Pitfall was a game you could play on your Atari or Amiga. It was great. 🙂

‘Strange, 28, was found dead inside her Astral Drive home in Rancho Cordova Friday afternoon. Her death came just hours after Strange participated in a radio station KDND 107.9 The End contest, testing contestants to drank as much water as they could without going to the bathroom.

The winner of the “Hold Your Wee for a Wii” contest would take home a new Nintendo Wii video game system.’

This is a little logic puzzle game, kinda cool. I got as far as level 10 before I decided I couldn’t be bothered. 🙂

This is a fun little IRC trivia channel where you can play trivia, funnily enough. 🙂

Link goes to the website. You’ll need an IRC client to play.

A fun little flash game.

‘I just happened to be standing in the line of fire, when my mother hit my uncles arm with the wiimote, which then caused her to throw the wiimote at mii as I was filming.’

This is a cool little game where you put lots of guns on a train and drive around shooting tanks and delivering cargo.

Fun. 🙂

This game is kinda interesting. Looks like it could get quite tricky.

‘On Monday, Graef visited CNET’s Second Life bureau for a discussion about her business, how best to set up businesses in Second Life and the nature of competition there.

Unfortunately, as the interview was commencing, the event was attacked by a “griefer,” someone intent on disrupting the proceedings. The griefer managed to assault the CNET theater for 15 minutes with–well, there’s no way to say this delicately–animated flying penises.’

`The Tigers are satisfied they won’t see a recurrence of the right wrist and forearm inflammation that sidelined Joel Zumaya for three games of the American League Championship Series.

Why? Club president and general manager Dave Dombrowski told WXYT-AM (1270) on Wednesday the team had concluded Zumaya’s injury resulted from playing a video game, not from his powerful throwing motion. [..]

Zumaya, 22, was known to play “Guitar Hero,” a PlayStation 2 game in which a player uses a guitar-shaped controller to simulate the performance of popular songs.’

`Were these people crazy?? Yes, they were. It only went downhill from there. While I was walking toward the exit, unsatisfied customers began to grab at my bag. Just like that! They were acting as if I was just going to give it to them. There was no way anyone was taking this away from me. I was caught off guard in a game of tug-a-war when a security guard intervened and rescued me from the chaos.

He took me outside. And the crowd followed.

The security guard flagged a police car. I thankfully jumped in. And it was a police escort for me and my Wii back to work.’

Another one of those very cool flash games from EyeMaze.

This claims to be version 1, but I’m fairly sure I haven’t seen it before.

This is a little click and shoot side scroller.

`The objective of Quad is to get the four blue blocks located at each corner to the center of the grid. Place pieces to form rows and columns, thus elminating the blocks. Blue blocks can’t be eliminated from the grid and any blocks that form a row or column with them won’t disappear. Completing rows and columns in between the blue blocks will cause them to shift towards the center.’

So, that new Nintendo Wii apparently comes with some wireless controlling device. Already many people have managed to throw their Wii controller through their television screen or house windows. And here’s some pictures of damage done. 🙂

e.g. `We were playing Wii and drinking at a friend’s house whose parents were out of town. My friend wanted to play. She is a shitty drunk. Only after one drink. Swung the controller in home run derby… lost grip. Strap broke. TV cracked. Remote still works…. I’m impressed.’

This fun little game will help kill a few moments.

This is a cool little web based game where you play a hobo who fights other hobos and goes to school to improve skills and all sorts of other things like that.

I’m charging around wielding a plastic spoon and protecting myself with a plastic bag.

Kinda fun, if you’re looking for some time to kill. 🙂

If you fail your dog won’t be gay enough to go out and party.

`It all started when I got out of my seat to go to the bathroom. I went to the bathroom, washed my hands, and returned to my seat. A little while later the two stewardesses on the flight crossed each other in the aisle. They had a quick conversation that I was in earshot of. [..]

So now I’m starting to realize that this is turning into a big problem. They offer their condolences, tell me that it’s unfortunate, and I take a seat. Okay. So far, not so bad. I return to my seat and spend the rest of the flight trying to act normal.

That is, right up until the pilot comes over the intercom.’

A flight simulator using maps from Google. I just blew up some cars in London. Fun. 🙂

‘It took long enough but someone finally has taken the video of the least patient kid ever and added subtitles. Here it is the much long overdue translation.’

`If you’re passing Go and want to collect $200, better bring a debit card.

A British version of the classic Monopoly board game released this week substitutes a Visa-imprinted debit card for the stacks of yellow, blue and purple play money long hoarded by children worldwide.

Cheating just got a little tougher.’

A cool little trivia game that is good for killing some spare time. I got to around 3000 points fairly easily before I got distracted by something else. 🙂
