Former jewel thief reviews GTA 5’s jewelry heists A former jewel thief has taken Grand Theft Auto 5’s heists to task, and explains how he would have done it instead.
Youth crime prevention advocate and former jewel thief, Larry Lawton, took to YouTube to review GTA 5’s jewel heist missions, picking apart the details and explaining how Rockstar got it wrong. “I understand it’s a game, but I am to this day considered the biggest jewel robber in the United States,” he said. “And I’m gonna tell you how I would have done it. And what the game did a little off,” he said, introducing viewers to his review. Lawton says that Michael’s attempt to case the store, as depicted in the game, was “sloppy.” “As he’s casing the place, he’s taking pictures. Very conspicuous. You don’t think they would…

Twitch streamer brags she can’t get banned for nudity, immediately gets banned for nudity (NSFW) “Jeff [Bezos] lets me take my clothes off on Twitch. I've done it four times.”
Twitch streamer Wintrycelll had all the reasons in the world to feel confident she would get away with streaming in the nude. Twitch notoriously bans male streamers for the smallest infractions, while female streamers can stream animal torture and beastiality with no consequence. She’s also gotten away with streaming in the nude in the past – a total of four times, she says – which she attributes to her alleged friendly relations with Twitch/Amazon owner Jeff Bezos. But five appears to be the magic number in her case. “Jeff lets me take my clothes off on Twitch,” Wintrycelll bragged to her cohosts while playing GTA. “I can get naked right…

WATCH: mom rages on livestreaming son having a smelly gamer moment Gamers sometimes need to poop where they sit instead of wasting time going to the bathroom, but this mom won't tolerate gamer moments.
Who was in the wrong here? A viral livestream video has a mom rudely intruding on a gamer’s Mafia III livestream to order her son to, “Get off your game, go to the bathroom, and take a shit. Now.” Not getting a response, she continues, “Bathroom and shit now! I can smell you!” The gamer is confused and unable to understand her rage, so she explains: “You’re SHITTING yourself. Poop is coming out of your fucking asshole! Go to the bathroom!” “Not yet.” The stream was originally posted to creeperman 90‘s YouTube channel but it has since been deleted. The problem of gamers catching flak for festering in their own…

Meet Dovetail Games’ Train Simulator – currently the most expensive video game on Steam. The asking price isn’t much: a mere $30 depending on the region you’re in. It’s what comes after, if you want to get a good set of trains to play with, that makes the game run up a whopping total. (This is not counting gambling programs or being a whale in a mobile game like Clash of Clans, of course, where you can throw away millions if you’d like) As calculated on Steam itself per November 3, 2019, you’re going to need a grand total of $9,765.47 to own every single piece of downloadable content (DLC)…

Steam’s worst rated games of all time We decided to scrape the bottom of the Steam marketplace barrel and write about what we find.
Since Steam ended their Greenlight policy and opened the floodgates to anyone with a free copy of Unity and a bit of spare time, Steam’s mountains of crappy games have been the subject of some derision. It’s probably not a plot to send more traffic to curators and reviewers – … but it could be. Instead of shilling games you should buy right now, we decided to scrape the bottom of the barrel – some of the worst rated games around – and write about what we find. Most of these are not Tommy Wiseau tier games, entertainment so bad it actually becomes good again. So ask yourself why you…

Youtuber banned after hilarious murder—of female video game character Viral RDR2 video of feminist pixels being fed to alligator pixels was too much for YouTube in latest fiasco.
When Shirrako discovered an “annoying” suffragette in Red Dead Redemption 2, he thought it’d be funny to dispatch her in various creative ways and upload the clips to his YouTube channel about gaming. One of the videos showed his character using the cowboy game’s lasso to drag her to an alligator stationed outside town, which, it turns out, has a hankering for NPC meat. Watch this video on YouTube The video went viral right away, and that’s not always a good thing.
