MMO-racer The Crew will be a few weeks late, arriving on December 2 instead of November 11, Ubisoft announced in a blog post. Good news is that this means there will be another closed beta test, which Ubisoft says they’re planning to carry out in November, this time on the PS4 and the Xbox One.

Meet Wang Zhengyang. He’s being hailed as his country’s “youngest hacker” and has started giving presentations on internet security. And he’s apparently using his powers for good. According to Want China Times, Wang is 13 years old, but CCTV, China’s largest television network, says he is 12 years old. I’m sure somewhere in China there…

The Horror Of 554 Simpsons Couch Gags All Going Off At Once

Here’s 25 years’ worth of Simpsons couch gags. All playing at the same time. You (by which I mean your ears) have been warned. The horror. The collective lurching death dirge—as though 25 years of pop culture suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced—weirdly reminds me of the noise Futurama‘s Hypnotoad makes. COINCIDENCE?…

​Watch People Panic And Die In Alien: Isolation

Alien: Isolation isn’t exactly a “fun” game to play. It’s super stressful and really difficult. It’s definitely fun to watch other people play it, however. Once this game is out, I sense there will be a lot of good times to be had watching people hide, flee, and panic as they attempt to survive. In…

If A Game Looks This Good In GIFs, It’s Doing Something Right

I am a man of simple tastes. I like games with fluid animation, and I like making animated GIFs. When I get to combine those two things, boy howdy am I a happy camper. That’s the trailer for Children of Morta, an indie dungeon-crawler from the folks at Dead Mage. Its sprites are reminiscent of…

Shadow of Mordor Player Pulls Off Massive Betrayal

Sauron’s entire high command, all going after a single warchief at once. He never stands a chance. Confused about what happens in the clip? Shadow of Mordor grants players the ability control and dominate orcs, which in turn lets a player plant orcs in Sauron’s high command. In this case, that power is used so…

A Game That Makes BioShock Look Downright Normal

The Black Glove, which is being made by ex-BioShock devs, looks like BioShock‘s zanier child, but it certainly doesn’t play anything like it. For one, no guns. For two, space minotaurs. Three, it’s about a surreal trans-dimensional 1920s theater. It sounds really, really cool. And super weird. The Black Glove takes place in a trans-dimensional…

Adam Carolla Taunts Children To Celebrate The New Skylanders

In celebration of the launch of Skylanders: Trap Team, Activision planted hidden cameras all over a Toys’R’Us and piped the voice of comedian and podcast master Adam Carolla through the game’s demo kiosk. Then the taunting begins. When a villain is trapped in one of the game’s crystal prisons and inserted into the plastic glowing…

How To Mod Your 3DS To Play Smash Bros. With A Gamecube Controller

As soon as Nintendo released a demo for Smash Bros., it seemed like technical-minded people rushed to find ways to be able to play the game as it was meant to be played: with a controller. And now you can do it, too…provided you have the right tools and don’t mind fiddling with the insides…

AC Unity Will Have Same Specs On Xbox One and PS4 To Avoid ‘Debates’ [UPDATE]

Video game publisher Ubisoft is taking a whole lot of fire today after one of their developers implied that the company intentionally limited one version of the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Unity in order to maintain graphical parity with the other. It started with a quote from Ubisoft Montreal producer Vincent Pontbriand, speaking to the website…

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is coming to PC in December. The open-world prologue game is hitting Steam on December 18th, to be precise. It came out on consoles earlier this year, and Kirk compared it to (very good) food.
