Batman v Superman director Zack Snyder just tweeted a poster that gives us our first look at another of the movie’s stars: Jason Momoa — aka Khal Drogo — as Aquaman It’s just a poster, so there’s no reason to go nuts one way or the other, but the “scales” tattoos are a nice touch.!…
This is super corny, but somehow it, still works. Nice editing!
In 1992, Atari released an arcade brawler called Guardians of the Hood. Because it was 1992, and because it was Atari circa 1992, the commercial for the game looked like this. (via Arcade Heroes)
Trials Fusion is a side-on motorbike game. It is not a first-person shooter. In fact it’s about sa far from a first-person shooter as you’re going to get. So it’s magic that you can take the game’s map editor and build a replica of Call of Duty: Zombies with it. It took Pneumatic Bog three…
Rejoice, Danganronpa fans: the spinoff shooter Danganronpa: Another Episode is coming to North America this fall. It’s also for the Vita, and it’s set between Danganronpa and Danganronpa 2
We’re trying something a little different today on Fine Art. Instead of showcasing the work of someone who makes games, we’re looking at the art of someone who works around games. Stephen Maurice Graham is an illustrator who has worked for publications like Vice, GQ and The Sunday Times. He does a lot of video…
Had League of Legends been released in the 90s, it might have been released on a floppy disk. Okay, make that a ton of floppy disks. Here’s a funny take on what a League of Legends commercial from the 90’s might have looked like. In a word: cheesy. Very cheesy. But that’s exactly what makes…
This is the second time in two days I’ve seen a trailer for a game that’s about building a castle by hand then trying to knock someone else’s castle down. It’s a…weirdly niche kind of genre, when you think about it, but if this is the latest thing people are rushing to try their hands…
Well, this is certainly one way to deal with gamer rage. Martin “AmbossTV” Rabl has a habit of getting mad at Fifa 15. A little too mad. As someone who suffers from the occasional bout of flailing, wailing gamer rage, I can identify. Rabl’s solution? A shock collar—yes, the kind intended to keep dogs from…
Destiny, an online shooter in which you travel the universe not getting Gjallarhorn, is getting another big patch soon, and some of the new tweaks are not going to be welcomed by longtime players. Despite the fact thathardcore players are hitting a wall, at least partly due to Bungie’s insistence upon forcing everyone to play…
“You Are Getting Old” reminder: people are now grown up, looking back fondly to their childhoods and cosplaying as Kim Possible (and doing an excellent job!). Cosplay by Danielle Beaulieu, photo by Jaycee Photography (viafashionably geek).
In the mood for adventure? And uncomfortable feelings about puberty? Then you should check out Clickhole’s hilariously bizarre pulp adventure parody game, The Mysterious Shadows Of Skullshadow Island. It’s about growing up, murder, bad rock ballads, and murder. Think Venture Bros, only somehow darker. Make sure to play to the end. No, the real end.
Hello, Internet! Welcome to Ask Dr. NerdLove, the only dating advice column that managed to rescue Quickclaw and Rhonda in Pitfall II. That’s right! ATARI 2600, BABY. (ahem) This week, one reader is getting tired of being constantly told he’s “too nice” to date – so how does one become more exciting to potential partners?…
Reading the comments on my current survey about how publishers have violated gamers’ trust, it is clear that business practices around downloadable content have left a bad taste in many gamers’ mouths. “On-disc or day 1 DLC is just greedy.” wrote one gamer, expressing a popular opinion that DLC is part of the nickel and…
I’ve never encountered a more tribal community of fans than worshippers of the Souls games. There may not be another game series where more people are ready to tell you how wrong you are. For me, the criticism began when I picked my class for a playthrough of Demon’s Souls Demon’s Souls was released in…
Video games have a blackness problem. This has been a known thing for a while, and we do talk about it from time to time. But I’d like to keep talking about it. When they appear at all, black video game characters are often reduced to outdated, embarrassing stereotypes. It’s commonly accepted that part of…
The thing that makes this video so hard to turn away from isn’t the success. It’s all the stubbornness of trying to get there. We’ve all been there: some weird idea about a gameplay feat gets into your head and you just can’t shake it. That’s clearly what happened to the player in this video…

The World Ends With You is broken on iOS 8, and has been for a long time, to the point where Square Enix pulled it from the app store last week because it just doesn’t work. Square tells Kotaku they’re still working on a fix for the role-playing game—which was originally released on the DS…
