Number 2 in a series of the worst kids games

Apparently the purpose of this game is to prevent the other children from accessing the blocks to build their own castles, towers, etc. You win when none of your friends are able to build anything. The win is bittersweet however, since you typically don’t get a chance to build anything either since you spent all your time blocking your friends.

Get a grip and Frag those Mother Scratchers!

Holy shit, I just came across this on the Times website. I’ve always been a fan of gaming (of course) but especially anything that immersed you more into the game. My absolute FAVORITE was at Jillian’s in New York. It was a Mech game in which you (and 5 other friends) climb into pods as if you are actually the pilots of the Mech. It was a completely immersive experience with small TV screens with different views, booming sound effects and force feedback. Insane.

Well, THIS thing looks to bring a whole new experience to home gaming. Take a look at the video below:

If anyone has direct experience with this thing, let us know! Not sure how much it costs, since I don’t think it’s available in the US yet… but can you really put a price on fun?

I am honestly thinking about buying this for myself. No Zombie-Ready invidiual should be without this above their head.

I always admire the ability of some folks to take the sweet memories of youth, and meld them into something twisted.

Exhibit A: The Lego Electric Chair. Some more pics and even a little Flash piece here. Wonder if its compatible with Lego Jar Jar Binks… cause we all know he’d be the first one strapped in.

Count your days buddy, cause they’re numbered.
