So I’ve been caught with a bug, it’s called amiibola and my life has been spiraling out of control for these damn Nintendo collectibles. I was lucky enough to snatch myself one of the rare retailer exclusive amiibo, Meta Knight. So, for your viewing pleasure I cobbled together a little unboxing video.
Nintendo was nice enough to send us a copy of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U early and we’ve been busy beating each other to a pulp. Leading up to the launch we’ll be playing tons of Smash and making videos. Which modes or characters do you want to see in glorious HD. Let us know and we’ll try to get more videos and stream on Twitch before the launch on Nov. 21.
We’ve got 4 codes to the Evolve Big Alpha on PC, first come first served. Please leave a comment saying which code you’ve used and enjoy!
Redeem these codes on Steam to get playing:

0PHZ7-X77Q2-QZ5X0

If you haven’t yet made the jump to the new generation of gaming, then head to your favorite retailer next week and pick up an Xbox One. For one week only – from September 7 through September 13 – when you buy an Xbox One from participating retailers in the U.S. and Canada, you’ll get a free Xbox One game of your choice. The offer is valid for any retail Xbox One game, and the offer is good for Xbox One system bundles, too – so if you want to pick up the Xbox One Madden NFL 15 Bundle or Forza Motorsport 5 Bundle, you’re getting another free game of your choice on top of it!
In Canada I found this promotion available at Future Shop, Best Buy and the Microsoft Store. Honestly though I’d rather get the special edition Destiny Bundle that includes a white PS4. However if you didn’t already have an Xbox one and were thinking of getting one, this week would probably be the right time to pick one up.

Check out some of the amazing League of Legends cosplay we were able to capture during our visit to PAX. I can’t believe how great all these costumes look, maybe one day we’ll see my ugly mug in this gallery wearing a costume. My personal favorite was the female version of Darius, SLAM DUNK! Which is your favorite? Also, if you happen to be one of the cosplayers in our gallery please leave a comment so people can find more of your work. I’ve only been playing League for month so give me a break if there are some non League cosplayers that have snuck in here.

For the first time ever, anyone can create 2D Mario levels using the Wii U GamePad controller. Making courses is easy, simply use the GamePad touch screen to easily drag and drop elements in your levels. Players can instantly playtest and edit their creations on the fly. With the tap of an icon, you can even switch the visual style between classic 8-bit Super Mario Bros and the HD world of New Super Mario Bros U. Mario Maker definitely looks like a unique title, check out the screenshots and trailer below.
