The Dark Side of the Olympics

Vice shows you the darker side to the Olympics. It's really deep and sad.  Of late the Olympics have really been nothing but a burden to the host cities after they leave, case in point Beijing and Athens.

I'm not much of a Polo guy but Ralph's other branches Rugby and Denim and Supply are way better to me then the average Polo gear.


Levi's is a classic brand. This new Commuter line looks nice.


Eredan iTCG is an online Card Game that I have been playing since October. It's like Yu-Gi-Oh but better. The Chat room on Kongregate's site makes it way more fun .

Top Ten Arcade Games

Being a huge fan of Marvel Comics and Capcom characters, this game was a big deal for me. IceMan Vs. Ryu, Gambit vs. Wolverine! This was a well thought out game, if only we could get Marvel Vs. DC!!!!

I actually won a video game contest at the Fair Grounds when I was in Middle School and Mortal Kombat 2 was one of the games. We had to fight Reptile in the Pit and win. I won. This was such an upgrade from the classic 1st Mortal Kombat and it still kept the things that made it great. Arcades were going crazy over this jont!

X-Men the Arcade Game was a PROBLEM. My mother could leave me in the arcade for hours and if I ran out of quarters I was fine just watching other people play. They had cool characters to choose and very weird random ones too (Dazzler??? why???). The enemies and boss battles were well chosen, and it actually felt like it went with the comic books as opposed to the X-Men Movies that bore the hell out of me.

Revolution X was a great shooter. Before that Area 51 game this was the quarter consumer. It had AeroSmith in it for crying out loud, and if you can't get with that you need to "Walk This Way."

Cruis'N USA was at the time the best racer out! Great levels, Great cars!

Street Fighter II Tournament Edition was crazy. You could finally pick Vega, Sagat and Bison. Plus, the game play was faster and allowed for more ass kickings to be delivered.

Spider-Man The Arcade Game was GREAT, but I'm not sure many remember it or that it was around long. Spider-Man, Black Cat, HawkEye and Namor The SubMarnier (why???) fought some weird faceless guys and a giant Venom for endless rounds. I've never beaten this game nor have I seen the end but I was very entertaining.

Ms. Pac-Man was another endless game. Me and my Pop used to play this on Sunday. It's a simple game about a fat chick who is never satisfied. The ghosts represent the demons that haunt her that make her eat. Sad really.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 was just about the greatest game at the time in the world! Foot Soldiers, Shredder, Bebop and Rock Steady!!! It was way better than the 1st TMNT game. It was DEEP! Ninja Rap!

Pop used to take us to Fairlanes Bowling on RT 40 on Sundays and this game was a must play before we left. The Simpsons Game was crazy! Cursing and hitting people with skateboards and vacuum cleaners. It was mayhem at it's best!

My Friend Jim

Last week during "Game Week," I posted about Kongregate.com. So the CEO of Kongregate, Jim Greer checked it out and commented on the blog, my myspace and digs the music, and I thought that was very cool of him. We are officially friends.

Thus Ending Game Week

The Best game site (to me) is Kongregate.com. It has thousands of games, has a game of the week feature every week, lets you earn badges and points, and has an online card game (whenever it's finished). The game of the week features new badges and cards upon completion of certain tasks. It has online chat, shows the top scores of the game you are currently playing, lets you learn about new games and gives you incentive to play old games to receive the badges and points.

Play On Playa!

King.com is good for old people who wanna play games. The games are ok...the usual stuff you see, but they offer rewards like online chat and create an avatar for collecting stars from the games...pretty lame I know.

Mini-Clip.com is a great site that offers many genres of games in a wide variety. All of their games are pretty good and they don;t have many crappy flash games like some sites...their games are pretty high quality and it is easy to maneuver on the site.

Armorgames.com is a good site too, you just have to weed out all the lame games and find the ones worth playing.

Retro!!

Nintendo 8 lets you play NES games with ease. They have a wide variety of original Nintendo titles and are easily playable with the "Z" and "X" buttons and the arrow keys. The only real downside is that you end up playing the game backward because the controls are switched, but its still a good time had.

Everyvideogame.com is just about the same deal, though its a bit more tedious to navigate through the site. They have many old Nintendo titles and the controls are just about the same as
Nintendo 8's.
