‘My Idol’ Is The Internet’s Funniest New Obsession

If you’ve been on Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, or Vine lately, then you’ve probably seen pictures or videos of strange, cartoony characters recently. Maybe they’re pole dancing. Maybe they’re singing Frozen’s Let It Go. Maybe they have a celebrity’s face. Or maybe they look like a monstrosity that shouldn’t exist. You can thank an app called…

A Game That Keeps Going Even If You Kill Everyone

No matter who you kill in Westerado, the story keeps going. Even if you kill a main character. You might have heard of Westerado before. It was released as a browser game on Adult Swim’s website in 2013, but it’s been reworked and enhanced as Westerado: Double Barreled on Steam. The open world adventure game…

Mortal Kombat X, As Told By Steam Reviews

Mortal Kombat X didn’t have the smoothest launch on PC. Steam users are understandably upset about this—but even in trying times, they still make sure to crack a joke or two. The Steam reviews for Mortal Kombat X are, as of this writing, mostly negative. But people are still having fun with it all. You…

House Of Wolves Will Change Destiny In Some Huge (Possibly Great) Ways

During a livestream today, Bungie shared a bunch of new information on the upcoming second expansion pack for Destiny, a video game named after a Calvin Klein fragrance.

The Best Video Game Rumors From The Early 90s

Electronic Gaming Monthly used to be my bible. Every month, I’d flip through the pages, and dream of the future. Quartermann was EGM’s rumormonger, and I hung on his every word. Rumors have been part of video games forever, and it’s no different in 2015 than it was in 1993. The difference between then and…

The Door That Drove Bloodborne Fans Nuts 

Inside the world of Bloodborne, there is a door. You can interact with the door. You cannot, however, open this door. And this fact drove people up a wall. What in the world was behind the door? And why could nobody open it despite repeated playthroughs? Was it hiding treasure? Was it for DLC, maybe?…

Mortal Kombat X: The Kotaku Review

New, younger Kombatants. Built-in options to play a particular character in completely different ways from someone else using the very same martial artist. More gore, but also more emotional plot points. The option to pay for easier Fatalities. Mortal Kombat is changing. This is a next-generation Mortal Kombat in more ways than one. MKX is…

World of Warcraft‘s Toughest Boss, Killed In Under 3 Minutes

With better gear, people will do more and more crazy things in Warlords of Draenor’s current raid. This insanely fast and impressive kill of Blackrock Foundry badass end-boss on Heroic difficulty is a good example. What takes endless tries and around eight minutes of concentration for regular guilds took only 2 minutes and 58 secs…

Nice animated Ninja Turtles redesigns! Artist Alex Redfish geared them up and gave all four of them a pretty badass look. Raph with a cigar, Donatello with a tablet and goggles. It’s the exact opposite of the ones in the classic cartoons. To contact the author of this post, write to: [email protected]

Some Japanese Fans Are Skeptical about the Attack on Titan Movie 

The Attack on Titan movie is not out yet. The trailers look pretty good! Don’t tell that to the haters in Japan. Of course, not everyone in country dislikes what they’ve seen so far. And I do think the movie should do well, just based on the built-in fan base and the ability of the…

Sorry, Yes, Animation Is Also Games Art

You know what, someexceptionsaside, I don’t feature the work of animators nearly enough here on Fine Art. So let’s change that tonight. This is the showreel of Enrico Schoebben, an animator from Germany, and it highlights both his keyframe work and motion-capture editing. Note the heavy presence of TF2 stuff: yes, the Source Filmmaker is…

Grand Theft Auto V Just Broke My Heart

Thanks a lot, AVEENTOR. I didn’t need these eyes for not sobbing salty waterfalls everywhere or anything. The Steam Community Showcase is a regular look at the cream of the Steam community’s boundless crop. Art, videos, guides—whatever. Each installment highlights a specific piece or person. If you find anything cool on Steam or would like…
