You Americans will soon be cooking up Thanksgiving feasts. I’m thinking of the Australian Christmas BBQ. Either way, we could all look the part in these Zelda aprons, hand-made by Janeille Pita. There are two available, both based on the Wind Waker designs of Link and Zelda. Actually, now I look at them closer they…
Holy shit. An intrepid Elder Scrolls player, curious as to why the game stopped him at the border between Skyrim and Morrowind (the playable landmass of the third game in the series), engaged noclip mode and decided to look beyond. What he claims he found was…the entire continent of Tamriel. The whole damn thing. He…
You might look at a bruise as something to cover up. Hide it until you recover. One Twitter user saw something else: A Pocket Monster. Here, Pokémon Gastly, a black ball of glowing matter surrounded by purple gas, takes the place of an unsightly black-and-blue spot. The text bubble reads, “Ah! A wild Gastly appeared!”,…
It’s funny, considering Killzone 2 was so bleak, Killzone 3 remains one of, if not the best-looking game on the PS3, an explosion of vibrant colours and, amazingly given the franchise, style. Part of that is thanks to the guys at art studio Karakter, who we’ve featured here before, but it’s also down to the…
Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls. Two of the nastiest, most unforgiving game of this console generation. So why the hell are they looking so adorable? It’s the Paul Robertson treatment, the pixel artist turning what were once menacing foes into cuddly friends. You can read our Dark Souls review here. Note it’s not as cute…
At Minecon, Minecraft’s big convention held over the weekend, a panel revealed some terrifying statistics on not just how popular the once-indie darling is, but how often people screw around with it. The development team at Mojang used a talk to reveal the statistics from Minecraft.net, the game’s launchpad of sorts, and those stats are…
On March 11, Japan was hit with a massive earthquake and tsunami. The country was left in ruins. Within days, Japanese game developers began canceling, altering, and postponing games. One game, the latest Disaster Report, got the axe. It was assumed that the game Zettai Zetsumei Toshi 4: Summer Memories, which dealt with the aftershock…
Hey, Stars Wars fans with too much money. Get a load of this. It’s a Hot Toys Luke Skywalker figure. Of the badass, handless, Bespin variety. Just in time for the Christmas wish list of your dreams Really, I don’t know where to start with this. It’s a Hot Toys figure, so you know there’s…
If it exists, there is a porn of it. Steins; Gate exists as an Xbox 360 game and an anime, which means, yep, there is a dirty version of it. This is it. The flick is called Layers; Gate, and it has naked people in it, bumping uglies. Sister site Kotaku Japan posted a comparison…
The next Yakuza game may be the first to spur a complete overhaul of the series, upcoming Ryu Ga Gotoku 5 to offer five playable locations, seamless transitions between battle and chit-chat and an overall game of “massive volume”. [Andriasang]
I think Crecente was a little kind with his Uncharted 3 review. For me, the changes made to the gunplay (namely in the speed and accuracy with which you aim your weapons) nearly killed the game for me, and for an adventure where you spend so much time playing with guns, that’s a big problem.…
Much of Japanese social life revolves around three things: Eating, drinking, and karaoke. Maybe you’re a pro at eating and can hold your own with the bottle, but what to do when you cannot carry a tune? Because, one day, you’re going to need to sing to impress your co-workers or a date. Ah, crap.…
As the headline states, Microsoft announced overnight that the new Xbox 360 dashboard, one designed to bring the company’s user interfaces on console, PC and mobile phone closer together, will be out on December 6. Aside from looking nicer, the new dash also has better (read: more deeply-integrated) voice recognition for Kinect users, while it’ll…
Originally Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D was supposed to be out this December. Then, at September’s Tokyo Game Show, Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima said the game would be out in early 2012. Today, the game creator nailed down an exact date for the game. It will be out March 8, 2012 (he didn’t…
In World of Warcraft, there is Thrall. And Thrall uses a giant hammer called, awesomely, Doomhammer. It used to exist only inside the game. That is, until Harrison Krix got his hands on it. The mastermind behind Volpin Props, whose work we’ve featured before (like his amazing Mass Effect rifle) has hit it out of…
Vector doesn’t only have a customized bedroom, he has a Portal bedroom, complete with Companion Cubes and an Aperture-branded toilet. Ah, to be a kid! There’s also GLaDOS watching over Vector’s room, which I’d say is totally creepy if Vector didn’t seem so deliriously happy about his room. Vector Farr – The Portal Bedroom [YouTube]…
Over the weekend, Beyond Good & Evil creator Michel Ancel gave a talk at the Montpellier in Game conference in France. As a treat, he showed off some concept art and footage from the game’s sequel, the long-in-development Beyond Good & Evil 2 That’s the good news! The bad news is that, because the talk…
There are dragons in the land of Skyrim, sure, but not many. You don’t exactly see them flying around in packs. Unless you use this awesome tweak on the PC version, that is. Bring up the game’s console (hit the tilde, or ` key) and paste the following: player.placeatme 000FEA9B That’ll spawn one dragon, right…
WARNING: This post contains mild Modern Warfare 3 spoilers. Video games are all about the carrot and the stick. You endure repetitive tasks in order to receive just enough of a reward to compel you to complete more repetitive tasks. Why, then, do so few games ever let you get your hands on the carrot…
We’ve seen what Master Fahey did with his character, and now Total Biscuit has posted a video taking an in-depth look at the various races and character classes in BioWare’s upcoming Star Wars MMO The Old Republic. He breaks down the classes and the race restrictions (for example, a Cyborg can only be a bounty…
