First Look at Professor Layton’s Last Adventure

Professor Layton’s adventures are coming to an end, apparently. And they announce that fact proudly in the demo for Professor Layton and the Legacy of The Advanced Civilization A (レイトン教授と超文明Aの遺産).

This Incredible “Real” Minecraft Game Only Uses Two Blocks

On display at the XOXO Indie Arcade event in Portland, this Minecraft project has only two blocks. But they’re real, you can touch them, and if you use the included hammers, you can smash them and they react in much the same way they do in the actual game. If you’re wondering how creator Ben…

Simply the Best Assassin’s Creed Cosplay You’ll Ever See

The HDR photography might make them look a little too much like action figures, but that’s a niggle. Everything else about these two, from the photography to the “acting” to the outfits, is just about perfect. The Dutch pair, dressed as Connor and Aveline (from the Vita’s Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation) respectively, were so impressive…

Tekken‘s Mushroom Battle Mode Gives Tekken a 1-Up

Namco’s Tekken series is making the leap to the Wii U. The fighting game favorite is one of the first big games slotted for the console. But does it pack enough punch on the Wii U? To cater to Wii U players, Nintendo and Namco have tailed the Wii U edition with loads of platform…

Big Publishers Accused of Trying to Manipulate Kickstarter Fever

The last twelve months have seen an outbreak of Kickstarter fever. Old devs, new devs, indie devs, everyone with an idea and some concept art has been scrambling to the service in an attempt to get their dream game made. Part of the appeal for both backers and developers is that, in theory, it removes…

Guild Wars 2 Player Kicks Ass Using Only His Cheek, Mouth

If you’re a Guild Wars 2 player and have ever complained about a sore wrist, or tired eyes, here’s something that might put your issues in perspective. Keith “Aieron” Knight was born with Amyoplasia Arthrogryposis, which basically means he can barely move his body. At all. Yet he still takes on other GW2 players, and…

The Soundtrack to the New Devil May Cry, Compressed Into a Single Trailer

If I had to pick the kind of music that the new, younger Dante would listen to in Ninja Theory’s Devil May Cry reboot, it would… yeah, it would be pretty much this. Wonder what happens in the game to make him grow up to look like a guy who listens to Joy Division and…

Two Months Of Playing Games While Standing Up

About six weeks ago, I wrote an article about how I’d gotten really into playing games while standing up. It sparked all manner of interesting conversation, and I think that I convinced a few people to give standing a shot. Given that I’ve been standing up while working (and playing) for two months now, I…

Okami HD’s Still Looking Colourful as a Vomiting Rainbow

You know, as nice as it’ll be having this in “HD”, the more I think about it, the more I don’t understand why this isn’t a Vita game. Because of the brushes, man. The brushes

Final Fantasy XIV’s TGS Trailer Both Dazzles and Bores

Bombastic cinematic sequences mixed with a few too many shots of characters running awkwardly through empty fields…this can only be a trailer for the once-fundamentally-broken Final Fantasy XIV

Ace Attorney 5’s New Trailer Makes Phoenix Wright Look Even Cooler

You’d expect the first 3D Phoenix Wright/Ace Attorney game to look in motion. And whaddya know, it does. Tastefully done, Capcom, you’ve done a great job maintaining the art style of the DS games while spicing things up a little for the 3D-capable hardware.

You’ll Never Believe Where This Gorgeous New Building Game Comes From

If someone sat me down and presented me with this gorgeous Technicolor dream of a world building-game called Patterns and then asked me what company was responsible for creating it, I could have guessed for hours and never gotten it right. Now, if there’d been a unicorn penis in the trailer… It’s a little sad…

Take That! It’s A New Trailer For Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney

As if I wasn’t going to play the heck out of Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney already, straight out of TGS we’ve got a new trailer for the game that makes it look better than ever. We’ve even got a quality shot of Phoenix and Maya talking, with real voices! Awesomely, Phoenix will be voiced…

Dante is Still Punching Bill O’Reilly in the Face

We first saw this back at GamesCom, but here in these new screens for Capcom’s upcoming DMC, we get to see Dante once again playing some chin music for a conservative news pundit who is totally not Fox’s Bill O’Reilly

Might the West Actually Give a Damn About Monster Hunter 4?

I doubt it. But bless Capcom and Nintendo for trying. Here’s the TGS trailer for the upcoming monster battler, which is coming out for the 3DS.

Okami HD will be out on the North American PlayStation Store on October 30.

Watch Valve Set Up A Real, Working Portal Turret

Well, I mean, I don’t think it will shoot you. But this Portal turret does everything but that—it even has a working motion detector! We’d already seen this little guy in action before, but this official video from Valve is a lot cooler. Okay, time to see how much it’d cost to get one of…
