Don’t worry, Guillermo. You are not alone. The movie director had teamed up with game creator Hideo Kojima for what seemed like a truly interesting video game.

Tweeted out today by Bethesda, the above image shows off the PlayStation Vita’s ability to run Fallout 4, streamed from a PS4. Not a bad perk, if you’ve got the gear. Bethesda also noted that the controls for Vita—which has fewer shoulder buttons than a PS4 controller but more options for touch input—were handled by…
Sid Meier’s name is on the box, but Civilization was actually the brainchild of two designers. Bruce Shelley is the other, and here are both men giving a good talk on the history of the series.

Here’s Darth Vader, single-handedly destroying a Rebel Snow Speeder by throwing his lightsaber into the air. Damn! The moment comes from Muselk, who, funnily enough, had a few traumatic run-ins with Darth Vader earlier in the source (sponsored) video. Then Muselk becomes just Vader and pulls off the awesome moment in the GIF above around…
People don’t only love CD Projekt RED because The Witcher 3 was great. The company released 16 DLCs for free, talked openly about the game’s budget and profits, and included a “thank you” note in the box. It might be brilliant PR, but after speaking with the studio’s co-founder, there’s something else there, too. “We…

One of the most memorable scenes in Fast & Furious 6 comes early in the film, when bad guy Owen Shaw drives out of a hideout wrecks the entire London police force using what looks like a giant metal door wedge. YouTuber RUNitsAlpha created Shaw’s killer door wedge in GTA V, and used it to…
Bedlam (not to be confused with the other Bedlam) is a first-person shooter that spans the history of the genre. It has no qualms with giving classics or their diehard fans shit for some of their more irritating habits. (Minor Bedlam spoilers ahead.) OK, so here’s the setup: you’re Heather “Athena” Quinn, a scientist who’s…
You’ve probably heard Charles Martinet countless times while traversing the Mushroom Kingdom. But it’s something else entirely to watch the man behind Mario actually play Mario.
