Wii Lives Up To Its Name
Thursday, January 3rd, 2008It probably looked something like this. IGN posted a funny story today that I thought I’d share. Actually, it was just an excuse to make one of those annoying ‘Calvin pees on something’ pictures, but it’s funny regardless. From IGN: UK, January 3, 2008 – Everyone’s favourite piece of London flotsam – free commuter rag [...]
Gamers! Tonight We Dine In Hell!!!
Saturday, December 29th, 2007There’s something hilarious about a game that is designed to do nothing more than taunt, harass, and utterly piss off anyone playing it. With the combination of annoying old school action game music, cheap tricks, and traps designed to screw over anyone with basic gaming instincts, this game has it all. I’m pretty sure this [...]
The Lost Nintendo Sex Ed. Tape
Monday, October 22nd, 2007There’s no way this is real, but I still got a few laughs from it. According to the youtube page, someone’s grandpa who works for the American Board of Education found it in the attic. Either way, does watching Princess Peach’s chest expand to the sound of old school Mario sound effects ever get old? [...]
The Baddest Tattoo You’ll See Today
Friday, October 12th, 2007I love the power glove, it’s so bad – and so is this tattoo, but not in good way. One look at this thing, and it makes me wonder how much alcohol was consumed before this actually started to seem like a good idea. I just wonder … if someone is gonna get such a [...]
Now THAT’S Hardcore
Monday, September 17th, 2007I just found this article on AOL.com and all I can say is, dude couldn’t brown bag a lunch and a red bull? Man Dies After Three Days Online AP Posted: 2007-09-17 11:21:06 Filed Under: Weird News BEIJING (Sept. 17) – A man in southern China appears to have died of exhaustion after a three-day [...]
I am Murloc!
Wednesday, July 18th, 2007I’ve seen my fair share of World of Warcraft videos set to metal music. Usually they’re nothing more than an hour of rogue #421,531 running around one-shotting casters. But not this video. This video combines what may be two of the most awesome things ever created – murloc’s and heavy metal. Is it me, or [...]
Manhunt 2 banned in England; ESRB bestows AO rating in US
Tuesday, June 19th, 2007Well, it had to happen sooner or later. Because of its violent content and (ostensibly) its Wii-specific interactivity, Manhunt 2 has been banned in England. Hot on the heels of this decision, the ERSB slapped the game with an AO rating here in the States. In a statement released to the press, Rockstar said: We [...]
Halo 3 – Society of the Ancients
Tuesday, June 19th, 2007In their latest episode of viral marketing, Microsoft has released a new video of a couple activists out on the street telling people about “Society of the Ancients”. But who are the Ancients? Taken from the website: Well, the truth is that we don’t know. There’s plenty of speculation out there that aliens looked like [...]
Movie-Based Video Games Are Always A Good Idea
Sunday, June 3rd, 2007I can understand the appeal of making video games based on movies, and vice versa. But, that doesn’t mean that it is always a good idea — it rarely is. Even worse, consumers don’t seem to notice or care. I, for the life of me, can’t understand how crap like Pixar’s Cars ends up being [...]
Sexy64 – All Guys Gaming League
Tuesday, May 29th, 2007From the dawn of time, man has pondered the nature of his existence. Questions like, are you man enough to play video games? Is someone a slut because they play video games? Do I really have what it takes to be a gamer? Questions such as this can really only be answered after much soul [...]
16 Ways To Pretend Your PS3 Is Fun
Tuesday, May 29th, 2007Sony’s marketing division has been hard at work trying to figure out how to convince gamers to spend $600 on the PS3. Could it be that they’ve finally nailed it after copying the Wii ad campaign? After looking at these pictures from a recent marketing effort, I gotta say, I never realized how much fun [...]
So That’s Where Yuna Got Her Hairstyle From …
Tuesday, May 29th, 2007All this time I thought it was some Japanese artist who gave Final Fantasy characters their sassy hairsprayed look. Not so. Turns out, the hairstyles really come from a little hispanic barber shop in downtown Chicago. Kotaku posted a couple pics from one of their users who stumbled across this shop in downtown Chicago, which [...]
Rejected Wii Play Games
Monday, May 28th, 2007I’m crossing my fingers that “Seal Hunt” only got held back so that they could include it in Wii Play 2. Who hasn’t fantasized at least a little about clubbing a baby seal? Don’t judge me. Share and Enjoy:
Let’s Blow Up Some Consoles!
Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007Screw Attack is pissed! Why? Because they are big fans of the Dallas Mavericks, who got destroyed by the Warriors in round 1 of the NBA playoffs. To help ease the pain, they took out their anger on some unfortunate consoles. Personally, I would have liked to see them also blow up an Atari Jaguar, [...]
NES Contra Speed Run With Zero Deaths
Monday, May 21st, 2007And you thought you were good at Contra? Pfft … Watch as this guy runs through the entire game without dying once. What I find really impressive about this, is that it isn’t one of those crappy tools-assisted runs where they slow down parts of the game so they can get through it without dying. [...]
