I’m a big fan of Super Motherload, and I was really looking forward to the co-op mode. After messing around in singleplayer, it seemed like it would be too easy, so I was determined to beat it on Hardcore. What a mistake. I played with my friend Rob, and despite how it may seem, we…
Stun_Gravy and the Action Bastards aren’t content to just launch jeeps onto the skyscraper in Battlefield 4, they have to do it during a match and capture the flag with it. As if that wasn’t enough, toward the middle of the video, the squad snipes the pilot of a chopper while simultaneously hitting it with…
“This is a game about a disgruntled child.” Okay computer, I’ll just start working on my underground bunker now, don’t mind me. ANGELINA is a computer program that designs games. It (she?) was designed by Mike Cook, as part of his research into destroying humanity how computers can design games that humans wouldn’t think of…
Minecraft, Super Motherload, Dig Dug, they all give you that nice feeling of getting something done as you dig through the earth. This one has platforming and adorable steampunk robots, so it might be a winner. Steamworld Dig has already gotten praised on the 3DS, but now it’s finally on PC so us non-handheld owners…
Not only did Joshino pull off this well-known Battlefield move in Planetside 2, but he made it his last kill to reach Battle Rank 100. If you aren’t familiar with the Rendezook, it’s where you jump out of an aircraft, kill another aircraft with a rocket, and jump back in. The best part of this…
If you aren’t familiar with Watchlist, it’s a place for all the videos that we have here on Kotaku. If you are familiar with it, you should know that it’s now going to be focused on showing off new and upcoming games. Of course you’ll find Leo’s videos there, and the various gameplay videos that…
I stumbled onto a trailer for this game and thought it looked pretty interesting, so the developer sent me a “demo prototype” so I decided to check it out. Despite the unfinished state, it’s actually quite fun! Update: There’s a public demoavailable now! I’m definitely looking forward to playing the finished version of this game.…
In the last 24 hours of the year, I finally got around to making my top ten list for 2013. As a special bonus, I’m including my list of shame for everything I didn’t get around to this year. Yes, since I’m technically a video editor, I decided to do my top ten as a…
Dave Nunez sure likes 3D printing stuff, and his latest project was no small undertaking. Inspired by his desk lamp and a pile of spare parts, he came up with the design for this ‘NESPoise’ system, and it sure is pretty. The same guy who created the tiny Xbox One, Dave has a 3D printer…
Ballpoint Universe brings together a collection of weird drawings of bullets, boots and spaceships and throws them together into a shoot-em-up. It’s a cool art style, and the game has a weird humor that matches it perfectly. Ballpoint Universe: Infinite was funded on Kickstarter and is available now on Steam, Desura and the App Store.
Sure, there have been plenty of movies about killing Hitler. But this one has Vikings. And dinosaurs. And a power glove, Thor, street punks, a disgruntled police chief… What I’m trying to say is that this movie has everything. If you believe in the dream that the Laser Unicorns are pitching, you can help them…
It’s tough getting a game console for Christmas, because, sometimes, you get the wrong one. Given that the PS4 and Xbox One were two of the hottest gifts for this year’s holiday, Twitter is now full of people talking about the consoles. In many cases, they’re talking rather grumpily about the console they actually wanted.…
Cards Against Humanity is sold out again. This time, they have a good explanation for how it happened. Designer Max Temkin wrote about the process of trying to predict Christmas sales, and why marketing reports aren’t very helpful.
I think FinalCutKing might secretly have some problem with Christmas since his idea of a holiday video was gingerbread men destroying decorations. It’s okay with me though, because the result is awful pretty in slow motion.
It’s always so much fun to play a game like Battlefield with 64 players on a map, but it really can’t compare to 850 players all flying around in their own personal 747s. I grabbed Leo and we ventured back to Panau to see what CHAOS we could stir up.
Halo: Spartan Assault was originally banishedto Windows 8 devices, but now that there’s a shiny new Xbox on the market, it’s available on Xbox One. So just in time for Christmas, I bring you a look at how the game plays on Xbox One. We liked the original game, and the new version of Spartan…
There’s no reason that McMaNGOS should have mashed up the theme from Angry Birds and the Beastie Boys’ ‘Intergalactic’. Except that it works surprisingly well. via /r/mashups
December isn’t the busiest time for new game releases. Which makes it the perfect time to try something new — like this lumberjack simulator. Although I always thought running around with a chainsaw would be more entertaining. Once you figure out what to do, the game works fine, but don’t think that this game has…
IT’S FINALLY TIME. All those cookies I’ve been saving up since last time now have a purpose. There’s a new Cookie Clicker update and it involves growing a Santa from a test tube. It always begins with a mystery: Here’s a look at the new features upgrades, although I’m just short of (I hope) the…
