When Superman Finds Out You’ve Been Drawing His Dick
This might be the best Superman fan-fiction I’ve ever seen. Hell, it’s better than most of the Superman stories DC is putting out nowadays. How do we nominate the Weedhorse69 Saga for an Eisner? Because the Imgur post that plays out a text message conversation between Jimmy Olsen and an artist friend deserves the highest…

An Intro To The World of Dark Souls Hitbox Porn
You do all sorts of dodging in a Dark Souls game, sometimes by the skin of your teeth. Perhaps a blade just barely passes over your head, saving you from an instant death.

The Best Bit Of Battleborn So Far Can Only Be Played Once [Update]
Battleborn’s prologue mission begins with a gorgeous animated sequence, followed by an excellent single-player story mission. Then it goes away. Update: Now it doesn’t! I’m currently working my way up the Battleborn ladder, completing story missions, unlocking characters and gathering gear for my eventual plunge into competitive multiplayer. I’ve played through several co-op missions on…

Surviving A Doom 2 Map With 100,000 Revenants
Completing this map could be a bit tricky, if not impossible. Modder Marphitimus was disappointed by the lack of Revenants in the upcoming DOOM, so he made a map that probably satisfies the demand. That’s 100,000 of them right below the starting point. Revenants and a bunch of other classic enemies. It’s Doom 2, so…

Guy Builds Tiny Jurassic Park For His Tortoise
The trademark main entrance, the visitor center and a damaged fence from Jurassic Park, all built around a lucky Leopard tortoise called Louie by Oliver Turpin Pretty cool! He clearly spared no expense. The tortoise isn’t really touched by this though. He only cares about the grass around him. To contact the author of this…

A Realistic Star Fox Cast
Not too realistic, because an overly realistic Star Fox cast would just be animals in flight jackets. But this is a good compromise. The four portraits were drawn by artist Andy Winn (thanks for the submission, Andy!), who regularly posts his pop culture-themed works to Instagram under the name Gallery 94. You can find more…

The Creators of Burnout Are Making A Game That’s Even More Chaotic
“We just call it a mess simulator,” the ever-quotable game developer Alex Ward was saying as his colleague Chris Roberts (the other Chris Roberts) was playing their upcoming game in Kotaku’s New York City office during a visit last week.

It Took One Fan Nearly Three Years To Obtain A Perfect Shiny Pokémon Collection
Sometimes, catching ‘em all just isn’t enough. As Pokémon fans know, any time you encounter a Pokémon in the wild, there is a very small chance that monster will appear in a special color. Known as “shinies,” these Pokémon are so rare, many fans have never actually captured one at all. To wit, in the…

That Time Sony Started Making Big Games Available Digitally On Day One
It’s now standard practice to release a game at retail and digitally at the same time, but that wasn’t the case in 2007. Warhawk was a trendsetter, but it was a bumpy road. Warhawk was supposed to be one of PlayStation 3’s biggest early exclusives, an ambitious resurrection of a cult classic for the original…

Game Store. Game Store Never Changes.
Sure, the items for sale in post-apocalyptic Game Store GameRaveTV built in Fallout 4 are a little different, but the vibe is exactly the same. The doors open to clearance toys, just as they do in most real-world Game Store locations these days. Toys-to-life games on the right, along with some random board game stuff.…

My Quest To Win NBA MVP
Meet Lorenzen Patsatzoglou. He’s a better scorer than Steph Curry, a stronger rebounder than DeAndre Jordan, and, although this may sound a bit premature, I’d say he might go down as the best player in NBA history. Or at least NBA video game history. Lorenzen Patsatzoglou, aka Frequency Vibrations, aka The Bodyguard, is 7’3 and…
