Actually, it’s Warcraft cosplay. Why not? They do it with anime. I’m not sure how long the video will remain up, but enjoy it while it’s there. But, can someone who knows the game tell me wtf is the checkered cube?

Will be out either tomorrow or wednesday. Gamestop says tomorrow and Best Buy’s website says Wednesday. I played one last Warlords Game and did pretty well. I think this was my third best score in the expansion pack. So you can download it and play this last turn and add it to your high score if you want something to beat or something to laugh at. Eric XI of the Chinese would be happy!

…is a lot of fun. I love pulverizing (and being pulverized) in the mini games.

Ok, ok….it’s not really by Square-Enix, but it IS an RPG of Columbine. It’s actually not as bad as your gut reaction might say. According to this review in wired, it’s actually a pretty thoughtful game meant to make you think about their motivations and frame of mind. Check out the link above there.

According to “Power Up: How Japanese Video Games Gave the World an Extra Life” (p17) Steve Jobs created Breakout! That’s right, that wonderfully addictive game, second only to Tetris for most, was created by the man who created Apple, NextStep, Pixar (via financing), and the iPod. Is there anything the black turtle-neck clad man hasn’t had his finger in?

Someone at MIT has used a Nintendo emulator to deconstruct Mario as you play it. You can see just what was going on in the Nintendo’s RAM as you played the game. It is a very neat hack and definitely worth checking out!

So, on Retrozone, you can buy adapters to plug in your old Nintendo controllers to your Wii. This is for use with the service Nintendo provides to allow you to play on your Wii nearly every Nintendo game that ever came out for any system. I’m extremely surprised that Nintendo didn’t see this coming! They are going to lose out on potential business! They should have released Wii versions of the old control. Sure, they had a “normal” control in addition to the Wii stick, that looks like a cross between a Gamecube and a Super Nintendo controller, but it’s not the same as playing your old games with the old controllers! I predict that the prices of old Nintendo controllers being sold on Ebay will rise.

I don’t have one, but I can pretend I do by reading this review. Makes me glad I didn’t get one. Sounds like they have a lot of issues to work through.

Just finished my first Warlords game and I won a domination victory with my highest score ever! 12108!! Got ranked as Charlemagne! Save file to uploaded in the future.

There is a new, war oriented opening movie that kicks butt! The opening screen no longer plays the happy Lion King-like theme, but a more ominous one. Instead of a nice happy world in the background to the main menu, we have an impatient looking warrior who likes to twirl his sword. Impressive!
