For plenty of gamers who plied their trade in Grand Theft Auto 4 , Niko Bellic just wasn’t much of a relatable character. Thankfully, someone thought of a great idea – why not replace him with a giraffe, which is clearly a more relatable character for the average person. The video above demonstrates exactly why giraffes are kept in cages – because let loose, their murderous killing streak and godlike strength ascends into something far, far more horrifying. The way the giraffe’s neck stiffly defies physics, coupled with the fact that gamers are, you know, playing as a giraffe as they murder and steal cars, make this mod eerily unsettling to watch. Consider our trip to the zoo cancel
Minecraft is no stranger to user-made modifications, and plenty of horror-based modifications already exist for the recently-acquired property . However, one game modification which wasn’t intended to be scary in any way ended up outdoing them all, and we’re not ashamed to say we may have fallen out of a chair when we first heard this mod. When one man set out on a quest to make the Minecraft creepers sound like the character Lemon Grab from Adventure Time , he said unknowingly created a noise that would make even Herobrine think twice about ever stepping foot outside in the dark ag
It’s been more than a year since Grand Theft Auto V and GTA Online released, yet the highly requested implementation of online heists are still missing from the game. Over the year we’ve gone from hearing next to nothing about it; being told it’s coming soon, then learning it’ll come in an update after the current-gen versions release. Contrary to the hopes of a late December release due to a rumor of the content’s date , however, eager GTA Online players will have to wait until 2015 for the online heists. Specifically, ‘early 2015.’ The teasing (and lengthy waiting) contin
Alternatively, Fonteno could actually be referring to Heist gameplay – instead of standalone story DLC. It has been noted that the latest trailer for the mode featured plenty of cut-scenes as well as voice acting and while plenty of people are excited for GTA Online Heists as it is, a cameo from Franklin would be a draw (or at least a nice Easter egg) for f
While Fonteno did not explicitly state that the DLC in question is for GTA V ‘s story mode, it is incredibly likely. This time last year, Rockstar explained that “For those ready to jump back into the story of Grand Theft Auto V, we have big plans for substantial additions in 2014 continuing Michael, Franklin and Trevor’s action, mayhem and unexpected adventures in Southern San Andre
At launch, there will be five separate heists, comprised of at least 20 missions. Heists will, of course, be replayable, allowing players to try out the different roles and maybe, just maybe, understand what it’s like to be the getaway dri
In the end, what we got was a seemingly fair distribution of awards with GTA V winning the Best Game, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag winning the Best Action/Adventure, BioShock Infinite winning Best Shooter and Naughty Dog winning the Best Stu
But, with just nine days left in 2014 it doesn’t seem as though the developer is going to make its original timeline – maybe they’ve been too busy with the game’s release on Xbox One and PS4. That’s especially true when you consider that Rockstar is also working on GTA Online’s Heists as well as the PC release of the game , which are both scheduled for early 2
Previously known as the Spike Video Game Awards (VGAs), the show has had a lick of paint over the last year being re-branded as VGX . While it put bigger focus on reveals such as a new generation remaster of Tomb Raider and Telltale Games taking on both Game of Thrones and Borderland s episodic series, the entire affair was still framed by awa
What say you? Do you think VGX correctly called game of the year? Is there any other category you particularly disagree with? Stick up for your game of choice in the comments below, but just remember to play n
The video game industry has been a little unstable with its expectations in the last few years. Several top franchise games failed to meet lofty revenue goals – despite selling very well in their own right. Resident Evil 6 was deemed to have “fallen short of the plan” despite selling several million copies. Tomb Raide r , which sold 3.8 million copies at the time of the report, was deemed an “extraordinary loss” by Square Enix . Some blame the high expectations on Call of Duty with companies pumping more and more money into their games to try and replace the military shooter as one of the industry’s most consistent sell
The DLC timeline of GTA IV also suggests that GTA V could be in line for some story DLC of its own soon. GTA IV ‘s The Ballad of Gay Tony and Lost and Damned DLC packs were released less than a year and a half after the release of the core game – so if Rockstar is employing a similar release strategy, we’d better get our wallets re
