Forget permadeath. There is a more intense way to play DayZ, and it somehow makes the survival game way more hardcore. I speak of perma-permadeath, a concept that Rock, Paper Shotgun writer Christopher Livingston recently documented. Here’s how it works. If you die, that’s it. You don’t just lose your character, though. You never get…
By now, the internet’s (somewhat immature) love of any Shadow of Mordor orc named “Dush” is well-known. But few people actually go through the trouble of making a full-on emotional tribute to Dush orcs, like hoodwinkedfool does. I even got a little sad at the end of this video, too. Aww, Dush. You had an…
The most menacing Pokémon of all is back. EDIT: to quote Nintendo on this, so there’s no confusion. “This series veteran fighter will be made available as free downloadable content in spring of 2015 for anyone who buys both versions of the game.” Apparently they’re not done building him yet! Here is an in-progress GIF:…
Yes, Ridley is in the Wii U version of Smash. No, he’s not playable. But! You can get him to fight for you during a match, which I suppose is an OK compromise. Ridley even has a special form… So much for being too big! Here’s the reveal in full, if you’d like more details:
Every GTA hides secrets—rare and strange occurrences that would be right at home inside an episode of The X-Files. Some of them are scripted. Some aren’t. All of them end up logged and documented by players. If you’ve never visited the GTA Myths Wiki, I highly recommend taking a gander today. While there are things…
If I had to use one word to describe Smash Bros., it would be “mayhem.” Oh, hey. That’s the exact word I’d use to describe a room full of Twitch viewers trying to play a single video game, too. It’s almost like Twitch playing Smash Bros. is the perfect combination. You may know the Twitch…
Disney princesses don’t always have the best priorities—but normally, that’s not actually your problem. Unless, of course, you happen to be friends with a Disney princess. Then things get tricky. Here’s a silly take on what it would be like to know Disney Princesses in real life, as a counterpart to the Disney Princes video…
Last month, we detailed Destiny cheats that enabled players to have infinite ammo.Since then, it seems as if cheats available to some players have gotten more complex and game-breaking. In this footage, we can see YouTube user MhzMiricle entering a special menu where they can tell the game what cheat they’d like to enable: As…
We already know Legion like to dance. It’s probably not a stretch to think he eventually branches out from just doing the robot, right? Here is Legion, dancing along to Anaconda thanks to Revolution72 Studios. Because butts, I guess? Here is Legion’s original dance: And here’s Anaconda, in case you wanted the full song: If…
It all started with a simple investigation: how many Sims can one fit in a grid in The Sims 4? Then, everything gets out of hand. In order to answer that question, PrettyGrumpyBearGame ends up kidnapping everyone in The Sims 4—that is, until the game stops spawning sims. Then PrettyGrumpyBearGame has to take matters into…
It’s easy to dismiss Professor Oak as a doofy academic who can’t even remember his grandson’s name. But originally, Pokémon Red & Blue designed Professor Oak as a powerful trainer the player could face off sometime near the end of the game. This battle, as some hardcore Pokémon fans know, was cut. But according to…
We’ve seen what happens when Pokémon battles get ugly.What about when they get really intense, what happens then? A Smash Bros. mod can answer that question. A couple of months ago we showed you a nearly heart-stopping Smash Bros. battle, which was done with the help of Project M’sTurbo Mode—a special feature that lets Brawl…
Gather round the fire, vault dwellers, and let me show you a story. Perhaps you’ve heard this story before—but probably not like this. ShoddyCast brings us an excellent Fallout machinima which retells the story of The Pitt, a DLC add-on for Fallout 3. Even if you’ve played through that, this is still worth a watch…
When players modded the censors covering characters up in The Sims 4, they found that sims were pretty much Barbies underneath the clothes. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before someone took matters into their own hands and changed that. Warning: this post contains NSFW content. Hardcore Sims players may know about the…
Shinji Mikami’s latest take on survival horror looks like an intense affair full of blood and guts. But it also occasionally has some bugs—many of which make the game way more hilarious than it intends to be. Here are some of our favorite picks of glitches or goofy moments that people around the web have…
So you want to play as Little Mac. Or, lets be real, you want to learn how to best deal with Little Mac, a highly popular character in Smash Bros. You’ve come to the right place. Little Mac is rather infamous right now, as he is a powerful character that many people like to play…
For most of us, the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire demos don’t drop until October 21st—and even then, it’ll only be available to folks who are a part of the Pokémon Trainer’s Club. But you don’t have to wait to see what the demo holds, if you don’t want to. Here is GameXplain playing through…
Whenever I talk to a Smash Bros. player, the first question that inevitably comes up is “who do you main?” The characters you pick and play the most, after all, reflect you and your playstyle. More than that, mains say something about your personality. People who play Captain Falcon, for example, are sort of doofy…
Pokémon X & Y are rather happy-go-lucky games—that is, with the exception of a mysterious ghost girl that managed to freak players out last November. You’d think that by now, almost a year after her discovery, we’d know what her deal is…but no. She’s still somewhat of an enigma. Some background, in case you’re not…
I’ve long held that Nintendo is pretty much the Disney of video games, and that the incredible attention to detail put in games like Smash Bros. proves it. So really, a Smash x Disney mash-up is a match made in Final Destination. The Mickey x Mario combo you see above is the handiwork of Michael…
