Pinocchio is a lot more entertaining than a real boy, though. Make of that what you will.

That looks a lot more like Wolfenstein 3D than Doom, to be honest… I’m sure this is what they were going for

Umm, if the Xbox Series S is already all-digital, and the Series X refresh is switching to all-digital as well, does that mean there won’t be any disc support available in the 2024+ console lineup?! That could pose a problem for people with existing physical media libraries if they ever need to replace their console,…

Going that extra mile to actually hide a naked peach sprite in a mario game would really put the devs in hot water, as these things always end up being discovered. See: Hot Coffee mod. Also, given that the Internet is the Internet, I’m also pretty sure there’s no shortage of naked Peach material out there for those…

I’m gonna go ahead and say she’s breaking character with the whole costume thing, based on this quote from Paper Mario: TTYD. A good question, however: will Nintendo think to maybe change this line in the TTYD remaster, knowing that Princess Peach: Showtime! is coming out like pretty much at the same time?…

I suspect he’ll be working, as usual, on logo art for the next Final Fantasy game. His contribution to that brand has been mostly limited to logo design after Final Fantasy IX (and even then, he didn’t do any character or set design for 7 or 8, and didn’t do any after either). Would be very intrigued to see him work…

I’ve got a PS4 with P.T. installed. How much would that go for?

It’s comforting that despite there no longer being any of the old guard left working at Kotaku, the fish lives on.

“what happens to their closes when they self-destruct”

“Folx”? What the heck kind of spelling is that?

I’m guessing most people know Zero Two from the dance thing. I watched the show and enjoyed it up to where it kinda fell apart. Still saw it through to the end, but what were they thinking?! I wouldn’t get any Zero Two car merch or any Zero Two merch for that matter, or car merch.

Let’s not forget the 20 rows of fucking Taboola shitposts at the end of each article, with a few actual links to other Kotaku pages sprinkled in to add to the confusion.

I wanted to try out Diablo IV when it eventually gets a price drop, I’m pretty broke at the moment, but I’m having more and more second thoughts... Everything seems so Battle Pass this! Seasons that!

To be fair, though, a lot of actual art looks like dogshit and is sometimes actually deliberately doing it... If they were going for the “Dogshit AI Tripping Balls” aesthetic, it’s certainly consistent and the sequence is an interesting watch, perhaps for many of the wrong reasons, though. I’m not at all disturbed by…

I mean, it’s actually an interesting idea, with the piece of Normandy serving as a base for the statue. It’s not the kind of pose that’s very typical and it does represent a memorable moment in the series. It has a lot of things going for it and is certainly one of the more original pieces of memorabilia.

I love when games incorporate some kind of recaps, I often take a very long time to play long RPGs due to limited gaming time available, and occasionally need to put some games down for several days or weeks. There’s nothing I hate more than having to throw everything at the wall until something sticks when I pick up…

Tell that to Tolkien. The annexes are very useful in Lord of the Rings, and invaluable in the Silmarillion. He’s still considered one of the greatest fantasy authors of all time, and those are clearly his most praised writings.

To be fair, Triangle Strategy already implemented this kind of “who’s who in this cutscene?” feature before that, and it was REALLY useful when trying to familiarize with the large cast of characters. You could basically bring up a pop-up screen whenever a character was speaking to see more info about that character,…

Except Final Fantasy IX is pretty fucking dark…

came here for this.
