Van Helsing Does Diablo. At Least, That’s What This Game Looks Like.

NeocoreGames’ The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing was recently released on Steam to little fanfare. It looks fairly impressive for a $15 RPG, even though I get Diablo vibes so strong I can practically hear the menu music. They made a hell of a launch trailer, at least.

It’s A Half-Life 2 Gravity Gun. In A Bathroom.

Last December, reader Michelle decided to take a swing at building her own replica gravity gun from Half-Life 2. It’s done now, and it looks fantastic. It looks like it was a ton of hard work, from re-modelling the gun’s 3D wireframe to laser-cutting to a ton of painting and fiddly construction, but the results…

Explaining Frames-Per-Second (And Motion Blur)

Frames-per-second. Motion blur. They’re terms you’re probably familiar with if you’ve ever tinkered with game settings or even casually followed games hardware, but just what do those terms actually mean, and how do the laws that govern them actually work?

Arrested Development‘s Best Running Gags

If you’re anything like me, you’re pretty psyched about the ever-nearing premiere of Netflix’s new season of Arrested Development.
