- E3 2014 Round-up: Weird Tales from Los Angeles
Had you been on the floor of the Los Angeles Convention Center this year, you would have heard one question, echoing from journalist to journalist: "This year feels a little ... weird, don't you think?"

- Nintendo's White PlayStation 4
Nintendo's stockholders must have been pretty happy when the LA Times broke the news about them releasing a new PlayStation 4. What a twist!
- Abe Lincoln vs. the aliens
There is a video game in development where players fight off extraterrestrials using steampunk weaponry assigned to them by President Abraham Lincoln. It's called Code Name: STEAM. Yup, real thing.
- Pac-Man joins Smash Bros, despite rarely having limbs
Pac-Man will appear in Super Smash Bros. If we hadn't seen it for ourselves, we'd have thought the same people lying to us about how to unlock Sonic in Melee were behind the announcement. Un. Ex. Pected.
- Genetically enlarged livestock
That's a big cow.
- Devil's Third still lives on Wii U
Tomonobu Itagaki - the man behind the infamously-figured women of Dead or Alive- will bring Devil's Third to Wii U, and only Wii U. Eyebrow raised.
- Grim Fandango returns after 16 years
Hearing that adventure game Grim Fandango is coming to PS4 and Vita is kind of like hearing your friend say he saw Bigfoot. And then he shows you a picture.
- Diablo 3, meet The Last of Us
The Last of Us is a game. Diablo 3 is a game. So why not mash them together, peanut-butter-jelly-style, for a Last of Us-themed dungeon in Diablo 3 on PS4? Makes ... sense?
- Post-apocalyptic card battler Phantom Dust comes back
Phantom Dust, a fighter/arena combat game that debuted on the original Xbox, is getting another chance at life via the Xbox One. Didn't see that coming.
- Project Spark fouled up by a certain squirrel
Remember Rare's foul-mouthed squirrel, Conker? Well, he's back! In ... Project Spark? That's weird.
