A Player Made Rocket League In No Man’s Sky’s Creative Mode

Do you like Rocket League, but wish it were in space? A No Man’s Sky player has you covered. The prolific No Man’s Sky builder BoidGaming, who previously created a combination lock and a giant statue of Borderlands’ Claptrap, made a rudimentary but fully functional version of Rocket League in No Man’s Sky’s creative mode.…

Gaming Hardware Artist Turns Nintendo Famicom Into A Retro Computer

Swedish designer and craftsman Love Hultén transforms existing gaming hardware into dreamlike pieces of functional retrofuturist art. His latest work, the FC-PVM, combines a Japanese Famicom console with a Sony Trinitron monitor to create a self-contained retro gaming system with an old school terminal vibe. The FC-PVM is a Japanese NES in a box, with…

Grandia Has Reignited My Love For Role-Playing Games

When I was in my impressionable pre-teen years, I spent vast amounts of my summer tucked away in a musty little basement down the street. My closest friends would visit at their grandma’s house near me every year while school was out, and when we weren’t “ripping and running,” playing basketball with the “mannish” little…

Look At This Gosh-Darn Pretty Gaming PC

If I wanted to, I could put together a gaming PC with many of the same parts as this desktop by boutique system builder CLX, but I could never make it look as good. From the striking patterned pink outer shell to the gleefully glowing innards, CLX knows how to make a gaming rig look…

The Guy From The Big Short Is Investing Big In GameStop

Common wisdom in the video game world is that GameStop is on its way out thanks to the rise of digital distribution, but hedge fund operator Michael Burry, who made an unfathomable amount of money by betting against subprime mortgages, is all in. His fund even owns 3 million shares, or about 3% of the…

I Get More Excited About Old Games On Switch Than New Ones

I’ve spent much of the last week staring at the Switch eShop page for the Grandia HD Collection willing myself not to buy it. For me, it is probably the most alluring recent release on the system, a collection of two classic RPGs I’ve never played, available on the most pleasant and convenient console. That’s…

Four Years Later, Star Wars Fan Isn’t Done With His Death Star II Diorama

On July 5, 2015, Star Wars fan and Twitter user C3poC3 started working on his Death Star II diorama. Now in 2019, he’s not done. As you can see, he is currently painting the Death Star II’s northern hemisphere. The level of detail is staggering. The model measures 50 centimeters in diameter. Here are some…

K-Pop Pick Of The Day: The Ocean Of Yours

We’ve barreled through a few straight days’ worth of mainstream K-Pop idol music, which means it’s time to take things down a few notches. Back to Korean indie we go. This song is subtitled The Song Good For Nighttime Listening, which is very to the point—and also 100% true, as I can attest while finishing…

Sorry, You Can’t Spell Out Messages With Skeletons In WoW Classic

In vanilla World of Warcraft, as in life, skeletons were built to last. If you died somewhere and your flesh decayed to bone, your blanched, skinless husk would stick around for so long that you could die again and produce another right next to it. If you’ve spent more than several seconds around those of…

Fallout 76 Player Completes New Raid, Earns Useless Drill

Almost anyone who’s ever raided in a game before has a horror story about that time they worked really hard only to be rewarded with a piece of junk. At least one super unlucky Fallout 76 player recently joined their ranks. “We beat the final boss, opened up the loot chest at the end,” wrote…

The Sims 4‘s New Fashion Photography Pack Is Shockingly Good

I would never ordinarily recommend one of The Sims 4’s stuff packs. There usually isn’t much to them. But you know what? The Sims 4‘s Moschino stuff pack is good. There are three tiers of Sims 4 downloadable content. Expansion packs radically alter the game, adding multiple new mechanics and items. Game packs make smaller…

Dota 2 Team Sent Packing From World Championship After Tragic Misclick

Painful counterfactuals stalk even the best athletes. On Monday, Manchester United star Paul Pogba missed an easy penalty, dooming his team to a 1-1 draw against a lesser opponent. Last night, a Dota 2 player tried to ban a particular hero from the match, but ended up selecting him instead. It’s impossible to reduce any…

Metro Exodus‘ New Story DLC Feels Like It’s On Fast-Forward

The Metro series, in its best moments, is icky, verging on downright gross. Plenty of shooters try to capture a sense of place, but Metro bathes you in the grime and ichor that seeps from the clogged pores of its wounded world. The first level of Metro Exodus’ first DLC episode, “Two Colonels,” is no…

No Man’s Sky‘s Beyond Update Reveals The Game’s Real Potential

No Man’s Sky’s latest update, Beyond, makes the game both more complex and easier to play. What’s incredible about Beyond isn’t all the new features, like the new hub for multiplayer which has been looking quite lively after a few key performance patches. It’s that all of the old things have been reorganized to more…
