Traditionally the summer months are a dead-zone for videogames. While the publishers insist on releasing the vast majority of their biggest games in the last few months of the year, other parts of the year are relativity barren. Not so for last week though, when we saw two eagerly anticipated releases in Watch Dogs and Mario Kart 8. Both of which have inspired the great gamer creative culture to produce some excellent stuff featured in this week’s edition of Bonus Stage.
Bonus Stage is your regular guide to what’s new in the world of videogame fandom, including cosplay, fanart, fan films and more! If you’ve created or found something you’d like to see featured in Bonus Stage drop me a line via twitter: @misterchristor, and maybe it will feature in a future instalment.

Geeky U has a nifty range of Zelda- inspired gear for sale.

Anyone who has played the more recent incarnations of Mario Kart knows of the pain inflicted by the Blue Shell. To mark the release of Mario Kart 8, Nintendo UK got local Youtube stars The (two man) Brett Domino Trio to record this musical tribute. We feel your pain…
