Brave Man Invites GlaDOS Into His Home And Onto His Ceiling

When dragonator wanted a new lamp for the roof, he didn’t go and buy one. He made a giant, supremely impressive GlaDOS one. As you do. Built using a 3D printer, as you can see, it barely qualifies as a “lamp” anymore at all. “Elaborate roof sculpture that happens to also illuminate” might be more…

Enjoy Vice City All Over Again As A Fantastic Grand Theft Auto IV “Mod”

It’s been too long since we last saw Vice City Rage in action. Too damn long. An ambitious project aimed at “porting” Rockstar’s classic 2002 game to the more modern Grand Theft Auto IV engine, it may still be looking a little basic in terms of textures, but that modern lighting, physics and handling are…

I Didn’t Mean to Kill You, Beautiful Xenosaga Statue

Of all theGathering statues from e2406.com I’vereviewed, I was most looking forward to their gorgeous 20-inch rendition of Xenosaga‘s T-elos. Some role-players prefer Kos-Mos, but my heart was always with this dark-and-deadly Mary Magdalene cyborg. In the game she nearly took down the entire party all by her lonesome. I took her out with a…

I’m Not Crying. This Charming Gameplay Trailer for Rain Is Very Wet. That’s All It Is.

So there’s been a veritable drought of information about Rain, the clever precipitation-centric adventure shown off at last year’s Gamescom.

The parts where the lead character is stumbling around because the player can’t seem are poignant and…

It’s An RPG… And An RTS… And A Zombie Survival Game

This is State of Decay, a new Microsoft-published Xbox Live Arcade game that might be one of the most ambitious digital titles I’ve ever seen. It’s an RPG, and also an RTS, and also a zombie survival game, and also a simulator, and if you’re confused by all this, I know exactly how you feel.…

The Next Penny Arcade RPG Has A Killer World Map

Gotta love the world map, that humble little collection of icons that offers up a treasure trove of discoveries and possibilities. Penny Arcade’s On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 4, out this spring, has a killer, old-school-styled world map that I really want to dig into. I saw the upcoming RPG at PAX East this…

15 Things You Should Know About Dishonored‘s New DLC

We haven’t talked a lot about Dishonored since it came out last October, which is really too bad, because I think Dishonored is a fantastic game Good news for anyone who agrees with me: we’re getting downloadable content in just a few weeks that will tell a new story in the grisly world of Dishonored.…

Taco Bell Cool Ranch Doritos Tacos: The Snacktaku Review

Oh taco, sweet taco — in terms of pure convenience there is no finer food.
