Let Doc Brown Explain Warlords of Draenor‘s Confusing Timeline

The next WoW expansion, Warlords of Draenor will focus on orcs, but most importantly time travel.

But thanks to Redditor trytech, we might have a saviour, none other than Doc Brown from Back…

Okay, Maybe Call Of Duty: Ghost‘s Spawning Could Use Some Work

Now I’m no first-person shooter expert, but I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t be able to kill the same opponent four times in ten seconds. Not only does YouTube’s Gold Glove kill one guy four times in that time span during this Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer match, he kills another two enemy players while he’s…

A classic fighting game based on Dota 2 and its characters would be a really cool thing, right?

Eat Totally Fake Maguro Sashimi in Japan

Raw maguro (tuna) is served with rice as sushi or without as sashimi. One Japanese company is now introducing phony maguro you can eat. Imagine that!

A few years ago, a Singaporean man named Batman bin Suparman, which means “Batman, Son of Superman” in Malay, became an internet sensation. Well, the named crusader is back. He’s not fighting crime.

Gamers are Bound to Get a Laugh or Two Out of Neptunia: The Animation

Hyperdimension Neptunia: The Animation, based on the game series of the same name, was not on my list of the five anime you should have been watching this past summer, but it may be the anime of last season that gamers will get the most out of. This is because it is chock full of…

Fantasy Hospital Game With Sick Kids In Danger Of Ending In Tears

Rakuen isn’t a game about space marines, or fast cars, or professional sports, or multi-hit combos. Instead, you play a sick young boy stuck in a hospital, who is transported to the fantasy world his mother reads him stories about. Its developers claim inspiration from Maniac Mansion, To the Moon and The Legend of Zelda:…

Bullet Bros Is What Happens When Contra Meets Monty Python

With it’s co-op shooting, Bullet Bros initially looks like Contra, or Gunstar Heroes, or any other retro game where two bros go guns blazing into a 2D battlefield. But then you see the tanks. And the grappling hooks. And the piggybacks. The game’s loaded with physics, as you can see in the trailer, and also…
