When you think of Japanese role-playing game Persona, you probably don’t think of German engineering. Spotted at the Tokyo Auto Salon by sister site Gizmodo Japan, this is a customized Audi S5 itasha. It is covered in Persona 4 decals and has gullwing doors. You will never forget this. Never.

It’s one of the greatest games ever made. Playing it is a rite of passage for millions. It’s a game that becomes increasingly difficult the longer you play it. That’s right, I’m talking about beer pong—make that, Beer Pong The River Falls Pong Table Company created this custom beer pong table that displays The Legend…
From what I’ve seen of Binary Domain, it looks rather vanilla, but it could be interesting. These live action promo spots? They’re incredible. In the above ad, a female office worker is getting chewed out by her boss. He leaves the meeting room, and to relieve her stress, she writes, “Department Manager, Die!” And she…
There was concern that South Korea’s rating board was throwing a monkey wrench in Diablo III‘s certification. If the game went unrated, then Blizzard’s planned worldwide release would go right out the window. The Korean Game Rating Board finally rated the game, giving it an 18-and-up rating. What was holding up the game’s rating was…
Tycho has been the only thing getting me through this working week. Handling both his own synths and much of his own artwork as well, San Francisco musician Tycho – aka Scott Hansen – is signed to the wonderful Ghostly label, where you’ll find loads of other similar artists. Tycho fans – or anyone interested…
Head cheap-ass at Cheap Ass Gamer and my breakfast friend CheapyD shelled out to appear in Saints Row 3. It wasn’t just because Cheapy loves Saints Row (he does), it was also for a good cause. Back in 2010, after a young woman was tragically burned in a fire, Steve Jaros, senior writer on Saints…
On Jan. 25, Capcom, the game company behind Resident Evil and Street Fighter, will open…a bar. It’s called Capcom Bar. Clever. As previously posted, the bar will have booze and food, and it will play host to Capcom promotional events. Wonder what to expect? Monster Hunter meat (fitting), Ace Attorney seafood pasta (oh), and Resident…
I’ve tested battery life. Usually, I play some, write down how long I play, take a break, and comeback. Not this dude. YouTube user Kurekureyon filmed himself playing the PS Vita and the Nintendo 3DS non-stop. Only occasionally does his hand leave the frame for what, I’m assuming, is bathroom breaks—or coming up for gasps…
Creating orange and blue teleportation…hole…things like those found in Valve’s Portal series sounds awesome, but remember: in the real world, everything awesome is ultimately corrupted by assholes. Roommates and Portals [neatorama]
March 11, 2011 was a horrible day. Japan was ravaged by a powerful earthquake and tsunami, resulting in destruction and death. Tokyo felt it, sure, but areas like Fukushima were hit hardest. The earthquake touched so many different kinds of people. Complete strangers offered to help and give money. Many of those whose lives were…
Battlefield 3 is the first multiplayer shooter I’ve played regularly for years, but I’ve been on the cusp of tapping out lately because of all the cheats. Like guys in helicopters who hover at the edge of the map and deal out instant death. “What, you can’t get out of that flying tin can and…
Right now, you may think you are looking at a new zero calorie lychee apple tea drink. You are. But you are also looking at Nintendo’s character, Yoshi. Yes. Don’t believe me? Check the second pic in the above gallery. The photo was originally uploaded to Japanese food blog Darksky::Weblog. 2ch forum users first noticed…
Boy, Pokémon + Nobunaga’s Ambition is goofy! But don’t write the DS game off just yet: it will have over 200 Pocket Monsters, selected from past Pokémon games. [忍之閻魔帳]
The Poké Ball, the device which catches and holds Pocket Monsters, comes in various types. There are twenty-six variations, all different. Sadly, they’re not real (neither are Pocket Monsters!). But what if they were? Australian artist Barry Wazzy took the PokéBall out of the game and anime world and rendered them in ours. The result…
You may have noticed a few websites around the place pledge to “shut down” on January 18 in protest against the awful Stop Online Piracy Act. That’s all well and good, but now Red 5 Studios, the developers behind the upcoming Firefall, are doing it as well. Thing is, they’re shutting down their video game.…
On January 17, Gran Turismo 5 owners will get two news pieces of DLC to purchase, one of them a pack with six new cars, the other a new test track. The car pack, which costs $6, includes the Lamborghini Aventador, Jaguar XJR-9 LM, Aston Martin V12 Vantage, 1966 Volkswagen 1200, the Mini Cooper S…
There’s a reason Nintendo characters don’t turn up in each other’s games as often as they should. Mario’s a dirty grab-ass. [As seen on somethingsomething]
Those of you who still play Minecraft, the game’s been updated to v1.1. What’s new? All kinds of stuff, which may or may not be really important depending on what language you speak and how you feel about sheep. The biggest improvements are probably the extra language support for Europeans, enhanced bows, reduced brewing times…
Brazilian artist Will Murai has worked extensively in the video games, comics and advertising industries. But that’s not why we’re here today. We’re talking about Will because of his amazing fan art. Using a style that’s halfway between ‘classic pin-up” and “newspaper caricature”, Murai has paid the ultimate, illustrative homage to some of his favourite…
Electronic Arts has yet to officially take the wraps off a second game in its rebooted Medal of Honor series, but that hasn’t stopped the publisher from continually referencing it. Last year, copies of Battlefield 3 included an insert all-but advertising the game. And those who finished Medal of Honor’s singleplayer campaign will know it…
