World’s Best Smash Bros. Player Makes Awesome Comeback After Almost Burning Out

Last weekend, things didn’t look so great for Smash Bros.’ top player, Gonzalo “Zer0” Barrios. For a moment, it seemed like reigning champ might actually lose a tournament. (I apologize for the auto-playing Twitch embeds below. You might want to scroll down and pause those before reading further.) What you have to understand is, up…

Hero Player Dunks On Mario Maker Troll, Saves All The Yoshi

Killing Yoshi to save your own skin is a time-honored tradition in Mario. Noble players who decide against ruthlessness do exist, though. Those of you who play Mario Maker know about a popular type of level that has the player sacrificing Yoshi to make particularly tricky jumps. Then, in a shitty twist, the levels typically…

The Most Popular PS4 Communities Are Hilarious (And Sometimes Awful)

PS4 players now have the power to form groups for all their favorite games. Almost immediately, people used this power to make all sorts of ridiculous, hilarious, WTF, and sometimes horrible communities. Here are some of the best (and worst) that I’ve found. At first glance, PS4 communities seem fairly normal. Here are the top…

Stephen Colbert Interviews Pewdiepie, Nails It

YouTube’s biggest star was on the Late Show last night—and the segment was actually pretty good. Really, I’d say that Colbert gaveJimmy Kimmela master class in how to cover the phenomenon that is Let’s Plays. Going in, Colbert immediately poked fun at television, calling it a “steam-powered medium”—and Pewdiepie talked about how, personally, he never…

Brave Man Plays Every GTA Clone He Can Find On The App Store

Holy moly. There are a TON of hilariously bad if not somewhat broken GTA clones on mobile. YouTuber Jerma985 took the bullet for us and actually played through a bunch of those mobile knock-offs. You can see him wrestle with and laugh at these games in the video below. SHOCKINGLY, many of these games are…

Someone’s Making A Working Copy Of Pokémon Red In Minecraft

Well, this is pretty damn incredible. What you’re looking at above is a screenshot of an ambitious project undertaken by RedditorMagib1, who is using command blocks in Minecraft to rebuild Pokemon Red in its entirety. The result is a working Game Boy of sorts, which is pretty bonkers to think about. “This is meant to…

How To Sort Through The Crap And Find Good Mario Maker Courses

Believe it or not, Super Mario Maker has a ton of great courses floating around. Here is the system I used to find these elusive levels. First, I’m going to assume you already hit up our list of “20 courses you should play”—there is a lot of good stuff there that you can check out.…

GTA Online Crew Goes All Out With Recruitment Ad

Meet Los Demonios. They are a GTA Online crew that is looking for new blood. I’ve seen my share of GTA Online crews who do some intense roleplay, but this gang’s recruitment ad takes the cake: Not only did they put in the effort to make a nice cinematic trying to woo prospective brothers and…

Pewdiepie’s Game Tries Way Too Hard

Right now, the top game on the App Store stars none other than Felix Kjellberg. I took the game for a spin, and here’s what I found. PewDiePie: Legend of the Brofist is a $4.99 mobile game where the big bad villain is…a barrel. Yes, you read that right. An evil barrel. To the average…

Guy Cries Tears of Joy After Beating Mario Maker’s “Hardest” Level

Thousands of people have tried this grueling Mario Maker level. Only a handful of people have actually beaten it thus far—and they had to go through hell to do it. Here’s what that feels like: This video, uploaded by 広樹 あああ, shows what happened after a Japanese broadcaster beat the infamous “Pit of Panga: P-Break”…

I Bought Five Packs of Animal Crossing Amiibo Cards And Didn’t Fucking Get Isabelle

Nooooooo. This is how they get you. This is exactly how Nintendo gets you to spend money on stuff that might just end up in a landfill in a few years. For those of you that don’t know: today is the release of Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, a game where you decorate the homes…

Mario Maker Course Is A Tragic Tale of Friendship

Nobody told me Super Mario Maker was gonna get this real, god damn. While there are plenty of batshit difficult courses circulating in Mario Maker, my favorite type of level is the kind that tries to tell astory. The tools are pretty limited, at least when it comes to narrative design, so people have to…

Perks Are Changing Big Time In Fallout 4 

Vault dwellers are not born. They are made—by you. And judging from what Bethesda has shared so far, it looks like Fallout’s character creation is getting a major facelift. As always, you will pick SPECIAL stats that end up determining your skills and proficiency out in the field. Each of these stats will have its…

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition Update Tries To Fix The Gnasher’s Bullshit

I have not raged as hard at a video game this year as I have Gears of War: Ultimate Edition—and it’s all because of the horribly inconsistent shotgun. Thankfully, the source of my anger is about to improve. To understand why this is such a big issue, I will refer you to the following GIF…

GTA V Players Find Cool New Bigfoot Secret

The legend of Sasquatch just got hella trippier thanks to an awesome recent discovery made by the GTA community. About a week ago, a curious GTA V update dropped. Some players noticed something fishy about a new achievement titled “Cryptozoologist.” It was all in the flavor text: “You unlocked all animals for use in Director…

My Quest To Make The Ugliest House In The New Animal Crossing

For months, I’ve had a specific if not dubious plan for Happy Home Designer. An evil scheme. A dastardly design. I’ve been waiting a long time to make this happen, damn it. The upcoming Animal Crossing game isn’t like the others. Instead of being the new kid in an already established village, Happy Home Designer…

Metal Gear Solid V’s Stealth Is Flawless

They don’t call Big Boss a legend for nothing, you know. While there are many different ways of infiltrating a base in Metal Gear Solid V, my favorite so far is this ridiculous strategy developed by Venom C. You can do it too! Step one: get a jeep. Step two: throw a smoke grenade into…
