This Borderlands cosplay from Thousand-Faces is just ungh. I love how they’ve extended the cel-shading effect, letting it run off their make-up and all the way onto the outfits themselves. Photos by Insomniac Studios

Given that Zootopia is an animated film about animals, you’d think effective Zootopia cosplay would be the reserve of furries. Turns out that’s not quite the case: some wigs and subtle but effective make-up work can also get the job done. This is gnitae as Judy Hopps, TimFowl as Nick Wilde and anna_berten as Dawn…
There are two ways you can cosplay as a Fallout vault survivor. One is how they appear in the actual game world. The other is how they’re depicted in the series’ pin-up posters. Russian cosplayer Galina Zhukovskaya (via Cosplay Blog) has gone for the latter.
Tony Temple has written one hell of a story about a “raid” on the The Duke of Lancaster, a beached and rotting former luxury liner in Wales that for over 30 years had hidden a treasure trove of classic arcade games inside its hold. The ship, built in 1956 to move passengers around in style,…
Against all odds, Goat Simulator came out in 2014. Against more odds, it continues to exist as a real video game that’s very dumb, but pretty fun for a couple hours. Last year, it got an expansion that made fun of zombie games. Now it’s taking aim at Star Citizen, of all things. Star Citizen…
All Erik Flom wanted to do was stream Counter-Strike for nine hours. Microsoft had other ideas. Flom, aka fl0m (he’s a former pro CS player) had been livestreaming the game on his Twitch channel earlier this month when, whomp, Windows 10 did its thing, interrupting his session right in the middle of a game to…
On the surface, Doom seems like a clean break from the previous games, merely borrowing the same premise: you’re on the surface of Mars and fighting demons from Hell. But there’s evidence suggesting it’s more, and that id Software found a way to connect the series together. Maybe. Let’s start by looking at the opening…

Since revealing Pokémon GO last year, Nintendo and developer Niantic have been pretty quiet about how exactly it will work. We knew that it would be a Pokémon game for your mobile, and that you would be able to capture Pokémon in the world, but little else. Finally the studio behind the game has spilled…
It’s been nearly a year since we’ve heard or seen anything related to the latest entry in the Ghost Recon series, but that should change at E3. The latest trailer, featuring a guy who sure sounds like but probably isn’t Matthew McConaughey, looks like an actual game. It doesn’t feature a release date, but given…
Old-school NES fans might have fond memories of StarTropics, an action-adventure game that crosses Zelda with Indiana Jones. Starting today, you can play both it and its sequel on your Wii U. StarTropics, which first came out in 1990, had the rare distinction of being only released in Europe and the U.S., not Japan. Still…
The folks behind Minecraft are adding a set of new mini-games, starting with a competitive multiplayer mode that will release on consoles in June.

As Spoon and Tamago points out, between 1826 and 1833, artist Katsushika Hokusai did thirty-six views of Mount Fuji. Taking inspiration from Hokusai,…

Ever dreamed of finding yourself as the destined hero of a JRPG-style world? KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World has fun showing you why that might not be as fantastic as you’d think—and to great comedic effect. At first, KonoSuba seems like every other anime in the popular subgenre of “Otaku protagonist transported to…
