The beautiful little Game Boy Micro launched 10 years ago in the UK, and I fell in love with it at first sight. Unfortunately, I was 17 years old and had just moved out of my parents’ house, so I had no money to buy one. I’ve been looking to pick one up every since,…
Don’t you miss instruction manuals? Or even just paper? I know I do. And these photos make me miss them even more. Over on 2ch, Japan’s biggest online forum, a series of Famicom-era instruction manuals were recently posted. [via 2ch] Like the Famicom instruction manual, for example. This dates from 1983. [via 2ch] A look…
It’s impossible. This is the best that there ever will be. Promise. Here, we have cosplayer Sly Kucing as Saitama, the bald-headed hero of One-Punch Man. He’s joined by a host of talented cosplayers that includes Hara Takumi, Soo Hon Pong, Tony Liew, andRei Chan. Wonderful work, everyone! The above photo was taken by Le…

Fantasy Flight has a pretty good track record with its Star Wars tabletop games, with two of them—X-Wing and Imperial Assault—in my crew’s regular rotation. They might soon be joined by a third. Star Wars: Rebellion is a new game just announced by the company, and while the name and basic look may remind of…
The perfect Game of Thrones video game—a lot more perfect than Telltale’s one, which ate my save game—is a mod I’ve been writing about for years. So it’s awesome to see that it’s finally out of beta and wearing v1.0 after its title! You can get it from the mod’s official site here. It’ll turn…
Cosplayers being around video games, that’s pretty normal. But cosplayers in a game? Z. Year One is a “roguelike card game” that’s looking to come to PC, mobile and as an actual card game. I haven’t played it, so I have no idea how good it is, but what they’ve done for their card art…
Overwatch’s giant hammer-wielding tank of a man Reinhardt has a powerful charge move that rockets him forward, catching any enemies caught in his path and dragging them along with him. Overwatch also has a lot maps with dangerous precipices to fall off of. You probably see where this is going. In a recent match (via…
The Witcher 3’s first expansion, Heart of Stone, contains three main quests. The first involves getting a ghost laid at a wedding. The second is a heist that goes wrong. The third is, well. The third is going to stay with me for a very long time. USE YOUR WITCHER SENSES TO AVOID THE SPOILERS…
Here’s a modern day video game mystery we haven’t been able to solve: Why are the download files for new Assassin’s Creed Syndicate outfits so enormous? A new free download that gives players a single Steampunk outfit for Syndicate’s twin protagonist Evie Frye is an 820MB download on Xbox One. The PS4 lists it at…

I think this qualifies as a pretty good easter egg. It’s a hidden message in the PC version of Trails in the Sky SC, which came out last week after four and a half years of localization hell. Poor guys.
The Vision has always wanted to be human. It’s kind of his whole “thing.” This week, he tries again—harder than he ever has before—by setting up shop out in the suburbs with a synthezoid wife and children. “Even an android can cry.” It’s the signature line from the classic Avengers issue when the Vision is…
The Binding of Isaac community lost their minds yesterday, in search of items missing from the game. Teases from designer Edmund McMillen suggested it was an elaborate, totally ridiculous mystery for players to solve. The reality is far more mundane: it was a joke, while the developer worked on a patch. Image Credit: TehHolyPancake If…
A lot of gamers have been losing their shit recently because of Overwatch, which just went into closed beta and is already fantastic. You might be wondering: Hey, what does it look like to actually PLAY this game everyone’s so excited about? Wonder no more, my friend! For the sake of clarity, I captured a…
Want to get a sense of how big Fallout 4 is? At least one player is already trying to figure that out. More and more of Fallout 4 has been leaking to the internet, ahead of the game’s release. The latest spoilery bit of information that’s floating around is the size of the Fallout 4…
Steam has added a new ‘item store’ feature. Now, in addition to the player-driven community market, developers can run their own stores (where they set their own fixed prices). Rust is the first game to take advantage, and they’re undercutting some community prices. Hmmm. I’m interested to see how this shakes out.
One of the most exciting developments Riot announced yesterday for its massive pre-season overhaul of League of Legends is a new and retooled champion select system. The thing went live last night on League’s public beta and I got a chance to try it out. So far so good! Seriously, so good. The current champion…
