Everyone’s got a wishlist of changes they’d like to see in Destiny But at least one group of fans actually took the time to show people what their wishlist would look like in action, and it’s neat to watch. The changes requested here by Micah Bell all make sense. You’ve got shaders for guns, which…
At this year’s PAX East, there’s no problem at all with getting a bunch of Spartans together to have a good time. Maybe it’ll happen on the Xbox One eventually It’s the first day of Penny Arcade’s annual fan gathering and East Coast geeks aren’t letting the snow and cold stop them from breaking out…
People sure love to tweet weird shit at Pewdiepie, YouTube’s biggest star. It’s usually in good fun. But still, it’s hard not to be struck by the fact that literally hundreds of people are tweeting some variation of “FIST ME” or “FIST ME, SENPAI” at Pewdiepie right at this very moment: These are some of…
March! March, you apes! You wanna live forever? Yes, it’s March, which means it’s basically spring. Daylight savings is about to give us longer days, the weather is getting warmer, and there are a lot of really good new (and old) video games to play. For my part, I’m mostly playing Metroid Prime, and for…
This is how you do downloadable content. I have nothing but good things to say about Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate’s DLC. Today, the developers released a new batch of content, all of it free. It includes new quests, Palicos, weapons, and gear—including some stuff themed after The Legend of Zelda. The DLC lets you craft…
It’s been a few month since PlayStation 4’s troubled 2.0 update, and while Sony hasn’t made any announcements about what’s coming, players have started getting invitations to beta test the next update. It looks like the PS4 is getting some cool new features, including system-level button remapping and a proper suspend mode. UPDATE (6:30 pm):…
This is messed up, man. Really messed up. Check out this monstrous recreation of the Five Nights at Freddy’s mascot. Built by Dr.CreepyPasta, it’s a real animatronic that can move and talk. Naturally, Freddy’s voice is nightmare fuel. It’s perfect, in that “why the fuck would anyone make this” sort of way. The Freddy can…
Friday means it’s time to start winding down the week, reaching for a cold beverage, and being mentally stimulated by a bunch of really great commentary, criticism, and observations about video games. Right? That’s what everyone does on their Friday! I better not be alone on this one. Fine…let’s get on with it. Hey, You…
OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood will drive perfectionists crazy, because they’ll want to master everything about the each of the game’s intricately tricky levels before moving on to the next one. That way lies madness. And ridiculous amounts of fun. Out this week for PS4 and Vita, the follow-up for Roll7’s sharply-realized skating sidescroller improves just…
Calling all League of Legends players: how do you feel about Urgot? Is he really that bad? Are you happy Riot is reworking him, or do you think he’s fine in his current post-nerf state? I’ve seen a lot of talk about Urgot, most not very nice. Since he’s free right now, I’m hoping to…
“Everyone’s mean. Except for this one nice… We’ll make her a girl. And then we’ll murder the girl. We’ll just murder the girl.” You probably know a thing or two about how Final Fantasy saved a company called Square from bankruptcy back in the late 80s, but did you know that creator Hironobu Sakaguchi developed…
In the past, I’ve expressed a healthy amount of skepticism about VR. In 20 minutes, Valve’s VR demo sold me on the concept. Mostly. I was there. One second, I was in a small, bland cubicle room with a Valve employee and his good friend, a shelf, and the next I was in a pristine…
Fallout lore by ShoddyCast is back—this time they’re looking at the part of the wasteland that gave rise to human-like androids (as well as one of the best quests in Fallout 3, The Replicated Man). Contact the author at [email protected]
After the initial cast of Overwatch was revealed, some folks, like feminist critic Anita Sarkeesian, lamented that the female characters in the team-based shooter were all svelte.Today, Blizzard revealed two new characters, and one of them is a direct response to those types of criticisms. Meet Zarya. According to Blizzard, she is a Russian soldier…
Blizzard announced a bunch of new goodies that are coming to its fresh-faced MOBA Heroes of the Storm today at PAX East. Another map, which looks very cool, is being added to the game. More importantly, however, there’s a rad hero character incoming: Sylvanas. Here’s her official trailer, assuming you’re into that sort of thing:…
This weekend at PAX East in Boston, convention goers can visit a Monster Hunter caravan… or at least, a pretty decent recreation. The caravan was created in partnership with iam8bit, and has some pretty great props. Stephen Totilo stopped by on his tour of the PAX show floor and snapped some pictures.; I’m still too…
Forget the part of Five Nights at Freddy’s that involve clicking on cameras and screaming at jump scares. The thing that really delights hardcore fans is all the easter eggs and secrets the FNAF games hold—and Five Nights at Freddy’s 3 has loads of em. PrettyGrumpyBear has been compiling a list of cool things that…
If there’s a new trailer for Gigantic, I’m compelled to watch the whole thing from start to finish. Gigantic is a team-based action game coming from James Phinney, the lead designer on StarCraft, in which tiny combatants fight alongside huge monsters. It’s supposed to arrive on both Xbox One and PC sometime later this year,…
Riot released an animated short yesterday that gives a backstory for The Bard, League of Legends’ newest incoming champion. Like all things League, the film is very cool. So cool, in fact, that you might find yourself thinking: “Hey, I bet this game has a killer story!” But what is that story? I have no…
