It seems that Los Santos is still hiding some never-before-seen easter eggs. As discovered by Twitter user @KarmaIngram1, there’s actually one more secret phone number in GTA V that you can call. Dialing 1-999-367-3767 connects you to “Black Cellphones,” which for whatever reason triggers an explosion, and it also changes the appearance of your cell…
Bless the leader of the Minutemen, and his never-ending supply of endangered settlements. He just wants to make the world a better place. And yet… For Fallout 4 players, Preston Garvey’s dialogue has become a running joke. Anybody that’s played the game has probably fallen into the trap of talking to Preston Garvey, which inevitably…
For most players, getting killed immediately after entering a new area in Fallout 4 is enough to reconsider playing that level at all. FischiPiSti is not like most players. There’s a quest in Fallout 4 called Out of the Fire, and it asks you to clear a level full of “Forged” enemies. These folks come…
The wasteland has terrifying secrets, the likes of which you’ve never seen before. A darkness has awakened. Witness it before it swallows the Commonwealth whole: This hilarious horror was brought to us via Pastaspace, and you can download the mod here.
Most of us probably walked through the Glowing Sea, Fallout 4’s most irradiated area, decked in Power Armor or a Hazmat suit. Because we’re wimps, apparently. Watch as stanleyx2002 braves the entire Glowing Sea without a single piece of armor or weapon. Judging from the commentary, Stanley didn’t really think he could do it! Somehow,…
Now this is dedication. Terry Garrett lost his sight when he was ten years old—so he learned how to game in a different way. Instead of relying on visuals, Garrett started using sound to make his way through video games. After much practice, this method allowed him to beat games like Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee. Ocarina…
Picking a faction in Fallout 4 is the most agonizing choice in the entire game. Turns out, deciding the fate of the Commonwealth is very difficult when every group vying for dominance is awful in its own, special way. Let’s look at them one by one, shall we? The Minutemen Leader: Cardboard Cutout Masquerading As…
A few days into 2016, we’ve already got frontrunners for “questionable choice of the year.” Hey, at least it’s hilarious. For those that don’t know, YouTube’s biggest star, Pewdiepie, has a specific logo. It’s called the Bro Fist. It’s based on the send-off Pewdiepie likes to do at the end of his videos. You’ve probably…
Watch as one gamer blazes through the capital wasteland in the time it takes most of us to deliberate over a single SPECIAL point. Phenomenal. The latest world record playthrough of Fallout 3 “any percentage” was attained by Rydou a few days ago, and you can watch the 14:54 run below. It’s the first time…
It feels like video games got raunchier in 2015. More games tackled sex in novel ways this year, and many of the biggest controversies of 2015 revolved around nudity. Oh, and lots of people continued to draw video game dicks in 2015, too. Some things never change. Here’s a look back at the biggest sex…
Ever notice Fallout 4’s awesome mushroom clouds? They look damn convincing! Here’s how Bethesda did it. Simonschreibt dives into the technical details that go into producing a mushroom cloud in Fallout 4, and it’s a fascinating watch: Basically, in order to nail the motion of an explosion, the textures of the mushroom cloud are moved…
Ohhhh. So that’s what really happened to Mike Tyson, huh? (Via ryrycomedy)
Most of us probably spent hours in the first town of Fallout: New Vegas. Here, you can watch someone beat the entire thing in a ridiculous 20:47. That’s the latest world record speedrun time for New Vegas, and it was cracked by “Kungkobra.” You can watch the “any percentage” run below: It can be a…
Watch in awe as these gamers find ways to launch themselves into places no Halo player was ever meant to go. “Elevated Existence” is a 10-minute montage created by the folks over at Termacious Trickocity, and it chronicles the result of a countless number of hours messing around in various Halo games, trying to land…
Fallout 4 expects you to commit murder. While you can occasionally avoid killing others, the wasteland is ruthless and demands violence. That’s how Bethesda intended the game to be played, anyway—but clever players are finding ways around it. Back in July 2015, The Guardianinterviewed Todd Howard, Fallout 4’s game director. Howard was asked about what…
In Fallout 4, not only is Santa Claus real, he wears a damn Power Armor suit. Because of course he does. Here’s an amazing Christmas celebration by Tyrannicon within Fallout 4—he basically pretends to be Santa Claus, and goes around the Commonwealth saving the day with the help of candy cane mini guns. Also, actual…
If you’re thinking of giving someone an Xbox, PlayStation, Wii U, 3DS, Vita, or iPad this Christmas, there’s something you can do to sweeten the deal even more for the recipient: download every update for the console first. Yes, this will require you to open the gift, take the console out, and then repack it—which…
As many of us get excited to find brand new games under our trees this weekend, it’s worth looking back at what happened last year, when some jerks tried to ruin Christmas for everyone. Many of you might recall the mess that transpired around Christmas 2014, when online services hosting Xbox Live and the PlayStation…
For some, weather might just seem like a small detail within Fallout 4. But for PC gamers, this environmental element is pretty damn important. Over at the Nexus Fallout 4 mod portal, “True Storms” by fadingsignal has been the most popular mod for Fallout 4 over the last two weeks. The cool thing about True…
I am in awe that anybody managed to figure this out. Recently, Battlefield 4 received a holiday update patch that included a number of tweaks and bug fixes. It also came with a new map pack, which included an area known as Dragon Valley—veteran players might know this as a locale from Battlefield 2. The…
