Cosplaying as Leela from Futurama isn’t as easy as it, ahem, looks. Getting the single eye to sit/look right on a normal human’s face is a tough ask! Holly Brooke has a novel solution here, though, with help Keroga Forge, who made the gun. Photo by Lucky Monkey
If only 1986 Luke could have seen this trailer with his 1986 eyes.
John Thacker is a concept artist who has worked on games like Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Counter Strike: Global Offensive and Defense Grid. You can see more of John’s art at his Facebook and ArtStation pages. To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you…
You may have seen the news today that The Witcher 3 has sold well over 6 million copies. Impressive! We don’t normally like to talk about raw sales figures here on Kotaku, but I think there’s a lesson to be learned from this particular success. The most obvious one is that good video games sell.…
Did you know that Kotaku features editor Kirk Hamilton has never played Final Fantasy VI? Let’s change that. I’ll be guiding Mr. Hamilton through the best Final Fantasy game as he plays through it live, in front of y’all, thanks to the power of Twitch streaming. We’ll likely stream for a couple of hours—maybe longer…
Oh, you think you’ve scored some long-range Rocket League goals? This is as long range as range as it gets. I don’t know what’s more impressive. The fact this went in without bouncing, or the fact it went in at all. The gif up top is the “easy” part. Below is the full thing.
I’ve seen a handful of video-game-themed marriage proposals in my day, but this one takes the cake. A website designer by the name of Noah Yamen recently posted about his Borderlands-themed marriage proposal to his girlfriend, Tia. He explained that playing the co-op shooter RPG is one of their favorite things to do together. “Playing…
After a busted first attempt and then some “stress tests”, Capcom has finally nailed down some dates for a proper Street Fighter V beta. It’ll start at 4pm on August 28 (PST), and run until 7am on September 2 (PST).
Until Dawn is fantastic, and the horror premise is readymade for streaming and Let’s Plays. Who lives? Who dies? It’s perfect for an audience! For whatever reason, though, Sony has decided to handicap how people share experiences, if you’re streaming directly from a PlayStation 4. I’d read some scattered reports that Twitch archives for Until…
YouTube is making another big push into the world of video games with the launch of YouTube Gaming today, but the complicated world of Content ID and copyright claims may prove an enormous hurdle. My eyebrows raised when I saw this tweet earlier today: (If you’ve fallen victim to this due to abuse or false…
If you were on the Internet in 2000, you may remember John Titor, a message board poster who said he had traveled back through time from a post-apocalyptic 2036, ravaged by World War III and the collapse of federal government. Titor, as it turned out, wasn’t real. But he stuck in people’s heads, and he…
The Coma looks like its a mix of Lone Survivor and Persona—which is pretty exciting, if you ask me. Here’s the premise, per the developers, Devespresso Games: You were just another normal high school student in Korea. You had just sat down for your final exam, exhausted from an all-night cramming session. The result of…
If what I saw during an hour session of Divinity: Original Sin 2 is any indication, the RPG sequel is gonna make you really mad at your friends. Divinity: Original Sin 2, the sequel to Larian’s excellent evolution of classic PC RPGs, hit Kickstarter today. A handful of hours later, it’s already almost completely funded.…
When I play a Mario game, I expect to make a lot of decisions about when to run and when to jump. Those expectations go out the window while I’m playing Super Mario Maker. Sometimes, I boot up a Mario Maker level only to find that the whoever created the level actually just wants me…
Assassin’s Creed Syndicate has been delayed on PC. It’s coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on October 23, but won’t hit PC until November 19, almost a whole month later. Ubisoft said the additional time will be spent on tweaks and optimization. Fingers crossed? Contact the author at [email protected]
It’s long been unclear who is the worse reporter: Clark Kent, who lies to his readers daily by not mentioning that he’s the guy he is always writing about, or Lois Lane, whose ability to recognize Kent’s true identity is kryptonited by a pair of glasses. Well, at least they won’t have those problems anymore.…
The former Gears of War designer has confirmed the name of his upcoming free-to-play shooter. The game is set in a world after “the shattering,” a cataclysmic event that permanently changes Earth’s gravity. It’s not a huge surprise Bleszinski chose this time to announce Lawbreakers, as the world is currently waxing nostalgic over Gears of…
Grand Theft Auto V resident berdu captures a Reaper creepily hovering over Los Santos, thanks to a new mod that infuses a little Mass Effect into Rockstar’s game. JJxORACLE created the mod, though it’s currently in beta. It replaces the blimp currently floating around the game. The Reaper doesn’t have any collision detection, though, so…
Probably the only thing that most people know about Devil’s Third is that it’s been in development for an unusually long time. Valhalla Game Studios’ debut started life as an Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 game, announced in late 2011 by publisher THQ, which has since folded. Back then, it was still a game that…
In unexpected news, Turok: Dinosaur Hunter and Turok 2: Seeds of Evil are getting PC re-releases, thanks to the folks at Night Dive Studios. They were also responsible for bringing System Shock 2 back to life. I used to love the Turok games, but I’m scared to play them in 2015! No release date yet.…
