I fell asleep once playing Far Cry 4. I was really tired, it was like 4 AM and I passed out driving a car and woke up to an explosion at the bottom of a cliff.

I’ve played this game since the day it came out and I didn’t realize half the stuff shown in this video. I can’t believe the bit where you stand your ground and a bear won’t attack. That’s wild.

Yub nub, assholes.

This is funny, but also, the game on the right does seem more fun. So mission accomplished localization team.

I will never get tired offan art mixing together Doom and Animal Crossing

I remember a friend who had one of these things. It had low batteries and he tossed it into his closet and it randomly started talking in a deep voice at like 3 AM. He got rid of it after that.

Zarude looks like a rude dude.

Interesting seeing Lara pop up in another game as a playable guest character after the news she would be coming to Rainbow Six Siege earlier this month.

Seeing a lot of folks angry about the song choice, but this is a TV ad. I get it. Not everyone likes metal. Some hip-hop in the background might help appeal to more people. Whatever gets more folks playing Doom.
