If you need the music for this kind of atheticism, here it is (via Reddit) UPDATE: Here’s a still:
Tonight, Bungie announced some crazy news in the world of Destiny, a video game where players fight against vile, disgusting enemies like the Cabal, the Vex, and Red Bull. You know all those weapons that everyone uses? Gjallarhorn? Thorn? The Last Word? Hawkmoon? They’re all getting nerfed. Every damn one Thanks toa massive weapon overhaul…

Ever wonder how wild the Wild West would have been if everyone had been scratching records instead of rustling cattle? Luckslingermight be the game for you. It’s a side-scrolling shooter and adventure title that is mostly a cowboy game, except for the places it takes a detour and dumps a bunch of hip-hop in the…
Here lies Besiege. It was massacred by a giant elephant robot monster. Yes, people are still making stuff in Besiege—stuff more elaborate and terrifying than anything they were making back when everybody was paying attention. This elephant is goddamn absurd. Between layers upon layers of armor and so many methods of attack that I lost…

Skyrim mods, they’re the gift that keeps on giving. Years after the fantasy RPG kingpin came out, we’re seeing stuff that’s practically professional-quality. The Forgotten City could be mistaken for a full-on Bethesda-made expansion. It’s not quite on Enderal’s level, but there’s still a lot to be cautiously optimistic about. Check it out: The mod…
They may be sat behind a desk instead of being out on a field or court smashing into other humans, but that doesn’t mean esports players are immune from career-threatening injuries. Motherboard has a great interview up with Dr. Levi Harrison, a hand and arm surgeon based in Los Angeles. Harrison—who specialises in athlete injuries—tells…
“13/13,” Method’s Scott McMillan tweeted. And just like that, the World of Warcraft community went nuts. McMillan was referring to the fact that his guild defeated all 13 bosses in WoW’s latest top tier raid, Hellfire Citadel, on Mythic difficulty. And they only wiped 472 times before pulling it off. (For some perspective, they wiped…
Oh man. I bet these two League of Legends players thought they were being so clever, teaming up at the very beginning of the match to jump into top lane and surprise their opponent who was all alone up there. The would-be ambushers should have checked the in-game handle of their target more carefully, because…
I’m starting to feel a little dizzy. We have YouTube user TheZombieKiller to thank for this ridiculousness. Of course, this isn’t the only weird place you can run DOOM. How about an inkjet printer? You can reach the author of this post at [email protected] or on Twitter at @patrickklepek
Like the delightful and oppressive mobile-game galaxy that it summoned, Tetris is both seductive and dispiriting. Alexey Pajitnov’s falling-block puzzler captures the pleasure and the vacuousness of virtual labor. Each game of Tetris contains an interactive “Ozymandias,” a fruitless quest to build something that will outlast the lone and level sands. Look on my tetrominoes,…
You might be wondering if the new StarCraft II prologue, Whispers of Oblivion, is any good. I am here to tell you that yes, sure. It’s good! Short and sweet. The bigger question—and one I’m still not sure about—is whether you should pre-order Legacy of the Void to get it. Let me explain. Yesterday, Blizzard…

Batman is Bruce Wayne. Except, of course, when he isn’t. Other folks have worn the pointy ears of Gotham City’s shadowy superhero over the years, too, and every new Batman brings a few changes with them as well. In the comics these days, we’ve got a cop in a robot suit as the Dark Knight.…

League of Legends took a big hit last night thanks to a bug affecting a standard teleporting move that every playable character regularly uses. While Riot still hasn’t gotten its hugely popular multiplayer game back up to full speed quite yet, the developer said that it’s now found a fix. The bug was first discovered…
There aren’t usually “endings” for mulitplayer games—it keeps going until people stop being interested. But the developers behind multiplayer horror game The Flock have different plans. The community has a finite number of lives burn through, and when they’re gone, it’s all over. Here’s the game’s setup: Set in the year 3000, an unrecognizable Earth…
