This is T-17 Tanky. Watch its trailer above. You’ll either scrunch your face up for a second before turning it off in disgust or think, my God, where has this game been all my life. There’s a slight Cat Shit One vibe to proceedings, but in general, it’s just Battlefield. With only vehicles. And driving…
As games near release, the last of their bugs and kinks are ironed out. Some of those remaining are a pain in the ass, while others are hilarious. This Skyrim glitch is definitely the latter. Chatting with PC Gamer about the game’s “Radiant Story” technology, which alters side-quests to make them more involving, Bethesda’s Todd…
Here is a list of Rockstar games from the past decade that have been, or are about to be, released on PC: Grand Theft Auto III The Italian Job State of Emergency Grand Theft Auto Vice City Midnight Club II Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Grand Theft…
Nintendo handheld colour change alert: come November 3, Japanese customers will be able to buy a 3DS in a shade called “Ice White”. It looks, pardon my French, shit hot. Love the contrast effect between the glossy white and the black. It’ll be the same price the 3DS is at the moment in Japan, which…
If you’re not quite sure how much spit and polish has been applied to Counter-Strike’s more memorable levels as part of the game’s upcoming Global Offensive update, check out these comparison shots. Using official screenshots or trailer screengrabs as a base, players have staked out the exact same spots on existing versions of the maps,…
Pendleton Ward (creator) and Natasha Allegri (artist) of Adventure Time fame have made a short cartoon about Pokémon. In which Ash instructs Pikachu on the etiquette of farts. Despite running for only 1:35, it is both amusing and horrifying. You can contact Luke Plunkett, the author of this post, at [email protected]. You can also find…
Today is a day a lot of folks will be remembering the good, the bad and the downright inspirational from the company Steve Jobs helped found all the way back in 1976. So today’s Total Recall will be all about Apple’s one and only crack at the video games market: the Pippin. Sure, the iPhone…
To go with the Demon’s Souls concept art we showed you a few months back, today we’ve got a collection of art from its spiritual successor Dark Souls, out this week on the Xbox 360 and PS3. For a game that is about little but darkness, pain, brutality and despair, the art certainly gets the…
The Binary is a web-driven, text-based game in which you’re being sent back in time to make sure other people sent back in time don’t mess around with things. Sort of like the recent flick Source Code, only with less Chesty Jake, more Words on a Screen. It plays out at times like an interactive…
We’ve seen title art from modern games. And from NES games. Today, we’re hitting the ground somewhere in between with a collection of animated title screen art from the Genesis/Mega Drive and Super Nintendo. These images come courtesy of Title Scream, a site run by Kiwi interactive designer Cameron Askin which is looking to preserve…
No jets on Operation Metro, the only map available in Battlefield 3’s beta? No problem. Make your own. [thanks Smi1ey!] You can contact Luke Plunkett, the author of this post, at [email protected]. You can also find him on Twitter, Facebook, and lurking around our #tips page.
There’s a new Square Enix game on the way for the Nintendo 3DS called Bravely Default: Flying Fairy. Even going by Square’s ridiculous standards, it’s a ridiculous name. Lucky, then, it looks so damn good. Understand that this appears to be an incredibly “traditional” Japanese role-playing game, and that I’m talking about its visuals, not…
Even though most of you aren’t playing the game yet, Blizzard still wants you to get to grips with the world of Diablo III. So the developer has opened a section on the game’s site where you can check out a lot of Diablo III’s early items and weapons. These are of course just the…
Let’s find out, since publishers Rockstar have today released some screens of the late-to-the-party PC edition of the face-reading hat simulator. Looks a little muddier in parts than the glorious master race will be accustomed to, but considering the nature of the game (it is quite literally a console port) that’s not too big a…
EA, the video games publisher, is taking EA, the fitness supplies company, to court. And it’s not over the name. Energy Armor, based in Florida, is instead being taken to court because of two things. The first is its logo, which is more of a “complete rip-off” of EA’s famous branding than it is an…
It’s a sign of the iPhone’s growing maturity as a platform that I can now have a favourite iOS developer. And that developer is PikPok. The New Zealand studio, who we’ve featured once or twice on Kotaku before, has just released another sports game, only this one is a little different from its previous efforts.…
The latest Tron movie was a funny thing. And the game was just as funny as the movie. Forgettable content, but with art design just gorgeous to look at. Good thing we’re just looking at Tron art today, then, and not playing it. These pieces are all courtesy of Daryl Mandryk, a freelance concept artist…
For someone growing up gay, life can be a challenge. So the team behind A Closed World decided to turn it into one of gaming’s most institutionalised ordeals: the Japanese role-playing game. It’s a great project, using the genre as a means to both parody games and use them as a productive tool to do…
Daniella Zelli is making me hungry. She runs a website called Gourmet Gaming, which exists solely to take the food found in video games and bring it into the real world. Notice how video games never really feature bad food? It’s always pies, or drumsticks, or pizza. The good stuff. Stuff that Zelli takes to…
It’s not every day you get to play a new id game. If you’re not counting iPhone games (and we’re not counting iPhone games) or re-releases, the last new title the studio released was Doom 3. And that was in 2004 So this week’s release of post-apocalyptic buggy death simulator RAGE is something to be…
