What if the absurdity and destruction of Goat Simulator bleed into real life? If this video is anything to go by, it would be kind of amazing. Stefman398 went ahead and made a live-action version of Goat Simulator, and the results are wonderful. This depiction even has some of the real achievements you can get…
Forget Call of Duty—it seems like the era of unique, fascinating games about war is underway. Case-in-point: Sunset, an exploration game that puts you in the role of a nosy housekeeper. As the housekeeper, you look after an apartment belonging to someone involved in the war that has broken out around you. From the game’s…
Far Cry Saviors: here’s a great Joystiq interview with Far Cry 4’s narrative director, Mark Thompson, which makes me optimistic about FC4’s story. Basically, they recognize that Far Cry 3’s white savior framework was kind of whack, and they’re not going to do that with again with 4. Yay!
Aww. Who knew that badass mega Pokemon acting like caring, loving parents could be so sweet? Take this Charizard using its tail to help lil Charmander toast its marshmallow, for example. Artist arkeis-pokemon has a whole bunch more where that came from, too: Adorable. You can check out more of arkeis-Pokemon’s work here.
Forest Sharks: The Forest, that survival horror game with cannibalistic mutants, just got a big ‘ol update with lots of fixes, changes and bug-squashing. The update includes stuff like sharks and a more dramatic scene involving your son, Timmy. Neat.
Part of what makes Smash Bros. so great is that it pits characters from all sorts of different franchises together—naturally, fans have ideas about what characters such be included. Like kids sending letters to the North Pole, tons of people take to Miiverse and write letters to Masahiro Sakurai, the creator of Smash Bros, in…
Something curious happened over the weekend: a game called ‘Spintires‘ rose through the Steam charts, eventually becoming the top-selling game on Steam for a few days. Right now, as of this writing, it’s number two. One thing lots people, myself included, couldn’t help but asking was: why? What is it about this game that makes…
Well, that didn’t take long. Literally days after being announced, folks are already making short films about Far Cry 4. Damn. In this short, RocketJump shows us what a real-life co-op attack on an outpost might be like. One of the dudes totally looks like Hurk from the game, too: …now lets just hope nobody…
Time for some trailer analysis! While we didn’t get to see too much of the new Zelda, the short footage we saw was still jam-packed with small stuff that was easy to miss. I mean, let’s be real, most of us were busy thinking about how amazing the grass looks now and such. Thankfully, GameXplain…
Penguins. Whales. Jake the dog from Adventure Time. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Zoidberg. Somehow, Goat Simulator has gotten even wackier, and it’s amazing. You can watch Markiplier play through the Goat Simulator update, which added a ton of new stuff to the game for free, here. It’s also worth noting that the game adds stuff…
Yesterday, we got our first look at Code Name: STEAM, a new strategy game for the 3DS. It sounded awesome—but the screenshots we got to see? They didn’t make the game look so hot. Fear not, though: Code Name: STEAM looks nice in motion. Here are forty-five minutes of the game in action, with some…
It’s probably not surprising to hear that E3 heavily featured men this year—that is, unfortunately, normal—but still, after watching every dude one after the other in a supercut, everyone sort of starts blurring together as a blob of Stern Angry (And Probably White) Dude. It’s not as bad as when every protagonist ever started looking…
Announced today during a 3DS developer event at E3, it looks like Nintendo is releasing a brand new game on the 3DS. It’s called Code Name: STEAM and it launches in 2015. It sounds kind of bonkers. The game partially takes place in London, and it features airships. Think Steampunk (Jason, who is attending the…
Shadow of the Diablo: looks like Diablo III owners on PS3 and PS4 will also get some sweet Shadow of the Colossus gear, in addition to having The Last of Us enemies appear in the game too. You can read more about both here.
The biggest news to hit about Smash Bros. yesterday had to be the inclusion of Pac-Man—and boy did people have a lot to say about it. For some, Pac-Man wasn’t a surprise addition to the roster: Namco is involved in Smash Bros. development, after all. Even so, folks seemed to react strongly to the Pac-Man…
If Game of Thrones were set in the world of The Legend of Zelda, I reckon the intro to the show might look a bit like this. The way the sprites are animated by The Pixel Kingdom here is a really nice touch, yeah? I mean, look at this: So pretty. Video Game of Thrones:…
While some people freak out about how cool the new open-world Zelda looks, there’s a segment of the fanbase that is currently debating one thing: could it be possible that Link is a girl? You don’t have to go far to see these discussions. Immediately after we posted about the new Zelda, there were huge…
The idea that all these characters could be in the same video game would have been inconceivable in the 90s, and yet here we are. Pac-Man, Mega Man, Mario and Sonic are all in the same game. Kind of wild to think about, no? Then again, it’s not like the characters are cooperating with one…
Woah. Looks like the conspiracy theories were true! The news comes out of a Smash Bros. roundtable tonight in E3. Jason—who is attending the event right now—says the game features a new-style Pac-Man that can transform into an old-school Pac-Man for certain attacks. Neat. Pac-man has a fire hydrant move, and can spit out pellets…
The Smash Bros Invitational at E3 had a surprise celebrity round tonight, and you can watch the match that transpired here. Zelda might not play as her namesake, but she does walk onto the stage holding a shout-out to Majora’s Mask. Despite being a fan favorite, Zelda doesn’t win. Alas! UPDATE – UPDATE!
