It’s hugely popular, but there’s no Breaking Bad video game. At least, not officially. There probably won’t be, either, given the nature of the show. But let’s dream there could be! And that star Walter White, played by Bryan Cranston, looked like he does here, in a series of 3D models done as fan work…
Next year’s Madden won’t be called Madden 14. It’ll be called Madden 25 in honour of the series’ 25th anniversary.
Call of Duty isn’t a big deal in the world of e-sports. Microsoft, Activision and $1 million are hoping to change that
Here’s a God of War: Ascension live-action trailer. Yeah.
In September 2012, a pair of developers from Bohemia Interactive—the team behind the ArmA series and the upcoming DayZ standalone game—were arrested on a Greek island and accused of espionage The island, Lemnos, was the same one being recreated for the studio’s in-development military combat simulator ArmA 3. As a result of the case against…
So special effects wizard Stan Winston has a school named after him, aimed at instructing whole new generations in the art of practical movie magic. This image was posted on their Facebook page yesterday. As loathe as I am to entertain the prospect of fanfiction, a sexy drunk playboy bounty hunter is something that could…
GoD Factory: Wingmen is, according to developers nine dots, “a competitive multiplayer game in which the goal for your team is to destroy the enemy carrier while protecting your own.” I know, these space games are making a very welcome comeback, but look at those colours. You’ll be able to design and build your own…
Perk-a-Cola—soda that grants you a much-needed perk—is a life-saver in zombie rounds of Call of Duty multiplayer. It’s also not a real drink, so a pair of fans set about changing that. Redditor Kjkemme and their zombie-handed sister have recreated all the sodas found in the game, right down to the nutrition labels. Call of…
Oleg Saakyan is a freelance concept artist who has worked for clients like social game developer Distant Orbit and board game (and increasingly video game) powerhouse Fantasy Flight Games. Expect to see him a lot more in the future, because this guy is good You can see more of Oleg’s work at his personal site…
Metal Gear, Hitman, Splinter Cell, Deus Ex… so many great stealth games to pay homage to, but what do you do if you want to pay homage to all of them in a single video? Why, you get clever like the guys behind this terrific fan video have, jumping from series to series in a…
Niche PC publishers Paradox held a big event earlier today, unveiling a range of new titles and DLC for existing ones. The one I’m most excited for is The Old Gods, a Viking expansion for my 2012 GOTY nominee Crusader Kings II In the game, until now, the Pagan and Zoroastrianism religions had been denied…
It’ll be years until we see what Star Trek director J.J. Abrams can do with Star Wars, but in the meantime, artist Gavin Chin has made this fake trailer, cutting the original films into a clip that’s so full of Abrams’ style—and lens flare—that you’d think it was the real thing. Star Wars Trailer by…
When you used to call the Nintendo Power Line as a kid, you’d have been excused for thinking you were talking to some kind of gaming master, a person with such an innate knowledge of the game in question they could tell you anything you needed to know. Sometimes, they might have been, but for…
A red version of the new slimline PS3, first revealed in Japan earlier this month, will be coming to the US as part of a God of War: Ascension bundle. Due out on march 12, it’s got a 500GB HDD and every God of War game, from Ascension all the way back to the HD…
The Famicom was once a magnificent beast, but its time in the sun has long gone. Unless you’re a collector, you probably don’t have much need for one. These guys didn’t. So they turned it into an RC car, which is driven by the console’s control pad. ファミコンラジコン疾走 [友樹 小堀]
OK, you’re going to have to bear with me on this one. This art is for a project called Solace. The work of Judson “Tettix” Cowan, it’s an album, and for each song Cowan has drawn a piece of “concept art”, or a “screenshot”, imagining the game that would be based on the music, if…
This is Lumino City. It’s the sequel to a 2012 game, Lume. It’s “hand made” in the sense that rather than being built from digital 3D assets, it was mostly filmed on a set, that was made in the real world. Even the effects are done, for the most part, for real; the windmill spinning…
Not unless you want them to actually fire back. This refreshingly honest exchange—which was still on the site at time of writing—took place overnight on Ubisoft’s Australian Facebook page. Call it unprofessional if you want, but hey, it’s nice to see someone slinging remote digital mud get a little back from a publisher for once.…
Dwarf Fortress is, even with mods helping it out, one of the ugliest video games on the planet. It’s also one of the most rewarding for those who crack its tough exterior, leading to the kind of heroic exploits and emergent gameplay most titles can only dream about. One tale in particular, though, stands out.…
Last time we checked in on Sony’s PlayStation Home service—yeah, it’s still around—we found that, over the years, it’s… changed. The people still using it, and paying money for things, have…interesting tastes. The objects, items and experiences you see below are not jokes. They’re what’s actually new for sale this month on the service, as…
