How People Actually Play Grand Theft Auto V

Rockstar always tries to sell its Grand Theft Auto games with fancy trailers. Moody music, social commentary, beautiful sunsets. The thing is, that’s not how anybody actually plays Grand Theft Auto. They usually play it like this. With lots of car crashes. And senseless violence. And…axes to the butt? This fantastic video was put together…

How To Pull Off Super Mario World’s Most Incredible Glitch

Super Mario World has a crazy glitch where players can warp to the end of the game without actually playing through it. Normally, this glitch might be impossible for all but the most hardcore of players—but with practice, it’s something you can do, too. Mind, doing the infamous “end credits warp” is not easy. Anyone…

What could possibly be better than Taylor Swift’s hit 2014 song “Shake It Off?” Setting the lyrics to music from Mario Kart, obviously.

Developer BioWare Austin has officially cancelled their online game Shadow Realms. Last month we reported that the 4v1 multiplayer game was in flux and that it might have been rebooted—but we hear things changed very recently.

Remember how Microsoft was setting a beta test for a patch that would hopefully resolve many of the problems plaguing Halo: The Master Chief Collection? Well, that beta was pushed back and then cancelled altogether. The “content update” is still coming but will only be tested internally now.

Current Obsession: Apotheon, A Metroid On Mt. Olympus That’s A Tad NSFW

I was going to finish Watch Dogs, start Dying Light, get back to Transistor, maybe finally try Metal Gear Solid Ground Zeroes. That was my PS4 plan last week. Then I started playing Apotheon and discovered I have a weakness for Metroid-style games set on Mt. Olympus. You might, too. Above, I’ve narrated about 12…

What Buying Evolve Gets You

If you’re planning on grabbing Evolve when it launches tomorrow, you’ll pretty much be getting a multiplayer experience similar in concept to Left 4 Dead where you can take on one of three monsters as one of 12 hunters (or vice versa).
