The 14 Best Cyberpunk anime of all time

When on the hunt for the best cyberpunk anime of all time, you need to keep some things in mind. First, robots are cool. Second, lasers are cool. Third, number one is likely to beGhost in the Shell. This list is going to be appallingly biased because we are talking about art here, people. If you don’t understand the concept of subjectivity when it comes to such things, I can’t help you....

The Far Cry 4 devs toned it down for part two of their Himalayan excursion

No animal sacrifices this time As indicated bypart oneof the video series chronicling theFar Cry 4developers’ trip to the Himalayan region, they seemingly rushed off to watch an animal sacrifice nearly as soon as their plane touched down. The second part is a bit more reserved, if you consider riding on top of buses that are likely to careen off the road to be a step back. Fascinating cultural differences and dangerous feats aside, it’s interesting to watch the developers comment on aspects of the area, and how they’re going to incorporate them intoFar Cry 4....

The most wanted DS games of 2010

It’s time for a new DS. I don’t mean a new iteration of the DS we’ve been using for six years, I mean a new system; something more powerful than the PSP that can also double as a stun gun or a Foreman grill or some other thing that nobody but Nintendo thinks is a good idea, yet ends up becoming wildly popular anyway. 2010 would be a great time for a system like that....

The Simpsons: Medal of Homer trailer

Best. Trailer. Ever! If playing the demo for Electronic Arts’The Simpsonswasn’t enough to make me want to buy it, then this trailer sealed the deal. Making fun of other World War II games, the newestSimpsonsgame trailer takes scenes from their “Medal of Homer” level, and recreates those sappy fallen war heroes game trailers. No disrespect to the fallen war heroes, of course.I especially love the part where Homer scratches his butt — classicSimpsons....

The Warcraft movie is so popular in China it has its own beer

But does it come in pints? As you may have heard, theWarcraftfilm bombed in the US. But as youalsomay have heard, worldwide gross actually matters now, and because of China, it’s far and awaythe highest earning video game film of all time— and it’s still pretty early in its theatrical run. When we last checked in over a week ago it was at a $377 million worldwide gross, now it’s up to $412....

This new Panchamp Pokemon short is considerably less wacky than the original Poketoon

I miss the classic animation style, but this is fine too In 2020 The Pokemon Company debuted its first “Poketoon,”which managed to draw inspiration from classic cartoons of the Chuck Jones and Fleischer eras. It was a hit, and as expected, it takes time to prep more. Well, here we are! This Poketoon however is a stark contrast to the aforementioned goofy short, and is done in a more traditional reflective, slice of life anime style....

Best KSV loadout in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

The KSV is a truly fearsome weapon inCall of Duty: Black Ops 6, thanks to it being somewhat of a cross between an assault rifle and an SMG. With the right attachments, it can specialize into one of the other without losing its core identity of being a solid jack-of-all-trades. The KSV is not unlocked at the start of the game and requires you to reachlevel 7to gain access to it....

Binding of Isaac’s creepy baby heads coming in September

Edmund McMillen’s latest personal project,The Binding of Isaac, looks as weird as everything else the man has ever done in videogames. The latest trailer appears to place its focus on the variety of enemies Isaac will encounter as he flees his mother. It was made by James ID (who also made the totally radical 90’sSuper Meat Boytrailer) and is a little unsettling for some reason I can’t put my finger on....
