Overall, The NPD Group explained that consumers spent $605.2 million on gaming products at retailers in January, marking a 4% decrease from the same time last year ($627.6 million in January 2015). Hardware sales also accounted for $157 million in January, marking a 15% decrease from $185.4 million in the same period last y

Between those 5 modifications lies the inspiration to every Tim Burton film. From the lands of Skyrim to Liberty City in Grand Theft Auto , there's a variety of things like giraffes and retired wrestlers ready to pull off the ol' jump-scare. While there's thousands of horror-themed game modifications out there which can achieve the same effect, it's a special feat when a mod achieves the ability to be so creepy unintentionally. From us here at Game Rant, we wish you a Happy Hallow

As we run into December, it's that time of year again where gamers come together to debate, argue and ultimately celebrate the previous twelve months of gaming. While everyone will keep a mental note of their favorite game, Spike TV's awards ceremony often signals the beginning of 'Game of the Year' articles popping up just about everywhere on the internet. Although procedure was a little different this year as the VGAs went through a bit of a makeo

To reiterate, this car can be yours - but before you get all excited, you should be aware that the chance of it being yours is insanely slim, as this car is a one-of-a-kind. You can't buy it, you can't rent it, and you certainly can't steal a bumble-bee colored one for Brucie Kibbutz. Only one person will ever have the privilege of driving around while perhaps listening to some of the tracks slated to be on Los Santos' radio stations in a Banshee they can actually call their own. (For what it's worth, I recommend listening to Eddie Murphy's "Party All The Time" from Los Santo's classic rock station to the future winn

It goes without saying that adding that adding retired WWF (WWE) legend Macho Man Randy Savage to a game shouldn't make it terrifying. The Slim Jim snappin' wrestler was a popular figure with fans worldwide, and his colorful personality made him fun to watch on television. However, nothing could prepare us for what would happen if somebody replaced the dragons of Skyrim with Randy Savage. The way the theme music just subtly creeps in, the way the Randy Dragon's neck just seems to bend, everything combines for a traumatic experience that would fill the pants of the most stoic amongst us. We would rather fight a hundred normal Skyrim dragons than face off against one single Randy Savage dra

The NPD Group released their full statistics and chart for January 2016, with the top 10-selling physical releases for January 2016 listed below (platform listings for each title are ordered by top-selling platfo

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

This is it. When bad people die, they go into this game modification and are forced to live it out forever. The second Skyrim modification on our list takes a classic and nostalgic childhood symbol, the lovable Thomas The Tank Engine, and makes the toot-tooting educational symbol a horrifying, fire-breathing murderer. It's not this blatant attack on our childhood memories that makes it horrifying, it's the steadfast unblinking eyes and unwavering smile that make Thomas The Tank Engine one of the most horrifying things we've ever seen. As he toot-toots his way into your nightmares, gamers can be sure Thomas has no remorse. There are no tears. There are only tra

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 unknowingly created a noise that would make even Herobrine think twice about ever stepping foot outside in the dark ag

If you do pick up GTAV for one of the newer platforms, but are not a returning player, there's no need to feel left out. Rockstar noted that new content is coming for both new and old players, including classic GTA 5 tips|Https://gta5play.com/ cars. The rest of the surprises, however, will have to wait until the Xbox One and PS4 versions launch a few weeks from now. It's not yet clear if PC players will get even more extra toys to try out as well, since they have an extra two months to wait compared to console play

It was an incredibly strong showing for games this year with three major 'Game of the Year' contenders in Grand Theft Auto V , The Last of Us and BioShock Infinite all hogging the nominations. In fact, the program featured close categories throughout with Game of the Year, Studio of the Year, Best Independent Game and acting categories being especially tight ca
