This Is What Happens When Your Killstreak Is Too High In Halo 4
Hearing the announcer in a first-person shooter boom a proud “killing spree” is standard fare. But what happens when your killstreak is so damn high that the announcer himself can barely keep up with you? TheWarpZone and an Anthony Burch (from Gearbox) look alike have that answer for you. And now I can’t stop laughing.

Let This Fan-Made The Walking Dead Trailer Show You How Emotional The Game Is
Man, Luke Ritson keeps killing it with these alternative launch trailers. It might be because The Walking Dead was my personal favorite game of last year, but this trailer of Ritson’s is the best yet. Be careful about spoilers, though, because this trailer spans a few episodes of the adventure series. Fortunately it doesn’t spoil…

Tina’s Top Ten Games Of 2012
Last year was supposed to be the year I got a beast of a PC set up in my tiny apartment. It didn’t end up being that year. 2013 will be, though, PC gods willing. So even though I missed out on games that looked right up my alley—like Hotline Miami or Natural Selection 2…

Watch This Silly Source Filmmaker Re-Creation Of Two YouTubers Absolutely Losing It
Sonic The Hedgehog released in 2006 sure is a terrible game. The duo known as Game Grumps learned this the hard way, and broadcasted their experience playing the game for their audience about a month ago.

The Walking Dead is lovely in the most horrifying ways. Some people have asked me why anyone would want to subject themselves to something that outwardly seems so depleting. It’s depressing. Haunting. This isn’t one of those games where you face a harrowing plot, but end the story on a happy note by conquering the…

Hey, Game Developers: Please Steal These Ideas In 2013
Whether it’s a quick save option, fast travel, the ability to skip cutscenes, or something totally random but life-saving, some games in 2012 have experimented with what seem to be really small ideas, but contribute to an overall greater experience. They may not have been the creators of these ideas, but they’ve got the right…

This Rap Battle Between Gollum and Smeagol Is Both Gross And Awesome
Gollum/Smeagol are both actually quite clever. If the [minor The Hobbit spoilers] riddle scene in The Hobbit tells us anything, it’s certainly at least that much. So it stands to reason that the split-personality hobbit could also string a few clever rap verses together. And just wait until Smeagol starts dropping the bass. But I’m…
