would they be kind? Or would they stab Cyborg Lizard in the back? I know what you’re thinking.…
Introducing New Vegas: Multiplayer, a mod that will let players venture out into the Mojave wasteland with buddies (or enemies.) While the modification of the 2010 game is still in its early days, what developers are showing off so far looks promising. Here, for example, you can watch a few different players all load into…
Today, The Pokémon Company gave us our first look at an upcoming Pokémon spin-off, Great Detective Pikachu: The Birth of a New Duo. It stars Pikachu….but not the Pikachu you’re used to. The trailer, in case you haven’t seen it: What stands out about this footage is that Pikachu is speaking actual words. Not only…
The denizens of the wasteland might as well have their very own fashion line, thanks to the powers of mods. When I originally wrote about nudity mods in Fallout 4, one thing modders felt adamant about was that they wanted body modification tools not to run around naked, but rather to put on nicer, more…
The Cut Content Police is a Steam Group with one goal: to warn people about games that have been “in some way censored due to cut, edited, changed, [or] modified content.” As we covered last year, there are a number of Japanese pornographic games that have tweaked how much nudity they actually feature,all so that…
GuitarHeroFailure says he uploaded “Bark at the Moon” to YouTube, but the song was taken down—presumably due to YouTube’s automated copyright system. As you may already know, YouTube is particularly aggro about music. It’s cool, though. GuitarHeroFailure re-uploaded the video with a different audio track, and honestly? I think this is wayyyy better. Make sure…
