When people engage in the art of cosplay, we normally expect to see them dress up as characters from a video game, not a video game console itself. And when they do dress up as a console, we’d expect to see them dress up as a, well, console. Not what this lass is wearing, which…
With one Kinect motion-sensing camera, we can see part of our surroundings in 3D. With two, however, we can actually generate 3D models of our surroundings. Oliver Kreylos, the man behind the first of these kind of videos, has got hold of a second camera and with it built an adorable little 3D model of…
One of the best parts about Halo: Reach was that, for the game’s all-important change of pace, the developers swapped out the awful Flood and replaced them with an enjoyable space battle sequence. So it’s a shame to hear that there was an original – if half-baked – plan to have a lot more space…
Find out, as the same methodology used on TV to sort myth from busted fiction is applied to the multiplayer portion of Call of Duty: Black Ops. Whether it’s shooting down unmanned helicopters, protecting yourself from death by remote control car or surviving being crushed by radiation blast doors, this video breaks down (or upholds!)…
Takara Tomy’s remote-controlled Mario Kart toys may have looked great, but they shipped without a decent track. These Spanish guys certainly took care of that, building a custom course for the toys that would do a video game proud. Of course, a real Mario Kart would require better handling from its vehicles than these tiny…
The fact so many games now appear on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC is a blessing for PC gamers who used to miss out on a lot of console games, but according to Crysis developers Crytek, it’s a mixed blessing. “As long as the current console generation exists and as long as we keep pushing…
Ubisoft has confirmed that a sixth game in stealth action series Splinter Cell is currently in the early stages development at the company’s Toronto studio. And…that’s all Ubisoft is willing to confirm as far as the game goes, with no word on things like setting (is it worth bringing back tired old Sam Fisher?) and…

Bugs. They’re those annoying glitches that can mar your experience with a game or, in extreme cases, end your experience with one altogether. But just how much do you know about them, and how they’re removed from retail games? A number of developers and testers have spoken with GamePro, highlighting some of the nuances in…
Artist Robert Overweg built a house and put it on exhibition. If you play zombie shooter Left 4 Dead 2, you may even recognise it! It’s not made of wood. Or bricks. Actually, it doesn’t even have four walls. It’s a sham of a house, a replica of one found in Valve’s popular online shooter,…
Swedish student Jenni Källberg – otherwise known as the world’s greatest Metroid cosplayer – is back, taking imitation of Nintendo’s sci-fi starlet to a whole new level. Over the past two months, Källberg has hit the streets for two shoots, one showing off Samus’ Gravity Suit in a winter wonderland, the other a vastly-improved Varia…
Or should we say, Korea pushes the PlayStation Move’s buttons? Because that’s what’s happening here, and the controllers, bless them, don’t seem quite sure what to do about it. Snuggling babies, playing with kids, taking punches in the face, there’s nothing these valiant console mascots won’t do in the name of platform promotion. As seen…
Well, they both grew up in log cabins…as seen on Threadless, via Gamefreaks
This couple, married on the 4th of July, found just about the sweetest way imaginable to commemorate their anniversary: with complementary Zelda tattoos. As seen on Fuck Yeah Tattoos Gameface is a photographic celebration of the people who make, play and love video games.

These are a couple of commercials for Level 5’s Ni no Kuni, an upcoming collaboration between the Japanese role-playing game developer and Studio Ghibli,…
Crytek, the creators of Far Cry and Crysis, are mostly known for their shooters with a strong emphasis on singleplayer campaigns. Their Korean studio, however, has just taken the wraps off an entirely online shooter. It’s called Warface, a “near future” shooter for the PC that lets players either take each other on in online…
Provided it works, a pre-owned game is the same thing as a new game. As in, it’s the same game. So why do people still prefer new games, when used ones are cheaper? Research company Cowen and Company decided to go and find out, asking 1,300 people (of which 1,001 were gamers) what their motivations…
Double Fine, developers of games like Costume Quest and Brütal Legend, haven’t released a PC game in a long time. Why is that, Double Fine? “As a developer we do not have final say in the sku plan for our games” says a report on the company’s website. “That is the decision of the person…
It was under the leadership of Phil Harrison that Sony conquered Europe with the PS2, which set that console on its path to the history books. So what does Harrison, now long departed from Sony, think of the PS3’s chances? “I hope PS3 can match PS2, but I think the market dynamics are slightly different”…
