This video is amazing and should be required viewing before you're allowed to play Call of Duty. You should be strapped into a chair Clockwork Orange-style and shown it on repeat until you can fucking behave yourself during the game. » 11/20/13 8:30pm 11/20/13 8:30pm

The wildly successful video game Disney Infinity will be introducing five new characters this month, including three Disney Princesses! (But none of the ones from your singalong childhood.)

From Ever, Jane: The Virtual World of Jane Austen's KickStarter page:"In the virtual world of Jane Austen, it is not about kill or be killed, but invite and be invited with gossip our weapon of choice."

Much unlike many a magazine editor who recommends you buy all sorts of crap that they most likely got for free, your Jezebel staff doesn't get jack shit (other than books, unsolicited). And that's how it should be. But on our own time, in our personal lives, we still buy stuff. So this is Worth It, our recommendation… » 8/19/13 10:00am 8/19/13 10:00am

The Mary Sue had a frustrating article up today about the almost trollish behavior of the XBox Live Support Twitter in regards to a woman reporting rape threats in Call of Duty. It seems as if Xbox Live's response to rape threats is a big old "eh. *shrug*". » 8/13/13 10:45pm 8/13/13 10:45pm

There's a new game where Karl Lagerfeld insults you, and you get back at him by stealing his sunglasses. Although stealing his sunglasses probably isn't the first thing I'd do if I were face to face with that condescending asshat. » 6/20/13 8:30pm 6/20/13 8:30pm

The realm of propaganda meant to recruit women into scientific or technological fields is often embarassingly off the mark.
