I know they’re not actually getting this excited about car soccer, but a man can dream. thumbstickathletes has put together a collection of great Rocket League moments paired with some decidedly enthusiastic soccer announcers doing commentary and the results are great. How many copies does Rocket League have to sell so that Psyonix can legitimately…
If you’ve been looking for a new way to upset some kids, the developers of Year Walk have some ideas. In anticipation of the super creepy Year Walk coming to Wii U later this month, developer Simogo decided to write a selection of short stories, based on the game’s various creatures. They’ve titled it Bedtime…
Almost everyone was dead by the time I saw the credits in Until Dawn, but you can do better! Most of the trophies in Until Dawn are secrets because they’re tied to the various ways the game can play out. (Usually, that means people dying!) If you handle things just right, though, it’s possible to…
Sony’s announced the big features coming to PlayStation 4’s upcoming 3.00 firmware update, and there’s lots to get excited about. PlayStation Blog has the details, revealing the firmware’s internal codename was “Kenshin.” There’s no release date yet, unfortunately, but it should be before the end of the year. The most exciting additions include streaming to…
Maybe you’ll like Mad Max more than Kotaku’s Chris Suellentrop did, and if you’re gonna be playing on the PC, I’ve got some good news. Warner Bros.’ track record with the PC lately is not so great. While Shadow of Mordor was excellent, Mortal Kombat X and Batman: Arkham Knight were both trainwrecks. With Batman,…
I expect weirdness from the sequel to Barkley Shut Up And Jam: Gaiden, but even I was taken aback by the discovery of a turn-based basketball mini-game. We recently learned the Kickstarter-funded sequel won’t arrive until early 2016, but a playable version was being shown over the weekend at PAX Prime in Seattle. The line…
If you’ve been jealous of folks playing Star Wars: Battlefront in the game’s private alpha, EA’s announced the game’s beta will begin sometime in early October. The beta will also mark the debut of a new, mysterious game mode called Drop Zone. Contact the author at [email protected]
In the middle of the show floor at PAX, a text message glared back with a brief message: Wes Craven had died. I stopped a moment, took a breath, and sighed. Few humans have made me laugh and scream the way filmmaker Craven did over the years, and I’ll miss him terribly. Craven had apparently…
Is there someone behind me?
Thanks for my new album cover, Oculus Touch. (It was incredible, by the way. Holy cow.)
And rather than just taking photos of cosplayers at PAX, I decided to join them. Thanks to my Kathryn Klepek taking all these shots! Contact the author at [email protected]
Makes sense. The line’s for Dark Souls III, not surprisingly. You can reach the author of this post at [email protected] or on Twitter at @patrickklepek
This is what it looks like when expert Smash Bros. players are at the helm. There’s a lot going on when someone’s playing a game at a high level, and it’s unlikely that you’re going to spend much time watching everything that’s happening with their hands. YouTube channel Beefy Smash Doods, however, has made visualizing…
Ah, the magic of config files. TheCircuitChaser wasn’t able to run the beta for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 very well on his PC because it’s lacking the tweakable video settings that should be in the final game, so he decided to see how crappy he could make the game look. By digging into…
Twitch Plays Dark Souls continues to make steady progress, having just slain the particularly nasty Belfry Gargoyles. I may have argued they’re cheating atDark Souls, but it doesn’t make their newfound march through the game any less fun to watch.

If you don’t play your cards right, lots of people can die in Until Dawn. One such gory finish has been censored in Japan. But rather than modify the game (or death) in any way, the screen just cuts to black while all the nastiness goes down. Waring: Spoilers ahoy! The YouTube channel Censored Gaming…
Until Dawn is fantastic, and the horror premise is readymade for streaming and Let’s Plays. Who lives? Who dies? It’s perfect for an audience! For whatever reason, though, Sony has decided to handicap how people share experiences, if you’re streaming directly from a PlayStation 4. I’d read some scattered reports that Twitch archives for Until…
YouTube is making another big push into the world of video games with the launch of YouTube Gaming today, but the complicated world of Content ID and copyright claims may prove an enormous hurdle. My eyebrows raised when I saw this tweet earlier today: (If you’ve fallen victim to this due to abuse or false…
Assassin’s Creed Syndicate has been delayed on PC. It’s coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on October 23, but won’t hit PC until November 19, almost a whole month later. Ubisoft said the additional time will be spent on tweaks and optimization. Fingers crossed? Contact the author at [email protected]
The former Gears of War designer has confirmed the name of his upcoming free-to-play shooter. The game is set in a world after “the shattering,” a cataclysmic event that permanently changes Earth’s gravity. It’s not a huge surprise Bleszinski chose this time to announce Lawbreakers, as the world is currently waxing nostalgic over Gears of…
