More Good Stuff For MGO So it looks like my hopes for this are actually right for once. Here's another video that shows that the debacle with Konami and getting this whole thing set up should be worth it all. The video here is actual game play from a bunch of people in Japan. I had no audio when watching it, but from descriptions of it, I can see it being just a bunch of Japanese yelling and gun shots. So go ahead and watch the video and I'll continue below. Go ahead.

Mario Theme Played with RC Car and Bottles This was just too awesome to not talk about. Once you watch it, you will be in total agreement. Or I will just be that jerk that said you would...please don't make me that jerk. :) Like the description says, a group of guys got together and actually set it up so they could drive an RC car and play the legendary theme using just wine bottles and metal things. It is really good up until it gets to the dual bottle section. Then it takes a little bit of listening to keep the theme going. Read More...

Kids Who Don't Play Video Games Are At Risk Ok, so I know this is always a hot topic for all gamers and the community. Hence why I am posting about this. It's actually a good point in our court. It is a study that has been going on to show that not playing games can contribute to violent and negative behavior. I know right. Sounds a little out there, but these two researchers have spent years looking at the lesser headline grabber than the norm. Read More...

USA Today’s Marc Saltzman lays out the controversial aspects of the upcoming Grand Theft Auto IV.  GTA IV will be the subject of much scrutiny when it launches on April 29th. Saltzman writes: Not unlike previous GTA games, Grand Theft Auto IV will ruffle feathers among concerned parents, politicians and activists. You still can kill police, but it’s wiser to avoid these shootouts because if you’re arrested, you’ll lose all your money and weapons and fail the mission. Though they’ll try to jump out of the way, you also can drive into pedestrians. Read More...

Space Invaders Pillow 30 years now. That's just crazy to think about. But it looks like the game as finally made it to the ripe age of 30 years now. Man that makes me feel old. Especially since I remember playing the game as a kid and thinking it was the best thing ever. Now I just have the clouded fond memories. But on the plus side, there is a way that I can have those memories locked in a bit more firm...with a nice comfy pillow. Read More...

As some of you may know Calamity, Clov3r, Riotmonster, and I are running something called The Pwned.com Pokemon League. And this Narticle is being written to reach the masses, and call all pokemon trainers to participate in our League. Allow me to tell you a little about this: What It Is: Pokemon, as I am sure you all know, is a game where you raise monsters to battle them against other trainers. To Participate in the tournament, you will need a Nintendo DS lite, a wireless internet connection, and either Pokemon Diamond or Pokemon Pearl. Starting on June 14th, we pair trainers up to battle (via drawing names from a hat randomly) and over the next several days or what could even be weeks, we do a bracket-style Battle Royale similar to the March Madness brackets for basketball: the winner from one match goes on to battle the winner from another and so on and so forth.
