Play DuckHunt on MySpace on InterNet

April 30, 2006 by Dave

It may not be legal, but you can play a whole bunch of NES games in your browser using Java. It also gives you the code to post the games in your blog or whatnot. I could already play NES games on my cell phone but it looks like they’ve got a whole bunch of […]

Resident Evil 5

April 26, 2006 by drscotto

Resident Evil 5 is slated to come out on the next generation console PS3. I wanted to share the teaser-trailor with the readers of this site.

She's got a Ticket to Ride (Marklin)

April 24, 2006 by Dave

We have a new featured boardgame, and it’s Ticket to Ride: Marklin, the newest in Alan Moon’s easy to play, difficult to master train series. Why did I select it as a featured game? Tickets and Passengers!

Hilarity Ensues

April 24, 2006 by Bartoneus

This clip is simply too hilarious not to post on here. It’s a commercial for Firefox that is fane-made, which just shows how talented some people are outside of any particular business like marketing. The simplicity and retardedness are what make it really shine, but trust me, if you’ve ever used the internet (if you […]
