To complete Krang’s body just keep your hands in ...

Some people expected that Starcraft II might have been an MMORPG similar to that of World of Warcraft. While that turned out to be false, YouTube user SkriK uses Starcraft II‘s Galaxy Map Editor to create a modification which allows the game to have a Final Fantasy-esque turn-based combat system.

Earthjustice encourages Foursquare users to check in at “Earthjustice Ad.” Every time ...

A long-held myth in the gaming community, Game Trailers has taken it upon themselves to prove that jumping over the flagpole in the original Super Mario game is more than just legend. Their Pop-Fiction series proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that jumping over the flagpole is indeed possible, it’s just not very productive. If you were lucky enough ...

So, I’m just going to assume that the Disney Lion King’s Timon and Pumbaa were based off of this real life pair. Life is better that way. Well, you know what they say: “Hakuna Matata.” Ahhh, come on Pumbaa, not in front of the kids. Link

What’s a man gotta do to get in a game of Shower Hero around here? Do I literally have to buy myself Game Boy-shaped soap? Ok, now I’m just making up excuses. Etsy store Two Eggplants offers this surprisingly realistic Game Boy Soap, which offers a Tetris screen and a smooth Dulce de Leche scent. If you’re down for smelling ...

Sure, it might look like the normal Google that you’ve all come to know and love. But head over to the link and check it out for yourself. Then you’ll realize why Gravity Google makes such an awesome prank. Your friends will be all like, “WTF?” and you’ll be all like “HA HA.” And then they’ll be all like, “Look ...
