British enthusiast Paul Harborne spent three years and around $150,000 renovating his rare Cadillac Miller-Meteor and turning it into the iconic car. Must be fun to do a vehicle safety test with this particular car. ButCatersTV’s video…

This Anime Isn’t Really About Picking Up Girls In a Dungeon

If you randomly heard a title like “Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? ,” you’d probably expect to be in for an anime filled with fanservice and nothing but. Yet, while there is some degree of it in this one, it’s never really the focus of the show. In…

Let’s Play Dress Up With Persona 4

Persona 4: Dancing All Night has a lot of awesome remixes of your favorite Persona 4 songs. You know what else it has? A ton of costumes to dress everyone up in. And while I may be partial to those of a certain young detective, every Persona 4 cast member (except poor Margaret) has at…

Luckslinger Is A Cowboy Hip-Hop Game

Ever wonder how wild the Wild West would have been if everyone had been scratching records instead of rustling cattle? Luckslingermight be the game for you. It’s a side-scrolling shooter and adventure title that is mostly a cowboy game, except for the places it takes a detour and dumps a bunch of hip-hop in the…

Welp, That’s It For Besiege

Here lies Besiege. It was massacred by a giant elephant robot monster. Yes, people are still making stuff in Besiege—stuff more elaborate and terrifying than anything they were making back when everybody was paying attention. This elephant is goddamn absurd. Between layers upon layers of armor and so many methods of attack that I lost…

New Skyrim Mod Is Basically A Skyrim Expansion

Skyrim mods, they’re the gift that keeps on giving. Years after the fantasy RPG kingpin came out, we’re seeing stuff that’s practically professional-quality. The Forgotten City could be mistaken for a full-on Bethesda-made expansion. It’s not quite on Enderal’s level, but there’s still a lot to be cautiously optimistic about. Check it out: The mod…

The Injuries That Are Ending eSports Careers

Guild Overcomes World Of Warcraft‘s Hardest Raid Yet After 472 Tries

“13/13,” Method’s Scott McMillan tweeted. And just like that, the World of Warcraft community went nuts. McMillan was referring to the fact that his guild defeated all 13 bosses in WoW’s latest top tier raid, Hellfire Citadel, on Mythic difficulty. And they only wiped 472 times before pulling it off. (For some perspective, they wiped…

Ganging Up On A League Of Legends Pro Is Never A Good Idea

Oh man. I bet these two League of Legends players thought they were being so clever, teaming up at the very beginning of the match to jump into top lane and surprise their opponent who was all alone up there. The would-be ambushers should have checked the in-game handle of their target more carefully, because…

Tetris: The Kotaku Review

Like the delightful and oppressive mobile-game galaxy that it summoned, Tetris is both seductive and dispiriting. Alexey Pajitnov’s falling-block puzzler captures the pleasure and the vacuousness of virtual labor. Each game of Tetris contains an interactive “Ozymandias,” a fruitless quest to build something that will outlast the lone and level sands. Look on my tetrominoes,…

StarCraft II‘s New Campaign Is Short But Sweet

You might be wondering if the new StarCraft II prologue, Whispers of Oblivion, is any good. I am here to tell you that yes, sure. It’s good! Short and sweet. The bigger question—and one I’m still not sure about—is whether you should pre-order Legacy of the Void to get it. Let me explain. Yesterday, Blizzard…
