  • Download Free Games - For Money at Amazon.com!

    SEATTLE - Amazon has released a beta program allowing for game downloads. (You can find it here.)

    They feature all the favorite games you've been playing free online for years, except now you get to pay for them!

    Sure sure, theres also some nice discounted stuff in there if you dredge around a bit (like the 3 free games you can find by clicking here.), but for the most part it's a bunch of flash games turned to $10 downloads.

    Don't get me wrong, It works seamlessly as you'd expect from a gigantic behemoth of a website like Amazon, but for my $10 I'd rather download somethin from XBOX Live! or Wiiware.

  • Mario Kart Wii sells 8.94M in 2008; Huge Mushroom Kingdom Lawsuit Follows

    MY BASEMENT - It was reported today by Gamespot.com that Mario Kart Wii sold 8.94 Mllion copies in 2008. While a great debate could be waged over the success being a result of a finely crafted family game or if people just like to spin cheap pieces of plastic around like idiots, thats neither here nor there at the moment. The one thing for certain that everyone thinks about when they think "Mario Kart" is heated and bitter legal battles! More details after the jump.

  • Attempted robbery at Gamestop in Solon, OH ends with one casualty: Good Taste.

    CLEVELAND - The Plain Dealer reported that a Gamestop in Solon, OH was involved in an attempted robbery.

    It resulted in a standoff that eventually ended peacefully when the assailants were apprehended.

    No charges were pressed as the criminals were simply trying to steal only old copies of the Eragon movie game. Apparently they were vigilantes trying to prevent any future children from being subjected to the horror of accidentally getting it as a gift.

    One man's criminal is another man's hero.

  • 'Duck Hunt' Knock-off Removed From iPhone App Store: What's Next? 3 Others To Watch Out For

    Macworld reports that a game very similar to 'Duck Hunt' was removed from the iPhone app store due to copyright infringements.

    Thats the understatement of thee century, it's basically the exact same game except with no crappy lightgun to piss you off with infinite misses because you didn't calibrate it within 1 nanometer of the TV's corners.

    Other games expected to be pulled off the market are: (after the jump!)

  • Wii Punch-Out and the Wii Wish List: Duck Hunt, Contra, among others.

    Nintendo announced today that Punch-Out will be coming to the Wii early this year.

    This begs the question, what other super obvious ports is Nintendo finally gonna get off their ass and give us?

    WAKEUP NINTENDO, YOU'VE GOT MOTION SENSITIVE EQUIPMENT AND A SUPER ACCURATE LIGHT GUN TECHNOLOGY. USE THEM.

    Enough with Animal Crossing and crappy platformers. Let's see some lightsabers and classics brought back to life!

    Which games would you like to see updated on the Wii? Here is our list (after the jump!):

  • Games Gone Wrong: Killzone 2: Layoffs

    In a world where war runs rampant on foreign shores there is more to fear in your hometown than meets the eye......

    BEWARE THE ECONOMY.

    New from Sony, is the sequel to Killzone. Killzone 2: Layoffs.

    Players must survive harsh economic times and scrape together every penny in order to afford a second controller so you can play with a friend.

    Tackel the gut busting diet of nothing but $1 hamburgers and 2 for a buck Tacos from Jack In the Box. If you survive the night on the toilet, you'll find even more danger lurking around ever corner as you dodge former executives that are now homeless and after your spare change!

    Killzone: when the economy gets tough, the tough shop at 99 cent stores.
