Pokémon Uranium isn’t your typical Pokémon fan game. The developers seem to be pouring everything into making a game that looks fresh—a quality that is unusual for the franchise. Taking inspiration from real-world places like Rio de Janeiro, the game takes place somewhere very different from any existing Pokémon games. You’ll still be collecting 8…
On Christmas day, diehard Metal Gear Solid fans faithfully tuned into a broadcast called Kojima Station. The hope was that Kojima would give fans a neat look behind-the-scenes on Metal Gear Solid V. Maybe he’d even give people a release date. Who knows! So fans watched this stream for almost three hours. Kojima opened presents…
All those Christmas lights people put up for the holidays? NASA can see it from space. Woah.
How do you celebrate Christmas the GTA way? In a word: murder. Okay, maybe it’s more like two words. Festive murder. Now that it’s snowing in GTA Online, players are finding all sorts of funny things to do with snowballs. In Los Santos, people pack snowballs with rocks and razer blades, apparently. Watch as majestic_steed…
If you log into GTA Online today, you’ll find a nice, wintery surprise waiting for you: snow. Not only that, but you can use this snow to get into snowball fights…and, yes, you can actually kill people with snowballs, as this GIF shows: After watching folks like TwoDynamic play, it seems like you might have…
So you want to be a Smash Bros. expert. Great! But becoming a better player isn’t just a matter of fast reflexes. It’s also a matter of knowing what to do. You know what they say about knowledge and power, right? Earlier this month we covered Super Smash Academy‘s first “basics” video, which covered things…
Pokémon hackers have been busy lately. Not only have they spilled the beans on unreleased legendaries in the last few months, they’ve also figured out how to tinker with Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire—and the results are hilarious. Here’s one hack, uploaded by Huntereb and created by @Reisyukaku, that involves replacing the main character’s model…
Last weekend, a Smash Bros. event called Shockwave 11 went down. And during a Grand Final match with two impressive players, we saw what is probably a master class in swagger. The showdown was intense. A Ness, controlled by a player with the handle “Awestin,” faced off against a Captain Falcon player with the handle…
Not only is there a hidden message inside one of the most important moments of Dragon Age, players think that it might be teasing what’s coming next for the franchise. If you haven’t played through the What Pride Had Wrought mission in Dragon Age, as well as the Morrigan mission following that, you might want…
Now that the end of the year is here, everyone is starting to declare their “game of the year”—and Metacritic has now thrown its hat into the ring. Or, more accurately, ‘everyone’s’ collective hat. Metacritic pools the scores of many different gaming publications, after all. And according to those pooled scores, the top game of…
If you use YouTube much, or if you’re someone that makes videos, then you’re already familiar with one of the fundamental ways YouTube is broken: it doesn’t always show people the latest uploads, even if they’re subscribed to someone. It’s a system that’s crappy for both viewers and content creators. Fans don’t get to be…
Dragon Ball Xenoverse comes out in a couple of months, and based on the latest trailer from Jump Festa, well…it doesn’t look so great. And you know what? Being the trash fan that I am, I still want to play it. Such are the woes of fandom. But seriously though. Maybe this trailer is just…
Iron Bull has the best sex scene in Dragon Age by far. He also has some of the best, if not filthiest, dialogue. If you romance Iron Bull, and you also take him and Cole out with you on missions, this little gem of a conversation happens. It’s pretty revealing: Kinky, huh? I’m not surprised…
Mega Man fans aren’t just hardcore. They’re dedicated. Case in point: this awesome fan game that two people have been working on since 2008. It’s called Mega Man: Revenge of the Fallen—and no, that’s not a Transformers reference. It’s a reference to the game’s story: Robot Masters have been revived by Dr. Wily, and they’re…
Thanks to shenanigans involving alternate dimensions in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Pokémon’s timeline has officially become bonkers. But, there is a way to make sense of it. Basically, there are three different Pokémon dimensions, all of which house their own Pokémon games. In one dimension, you’ve got all the original Game Boy games,…
This week, Rockstar released a holiday update with all sorts of seasonal goodies. One of those things included a gingerbread mask—and players are using it to great effect. Turns out, the happy-go-lucky face looks amazing in just about any context you can think of. Parties and get togethers? You bet. (Click on the thumbnails or…

The Last: Naruto The Movie will see a limited theater release in 20 cities, including New York, Boston, Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, and Seattle. Here’s part of the press release by…
Star Wars features things like the Millennium Falcon, lightsabers and droids. Grand Theft Auto does not. You’d think this would make recreating the new Star Wars trailer impossible in GTA V, especially without the use of mods, but no. People just had to get creative! Props to Powerlight-13 for finding a way to remake the…
Four years ago, an account named “PewDiePie” uploaded a video to YouTube. It was about Minecraft. The video featured what sounded like a young man laughing heartily at an unlucky zombie that had gotten stuck in a tree. The commentary wasn’t in English, it was in Swedish. The next few videos on this account focused…
Pokémon players around the world are coming together in the name of holidays next week. The plan? To brighten up the day of any kid that is playing Pokémon for the first time, after receiving any of the new games as Christmas presents. First, some context. New Pokémon games, like X & Y or Omega…
