Diablo‘s Treasure Goblins Are Coming To World of Warcraft: Legion

Legion will introduce a new type of creature to World of Warcraft that might be familiar from Diablo III. It’s the Treasure Goblin, or as he’s known here, Treasure Demon.

Multiplayer-Only Games Shouldn’t Cost $60

Lately I’ve been playing a lot of Rainbow Six Siege. It’s really good, but I’m not feeling very optimistic about its long-term prospects. Siege, like any multiplayer game, will only thrive if it can form a lasting community of players. My pessimism regarding its chances to do so is the same pessimism that was eventually…

Make Everything Smell Like Cat Head with This Japanese Spray

If you own a cat, you probably know this: the back of their heads smells so damn good. One Japanese company researched that scent, recreated it, and is now bottling and selling it. Okay, not all cats smell good (some smell terrible), but according to Naver Matome, the Japanese owners of ones that do, described…

Dreamfall Chapters: Book Four Takes You to Magical Lands

Dishonored Was Such A Beautiful Video Game

Cedric Peyravernay is a French artist who has worked on games like Dishonored (indeed, we featured some of his paintings from that game a few years back). Most of the images below are Peyravernay’s character work on that game, though fans of Ulysses 31 should get to the bottom for a rad surprise. You can…

Fallout 4 Player Goes On Drug-Addled Basketball Odyssey

“He lost his son, so he adopted the streets.” This video from DefendTheHouse showcases one of Fallout 4’s lesser-known features: basketball. I call it a “feature,” but what I really mean is, there are basketballs you can pick up and—using the game’s often clunky physics engine—throw, sometimes at basketball hoops that happen to be placed…

YouTube Bans Another Game Channel For Mysterious Reasons [UPDATE]

Valkyrie Drive Bhikkhuni is an action game released for Vita in Japan today, but trailers for the game seem to have gotten one of Marvelous’ YouTube channels banned. I say “seem” because there’s no way to be sure—YouTube is confusing that way—but, uh, the anime it’s based on is one step away from pornography. Update…

GTA Online’s New Mode Reminds Me of Manhunt

The multiplayer competitions in Grand Theft Auto Online tends to happen in big, spread-out sections of Rockstar’s fake Los Angeles. But the newest ways to take out fools in the online version of Los Santos happens in tightly confined spaces, making for quick, spectacular sessions. Every Bullet Counts—the new player-vs-player Adversary Mode option that hit…

Finding Inspiration In Popples And Power Rangers

Playing around with some of the latest Power Ranger Dino Charge toys and transformable plushies from Saban’s Popples reboot has inspired me to do two things—one noble, and one mildly insane. A table filled with toys from these two very different lines united under Saban Brands says a lot about the world we live in…

Blaming Lag Is The ‘My Dog Ate My Homework’ Of Video Games

A short story. Last night I was playing a game of league of legends and losing really, really badly. One opponent was boasting in /all chat about winning. Suddenly we rebounded. He immediately responded “OMFG LAGG.” “OMG WTF LAG” Moments, as I like to call them, happen all the time in League of Legends—and, really,…
