Kotaku EastChecking Out The PS Vita TV
The PS Vita TV seems kind of confusing if you try to wrap your head around it: So, it’s a PS Vita, but it’s not really portable? And it doesn’t have a screen? You hook it up to your TV? You need a separate controller? Getting some time to actually fiddle with the “world’s smallest…

Here’s How To Get The Best Vehicle In GTA V
Yep, it’s a 747 in GTA V, and it’s easier to find than a Banshee. The strange thing is that you can steal the small private jet, and this massive thing, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to get in the mid-sized jet. By the way, don’t forget a parachute!

Grand Theft Auto V: The Kotaku Review
Rockstar Games has scaled a mountain with Grand Theft Auto V, creating the best-looking, best-sounding and, most importantly, best-playing version of gaming’s most notorious franchise.

Rockstar doesn’t summit that new peak as impressively…

That’s Not How You Fight The Reapers
You don’t see this many Mass Effect cosplayers everyday. Still, I’m not sure they’d have a chance against that Reaper above Dragon Con 2013. That Blasto on the right, maybe he can do some damage. But it’s clearly a one-sided battle. Here’s the original photo, by Soulfire and OrlaRose N7 Elite Costume Group [Facebook] To…
