Wacky Titanfall News Report Has Halo, Call of Duty Shooting Each Other

Look, we can’t say that Next Media Animation’s segment on today’s hot release actually, y’know, makes sense, as far what the moving images signify. But it’s fun to watch. And, hey, it’s Francis! Think he knows he’s in this? The best part of NMA’s take on Titanfall has to be its terrible approximation of the…

The Witcher 3 Delayed Until February, 2015

You’re going to have to wait a bit before playing the hotly-anticipated role-playing game The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Once planned for a late 2014 release on PC, PS4 and Xbox One, it’ll now be out in February of next year. The game simply wasn’t going to be good enough if it came out this…

The JRPG-styled Earthlock: Festival of Magic—formerly just called Festival of Magic—is back on Kickstarter after a failed campaign last year. Now they’re asking for $150,000 in an attempt to bring the colorful RPG to PC and consoles next year.

Looking good, Fastest Man Alive. After the quickest of glimpses more than two weeks ago, here’s a better look at the Flash suit that Grant Gustin will be wearing in the upcoming TV show. It definitely reads as more superhero than most of the outfits on Arrow.

My First 23 Deaths In Dark Souls II

Death is my teacher in Dark Souls II. Every time I get killed in this game, I get better at it. I have video proof of this. What I don’t have, I’m sorry to say, is video of my first three deaths in development studio From Software’s devilish new game. I do have the next…

​Find Out How Much Time You Waste on League of Legends

You’ve asked yourself the question: just how much am I playing this damn game? Is it months? Years? Decades, even?

That’s a lot of man-hours…

The Man Who Promised Too Much

Peter Molyneux is crying. I’m not sure how to react to this. Legendary game designers don’t often get emotional with the press. But here’s Molyneux, who has made so many games and done so many interviews over the past two decades, openly weeping into my voice recorder. We’re talking about promises. Molyneux, who has helped…

Interviewing Chun-Li is Awkward

Criticising Chun-Li’s outfit is probably not the way one should start an interview with her. But here’s Pete Holmes, making every possible mistake in the next installment of his Street Fighter series. He’s lucky he got away with it without getting Lightning kicked in the face. And that his subject wasn’t Cammy. Street Fighter Red…

Dark Souls II Seems Like The Kind of Game Werner Herzog Would Love

A video game where a brutal, indifferent cosmology smacks players around. A director obsessed with the darker parts of man’s nature. A match made in purgatory! Now we don’t have to imagine what the acclaimed filmmaker would think of Dark Souls II. We can hear that tremulous voice praise the sun right now. This tongue-in-cheek…

The New Powerpuff Girls Game Is The Best Of Both Worlds

Coming March 14 to Steam from the fine folks at Cartoon Network and Radiangames, The Powerpuff Girls: Defenders of Townsville gives players the power to choose between the classic animation style from the series’ first run and the horrible new one. Maybe the new one isn’t so horrible. Maybe it’s just a huge fan of…

Teaser trailer for Alone With You, the new game from Benjamin Rivers.

Inspired by various stop-motion movies, Gabriel Salas used the exact same 3D tools and a hand-made diorama to create this really special Legend of Zelda fan-art.

True Detective Goes Really Well With… Looney Tunes

Who would have thought that pulling key dialogue from the first season of HBO’s True Detective (which ended last night) and matching it up with Looney Tunes, the results would be pretty neat. Here’s the full clip (no spoilers), from last night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. Sex and violence with Porky Pig: Kimmel Kartoon – True…
