The Unluckiest Grand Theft Auto Player In The World

I’m sure this guy has had some good games of Grand Theft Auto Online, where everything just went his way. This was not one of those games. It’s actually a little surprising he lasted that long… En Şanssız GTA V Oyuncusu [YouTube, via John Romero]

​What Did You Think Of The Game of Thrones Premiere?

Everyone’s back, and everything’s different, and you can just tell that at some point soon, everything’s going to fall apart. Welcome back to Game of Thrones! Of course it’s all going to fall apart—what else would really happen in Westeros, after all? This isn’t really a place where things arrive at a comfortable status quo…

Goats With Friends: good news, there will be DLC for Goat Simulator, including a new map, local splitscreen, new achievements, more goats and more—all dropping in May, and all free. Woo!

Meet The World’s Coolest Character Creation System

When I first saw Korean MMO Black Desert last year, I thought it looked too good to be true. Now it’s looking way too good to be true. The developers (Pearl Abyss) released this video today showing the game’s character creation suite, and it just blows every other character creation suite in video games out…

Here is a lovely comic about ducks. Well, it’s about a lot more than that, really. Ducks is the latest from the brilliant Kate Beaton; it’s an unusually long work for her, a five-parter that tells the story of her time working at a Fort McMurray mining site in 2008. Find all five parts here

Luftrausers‘ Nazi Controversy Isn’t Censorship. It’s A Discussion

Giant Bomb‘s Patrick Klepek wrote a great piece about the Luftrausers Nazi kerfuffle, in which people pondered if the arcade-y shooter is about playing as a super cool, er, Nazi. Developer Vlambeer politely disagreed and explained its intentions, but also acknowledged the complaint as valid. That’s basically amazing. I highly recommend that you read Klepek’s…

The Dragon Ball Z Game We Deserve

Hyper Dragon Ball Z might look like a forgotten arcade game of the 1990’s, but it’s actually a modern Dragon Ball game made by super fans in the indie fighting game engine, Mugen. And boy does the game look fantastic (the way it plays, sure, but also: dem sprites, tho.) (Skip to about :45 seconds, if…

​Guy Forges The Blade From Blade, Annihilates Watermelon With It

I haven’t seen Blade in a while, but one of my primary memories of the film is when Wesley Snipes whips out his multi-bladed chakram and wipes out like, five thousand vampires at once. Blood everywhere! Sunglasses! Trenchcoat! (My memory might be a bit spotty, it’s been a while.) The latest video from Man at…

​Fan-Made GTA V Trailer Makes You Want to Play It All Over Again

Feels like a lot like something Martin Scorcese would do, doesn’t it? Rockstar cuts some pretty great trailers for their games. This fan-created video is as good as the official teaser for the latest Grand Theft Auto game. It’s the work of Luke Ritson, who’s previously don alternative trailers for BioShock Infinite, season one of…

​Two Years Later, I’ve Found A Diablo III Class That I Really Like

It’s not that I have anything against monks, per se. They seem like cool enough people. And my Diablo III monk, Shan, was a cool dude. He just wasn’t a demon hunter, you know? Shan fought his way to the final boss of Diablo III, won the day, got some kind of cool unique staff…

2048 Is Harder When You Play It With Other People

Forget ‘Twitch Plays Pokémon.’ Now there’s another madness-inducing multiplayer take on a game that was never meant to be played by more than one person. Normally, you play 2048 as a puzzle game where you try to combine tiles that are multiples of 2. In this version, you still do that, only you have to…

Here’s How To Play Tetris And Asteroids On Lab Equipment

Reddit user IAmAHiggsBoson stumbled onto a little easter egg on his oscilloscope: apparently if you press the right series of buttons, you can play Tetris instead of measuring voltages, or doing some other kind of boring “actual work”. So if you find yourself bored at work, you can follow the instructions in the imgur album…

You Can Play Titanfall In Minecraft

If it exists, it’ll get recreated in Minecraft—and Titanfall is no exception. Technically, this Minecraft mini-game isn’t called Titanfall—it’s called Ironfall. The mini-game, which you can see in action in the above footage from BrenyBeast – Minecraft, takes all of its inspirations from Titanfall—from the guns to the maps to titans themselves (only the titans…

There’s A New Google Glass, So Let’s Shoot It With A Machine gun

The new version of Google Glass looks pretty stylish. It also holds up well when dropped on grass, concrete, and in water. Not so well when shot with a 1200 round per minute Vector submachine gun. Google Glass 2.0 vs Vector Submachine Gun [RatedRR]
