Adventures in Game Hint Hotlines.

Counselor James Tang: Nintendo hotline—how can I help?
Caller: In Spyro, how many more fairies do I need to get to have 20 fairies?
Counselor: Well, um, how many fairies do you have now?
Caller: Sixteen.
Counselor: Sooo...there's 20 fairies and you only have 16, meaning you neeeeeed... [Pauses, hoping the caller will figure this out himself.]
Caller: I dunno. You tell me.
Counselor: ...
Caller: ...
Counselor: Four. The answer is four fairies.
Caller: Oh. [Click.]

Monkeycloth (aka Aero Fighters 2)

Been in a gaming mood, so I broke out the old Neo Geo games. Aero Fighters 2, a top-dowm scrolling 2D shooter, great fun and all, but what kind of crack were the creators smoking? I got to this guy, and I had to assume he was the last boss of the game, considering that he had nothing to do with anything at all at any other point in the entire game:

But I was wrong. Boy was I wrong, for the top half of a monkey flying cyborg that SHITS OTHER MONKEYS (really), was just phase one of the final battle, which culminates with a fight against...an evil tablecloth.

I love the japanese.

I SO Have to Buy a PS2.


I am really loving the PS2s push to release strange little Japanese games in the US. Who in the hell wouldn't want to play Taiko Drum Master? It's got BONGO CONTROLLERS for goodness sake!

A Little Lesson For New eBay Users.

When a guy with a "1" feedback rating (from someone who is no longer a registered user) is selling "80 playstation 2 new still in box" for $150, it's a scam. He will take your money and go to the bar, buying drinks for pretty ladies in the hopes of seeing them naked.

Also, don't pay $220 for a copy of Tomb Raider. That is stupid. You can get the damn game for a buck. Plus, you won't have enough money to go to the bar, and buy drinks for pretty ladies in the hopes of seeing them naked.

Best Tagline for Anything, Ever.

Silent Hill 4 - Home is definitely where the heart is. Along with some spleen. And a little chunk of liver in the hall.

I Am A Bad Person.

I can say without a shadow of a doubt, that this is the most offensive Flash game I've ever played. Yet I could not stop playing.

Mommy.

This is just part of the collection. Many more pics here. Don't know anything other than that. But that's probably a good thing, as I would constantly be breaking into his home.

Scooter meets Half-Life 2. Yikes.

If you don't know who Scooter is, it's OK. You're not missing much. Just watch this until you get about a minute in, as it starts a litttle slow. Very mildly NSFW.

Wikipedia entry for Scooter, if you're interested.

Bring Back "Ritzy."

I was looking at new screenshots for the Family Guy game, and one of the comments simply read "ritzy." Ritzy needs a comeback. Perfect for those who have grown tired of the meta Firefly "shiny."

OK, Now I Gotta Buy An Xbox 360. Dammit. Part 2.

click to mercilessly embiggen.

Burger King is releasing 3 four dollar games for the 360 (and original Xbox) before Christmas. From Kotaku:

"Sneak King" (Adventure) -- Only the King can turn an everyday act into an art form and now players can step into the King's royal shoes and use cunning stealth to sneak up behind unsuspecting people and bestow them with a delicious meal. The goal of Sneak King is to surprise hungry citizens with BURGER KING® sandwiches and other menu items throughout the day before they pass out from hunger. Whether in a logging yard, construction site, suburban neighborhood or downtown urban scene -- each rich with detail and hidden pathways -- players can hide out and earn points based on how elaborate the delivery is executed.

See the other two games, Pocket Bike Racer, and Big Bumpin', on Kotaku.

Personally, I'm just wondering when they'll release Hook Up With Brooke Burke Whilst Wearing A Plastic Mask.
