One-Punch Man Meets World of Warcraft Bosses

Based on the original opening of everyone’s current favorite One-Punch Man, YouTuber Sensus made a cool clip of Saitama annihilating the Burning Legion (and other big bosses). Pretty neat transmog set and no wonder Azeroth’s Saitama (who probably lost his hair during leveling) goes for demons in Outland: Without any gear except a yellow shirt…

How Final Fantasy VII‘s Cloud Has Changed

Via 2ch, here is the the evolution of Cloud’s mug. Of course, if game graphics were used for the earlier titles, the alterations would be…

Though Daigo Was Defeated, He Pulled off the Coolest Capcom Cup Moment

Why the Final Fantasy VII Remake Will Be Split Up

Square Enix is doing more than just remaking Final Fantasy VII. It sounds like FFVII will be episodic. You might have questions about this. Square Enix might even have answers. “From the beginning, we thought a Final Fantasy VII remake would be bigger than a single release,” the game’s original director Yoshinori Kitase told Dengeki…

What It’s Like To Play Rez In A Full-Body VR Suit

You don’t have to play the newly announced Rez Infinite in VR. If you do, though, it’s certainly… something. The Rez Infinite synesthesia body suit is something of an experiment. Debuted during the PSX keynote, it’s a series of vibrators that rumble in reaction to what’s happening in the latest iteration of Tetsuya Mizuguchi’s beloved…

Cosplayers lead dramatic lives. Ratchet (of Ratchet and Clank fame) cosplayer and TAY contributor division-ten told me how she encountered the official PSX Ratchet cosplayer, and they had an intense staredown. “They waited for me to put on my mask,” she said. Evidently, though, the encounter ended peacefully.

The Week In Games: EDF! EDF!

Who has time to worry about playing video games when the city is being invaded by giant insects? I was fully-prepared to declare this one of those ho-hum December weeks packed with digital goodness but not much else, when I remembered humanity’s battle against the bugs. One of my most favorite stupid video game series…

The First Thing I Did In The World Of Warcraft Legion Alpha

Demon Hunters? Whatever. Legendary weapons that evolve with players until the next expansion? Sure. Gnome Hunters? You have my attention, World of Warcraft: Legion. I’ve never really seriously played World of Warcraft’s Hunter class. It’s odd, really. I am a solo player most of the time, and Hunters are a great solo class, but two…
