Russian photographer Andrey Shinkarchuk (aka Sketch_Turner) is one of the best at what he does, which is not only taking great cosplay photos but applying just the right amount of Photoshop. Photoshop’s use in cosplay photography can be a little controversial! While almost every image you see on the internet has been manipulated somehow (even…

As if Tokyo Warfare wasn’t wearing enough Japanophilia on its sleeves already, along comes this “manga mode” for the game that looks funny as hell. This isn’t what the game always looks like; it’s just an optional filter, in case the music and Tokyo streets weren’t Japanese enough for you. The game isn’t out yet…
Pokemon x Destiny’s Child is something I did not know I needed, but hey, life is full of pleasant surprises. You can hear more of GRIMECRAFT’s remixes here

Here’s something cool: Jakub Rozalski’s badass series of “Mechs in 1920s Poland” paintings that we featured last year have been turned into a boardgame
Time has not been kind to Civilization: Beyond Earth. I found it a passable strategy game at review, but the longer I stuck with it afterwards—particularly after I went back and remembered how amazing Civilization V still is—the more I went sour on it. It has some neat ideas around the fringes, sure, but the…
Custom PC builder Deblow’s amazing effort here has no need for desks. It’s so big it is a desk. That’s the PC itself lit up there, sitting under an enormous glass panel. It is also not cheap. In total it cost him around £4500 (USD$6800)to build, of which £350 was for the desk components and…
Stellar team effort by Michaelaand friends.
Over the last couple of weeks, several of us here at Kotaku have worked our way through Destiny’s new King’s Fall raid. Some of us really like it. Others, not so much. Jason and I have completed the raid a bunch of times—we went in cold the day it came out, and along with our…
I played bomb disarming Steam sensation Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes with my girlfriend. That might’ve been a bad idea. Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes is a game with an extremely unique premise: one player is on their PC, interacting with a virtual bomb; the other(s) pull up the official bomb manual on their PC,…
Teemo, nicknamed “Satan,” is such a famously infuriating champion to go against in League of Legends that many players (myself included) recoiled in terror upon hearing that he was getting buffed late this summer. But apparently his changes weren’t enough, because today Riot came back with even more. For those unfamiliar, Teemo is an adorable…
Last week, Marvel kicked off an all-new Doctor Strange series with a more grounded, approachable takeon the most powerful magician in this reality. But they also published a collection of the character’s 1980s stories on the same day. Looking at both releases shows just how much the Sorcerer Supreme has changed. Doctor Strange: Don’t Pay…
Deus Ex is one of gaming’s all-time greats, but let’s be real: 2000 was a long time ago. Some parts of the game—like, say the visuals—don’t really hold up, which is where the fan-developed Revision project is stepping in. The strangest part? Square Enix, who owns the Deus Ex series these days, is totally on…
You might remember the mysterious alien items that had Elite: Dangerous players stumped earlier this year. Well, they recently made a major discovery. Here’s the gist: a handful of months ago, players began coming across “unknown artefacts” that made bizarre noises—some of which were morse code scans of nearby objects, others of which had players…
Games like Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Fez and Destiny get a lot of credit for challenging the packs of people who play them to put their heads together to solve puzzles: players share tips online and make message board breakthroughs. Nintendo kids were doing that on the playground a quarter century ago, of course, trying to…
Destiny, a video game in which players travel through space doing the Carlton on as many planets as possible, will now let you spend real money on dances. Finally As of this afternoon, the Eververse Trading Company is open for business in Destiny’s Tower. And as you’ll see through a series of annoying prompts that…
