Mario and Sonic merge once again; Result of Gay Marriage being legal?

July 18, 2008 by myka

It was recently discovered by the folks at Kotaku.com that a Mario and Sonic collaboration game is in the works. So it begs the questions... what will they do? We've already seen the, easy way out, minigames compilation, which was hardly satisfying. Heres a look inside my mind and what I came up with.
Have some ideas of your own? Hit the comments!
  • Mario and Sonic: Gay Marriage Simulation - This is a hot topic in current events with California allowing gay marriage. Would the two icons look to cash in on the hype that Adam Sandler and Kevin James botched an attempt at? Please no jokes about Sonic's quills poking Mario, I just ate.
  • Robotnik Vs. Mario: Moustache Grow-a-thon: You gotta admit, their facial hair is quite impressive! But who's is the baddest around? The two razor impared heavyweights go head to head in a knockdown drag-out grow-off!
  • Eco-friendly Kart Game: With concern for global warming and the heightened cost of gas, the usually-running anyways pair decided to ditch the gas powered carts and simply walk where they want to go. Ok, so perhaps this isn't such a fair matchup, and we all remember how bad Sonic-R was, so nevermind.
  • Sonic and Mario's Microsoft Sell-Out Race: Let's see who can be the first to sell out to Microsoft (a la Square Enix) for loads of cash money! (Hint: Sonic).

Recheck your credit card balance -- if you're close to the limit, now is the time to settle up. There are lots of ways to manage debt like shaking trees and selling the apples that fall out. If you didn't understand this piece of advice, it's because you don't play Animal Crossing, and therefore, are not a complete idiot. Congratulations.

Tony Hawk video games are the new Madden NFL

January 2, 2009 by myka

This issue has been bothering me for a few months now and I wanted to get it off my chest.

I still remember how amazing it was playing the original Tony Hawk Pro Skater for Dreamcast (yes, Dreamcast, get off my back, it was amazing.) and it absolutely blowing my mind. Finally a game that made you feel like you were in control of a real skater from the get go, but also with the potential for mind blowing stunts not possible in real life.

Guitar Hero: World Tour Song By Song Review

November 20, 2008 by myka

Well, the 4th edition of the Guitar Hero series is upon us and it's rife with already done hackneyed game functions stolen from Rockband, but hey, it's got cymbals!
I'm not going to bore you with my opinion of how much the sensitivity levels of the drums suck, or how awesome it is that you can trick your girlfriend into playing a video game with you. You can read that shit on some other website that actually cares if you're informed. Micah and KT are here to enterain and, of course, educate!
