The more television technology advances, the harder it is to keep our classic consoles hooked up.

If you had any doubt that the cult of Helix fossil, one of the “religions” formed around Twitch Plays Pokémon, is a serious thing, here’s proof. Someone sprayed this masterpiece recetnly on a seemingly useless cement block, in front of a school. This must be one of those moments when graffiti becomes art instead of…

The Evolution of the Tetris Song from 1987 to Today

When you think of Tetris, you no doubt hear a song bouncing around your head.

Adult toys brand Vorze is releasing what it is calling the world’s first “sexual home appliance.” Note: This article contains content some readers might find objectionable.

Puyo Puyo Tetris Blends Two Classics into One Awesome Game

I love Tetris. It’s one of the rare games I have played off and on for the past 20 years. But, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t think it could use a little extra something to mix it up from time to time. And sure enough, mixing it with fellow puzzle classic Puyo…

Godzilla Had the Best Summer Vacation Ever

There’s a new Snickers ad with Godzilla in it just in time for the new movie. Did I say Godzilla? Because the whole thing looks just like an imaginary Denver, the Last Dinosaur movie.

Non Non Biyori is a Lighthearted Romp in the Japanese Countryside

When most people think of anime, they think of intense action or perhaps a moé love story. But anime, just like books, TV, and movies, can be about anything—even about the everyday lives of four normal girls in the Japanese countryside. Good – Life in Rural Japan If Non Non Biyori does one thing right,…

A Game Where You Don’t Play As Someone. You Play As Everyone.

sonder is a sci-fi third-person action adventure game. So far so expected, but it has a neat twist: you’re not playing as a single character. Instead, while the narrative plays out, you’re free – and encouraged – to switch between characters and play the role of anyone in the game. The idea being that while…

Metal Gear Solid V Just Got Real

Yeah, we posted some images from this same Metal Gear cosplay shoot only recently. But screw it, because these news ones that just landed on my desk are way better. This is what happens when cosplayer Rick Boer and photographer Cynthia Veekens get together. It’s called magic.
