Designer Angelo Trofa is a football kit nerd, and since I am also a football kit nerd, I’ve long been a big fan of his work. So it’s nice to see that his contribution to the FIFA series—he designed the Ultimate Team Icons jerseys—are having their shirts brought to life.
Civilization IV player WastinTime has achieved something I would never have thought was even remotely possible: winning a space race victory in the strategy classic by launching a rocket two centuries before Jesus was born.

I recently found out that the most hot-headed guy in my Overwatch crew—who throws the biggest fits whenever we lose—is actually a professional therapist. Hearing him divulge this over Overwatch voice chat after only knowing him through his in-game persona, I couldn’t help but laugh. We’ve shared in some jubilant win streaks, yes, but on…
Twitch, a platform that’s notoriously dealt with racist chat spam for years, recently added an official Kentucky Fried Chicken chat emote that depicts a bucket full of the Colonel’s original recipe.

So strong, in fact, that starting with the next expansion, Blizzard is moving the card out…

My Switch backlog is ridiculous. I’m busy juggling Ni No Kuni II and a review copy of Far Cry 5 on my PS4, neglecting the half-played Evil Within 2. I’ve got games to play on my Xbox One as well (some of them old). I figured it was at least okay to stop carrying my…
Pokémon Go continues to add some structure beyond “capture everything,” with Niantic announcing that the AR game will soon add more interesting ways to play the game and earn rewards. While many of these additions have been known for a while now thanks to data mining, the inclusion of a quest-like structure and storytelling is…
Since 2012, Tokyo-based Run’a Entertainment has had an official Evangelion motorsport team. This was a very good idea. Not because it has any tangible impact on the team’s winning record. But what it does impact is the cars and bikes’ appearance. While the Eva cosplay race queens might seem like pandering to anime fans, the…

There’s a burning question in everyone’s mind: Which is better, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds or Fortnite? Despite having put time in each, I find PUBG to be the more fulfilling experience, and that’s because it’s not afraid to slow you down. The Fortnite-enjoyers in my life often cite the game’s fast-paced frenzy as a reason they enjoy…
Dungeons & Dragons is full of mixed up creatures like owlbears, which are half bear and half owl, and perytons, the deer-headed eagles of your dreams and nightmares. D&D creatures generated by a neural network are even weirder. Janelle Shane, a research scientist who works with neural networks, has generated a whole host of new…
