Garrus Cosplay Is The Perfect Mass Effect Tribute
I’ve seen some quality Garrus cosplay in my time, but never something this damn impressive. There’s so much quality here, from the brushed metal effect on the armour to the hands, but it’s the face that gets me. It’s just so perfect. Cosplay is by Sarrah Wilkinson, photos by Sam Mort

Rest In Peace, Age Of Empires
Today, July 1, Age of Empires Online is no more. Few will mourn its passing, but many more will nevertheless look to its demise as a sad event, given the attachment people once had to the words “Age of Empires”. The first Age of Empires, released in 1999, was amazing. As was its medieval sequel.…

UncategorizedNew App From The Designer Of The Video Game Sequence In Her
I spent around ten hours with Mountain, the new app by David OReilly, who directed an episode of Adventure Time and the video game sequence in Her. I thought it would be unique and intriguing.

UncategorizedSplinter Cell: The Younger Years Is Something I Could Watch
A dark, moody film about the early days of Sam Fisher sounds like the kind of thing Hollywood would want to dabble in. They’ve been beaten to the punch, though, by this impressive-looking fan project. You have no idea how many of these sorts of things we see every week. No idea. And so many…

Riot Sets Fire To League Of Legends’ Awful Public Chat Rooms
League of Legends’ public chat rooms have long been crawling with scammers and all other manner of assholes. So developers Riot have decided to shut them down. It’s a decision that’s all down to moderation. Or lack of it. The way the rooms are currently built means that there’s only an “ignore” button available, when…

UncategorizedReal-Life Fruit Ninja Is Very Dangerous With A Knife
He slices. He dices. And it all looks a lot more fun than running your finger across a phone screen. I pressed play on this and thought, whatever man, I can do that one or two times in a row. Then he kept going. And going. And going. And he absolutely will not stop, ever,…

What Are You Playing This Month?
Sometimes it feels like the idea of a video game “dry spell” is a thing of the past. Other times, there really aren’t that many new games and it’s time to dig into the backlog. Here at the start of July, it feels a little more like one of those latter times. Then again, the…

ReviewsPlayStation Vita Review Update: Two And A Half Years Later
The PlayStation Vita has come a long way in the last two and a half years.

Your Favorite Atari Games Are Now Advertisements For Denny’s
It’s a dispiriting law of nature, but everything in pop culture eventually grows old and starts to lose its edge. Thankfully, corporate sponsors are always ready to step up and put a stop to this uncontrollable slide towards obsolescence. That, or just make it worse.
