You Should Buy The OG Halo Instead Of The Pricey Infinite Skin
8.11.2023
Though Halo Infinite might be drawing folks back with its expanding map diversity and new customization options, the in-game cosmetics shop is still rubbing fans the wrong way. A recent skin intended to be a tribute to the very first Halo game, 2001’s Halo: Combat Evolved, is drawing a bit...

Halo Infinite Is So Back, Baby
3.8.2023
I’m an uncompromising, loud-mouthed Halo apologist, but even I fell off of Halo Infinite. Despite 343 Industries’ latest game feeling just as good as a Halo game should, its strange, staccato launch and lack of new maps surrounded it with an air of perpetual stagnation for nearly two years....

Halo Infinite Players Discover Automatic Weapon Is Automatic
11.1.2022
Halo Infinite launched with a bunch of new-to-the-series weapons, some of which have functions that aren’t immediately apparent. The heatwave can shoot both vertically and horizontally. The mangler deals 117 percent more damage if you’re playing against a pro. And—hopefully you’re sitting down...
Hilarious Halo Infinite Glitch Turns Warthogs Into Go-Karts
8.12.2021
Despite its trappings as a jingoistic space opera, the Halo franchise often finds itself straddling the line between serious and humorous. The latest example of this phenomenon is a glitch that sees the series’ ubiquitous Warthog jeeps shrunk down to comical proportions during multiplayer...
The Best Fan-Made Anime Cars In Forza Horizon 5

There’s only one place you’ll find a pristine 1957 BMW Isetta 300 cosplaying as a character from 1988 Miyazaki classic My Neighbor Totoro, and I don’t mean my personal garage. The Forza Horizon series has long been a place where anime fans and car enthusiasts come together, and Forza Horizon 5...
The Top 15 Halo Multiplayer Maps

By my own rough count, the Halo series has seen some 150 or so multiplayer maps over the course of its two decades. Many of these are good. Some are great. And of course, some are terrible. For this list, I and my fellow Kotaku Halo fans tried to narrow this extensive field down to what we consider...

For the past few years, the internet has grappled with a cold case: Remember that game that was, like, a farming sim, kinda like Harvest Moon, but you have to kill your wife and keep her body hidden from the police? What was it called, again? It had the ring of a creepypasta, but it also sounded...
