The Best Thing About The New Vita Themes Is The Menu Music

For more than two and a half years we’ve been dealing with the same PlayStation Vita menu music. The last thing I wanted from the PlayStation TV was that same damn piece playing on my television set.

GTA V Jet Pilots Are The Best Jet Pilots

I know that the awesomeness of Grand Theft Auto V’s skilled daredevils is well established at this point.

Sims Sure Love Selfies

For whatever reason, seeing this post by Dubzophrenia on The Sims subreddit made me realize something: all of my Sims are constantly taking selfies. They’re cute most of the time, but a lot like real selfies, they can get…pretty darn annoying at other times. Does this happen to you too?

The Honest Dark Souls Trailer Is Not Just About The Difficulty

We all know by now that the Souls games can be hard and painful and luckily Smosh Games’ latest Honest Trailer is not just a clip about that. It rather makes fun of neglected topics such as the community, the art direction… and the games’ connection to Cat Mario. The title says Dark Souls, but…

Angry Birds Transformers Is Out Today. Fans Should Grab It.

And by “you” I mean old-school Transformers fans, for while the game is a bit of a free-to-play time-sink, it’s got the touch and power of a project put together by 1980s-era fans. Rovio’s birds and pigs are disguised as robots in disguise, but this isn’t a game about Autobirds Vs. Deceptihogs, nor is it…

If Dreamworks Made A Zelda Animation

I can totally imagine this scene: a seagull—voiced by Morgan Freeman—gives life-changing advices to a computer-animated Link from Wind Waker or from any of the Zelda games. Illustrator Cassio Yoshiyaki drew something similar to this idea with Link and Zelda from The Wind Waker, and both of them look realy great Toon Link by Cassio…

The controller thrower guy above in Dorkly’s recent comic is not even the most frustrated one. The silent types below look a lot scarier. This is really accurate, but they might have forgotten that you could meet really cool and chill people online too. Or maybe it’s just me getting lucky with StarCraft’s matchmaking. Click…

The Pancake Dead

Pancake art is a thing. It’s just the world we live in now. That said I’m impressed anyone can coax recognisable images of The Walking Dead cast out of eggs, flour and milk. It’s the work of Nathan Shields (via Neatorama) who’s created a range of characters over on his blog Random Breakfasts Check out…

Someone Built A “Working” iPhone Inside Minecraft

Every time I think I’m sick of seeing stuff made in Minecraft, along comes something like this to make me exhale deeply and wonder how we haven’t solved world peace yet.

Dead Or Alive, These Robocop Figures Are Coming With Me

Hot Toys have, I’m going to assume, gone back in time to 1987, captured Peter Weller, brought him back to 2014, shrunk him down and put him in a box. That’s the only explanation I can think of as to why this new toy looks so damn perfect. The company is actually releasing two Robocop…
