Off-road truck simulator Spintires is now out on Steam, exactly one year after the successful conclusion of its Kickstarter campaign. The launch trailer, which was released a few weeks ago, should be able to show you what the finished game is like (though I believe the actual game has significantly less wubs).

I Am Totally in Love with Persona Q’s Cute Character Redesigns

I’m a pretty big fan of Persona 3 and 4—especially of their dark color palette and creepy visuals. So, if you would have told me a year ago I would love the chibi character designs of Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth, I never would have believed you. …But they’re just so cute! Take a…

Godzilla Invades a Tokyo Park

Hollywood’s latest take on Godzilla hasn’t yet opened in Japan. But when it does later next month, there will be a huge statue in a Tokyo park to mark the event. Starting July 18 and wrapping up on August 31, the Tokyo Midtown Green and Park will be home to a 1/7 scale Godzilla. IT…

Two Men Arrested for Allegedly Stealing…320 Yu-Gi-Oh! Cards

I reckon there are things thieves brag about stealing: diamonds, exotic cars, and priceless art. Wonder where Yu-Gi-Oh! cards fall into that mix. Especially ones stolen from high school students. Yu-Gi-Oh!, of course, is an enjoyable card game, spawned from the manga of the same name. Some of the rare Yu-Gi-Oh! cards fetch a pretty…

Enough Mortal Kombat X Gameplay Footage To Stab A Spine With

New characters, old characters, new stages, new moves. This is a huge gameplay demonstration of the latest Mortal Kombat game, presented by series creator Ed Boon.

Like Blade Runner? Try This PC Classic

You probably missed it since you’re coming down from E3 madness, but a very special game was released on Steam today. It’s called Mean Streets. Well, these days thanks to branding (the game saw the debut of the character) it’s called Tex Murphy: Mean Streets, but back in 1989 when it was first released it…

Oh Good, They’re Fixing The Worst Thing About Assassin’s Creed

There’s a lot to like about Assassin’s Creed, but the series also has a host of long-running annoyances, chief among them the infuriating way you’ve had to “tail” people from the shadows. So thank the heads of various religious faiths and beliefs that the way you do this is changing for the upcoming Assassin’s Creed:…

Sushi Joint At Nintendo HQ Closed For “Potentially Hazardous Foods”

The dubious quality of Nintendo’s eateries has been a touchy subject for a while now, and that saga continues with the temporary closure of a vendor operating at Nintendo of America’s headquarters. According to a detail listed in a recent update on the public health section of the King County website, the food vendor “I…

Nintendo Is Planning A Future For Both 2D And 3D Metroid

Time to get your hopes up, Metroid fans. The series no-showed E3, but you might be heartened by what the men overseeing Nintendo’s game development had to say about it. Cutting to the chase, they say they’re talking internally about what to do about the series and that they’d like to talk about what’s next…

Harrison Ford Has Been Injured By The Millennium Falcon

Veteran actor Harrison Ford has been injured on the set of Star Wars: Episode VII, hurting his ankle and having to spend a little time in hospital. The culprit? His own ship. The injury isn’t serious, but it’s notable because Variety’s Marc Graser reports that he busted it on the door of the Millennium Falcon:…
