Bored?

Two brilliant ways to waste… oh, at least five or ten minutes.


Tetris Hell


Imperfect Balance

Tiny Castle

For all you gaming purists who bemoan the dearth of side-view puzzle/action games like Castlevania and Prince of Persia, here’s Tiny Castle, a fun little flash game that will eat far too much of your time if you let it.

Kiss the rest of your day goodbye…

Really?  Did the world really need first person Tetris?  Just the screenshots make me seasick, seriously.  Trufax, that’s the REAL reason I hated Titanic.  I’m so bad with motion.  /headdesk.

Tuper Tario Tros!

Here’s an awesome mash-up between the original Super Mario Bros and Tetris.  Tetris blocks drop to form terrain, and then you can play through the level!

This looks kinda awesome…

It’s obviously a gimmick, but if the game is as fun and cute as it seems like it should be, it could be really addicting anyway.  I kinda want one.

“Target Neutralized.”

So, Mint bought Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 today, and has been playing it for, what, six hours straight now?  The graphics are pretty impressive, everything’s sharp and bright and rather disturbingly hyper-real, and there seems to be an absurd number of multi-player maps.

The sound is a lot more compressed on this one than CoD: World at War, which basically means that it’s a low-level sort of racket instead of mostly quiet with occasional explosions…  It bothers the dogs less, though I admit I miss Gary Oldman’s terrible Russian accent.

LOL.  He just unlocked a new weapon slot, and was like, “Are these even real guns?”
This, from the kid who used to hunt squirrels with a semi-automatic.

That’s alright, I asked what the occasional horrible buzzing noise was, and he said it was an ultra-speed helicopter-mounted machine gun capable of firing thousands of rounds per minute, and that it probably sounded much worse in real life.

My response?  “Is that even possible?”  *facepalm*
