Oh god, why, Ash? I don’t know why this gif of Ash twerkin’ exists, but it had to be shared. Y’know, in case you haven’t had your daily dose of twerk.(Via .hardp!nq, thanks Lulu)

If Dr. Seuss Recapped The Walking Dead For You

Haven’t been keeping up with the latest episodes of The Walking Dead? Well, that’s alright. Here’s a fantastic recap of season 3 of the show, done in the style of Dr. Seuss. Now if only the folks at CineFix could do all the other seasons in this style too…alas! The Seussing Dead – Walking Dead…

Possibly The Best GLaDOS Cosplay Ever. Dang.

Now, we’ve featured plenty of GLaDOS cosplayers before—all great!—but no cosplay, to our knowledge, has ever done GLaDOS like this before. The cosplayer suspended in the air is none other than Enayla, and she says the Portal 2 costume took a few months to make. Though we caught a few seconds of this cosplay in…

Remember When Japanese Games Replaced Alcohol With Coffee?

I’ve been playing some Grandia on my Vita recently, and when I saw this moment last night, I thought it was too ridiculous not to share. “Wow, they even have coffee here!” Justin remarks, while staring at a gigantic beer keg, in front of what is clearly a bar. Oh, JRPG censorship, how funny you…

Nintendo 64 Games Had Some Of The Best Glitches

The graphics of early 3D games such as Donkey Kong 64, Conker’s Bad Fur Day or The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time on the Nintendo 64 are just perfect for silly, glitchy corruptions that have become an artform lately, thanks to the one and only Vinesauce Vidya on YouTube (who we’ve featured a few…

Final Fantasy XIV MMO Log One: There Is No Hate Here

I got a lot of flack last weekend when I wrote about Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn‘s launch being a disaster. I get the feeling people thought I was dissing the game. That’s just not true. I was dissing the fact that so many people who wanted to play it could not do so,…

Your Handy Dandy Guide To Playing Support On League of Legends

Kryptonite-Snorting Evil Superman Is My Favorite Comic Panel This Week

Let’s make things clear here: this is a hate-like. I don’t actually like the comic where a malevolent, alternate reality version of Superman snorts remnants of a dead planet. But that scene is a tidy capsule of what’s ailing DC Comics nowadays. Warning: Spoilers for Forever Evil #1 follow. The scene above takes place in…

Fairy Tales Aren’t All Sugar And Sunshine In The Wolf Among Us

What if fairy tales were real? What if wolves and demons and talking mice walked right up to the counter at the grocery store and swiped their milk across the scanners just like you do? What if your jerk neighbor who screams like a boar every time he fights with his wife actually was a…

Magikarp 3DS Is The Most Glorious 3DS: check out the sweet Pokemon decal on cheezus_christ_‘s 3DS. Jealous much? (Via r/pokemon)

Behind The Scenes Of One Of The PS4’s Biggest Games

When Brad Meyer wants to create fire, he doesn’t just light a match. He rubs two pieces of charcoal together, then burns some charcoal, then pours water on burning charcoal, then rubs more charcoal together, then drops charcoal on a steel chimney, then crushes up charcoal with a mortar and pestle, and then, just for…

No Random Encounters this week—sorry folks! But today’s a big day for JRPG fans nonetheless. Go play Trails in the Sky to celebrate!

McDonald’s Mighty Wings: The Snacktaku Review

As you watch this video Snacktaku review for McDonald’s new Mighty Wings, try not to think about how horribly sick I feel the day after recording it. I sure am.

Screw Next-Gen Controllers, This Dungeon Crawler Uses A DDR Pad

Yeah, the DualShock 4’s got that fancy Share button. And the Xbox One controller sounds like it’s doing cool stuff with feedback. But, know this: if people all over the world start powering up Dance Dance Revolution dancepads again, it’s because Crypt of the Necrodancer looks like it’s going to be freaking awesome. Brace Yourself…

The Truth Is Last Year’s Games Had Problems. This Year’s Are…Better?

Usually, if someone wants to convince you that the video game they’re making is going to be great, they tell you what they’re putting in it. But what if they made nearly the same game a year ago? They have to take a different approach. This is the plight of the people who make big-time…
