Stick Trinity

Posted in Sweet Internet Games at 12:25 pm by earl

This is a pretty fun flash game where you play as a little stick man who, for no apparent reason, is going around killing stuff, but hey, I don’t think he needs a reason. You can choose between several characters throughout gameplay, and it all leads up to a pretty cool boss battle on each stage that you choose from without neccasarily having to beat them to get to the later ones. Click here to play.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

Posted in The Tube at 12:15 pm by earl

“Let me tell you a story all about how my life got flipped turned upside down now I’d like to take a minute just sit right there, I’ll tell you how I became prince of a town called Bel-Air…”. This is a really funny show. It’s basically Will Smith, a “brother” from Philly who comes to Bel-Air to live with his Uncle and family. You get the picture. Like I said this show is funny, most of the jokes coming from Jeffrey or directed toward Uncle Phil or Carlton. Although it can get inappropriate at times, overall it’s a pretty good show.

Game of the Week:May 27-June 2/Game of the Month-May 2007

Posted in Video Games at 8:20 am by earl

Since I am writing this on June 1, 2007, I will go ahead and name the Game of the Month for May, last month. This month had some good titles, but seemed to be overflowed with lackluster titles, some with good potential. In our first week we were blessed with Command and Conquer 3 for the 360, but we were also let down with the release of Driver 76.  The next week we got Resident Evil 4 for the PC, but we experienced the movie game curse once again with Shrek 3 the Game. We suffered this once again with the Pirates 3 game which followed in Shrek’s footsteps. But it seems as if it has all been made up this past week with the release of several great titles-Halo 2 (PC), Mortal Kombat:Armagedeon (Wii), and Shadowrun. But their was one title that blew away all the dissapointments, and its name is Forza Motorsport 2. May 2007’s Game of the Month. Forza once again delivered a great driving experience with deep customization, shiny cars, and shiny cars. I have also named this Game of the Week for this week.
