Grand Theft Auto V, initially scheduled to hit shelves in Spring 2013, has been pushed back to September 17, 2013. The news comes from the official Rockstar games website. Here is what else we know: Rockstar games knows this release is four months later than originally planned but "it will be worth the extra time ... Read More ...

'World of Warcraft' is coming to the big screen, and 'Moon and 'Source Code' director Duncan Jones has been tapped to helm the project for Legendary Pictures. Though most video game film adaptations are lousy, this could be the best one yet.

The internet is rife with memes featuring old people, but some grandpas are just way more awesome than others.

Sometimes you need to watch a video of an old man spazzing out while playing a first-person shooter for the first time. If this is one of those times for you, then watch this video.

We would totally play this game, if only it were real. It seems like there are a million things going on and you could probably never win, but isn't that just like the PBS series 'Downton Abbey'?

To the uninitiated, Pokemon may seem awfully cute and cuddly. But true fans know there are weird, silly and sometimes downright horrifying creatures lurking in the Pokedex. Given that there's currently more than 600 characters in the pocket monster franchise, there are bound to be a few misfits, right?

Well, color us impressed. Usually when we want to play Mario Kart, we spend thirty minutes looking for the Wii steering wheel, then just give up and re-watch the second season of 'Game of Thrones.' So, good for these guys! They've got enough initiative to make up for the rest of us...

Ever since Atari introduced 'Pong' more than 40 years ago, video games have become an immensely popular form of home entertainment. But their legacy isn't simply ruined eyesight, carpal tunnel syndrome and short attention spans. They've also profoundly changed the way we think and even given us new ways to communicate.

We're already excited for DreamWorks' 'Need for Speed' video game-adapted movie because 'Breaking Bad' star Aaron Paul is leading the cast, but now the flick is getting even more star power by adding another big name into the mix -- rapper Kid Cudi.

It's no secret we're pretty big into video games and the whole idea of bringing some of the fan favorites to life on the big screen. With Ghost Recon, Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell, Deus Ex, Need for Speed and God of War as the latest ones to start preliminary motions for their companion movies, we still have our own list of bestsellers we'd like to see join in on the action, one of which is def

Feng's son Xiao had been a good student with a promising future. But according to Feng, who lives with his son in China, Xiao got really into video games in high school and his obsession was such that he hadn't found a job or moved out of the house by 23.

Last year was a great year for video games, and especially Ubisoft. The company experienced continued success with its best-selling games, like Assassin's Creed and Splinter Cell, both of which were also announced to receive the big screen treatment. Fortunately for fans of the video game movie genre, Ubisoft has big plans for this venture into film, recently announcing the next big gaming sensati

Christmas-themed video games might seem like the best way for developers to cash in on the holiday season, but there's a conspicuous lack of these titles on the market. Believe it or not, this is a good thing, because the vast majority of Christmas games to date have been pretty bad and, what's more, inexplicably weird.

Oh good! It may as well be December, which means we can cue the Christmas warm and fuzzies. Even though some people think of Reddit as a bastion of misogyny and smut, this story made the front page, and it's totally heartwarming and wholesome. It's about one Redditor with a heart of gold who saved Christmas for another Redditor's son.

It was 40 years ago today that the video game 'Pong' was introduced. Pong was the first video game to go mainstream at home and in the arcade. I was too young to remember the beginnings of 'Pong' but I do remember playing a Pong like game called 'Breakout' on my Gemini system.

Over the years, Hollywood has taught us one thing -- it's easy to churn out movies based on video games, but a whole lot more difficult to make them watchable. For every semi-decent 'Resident Evil' or 'Tomb Raider' flick, there's a stinker like 'Silent Hill,' 'Doom,' 'Bloodrayne,' 'Wing Commander' and, perhaps worst of all, 'Super Mario Bros.'
