Mario Slippers Let You Walk Like A Plumber

If you still find yourself walking like an Egyptian when you hear a dance-worthy song, it’s time to consider yourself being out of the times. Not that donning a pair of Mario slippers will make you any more hip (actually they’ll more than likely have the reverse effect). But damn, if they aren’t the coolest mushroom themed slippers ever. — ...

Rainbow Six PS3 Takes You For A Trip Down The Vegas Strip

What happens in Rainbow Six, stays in Rainbow Six, or at least Tom Clancy would have us believe. With decked halls of LEDs illuminating the Rainbow Six Vegas strip, the PS3 is cleverly disguised as a high rise casino.

Mario should move to Turkey

Take a trip to Akbuk Bay, Turkey and you might be surprised what you find. Scattered along the shore are cottages which strike flashback images in my head of the sleepless nights I spent devoting my life to saving Princess Peach from the Goombas.

Portable Dreamcast: Play Again

Recently we spotted a Portable Sega Genesis system, and now the ill-fated Dreamcast also has a portable system to take on-the-go. The Portable Dreamcast allows you to play any Dreamcast game, with the disk slipping right in the back of the device. Dreamcast was one of Sega’s systems which never quite took off like they expected, but still made a ...
