01.07.09The 9 Awesomest Things That Should’ve Happened This DecadeI completely agree with Topless Robot's article about the Awesomest Things That Should've Happened This Decade...why didn't these happen yet? Where are the teleportation systems and flying islands? Here's hoping 2009 makes up for the rest of the decade and provides with some real technological advances. Remember when the 2000s were a far-off time of flying motorbikes and lizard mutants? No? Well, do you at least remember when they were a momentous age that inspired hope, fear, and reflection? They inspired wild predictions about everything from computer bugs to the Biblical, beast-and-harlot apocalypse, and there were plenty of other reasons to ...

12.30.0820 Most Hilarious Super Mario Brothers ParodiesConsidering there are more Super Mario Bros. parodies than actual information on the Internet, I imagine it took RockTheList months of dedicated research to whittle the list down to 20. Furthermore, I never saw their number one pick until today--a creative classic to say the least. 20. Mario takes on Halo characters. Continue Reading...

12.17.08Cracked List: The 6 Most Politically-Incorrect Video Game MomentsI've enjoyed my fair share of inappropriate video games, as well as lists of inappropriate video games (any ones I've never heard of go on my wishlist). So when Cracked compiled a list of Politically-Incorrect Video Game Moments and I saw a bunch of titles I've never heard of before...well, now I know what I want for Christmas. Specifically, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. As much as we love Japan, they do seem to be about 30 years behind the rest of the world in the area of political correctness. And while it may be wrong to stereotype Japan in an ...

12.10.088-Bit Christmas CarolsDoctor Octoroc, purveyor of all that is video-game related, has released his very own holiday chip-tune recordings influenced by classic NES games. Case in point: "Joy to the World" remixed as "Joy to Commando".

12.03.08Cracked List: The 6 Most Retarded Gaming Consoles Ever ReleasedThis list has been a long time coming, and it took the team over at Cracked to do it right. Here are The 6 Most Retarded Gaming Consoles Ever Released. These are the forgotten systems that deserved to be forgotten. Unless the point was to laugh at them, which we shall do now. #6. Magnavox Odyssey 100 and 200 (1975) Most gamers remember Pong for getting the whole video game console party started back in 1975. Most do not know that Pong was stolen from an even earlier console, the Magnavox Odyssey (Pong was a ripoff of their Table Tennis game). Magnavox ...

11.26.08The 12 Lamest FatalitiesThere was a time when performing a fatality was an awesome reward where you further humiliated your defeated opponent by savagely mutilating them. But sometimes fatalities are just flat out lame. Here are our picks for the worst of the worst that span from the original Mortal Kombat to Ultra Vortek. #12: Lui Kang's Death by Arcade Machine Ok, Midway, you can make your jokes when it comes to Mortal Kombat. It's not exactly War and Peace, so we can chuckle when someone screams "Toasty!" after Scorpion sets fire to a dude. But meta-humor can only be taken so ...

11.19.08Bike Hero is BafflingI have no idea why unorthodox Guitar Hero videos are so big today, but this Bike Hero video is certainly worth your time. But was it worth the time it took for the kid who put this together, course and all? You be the judge. [Via UniqueDaily]
