I’ve always been a big fan of Pac-Man, that pill chomping yellow ball of the 80s video game craze. I’m not the only fan. Let’s take a look at some disturbing Pac-Man images that I’ve culled from the Net.
Killer Pac-Man
Whoever created this monsterpiece probably had a fixation on both Pac-Man and Jaws.

Hahahaha! I can’t stop laughing. I don’t know which is funnier: seeing The Goonies video game being played to the beat of Good Enough by Cyndi Lauper or watching Captain Lou Albano (who played Mario in the Super Mario Brothers animated series) in the music video for the movie The Goonies. I can’t make up […]

As promised, I’m here to talk about The Goonies, not really much about the movie of the same name, but the 8-bit video game that inspired an entire generation of video game addicts.
Actually, there’s not much to talk about as game features go. The only news concerning The Goonies is the fact that it has […]

I just want to share two videos I found about the impending release of Diablo III. Whew! It’s shaping up nicely … very nicely.

Well, it’s not exactly retro gaming, since Diablo III hasn’t even been launched yet. But its predecessors, Diablo, Diablo: Hellfire, Diablo II, and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, are already classics in their own right.
For now, though, let me focus on Diablo and its expansion Hellfire. These two are probably two of the most played […]

I’m starting to feel sorry for Mario and Luigi. So much fan fiction, most of which on YouTube, and a majority of them plays up the plumber brothers’ negative traits to the point of absurdity.
Take, for example, this video series, dubbed Stupid Mario Brothers, by Rich Alvarez. They portray Mario and Luigi in the worst […]

And I thought I knew everything there was to know about Super Mario Brothers for the Nintendo Entertainment System or Family Computer. I only correctly answered six of 15 questions! Sigh. I think I need to brush up on my Super Mario Brothers secrets.
Do you think you know more about the game than anyone else? […]

It’s time for another speed run, and this month’s lucky pick is Star Fox for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
I’ve only played Star Fox a few times in the past, but if I had a guide like this back then, I’d probably finish it, too … in a few days … or maybe a few […]

Yeah, my sentiments exactly—that is, if I belong to the generation of basketball fans (especially of the National Basketball Association) that only knows Shaquille O’Neal, Kobe Bryant, and Yao Ming. But I belong to the previous generation of basketball fans that idolizes Julius Erving, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Michael Jordan.
Wait a minute […]

Talk about fanaticism. Producing cartoons is one thing, but stop-motion animation is an entirely different animal, especially if it concerns Mario and his twisted world. But someone’s eventually bound to do it. And so we have Super Lego Mario—the video game Super Mario Brothers done in (what else!) Lego bricks.
So far I’ve watched three videos, […]
