Yeah, it’s being presented in French but Smash Bros is a universal language, non? The stream of the console version of Nintendo’s all-star brawler comes as part of Paris Games Week, with show attendees playing each other. No surprise that there’s a lot of Little Mac and Rosalina usage so far. [via NeoGAF]

So good. Might have to steal this idea for Friday… via Reddit

They Weren’t Kidding When They Said Final Fantasy Type-0 Was Dark

A couple months ago at PAX Prime, Final Fantasy Type-0 director Hajime Tabata told reporters that this game was dark. Really dark. “It’s a much more mature game than what you’ve seen before,” he said. It seemed very much like a PR talking point—we’re mature, and gritty!—but damn if this new Type-0 HD trailer doesn’t…

​Mike Tyson Tries to Beat Mike Tyson in Punch-Out

Last year, Mike Tyson played the old-school boxing game named after him, purportedly for the first time. He beat Glass Joe in that effort. This time, he’s facing a lot somebody tougher: himself. The infamous former heavyweight champion was a guest on The Late Tonight Show With Starring Jimmy Fallon last night, picking up an…

How To Get All 42 New Mounts in Warlords of Draenor

World of Warcraft‘s fifth expansion is not out yet, but thanks to its beta, it’s more or less clear what we’ll be facing, including the tons of new mounts. BellularGaming’s guide is just perfect for mount collectors, showing how to obtain all of them after Draenor goes live. That’s a lot of ground mounts, but…

Sega, Do The Right Thing

Here’s a 15-minute trailer for Yakuza Zero, the latest entry in a fantasticseries that Sega, in its infinite wisdom, has not announced for a Western release. Watch it, then sigh deeply, as though the very earth itself was despairing through your mortal lungs.

One Hell Of A Video Game Coffee Table Book

If you have any video game coffee table books, they’re probably about concept art, or maybe even cosplay. But Every Day is Play is a little different. It’s just about games, and nice art, and how that art (and our enjoyment of it) is just a really cool way to celebrate video games. Originally a…

I Wish This Was Actually How They Made PS4s

To help sell the fancy Metal Slime edition of the PS4, Sony has released this Japanese commercial. And it’s fantastic. Dragon Quest fans will love the little touches in this. If there was an option to buy a ridiculously heavy, hand-crafted steel PS4, I would seriously consider it. Just not sure how I’d get it…

Valve Won’t Let Hackers Ruin Team Fortress 2‘s Halloween

Halloween makes people do strange things—for instance dress up in costumes and beg for candy from people who might be murderers. Sometimes it also makes them create Team Fortress 2 cheat plugins that teleport players between Halloween items, which ruins the game. It’s a trick alright, but it’s definitely not a treat. Team Fortress 2‘s…

Destiny LEGO Is Easier To Level

Oh hey, that’s my ship. That’s my ship, right down to the colour scheme! It’s a great take on Destiny as it is, courtesy of Jayfourke, but there’s something about it being a take on the same ship I see hovering on loading screens every day that makes me love it that little bit more.…

One Cheapo Accessory Made My PS4 Controller Way Better

I really like Sony’s DualShock 4 controller. I use it a lot, both for playing games on PS4 and also, lately, for PC games. But there is one aspect I’m not wild about: Those slippery thumbsticks. I like how the thumbsticks respond—they’re nice and springy, and are a good height. But I don’t love the…

One Of EA’s Best Games Is Old, But Also Free

Maybe because it’s never got a modern remake, maybe it’s because you wore a silly red helmet, but EA’s Crusader: No Remorse has never got the love and respect it deserves from a 21st century world. Maybe that’ll change now that everybody can play the game for free. First released in 1995, it’s an isometric…

Fed Up With Steam, Devs Unite To Get Extra Greenlight Votes [UPDATED]

Steam Greenlight was originally envisioned as a way for fans to help select which games would make it onto Valve’s ridiculously ubiquitous PC gaming storefront. Unfortunately, it’s kinda busted sometimes. A group of game creators has decided to take matters into their own hands by gaming the system. Kinda. Indie GameDev Greenlight is a recently…
