CultureSir, You Can’t Park Your Boat Here
Ilya Dykov is a freelance artist from Belarus. One of his latest projects is The Uncertain, a game which until today I had never heard of but which looks pretty cool! It’s about a robot exploring a world where humans have all died out. Which is generally a good time. You can see more of…

UncategorizedEven Super Mario Maker Can’t Escape Five Nights at Freddy’s
Freddy Fazbear finds a home in the most unlikely of places, I tell you what. Being that the press version of Super Mario Maker will go defunct soon, I thought it would be a good idea to take one last look at what people have made thus far—after tomorrow, it’ll be pretty much dead. To…

UncategorizedThe Truimphant (Digital) Return Of A Sega Legend
Project X Zone 2 is a strategy RPG that’s a little nuts. It stars characters from Mega Man, and Resident Evil, and Devil May Cry, and even Yakuza. Most excitingly, though, it will also star console mascot and personal role model Segata Sanshiro. Don’t know who that is? Here’s a primer. And a video. Video…

Why League Of Legends Won’t Add ‘Two For One’ Characters Like Dota 2’s
One odd thing that sets League of Legends apart from Dota 2 and Heroes of the Storm is the fact that the other games have “characters” who aren’t actually a single character. Rather, they’re a cluster of individual units controlled RTS-style. A Riot designer now says we shouldn’t expect anything like that for League The…

Steam Game Sells Papercraft DLC For You To Print Out
Well, this is a first. I’ve seen all sorts of stuff sold as DLC on Steam—in-game content, soundtracks, art books, etc—but never a pattern that you print out and fold up to make a physical model of a game character. And yet, for the shockingly existent price of $0.99, snazzy looking action adventure Cross of…
