These 'GTA V' Brutal Kill Compilations Are Absolutely Hilarious
Schadenfreude n. Pleasure derived by someone from another person's misfortune. Can you believe it's been four years since Grand Theft Auto V came out? The game took the world by storm back in 2013 and it's been providing bloody good fun ever since. At first it was just with its great gameplay and fun story. People contended themselves with getting achievements or maybe sussing out the secrets of Mt. Chiliad but for some that might get boring very quickly. So what do you do the pass the time in a game that lets you do everything?

'Overwatch' Cosplayers Are Already Jumping On Tracer and Emily
The comic "Reflections" came out from Blizzard recently and besides the usual holiday package of feels, it also caused quite a stir. The highlight of the holiday romp was the revelation of Tracer's live in partner, Emily. #Blizzard hinted at one of the heroes being a member of the #LGBTQ community for a bit and this big reveal had a lot of people rather excited with others being markedly devastated over the death of Widowtracer. We're not here to talk about that bit, though. What we are here for is to admire the fact that cosplayers wasted no time in celebrating Tracer and Emily.

A Look At The Best Cosplay from Blizzcon 2016
I feel like every year Blizzcon proves that it brings out the gold standard of cosplaying. Yes, there are also fantastic panels and awesome announcements surrounding their many, strangely addicting intellectual properties. That part we all know and look forward to. But if you're a fan of cosplay then you know that Blizzcon is definitely the place to be to see some of the very best. This year did not disappoint and, man, were there some sights to see.

These 20 Nerdy Cospups Will Melt Your Heart
We've taken a look at Vox the Overdoge on multiple occasions and basked in his cuteness with wholehearted enthusiasm. I'm sure we all love Vox very much and would gladly give him the snuggles he absolutely deserves. That being said, he's not the only cosplaying dog out there. Indeed for as long as man had the blessed companionship of dogs, man has dressed those dogs up.

This Is The Single Best Blanche Cosplay in the World, I'm Serious
Pokémon GO is top of mind again as new updates are rolled out and as there have been some incidents that have been a little worrying for players. Even with the terrors of PokéGo-ing, people are still playing it and, more than that, people are still (and will continue to) cosplaying as our lovely team leaders. Like this holy-crap-good cosplay.

What We Know About 'Loverwatch' The Overwatch Dating Sim
Did you know someone was making a dating sim based on Overwatch? Of course you did, you're probably all about that life. That was a quick and broad assumption. However, if the internet has taught me anything about Overwatch, it's that people seem to be in it as much for the crazy fan theories, the awesome cosplay, and shipping as they are for the shooting.
