Watch Us Play… Yet Another Game About Bunnies In A Vending Machine

Do Not Fall is an adorable puzzle platformer about finding ingredients for drinks. Apparently the ingredient for milk is an entire cow. You can pick up Do Not Fall for PS3 right at this very moment. If you’re more patient, you can go vote for it on Steam Greenlight.

This League of Legends Rap Parody Works Way Better Than It Should

There are many unlikely combinations in this world. Chicken and waffles. Sparkles and vampires. Also, this parody by Rawb09 of Coolio’s song, Gangsta’s Paradise and League of Legends. I’m baffled these things work so well together, at least. But they do! Here’s the classic, Grammy-winning original song by Coolio, if you’d like to compare: Yordle’s…

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, Robot Unicorn Attack 2 adds Stan Bush’s “The Touch” and “Dare” from the 1986 Transformers: The Movie soundtrack to its list of purchasable unicorn traveling tunes.

There’s An Edward Snowden Game, And Yes, It’s A Runner

If you’ve ever played Temple Run and thought it needed a little less temple and a little bit more whistleblower refugee, you’re in luck: there is now an endless runner based on the life of Edward Snowden Snowden, the NSA leaker who revealed the existence of the U.S. government’s PRISM surveillance program last month, plays…

If There’s A Future In Motion-Controlled Computing, This Is It.

This is the Leap Motion Controller. I’m pretty sure it’s the future. This wasn’t the case last week, when the $79.99, USB stick-sized device for Mac and PC started shipping. Videos of people waving in the empty air in front of their computer monitor made me giggle more than think, and it wasn’t until the…

The next Animal Crossing needs to have a fighting minigame

Tina’s post about her feuding neighbors got me to thinking about an exchange I had with Ricky the other day. If my neighbors are so interested in seeing Clay and Leonardo duke it out, I say why not? Leonardo would win because he’s a jock tiger and Clay is just a lazy-ass hamster but I…

A Lightning-Fast Origin Story For The Man Behind Metal Gear

I enjoyed Lore‘s rundown of Metal Gear Solid 4 Lore in a Minute. So I also enjoyed this breakdown of the origin of the man behind the games, Metal Gear maestro Hideo Kojima. I’ve heard this story before, but it’s always nice to see it broken down so succinctly, and accompanied by such pretty illustrations.

If The Legend of Zelda’s Hero Appeared On More TV Shows…

Then he’d probably look a bit like these renditions by TanBurn. The two above are, of course, Link in the style of South Park and Link in the style of The Simpsons. To be fair, Link has appeared in a couple of the following TV shows—The Powerpuff Girls, for example. Still, it’s neat to see…

Flattery Will Get You Everywhere

But really I think it was just a bee sting. Nah, he was hitting on me.

Your House Sucks

I love you, Kid Cat, but seriously your house sucks. At least I can use that trash can to throw things out. Your house is literally my dumpster, Kid Cat. I lied when I said it was great. I LIED. I JUST DIDN’T WANT YOU TO GET MAD AND MOVE.

Aim High, Blue Cat

The sky is the limit, Moe. Glad to see you’re taking advantage of that.

Cat’s Got Some Beef

Just look at that evil glare. I had heard of this drama before. The blue cat told me.

Nervous Girl Fumbles Easy Pokémon Jeopardy Question

And the award for Video On The Web Most Likely To Make You Say ‘Aww’ Today goes to This Video, featuring a young girl who clearly knows the answer to a Jeopardy question, but gets nervous and fumbles it away. Sorry, Erin. If I were in charge, you’d get the money anyway, and so would…

Watch Us Play…Shelter. Now You Can Live The Dream Of Being A Badger

I don’t know what badgers eat. It’s a shortcoming that becomes painfully obvious in this playthrough of Might & Delight’s new game Shelter, which just got greenlit on Steam for personal and macintosh computers. If you enjoyed Journey, but wished the protagonist was something more relatable — like a badger — then Shelter might be…

Kicking Back, Drinking Some Beer And Playing Candy Crush Saga

Voted least likely to be the subject of a drunken ‘Let’s Play’ video on YouTube, here King’s social/mobile puzzle sensation demonstrates it’s near-universal appear as Major and Squarepainter take on Candy Crush Saga‘s dreaded level 65. What the pair have done in this series of videos (see part two and part three), is unwittingly captured…

In GTA V‘s Latest Screens: Cars and Trucks and Things That Go

Rockstar just dropped another dozen shots of Grand Theft Auto V, offering more glimpses of the fast life in Los Santos and the pastoral tranquility of Blaine County. Vehicles are the theme of this latest batch, including an ATV, a corporate jet, a ferry, and a Marine helicopter. To contact the author of this post,…

The Xbox One Controller Costs $60; the Headset is $25.

Microsoft finally got down to officially telling everyone the official price of an extra Xbox One controller, and it’s $59.99. The Xbox One’s headset—which isn’t included in the box—is $24.99. This is important because existing Xbox 360 controllers and compatible headsets won’t work with the Xbox One (Microsoft reasons that Kinect, included with every Xbox…

Tearaway, the lovely paperized platformer for PlayStation Vita, has been bumped back from an October release date to November 22.
