Now, there’s nothing wrong with your 3DS XL getting a joystick. Heck, more portable consoles should have them. As Inside Games reports, this is the Cyber Arcade Stick from Japanese peripheral maker Cyber Gadget. It’s for the 3DS XL! And with Super Smash Bros. for 3DS soon coming out on… the 3DS, this might be…
Sometimes you can see the darndest things from a car window. Things like this. Recently, images appeared on a Chinese social networking siteshowing a man jogging down the street, with a dog riding what looks kinda like a Segway (but might be this). The images were apparently taken in Shenzhen and then circulated on the…
Back at the Tokyo Game Show last year, I got some hands-on time with Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines. At that time, I said it was the prettiest game I saw at the show. And now, as I play through the full version, I find myself loving the art style more and more. Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines is…
Sierra Interactive used to be one of the great developers (and publishers) in the world of PC gaming. They’ve been dead for a while now, but this teaser website put up by Activision suggests a return (at GamesCom) is imminent. What kind of return that would be is anyone’s guess. We could get a full-blown…
Women’s UFC champion Ronda Rousey is brutal. She is an absolute destroyer of human flesh. She once beat up another woman so quicklythe entire fight fit neatly into a GIF. It’s also a known fact that she is a massive, massive Pokemon fangirl, to the point where she actually moderated a Pokemon forum back in…
We first took a look at it early last year, but indie puzzler Back to Bed is now out. And it’s great! You play a weird dream dog, possibly a spirit creature, who must navigate an isometric dreamscape in order to preserve the life of your sleepwalking self/master, Bob. Bob is walking around the levels…
threezero’s enormous 20″ Titanfall figure is done and regular folks are getting their hands on it. It looks fantastic
Look, Destiny has some cool space wizards and fancy lighting, but as anyone who played the beta can vouch for, the main attraction of the game’s visuals was that sky It’s not that it’s realistic. It’s hyper-realistic. It’s every postcard and Western movie and motivational poster with the sky on it rolled into one. Realising…
What you’re looking at here is the first ever machine to be able to “self-assemble”. In other words, go from one state to another that can be used for…something. Without a human having to ever touch a button or issue a direct command. The result of a joint project between MIT and Harvard, the “origami…

I remember the first time I encountered giant, fire-breathing ants in Fallout 3. I wasn’t afraid—just really itchy. Like, in real life. “This doesn’t seem right,” I thought to myself as I clawed furiously at my otherwise untouched skin. Flash forward a mere six years: science to the rescue! Just in the nick of time.…
The beta version of Valve’s desktop client for Steam just got a surprisingly useful and welcome update. The first thing you’ll notice is a slight visual overhaul, with buttons updated and colours shifted to give them more pop. More importantly, though, especially for heavy users (and those whose pile of shame nags constantly at their…
Character guides. They’re full of need-to-know information about famous characters whose faces might wind upon merchandise. Yesterday, we got a peek at a Nintendo guide that told us Yoshi’s real name. Today, some pages for a Sonic character guide have surfaced, letting us know that, among other things, Sega’s blue mascot hates going slow. Shocker.…
Look, even by their own admission, this movie isn’t great. But the movie isn’t the point. The point is that there’s an entire group of fans in the Czech Republic who dedicated themselves to cosplaying Valkyria Chronicles. Which is awesome
Stealth-horror influenced by Thief and System Shock? Okay, yes, please. This is the pitch video for Solarix, an in-development PC game from KISS Ltd. The developers are in the final hours of a surprisingly modest Kickstarter campaign, which they say they’ll use to add animations, record professional actors, and re-work some of the sound design.
Now that’s what I call retro gaming. One inventive soul hooked up new (and new-ish) games like Watch Dogs and Grand Theft Auto V to a TV set from the 1970’s, and the results look surprisingly cool. This gives the hipster in me so many ideas… imgur via Reddit
Luke already wrote a bit about Eidolon, the zombie-less, crafting-free survival game, but I figured I’d give it a try as well. The game is massive and mysterious, a ringing, pristine silence after a disaster. It really is incredible to explore, even if not a lot happens sometimes. Watch my video and see for yourself.…
