The Witcher 3 Lets You Have Sex On A Unicorn

Yes, you read that right. A unicorn. Not one that’s alive, mind. A stuffed unicorn! But still: a unicorn. NSFW warning. The GIF above comes from the latest “Clueless Gamer” segment on Conan. I won’t bullshit you: Conan mostly spends his time making childish bad jokes about boning all the women he comes across in…

The Trailer for Star Ocean V with English Subtitles

Star Ocean V is a thing and it’s coming. Sadly, Square Enix hasn’t seen it fit to offer the announcement trailer in English for Western fans of the series. Fear not; that’s why I’m here. Star Ocean V: Integrity and Faithlessness, the fifth installment of the main Star Ocean series will take place between Star…

Old PlayStations Make Great Clocks

The original PlayStation isn’t only a fantastic console. It also makes a wonderful clock. Twitter user Rurue0111 created this do-it-yourself time keeper. It lights up when you press the power button. And when it’s bright, the console clock looks like this: [Photo: Rurue0111] Here, you can see it in action. How cool is that? It’s…

Deus Ex: Human Revolution Isn’t As Great As I Remembered It

Everyone has that one game they still remember playing for the first time. For me, it was Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Looking back, it seems weird—other games occupy my personal best-of list, but something about Human Revolution struck a distinct chord with me. It is a game I love. With the recent announcement of a…

Diablo III Player Reaches Level 70 In One Minute

Here’s an insanely skilled Diablo III player Dat Modz proving that it’s possible to get to max level in no time. Sixty-five seconds to be exact. That’s bloody impressive. And how is this possible? Dat Modz is on the game’s very rare (not THAT rare since patch 2.2, but still rare) Cow Level, and its…

Three Bloodborne Players Race Neck-And-Neck For The Fastest Kills

Care for a reminder of how good people can be at Bloodborne? I’ve got just the thing. The challenge, part of a PlayStation-sponsored competition hosted by VaatiVidya, was simple: You’ve got 15 minutes. Start a new game of Bloodborne, and kill as many human Hunter characters as you can. It pains me to watch people…

Meet The Head Transplant Doctor at The Center of a Metal Gear Conspiracy

For almost a week now, some parts of the gaming internet have been going nuts over the visual similarities between the doctor that features in the trailer for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and the controversial real-live Dr Sergio Canavero, the neurosurgeon who recently found sudden fame when he claimed that he was…

Ezio Sure Sounds Different In The New Assassin’s Creed

Assassin’s Creed’s most beloved hero makes a welcome cameo in this week’s Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China, but a change in voice casting has him sounding like a different person. Early on in the game, an elderly Ezio Auditore appears in a flashback/tutorial to train the game’s protagonist, the assassin Shao Jun. Here’s what he sounds…

We’re getting another Adventure Time game, coming to basically every platform imaginable in the fall. It’s set in a three-dimensional Land of Ooo—including Candy and Fire Kingdoms, Wizard City, and Castle Lemongrab—where Finn and Jake embark on an investigation initiated by their parents. It’s an adventure game, so it’ll mostly include a lot of wandering…

Two men were arrested this past Sunday for allegedly robbing a young woman in Itanhaém, Brazil. The crime was supposedly committed at gunpoint. Rather, light-gun point.

Star Wars Battlefront Looks Cool, But I’m Not Ready To Get Excited

Star Wars fans are easy marks. It’s one of our kind’s more endearing qualities, even while it tends to leave us vulnerable to being exploited. And we have been exploited, even by, perhaps accidentally, the man who created this universe and brand. When you’re sitting in a big room full of hardcore fans at Star…

Three Bloodborne Enemies Who Are Just The Worst

Each enemy in Bloodborne is a jerk in its own way, but some are worse jerks than others. I’ve played a ton of Bloodborne over the last several weeks. I’ve killed pretty much every enemy in the game, many times over. After all that, three enemies—excluding Hunters and bosses—stand out. I hate them so much.…

Life Is Strange Is Really Patronising

I really like the idea of Dontnod’s episodic game choice drama-em-up Life Is Strange, but really it just ended up making me wish it would shut up and let me experience it instead. Life Is Strange is a wonderful kind of idea: It’s five episodes long, gives us the much neglected teen girl player character…

Everyday life in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt looks so cool. The game just got a new gameplay trailer, full of combat, but the best-looking parts are the ones with the NPCs doing their medieval daily routine. Dayshot is an image-based feature that runs every morning, showcasing some of the prettiest, funniest game-related screenshots and…

I Wish It Were Easier To Play Bloodborne With My Friends

Bloodborne has a lot going for it. It’s one of the best, most engrossing games I’ve played in a while. But man, I sure do wish it were easier to play with my friends. Bloodborne is an online game. While you can technically play offline, the game’s truest incarnation requires an internet connection. It’s constantly…

Nintendo’s Most Famous Secret Code Returns On PlayStation

Nintendo gamers of a certain age knew the trick: type “Justin Bailey” into the password screen of Nintendo Entertainment System classic Metroid and the game’s hero would change outfits. Fast forward—oh my god, I’m old—twenty-nine years later. I’m playing Axiom Verge, a love letter to Metroid in the form of a brand new, downloadable PlayStation…

Bloodborne: The Kotaku Review

More than 46 hours later, the credits are rolling on Bloodborne. I’m breathing a sigh of relief. The hunt may be over, but I won’t soon forget the city of Yharnam. Bloodborne is a tremendous accomplishment. The latest game from Dark Souls director Hidetaki Miyazaki and his team at From Software, it is both a…

Bloodborne’s Multiplayer is The Soul of The Game

“Don’t give up.” This was exactly what I needed to hear during my first session of Bloodborne, a game I was prepared and excited for, but which nevertheless dealt me a merciless first few hours. This post originally appeared on Kotaku UK During this time I was at that frantic stage, common to Bloodborne’s precursors…
