Check out the latest video for Child of Light, Ubisoft’s take on a JRPG. The combat system is inspired by Grandia II, and with it you can do some really neat things, like work together with a partner to delay enemies’ attacks and beat tough baddies at level 1. (I played the game yesterday on…

The fantastic Rayman Legends comes to non-Nintendo next-gen in February. During Ubisoft’s fiscal year 2013-2014 conference call, CEO and chairman Yves Guillemot revealed that the second game in the limbless wonder’s console rebirth will hit next-generation consoles in February 2014. Can it possibly get any prettier?

SWEAR TO ME You’ll Watch This Comic Con Video

It’s hard to mock with love. In the video above, from last night’s episode of The Pete Holmes Show, Pete takes to the floor of this year’s New York Comic-Con to interview the cosplaying attendees. But unlike a lot of convention interviews, there is a real sense of love — a sense that Pete genuinely…

The famous South Park nerd wasn’t the only cosplay at BlizzCon this year, you know.

Send Help. Stupidly Good Quiz Game Is Robbing Me Of Sleep.

I played my first round of Plain Vanilla’s QuizUp, “the biggest trivia game in the world”, last night around 9 PM. I played my last round of the evening at 4 AM. This game is dangerously good. I’ve been overlooking emails about QuizUp for several weeks now, which, considering how tired I am today, was…

The Next Lord of the Rings Game Is A Brand New Prequel

The next Lord of the Rings game is called Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, and it’s an open-world action game set between The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Yep, this is an original, brand new prequel that doesn’t seem to be based on any of JRR Tolkien’s works. Shadow of Mordor, developed by the folks…

​Marvel at a Museum Dedicated to One of Comics’ Greatest Artists

Captain America, the Hulk, Fantastic Four… If you read superhero comics, you’ve probably liked a character created or co-created by Jack Kirby. He made the battles of superheroes like Thor feel larger than life but he also grew up fighting in the streets of New York City’s gritty Lower East Side neighborhood. And he made…

A Spoiler-Free Look at BioShock Infinite‘s Next Chapter

BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea‘s first chapter releases today, and as it deals with events after the twists-and-turns thriller of Infinite, there are few options for seeing what it’s all about without confronting a faceful of spoilers. 2K Games’ launch trailer looks like a safe approach, though. It’s Booker and it’s Elizabeth, the two main…

Here’s what’s going on Talk Among Yourselves, our reader-written blog: Stormborn makes Super Mario Brothers‘ bad guys look better in the latest part of his redesign project. Pink Zapper Helmet offers up insight on how the costs of video games prevents them from reaching a wider audience. And JJtheTexan shares info on a little-known, cancelled…

It Takes Five Minutes To Reach The First Dungeon In The Newest Zelda

Five minutes and three seconds, to be precise—that’s how long it just took me to get to the tutorial dungeon in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, which comes out for 3DS on November 22. Using my iPhone stopwatch app, I started recording the second I hit “new game.” Including the opening cut-scene,…

30 Minutes Of Very Pretty Dragon Age: Inquisition Footage

Via NeoGAF, here’s the Dragon Age: Inquisition demo that the folks at BioWare showed off at PAX in Seattle a few months ago (and have been showing off at other places since). Looks good, don’t you think? Make sure you set it to HD for a better idea of what the game will look like…

Let Doc Brown Explain Warlords of Draenor‘s Confusing Timeline

The next WoW expansion, Warlords of Draenor will focus on orcs, but most importantly time travel. As if the lore wasn’t already confusing enough, WoD will make sure we get lost in the history of orcs and humans. But thanks to Redditor trytech, we might have a saviour, none other than Doc Brown from Back…

Okay, Maybe Call Of Duty: Ghost‘s Spawning Could Use Some Work

Now I’m no first-person shooter expert, but I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t be able to kill the same opponent four times in ten seconds. Not only does YouTube’s Gold Glove kill one guy four times in that time span during this Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer match, he kills another two enemy players while he’s…

Morning! Read this stuff you missed overnight. Or watch it. Whichever! Kinky PC Demo Allows For Virtual Sex, Robot Handjobs The Worst Martial Artists In The World Nintendo, Take My Money, Please Sony Turns Hotel Into Giant Concrete PS4

A classic fighting game based on Dota 2 and its characters would be a really cool thing, right? Redditor Wykrhm played with this idea, inspired mostly by Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter, and created the edit above. The Anti-Mage and Riki fit right in, but some characters, like Juggernaut, would be OP as hell under…

And The Lost Twin Brother Of Big Boss Is None Other Than…

So it looks like it’s not just Ellie from The Last of Us with a twin sister. Joel has one too: Big Boss from Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes. Not to mention the artwork looks pretty much the same, too. Plus “Stealth of Us” is an anagram of The Last of Us Joelid Snake –…

Mexican Drug Cartel Selfies Show the Pouty Side of Crime

Meet Broly. He’s allegedly a member of the Knights Templar Cartel. Maybe make that “was.” He might have been killed or captured. But one thing for sure, this guy sure snapped lots of selfies.
