As most of us already know, nothing complements a good game like a bunch of fresh, hand-picked memes. In addition to news and updates from the gaming world, our twitter is constantly abuzz with new goofs and gags, so we’ve compiled a list featuring the ones that have truly managed to resonate with us on a personal level. Enjoy!

10. New Smash Roster Leaked?!

A new Smash Bros is coming, and with it a new teaser! Although the game’s roster is currently unknown, a savvy internet detective on Reddit had already managed to crack the identity of our shadow-shrouded brawlers using some nifty Photoshop magic. Newly introduced characters feature gaming icons that have been requested for years, including: John Cena, Pepe the Frog, and of course the fan-favorite Shrek.

9. Smash Bros Leaked Gameplay

Turning away from the traditional 2D gameplay the series have so far been known for, Nintendo is now apparently turning towards a grittier, more realistic brawl game. We’ve got to say, we can’t wait for the opportunity to suplex Kirby using Pikachu.

(Admittedly, this video dates back all the way to 2013, but it’s way too good to pass on)

8. These Gosh-Darn Fortnite Architects

Alternative title: “Why is everyone else better than me at Fortnite?”

7. Sometimes In PUBG, You Have To Risk It To Get The Biscuit

If you need guns, armor, or increasing your IRL blood pressure by roughly 90 points, simply drop at any of these locations to get your fix. Chances of survival are slim but the loot sure is phat.

6. Mario Is A Public Menace

In a surprising twist, Mario’s crumbling love-life and crushing student debt will be the center feature of the upcoming “Super Pedestrian Bros.”

5. Why Play Games When You Can Enslave Your PC For Money?

Anyone who has recently bought a new graphic card following the crypto-related price hike can relate to this meme. We must free our beautiful graphic cards from the tyranny of crypto-miners and have them do what they know and love best: playing gorgeous games at a crisp 1080p with smooth framerates.

5. Better Grab That Tactical Frying Pan

I mean, I guess it makes sense that people often beat me to the punch in Pochinki so often, given how dangerous it is (and how bad I am). It sure would be nice to be able to be there for more than three minutes without having my brain plastered all over the hangar, though.

4. Reinhardt’s Wild Adventure

Overwatch will always have a special place in my heart just because of moments like this. Where else can you find both a highly competitive team-shooter and a space-flight simulator in the same game?

2. The Ascension

UFC offers a roster full of well-known fighters featuring their famous moves. Here we can see Malachai’s signature move, in which — using the power of pure willpower and bad code — he vibrates his body so quickly as to bend physics to his will, delivering his opponent straight to Valhalla.

You can only blame performance issues for so long. The truth will eventually come out. I’m looking at you, every random person I’ve ever teamed up with.
