We've all experienced that sickening feeling when we're geared up to dive right into our game of choice, and something goes pop. Or boom. Or flashes. Or whimpers. Games hardware, unfortunately, doesn't last forever, and repairs or even full...

Back up your saves. Dust all your consoles. Buy protectors and scratch-proof cases. Eject your discs properly. Choose life. That's what all the clever clogs say, sometimes chastising you while you grieve. But some of us like to live life on...

Sea of Thieves is in beta right now (and it just got extended a few days) and that means all sorts of weird things can happen while developer Rare works out the kinks. For a lot of people, that means boring and frustrating stuff like ...

I used to be a pretty big scaredy cat when it came to games (not so much with films, though – the interactive side to games really had the potential to freak me out). After toughing it out for a few weeks with REmake earlier on i...

"Input lag" has become a particularly common phrase thrown around fighting games in recent years. Though I heard it rarely around fighting game folk in the '00s, and barely ever in the '90s, it has become a common complaint referred to when...

The original Metroid casts a long shadow, and it's clearly had an enormous influence on current-day game creators. The concept of an interconnected world where progress is gated by your abilities never really gets old, and it's resonat...

[Update: As of ver. 1.1.2, the ticket glitch no longer works.] Those precious meal tickets are hard to come by in Splatoon 2. Currently, they’re only available through Salmon Run and the single-player modes. However, an easy exploit h...

A week of incredible speed-running came to an end today as the curtain fell on charity-drive Summer Games Done Quick, with a final total raised of $1,760 415 on stream closure.The figure beat last year's total of $1,294,139 and was raised b...

This past Friday, the first piece of downloadable content for Zelda: Breath of the Wild was released. Aside from being able to terrify the denizens of Hyrule by dressing like Tingle, this expansion also includes the Master Trials.  Thi...

Neuromods are the lifeblood of Prey. The whole reason the TranStar Corporation refitted the game's abandoned space station into a research facility was in pursuit of neuroscience. Scientific breakthroughs led to the development of Neuromod...

Super Mario Maker was a fantastic game at launch on Wii U, but it just needed some extra love and care to really be the best it could be. Nintendo sort of kind of obliged with a few content updates and some officially sanctioned levels...

Between Breath of the Wild's Aris Beach and Clarnet Coast lies an unassuming, yet somewhat mysterious, chest. At first glance, it appears to be just like every other metallic chest that's submerged underwater, although this one al...

This beautiful, happy accident from an early build (since ironed out) of MLB The Show 17 made the rounds this weekend, set off by this tweet: I just didn't want any of you to miss it. I consider it a visual expression of how my soul feels...

For weeks now, enterprising and unscrupulous Overwatch players have been using an exploit to give themselves an almost unbeatable edge in the game's new three-on-three Last Team Standing mode. There's a bug where players can use Mei's ...

Just so I don't get yelled at for spoilers, here's a paragraph of unrelated nonsense to fill out anywhere text would automatically fill up. Go watch the trailer for The Mummy -- it's a Tom Cruise-led, militarized Hollywood ACTION!!! remake ...

ReCore's optional dungeons are the purest parts of the game. They're self-contained challenges that put an emphasis on platforming, combat, or exploration. These are the three core tenets of the whole game, but these dungeons' lean nat...

GameSprout has spliced together a bunch of FIFA 17 glitches from across the web, including the above video of Manchester United's Zlatan Ibrahimović proudly celebrating giving a rimjob to the opposing goalkeeper. The hot, man-on-man a...

Down three with six seconds left, the Tennessee Titans are attempting a field goal to take the game to overtime. The kick is short, the Minnesota Vikings return man catches it in the end zone, and immediately starts celebrating his touchdo...

Like a couple of curious cats, this pair of Mercys wondered if there's a way to travel through the great abyss on Overwatch's Nepal map. And, like the cats, curiosity killed them. Lucky for them, they can just bring each other back to life...

From constantly falling through the environment and getting stuck weird places to cheating boss fights, The Division is glitchy, and that's to say nothing of the enterprising PC players able to give themselves infinite health, infinite ammo...

This week's Incursions update to The Division brought many changes to the game, including Falcon Lost -- the most difficult mission to date. It's considered end-game content, and Ubisoft won't even let people play it unless their entir...

Do you wanna glitch the hell out of the 3DS ports of Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow? I hadn't planned on it, exactly. But I've never encountered "MissingNo" first-hand before, and this weekend seems like the appropriate time to do so....

What is the meaning of life? I'm not sure, but I'm beginning to believe it's lurking somewhere in this ridiculously in-depth Super Mario 64 glitch video commentated by pannenkoek2012. The video, a breakdown of the game's inner workings and ...

Super Smash Bros. on Wii U was a pretty polished game at launch, with very little in the way of bugs and glitches. Still, this has not stopped people digging around in the game seeing what corners and cracks they can find hidden in its dept...

According to reports on reddit, some players are experiencing significant issues with newly launched Just Cause 3. As reported by VG247, some framerate and performance issues can be resolved on PC by way of a graphics and performa...
