We are officially in the age of hour-long credit sequences at the end of games. Creating a game is not a single person’s job; it is a collaborative effort and requires contributions from a large number of individuals and Assassin’s Creed Shadows is the proof of it.

Video games are known for having big credit sequences; GTA 5’s 58-minute-long credit sequence was one of the longest until Assassin’s Creed Shadows came into the picture. You will be surprised by how long this game’s credit list is.

Few gaming channels have been churning out videos for as long as ScrewAttack. Since its launch in 2006, the ScrewAttack website--named for a move from the video game Metroid--has provided compelling content for its dedicated community. While ScrewAttack is perhaps best known for its yearly ScrewAttack Gaming Convention (Sgc), it has built up a significant following on its YouTube channel, which was recently bolstered through a deal with Fullscreen. We talked to ScrewAttack co-founder Craig Skistimas about the video portion of his website: Tubefilter: How does it feel to have one million subscribers? What do you have to say to your fans? ScrewAttack: Obviously it’s very cool and an honor to know that we have an amazing audience. With that said, I feel like we have a much deeper connection to our audience because we’re out at gaming events and producing our own events and meeting as many fans as we possibly can.

How far would you go to prove a point? A quick search on Google or Wikipedia? A few pounds and a “told you so!”? Or, would you spend masses of time and invest both money and a hell of a lot of hard work into creating a project to get your point across?

That’s just what New York-based Blue Core Studios has done with this fan-made Sonic the Hedgehog short movie. Created as a spec-film to scratch that Sonic movie itch and to prove that a real-life spliced with CGI Sonic movie is, indeed, possible, this 18 minute short introduces some of the game’s most noteworthy characters into a real-life world.

A prologue of sorts, here we see that the planet Mobius is under attack by the forces of Dr Robotnik,...

Revision3 announced the launch of its latest series, Death Battle!, which places two or more characters from video games, cult movies, and pop culture in an all-out, no holds barred slugfest to the death.
