I’ve been playing the Battlefield series since the original game, Battlefield 1942. Any long-time Battlefield player will tell you what makes the series great are the random moments where something happens that you didn’t know was possible. But in Battlefield 3, one map let you re-create that moment every match. So you’re playing Battlefield 3.…
For this Last-Gen Zero, we recognize the original Xbox 360 power brick. Last-Gen Heroes is Kotaku‘s look back at the seventh generation of console gaming. In the weeks leading up to the launch of the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One, we’ll be celebrating the Heroes—and the Zeroes—of the last eight years of console video…
Every Call Of Duty has its required stealth mission, and the “don’t get caught” achievement to go with it. The Jungle Ghosts achievement is somewhat frustrating to get, but check out this video and you’ll ghost right through it. Of course, the other requisite achievement is the “do something difficult on veteran”. Piece Of Cake…
Batman does a bit more detective work in his new game. Good thing? Bad thing? Take a look as Evan Narcisse and I show you what’s new in Batman Arkham Origins. Take a look at our full review of the game here Batman: Arkham Origins is out now on PC, Wii U, PS3, and Xbox…
Sure, I love playing Cookie Clicker at work, but that love began with Candy Box. It starts so simply, just a handful of candies and two buttons, then turns into a genuine RPG. The sequel more than lives up to the original, and you need to check it out. The video up above should give…
Deathstroke is one of the eight assassins sent to kill Batman in Batman: Arkham Origins, so he should be a formidable opponent. The problem is, he’s a bit too tough, resulting in a pretty frustrating boss fight. Take a look at the video above for how to get through it. Deathstroke aside, Arkham Origins isn’t…
Enter The Dominatrix was originally announced for Saints Row The Third, then turned into a full sequel, now it’s DLC again. I think Volition found the perfect way to include their crazy story that began as an April Fool’s joke. If you’re a fan of DVD extra features and deleted scenes (and also Saints Row),…
Not only did Vlambeer make another great shoot-em-up, they’re also live streaming the game’s development twice a week while the game is in early access. Check out the gameplay above and learn the meaning of “explosive revenge.” The team is streaming development twice a week ontheir twitch channel, and you can find more details ontheir…
Sure, you’ve played roguelikes before, but it’s a bit different when you mix in the Old Ones of H.P. Lovecraft’s writing. Eldritch takes you into that world and keeps you there with solid, fun gameplay. Eldritch is available now on the developer’s website, and is coming soon to out now on Steam. Check out the…
Leo and I decided to try out this free-to-play game called Tactical Intervention as a fallback when another game wasn’t working. We didn’t have very high hopes for it, but we gave it a try. Now it might be my new favorite multiplayer game. The video above might be a little confusing, but that’s because…
There’s something to be said for games that just feel right. Glare isn’t terribly challenging, but something about running around a beautiful alien world cleaning up purple smoke monsters feels right. Take a look at the gameplay up top. Glareis $15 on Mac, Linux and Personal Computers.
This is getting out of control. I want my life back. This new clicking game has two buttons to click, and penalties to avoid. These games just keep coming, soon they’ll have 3D graphics and objectives and plots, and we’ll have lost our entire civilization to them. I’m not going to stop though. I played…
Join our crew! GTA Online has been fun, but lonely without a crew to play with. Turns out our crew is invite only, so let’s start accepting some invites! Leave a comment with your social club name and request an invite, and I’ll spend all night sorting through them. Also check out the unofficial community…
I’m going to drop some big news here, are you ready? Dark Souls 2 is really difficult. There, I said it. Of course it’s also fun, if you’re into the particular brand of masochistic fun that From Software provides. I spent two hours playing the beta and trying to get a handle on the changes,…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNfhcD… I’m a week into playing GTA Online. My character mysteriously had a sex change during one of the Social Club outages. She still never has arms when I log in, and changes clothes every time I look away. Somehow I ended up in a dogfight with a fighter jet and, some time before that,…
The Stanley Parable is a remake of the fantastic 2011 Half-Life 2 mod about a man named Stanley. The creators, Galactic Cafe, really don’t like sharing anything from the game, as you can see in their trailers, so now they’ve gone even further and created a standalone demo showing off the behind-the-scenes of remaking their…
Sure, video games these days can simulate hyper-realistic alien murder, but what about the life of a young actress? Ellen Page Simulator 2014 hopes to do exactly that, letting you shape the Canadian starlet’s personality, from what dolls she chooses to play with to working up the courage for her first kiss. Okay, Ellen Page…
Ascend: Hand of Kul is a free-to-play RPG on Xbox 360, and it’s surprisingly fun. Sure, you do have to look past all the HEY BUY THIS but it’s a decent hack-and-slash where you can peek into other players’ worlds and banish some of your enemies for them to deal with. Not a bad gimmick.…
Kotaku Editor-In-Chief Stephen Totilo feels very strongly about Pac-Man, or at least the fact that I haven’t played Championship Edition. So, while enlightening me to the wonders of PMCEDX+, we decided to see if the new All You Can Eat add-on pack was worth eight dollars. Check out the video and see for yourself! Watch…
With a name like Girl Fight, you’d expect a bottom-of-the-barrel exploitation game, with heavy focus on boob jiggle and awkward moaning. Instead, it’s a dull Dead Or Alive clone with okay fighting. I went into Girl Fight expecting some really over the top sexualization, but it ends up just being a generic fighter with no…
