Today, Super Meat Boy, Braid and Lone Survivor were added to the fifth installment of the Humble Indie Bundle. Just when you think things couldn’t get more awesome. [HumbleBundle.com]
When I was told that Kirk had turned into a bear, I was very confused. My immediate thought process went something like: “How did that happen? What do we do? Is he going to have to find a new job? He can’t type on a computer or hold a controller if he has paws, right?”…
We previously reported that Disney’s Wreck-It Ralph would feature cameos of iconic video game villains, but seeing them in an actual trailer is something different. After watching this, I can’t wait for this film to be released. It looks like it could be the greatest video game-related movie ever made.
If you were excited about Dawnguard, Skyrim‘s first piece of DLC, before, wait until you see it in action. The video shows you the vampire lord transformation and a ton of the skills that come with it, including summoning a gargoyle, using “vampiric grip” to lift enemies in the air, melee attacks and shooting energy…
This year, Sony and Microsoft’s E3 presentations contained a combined 218 on-screen deaths, according to The Gameological Society. Of course, no one was really murdered at the E3 briefings. That is a relief.
Hot off the e-presses, here’s four new screenshots from Aliens: Colonial Marines for your viewing pleasure. In the images, we get a glimpse of two aliens, a look at iron sights in action, and a peek at what the multiplayer lobby looks like. Aliens: Colonial Marines is due out February 12 for PC, Xbox 360,…
Ghosts? Check. Four color-coded characters? Check. Chasing each other around a dark, hallway-ridden setting? Check. Watch Stephen play the ghost in Luigi’s Ghost Mansion in Nintendo Land, and get demolished by the Nintendo reps playing the ghost hunters in this video.
Nintendo Land‘s Donkey Kong’s Crash Course has nothing to do with bongos, nor the jungle. The player controls a vehicle by tilting the Wii U Gamepad and pushing the shoulder buttons to control various obstacles. The object of the game is to collect bananas without tipping the vehicle over. The screen on the gamepad provides…

If I asked you the question: “Do you want to see a bunch of different-colored blobs being tossed around and liquified?” you probably wouldn’t know how to answer. It would be hard to envision such a crazy and admittedly poorly-described image. What if I said I was describing a video game that was part Peggle…
A trailer for Capcom’s latest installment of the Devil May Cry series has leaked online. It shows off Dante’s controversial new look, as well as an old man in a suit ranting about terrorists. Despite the new look, the game doesn’t seem to be a departure from anything that made the older Devil May Cry…
Today at PAX East, Kotaku hosted a panel where we allowed readers to “take over” the site. Here are some photos of how it went down. Taken by Chris Person Taken by Chris Person Taken By Chris Person Taken by Chris Person Taken by Chris Person Taken by Chris Person Taken by JP Speir Taken…

My love for video games started when my dad bought a Super Nintendo home in the mid 90’s. But as much fun as I had playing then, my young, impressionable brain was also scarred by a handful of gaming moments that left an indelible mark on my psyche. Even if those moments don’t scare me…

There’s been article after article about how gaming culture (and perhaps all of nerd culture) is typically and fundamentally a straight, white, cis-male dominated scene. However you look at it, it’s hard to deny the fact that the character landscape in video games is a little monochromatic. This is where The Arkh Project comes in.…
Gotham City Impostors doesn’t hit Xbox Live until tomorrow, but you can get all of the Gotham City Impostors DLC you could ever want today. The game now has over one hundred selections of downloadable costume pieces, ranging in price from $1 to $4 (80-320 MSP). A majority of the DLC is obtainable the old…
Crush 3D is a game that makes full use of the 3DS’s three-dimensional capabilities by producing platforming puzzles difficult enough to challenge the most die-hard of platformer fans. The game’s “crushing” mechanic has the player switching in between 2D and 3D at will, crushing and collecting as they try to navigate to the exit of…

Before we get to this… some apologies are in order. We at Kotaku apologize for having to skip giving recommendations in January,…
When the editor-in-chief here asked me to do a video showcasing two of my beloved characters created on Soulcalibur V‘s character creator, I was elated. I consider myself a connoisseur of character creation and customization, often spending way too much time than any person should on creating the most bizarre and ridiculous characters I possibly…
