The Newest Arkham Knight Comic Makes Some Shrewd Tweaks To Batman Lore

Despite being the titular bad guy in the newest Batman video game, the Arkham Knight was underdeveloped as a major villain. It’s a good thing that a new comic series is convincingly demonstrating how someone very close to the Dark Knight wound up wanting to kill him. Spoilers follow for the plot of Batman: Arkham…

Racist Troll Doesn’t Understand Racism, And Other Trolling Stories

When I asked for your worst (but really best) stories about trolls, I didn’t expect so many stories from trolls. But here we have it: 23 hand-picked stories from your amusing trolling and being-trolled experiences. Suffice it to say that I’ve decided to unplug from the Internet now. Submissions have been edited lightly for clarity.…

Destiny: The Taken King Kicks Ass So Far

When Destiny first launched, it was a half-baked, punishing game with the barest hint of a story, delivered through crummy dialogue and repetitive missions that tasked you with shooting endless waves of enemies. One year later, everything’s changed. I’ve spent much of the past 24 hours powering through Destiny’s big Year Two expansion, The Taken…

Koei Tecmo’s Attack on Titan Game Looks Vicious

Koei Tecmo, best known for Dead or Alive and Dynasty Warriors, is making an Attack on Titan game. We know this! But we haven’t really seen much of the game itself, and now, we get a teeny-tiny peek at that. The game’s original teaser was mostly title cards, still art, more title cards, with a…

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off Retold With Earthbound Characters

Using tilesets and the characters from Earthbound, CineFix made a short clip about John Hughes’ classic from the 80s. So everything looks like Earthbound and the Mother series but it’s no longer about kids travelling around the world. It’s about the harsh reality of high school and the weirdest-looking Ferrari of all time. Gotta love…

When Metal Gear Solid V Meets Yandere Simulator

Today in Unusual Crossovers, we see the protagonist from schoolgirl/murder sim Yandere Simulator moonlight as MGSV’s Quiet. NOTE: Some of this fanart might be considered NSFW. It’s Quiet, after all. It all came from a fanart contest organised by Yandere Sim’s developer, announced two days after MGSV’s release. Those who wished to partake had to…

Deus Ex’s Director Has Changed His Mind About VR

Warren Spector – one of the main creative minds behind Deus Ex, and more recently programme director of the Denius-Sams Gaming Academy at the University of Texas in Austin – was, like many of us, not enormously convinced about VR. This post originally appeared on Kotaku UK In an interview given early this year, he…

World of Tanks? More Like World of Dicks

Online game World of Tanks pulls out some big guns in its latest Japanese commercial. The ad asks, “Do you like cannons?” The Japanese word for cannon (大砲 or taihou) can be used to refer to dicks. But we’re not talking about dicks here, right? Just cannons. That’s all. To contact the author of this…

Pokémon X, Y & Z Is the Newest Pokémon Anime Series

Guess we’ll get to see that latest legendaryin action. Animated action. The upcoming animated feature film has been teasing a green blob character, and now we’re getting a weekly animated series with the five different forms. Pokémon X, Y & Z kicks off in Japan on October 29. To contact the author of this post,…

Look At This Fire Emblem Action Figure

Behold Lucina, resplendent and thoroughly badass in action figure form. This Figma, first shown in 2013, then originally due out earlier this year but delayed for months, is finally out. Mine arrived yesterday, and hoo boy, it’s been worth the wait. She comes with two different head options, two face options, a Marth mask, multiple…

The UFC’s Weirdest Fighter Got Banned For Weed, And That’s Bullshit

Five years. That’s how long the Nevada State Athletic Commission decided UFC fighter/enigma Nick Diaz won’t be allowed to fight. That’s more than most steroid users. All over goddamn marijuana. If you have friends (or enemies) who are super into MMA, they probably haven’t shut up about Nick Diaz in the past 24 hours. That…

Rocket League On Super-Low Specs Looks Like A PS1 Game

LowSpecGamer, the same guy responsible for turning 2015’s most beautiful game into an eyesore, has done the same thing to Rocket League. Only this time is actually looks kinda cool. This isn’t a mod, per se, nor is it a lowering of the game’s actual settings. Instead, it’s the result of tweaks to the game’s…

Lucha Libre Pikachu Looks Badass In The Pokémon Fighting Game

Why have one Pikachu in your Pokémon game when you can have two? I was ready to react to “Masked Pikachu” with “Fuck Pikachu,” but after watching its trailer, I’ve decided that actually, this version of the yellow mouse is pretty awesome. Masked Pikachu makes more sense to include than normal Pikachu, who otherwise looks…
