Some of you old codgers might remember a tiny startup called ATARI. They have launched a shiny new site with a handful of absolutely free arcade classics and atari 2600 titles. What really blows my mind is that I had to link-hop three times to find an actual link to the Atari website. I’m pretty sure that this kind of stinginess is bad for your health, and if there was a way for doctors to check for it, then life insurance rates would shoot through the roof for these guys… I’m not going to name name, but shame on you for not linking to Atari while waxing poetic about how excited you are to be playing their games for free on their site.
Can I get a What-What for Kotaku, who actually linked back to the Atari website.
Here’s a little bit of awesome: stop motion re-enactments of classic arcade games using LEGO blocks. The shape of LEGOS lend themselves perfectly to the pixelated images of old school arcade games. These recreations are so good that I think I just 1up’D in my pants a little.
On a side note, I’d like to know what kind of diet supplement pac-man is taking, because he can gobble pellets all day long and he never gains a pixel. Also, with all of the different versions of pac-man out there, I’d like to know why there was never a game that featured both ms pac man and pac man in the same game? Someone needs to whip up a co-operative game with these two as a team.
It seems that most Wii accessories are just silly add-ons for your wiimote, and they don’t look like they would help you play better or enhance the games in any way. Despite the tons of crazy-bad reviews that I’ve seen for this particular accessory, I’d like to think that it could actually help you play wii bowling better. Now if only you could roll it along the floor when you played.
I'm crazy about technology... literally! Here at Pixel-Shack, you'll read about hot tech trends, zany gadgets, sweet rides and the occasional video game related tidbit.
