I’ve never finished watching King Kong, though I still have the copy that came free with my Xbox 360 HD-DVD player.…

Conan O’Brien Finds Other Horrible Games Buried With E.T.
We know E.T. wasn’t the only game excavators found in the Atari landfill dig last weekend. But according to Conan O’Brien, there were even more movie-based flops buried in the New Mexico desert.

Zelda’s Temple of Time, Rebuilt in Unreal Engine 4
The Wii U might not get as many Unreal Engine 4 games as we’d like, and so animator Michael Eurek thought it would be a great idea to recreate the Temple of Time from the Legend of Zelda games, just to show how good an HD Zelda game would look like in 2014. It took…

Sci-Fi Indie Platformer Wants To Be The Next Flashback
This one’s also inspired by Heart of Darkness and Another World—with the latter serving as inspiration for Flashback itself. You could say it’s a game inspired by a game inspired by Another World.

Cerqua used Wildstar’s player housing system to build this spectacular skatepark, called the Galaxy Hoverpark, during the game’s last beta weekend. As you can see in the video…
