Here Are The First Trailers For The Ghost In The Shell Movie

Here’s your first brief look at Scarlett Johansson in motion in the new Ghost in the Shell movie, pointing guns and touching lady’s faces.

Modders Add Multiplayer To Stardew Valley Before The Game’s Developers

Steam farming sensation Stardew Valley finally has multiplayer! Well… unofficially, anyway. Stardew Valley players have been waiting for multiplayer since shortly after the game came out in February, but that particular update is still a seed, rather than a blossoming pumpkin patch or a field overrun by sprightly Pokemon.

Look At This Borderlands PC Case

The cel-shading is so good that this doesn’t look like a photo. It looks like a 3D render that’s trying to look like a photo. It’s a custom build by Ford Ashton, a friend of drummerdks and, for now, it’s just a case, with no actual PC inside. Which is probably for the best. You…

Virtual Reality Is A Nice Place To Play Card Games

Virtual reality can’t fix the disconnect between clicking a card and slamming it down on a table, but playing on a battlefield between two fantasy dimensions certainly helps distract from it. Watch us play High Voltage’s Dragon Front on the Oculus Rift and see for yourself. High Voltage Software might have had trouble landing original…

Steam’s Digital Homicide Fiasco Is Valve’s Fault

It’s been a dramatic handful of days for Steam. Infamous shovelware developer Digital Homicide sued 100 Steam users for $18 million and subpoenaed Valve for their information, at which point Valve booted them and all their games from the service. The worst part? This was all painfully avoidable. The Digital Homicide situation is the culmination…

Popular Fan Game Pokémon Uranium Fully Ceases Development [Update]

A month ago, a Pokémon fan game with nine years of development got shut down by Nintendo. The creators didn’t seem particularly sad about it, though: over a million people downloaded the game, and the devs planned to continue supporting it for those people. But now, that’s changing.
