Pokemon done Call of Duty-style
Posted by John Kilhefner Categories: Culture, Internet, Nintendo,
I frequently ask myself the question, “what if Modern Warfare 2 was like Pokémon?”, and at last all quandaries have been put to rest courtesy of Blastedroof.com. The new gaming community has fused the two unlikely gaming franchises into what can only be described as utterly brilliant. Included in the seven minute video are some memorable internet personalities such as the British gamer who “played 7hrs straight”, the senior citizen bum from the bus fight video, a MW2 guru who makes video walkthroughs, and a nod to Infinity Ward’s own Robert Bowling. The video pokes fun at noobs, and different styles of play (rushing vs. camping) as well.

VIDEO: Faux Breaking Dawn Trailer
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Adaptation, Romance, Satire, Sequels, Trailers, Upcoming Releases, Videos,
Warning: Explicit language and spoilers!
Production on the film hasn’t started yet, but we’ve got a Breaking Dawn trailer just the same…after a fashion. The trailer uses the story line from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, the novel, to mock a few of the more ridiculous story elements which (we think) will be featured in the upcoming full-length movie.
If you haven’t read the books and don’t want to know the plot, don’t click!

Grounded: Superman’s Walking Tour Diary
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials, DC Comics,
Superman‘s been grounded. No he hasn’t been sent to his room without supper, but the Man of Steel is taking a walking tour of America. The year-long adventure, called “Grounded” began in Superman #700 but really picks up steam in #701. It’s written by J. Michael Straczynski and illustrated by Eddy Barrows. Supes will be using his cross-country hike to try to reconnect with the people of this great nation.
Naturally, he’s keeping a diary and we got our hands on some excerpts. Up, up and away…on foot.
Day 6
Batman called to laugh at me. Said even Terra-Man used a horse. Ha-ha. Prick.
Status: Facebooking an embarrassing panel of Bruce and Dick getting massages in old comic book.
Lunch: A&W’s Uncle Burger. Stupid name for a pretty good burger.
Day 9
Met another guy who wants to talk about the “brown skins.” I said he had me confused with Green Lantern. I don’t see skin color. I have enough trouble with Kryptonite’s colors. And don’t get me started on the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

VIDEO: Breaking Bad Turned into a Comedy
Not currently a fan of Breaking Bad? Think the AMC show about a chemistry teacher-turned-meth producer is a bit too dark for your taste? Can’t understand why Bryan Cranston keeps winning Emmy awards for playing a married father of two with lung cancer?
Well, how would you feel if the show was actually a comedy?
In this latest creation from FunnyorDie.com, the critically-acclaimed series - with a new theme song and laugh track - is edited to appear like an ABC sitcom. Like the result? Then you can view more “episodes” of the program here.

Friday Fun: 10 tell-tale signs you need to upgrade your computer
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Editorial, Features, PC / Laptop,
In this age of technology it seems that no sooner have you taken your brand spanking new machine out of its packaging than it is already defunct and obsolete thanks to a newer, sleeker, sexier model. However, there are some exceptionally old machines still out there and some exceptionally stubborn users who still think that Windows 95 is the height of technological evolution.
So, this one is for the obstinate hoarder of old technologies. If you find yourself nodding along knowingly to any of the below, it’s time to treat yourself to a new machine.

Aquaman Saves The Gulf?!
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Editorials, DC Comics,
Aquaman! Welcome, your highness. Thanks for coming. Ted Belvedere, Department of Surf And Turf. Namor, that saltwater prick, didn’t even return my call. You want a shrimp cocktail before we start? I don’t think it’s anyone you know.
Can I call you Mr. Curry? Great. As you know there’s oil all over the Gulf of Mexico, thanks to BP’s “What Could Possibly Go Wrong?” emergency planning. Those gas-huffing boobs make Tea Party candidates look like Rhodes scholars. BP’s latest plan is to shove all the dead ducks into the pipe as a two-fer hail Mary: plug the hole and hide the damage. But the “Lucky Duck” won’t work any better than the Big Hat, the Wishful Thought or the Cork of Destiny.
We need a hero. A professional. We need the fashion-forward green-and-orange of the King Of What’ll Be Left Of The Seven Seas. That’s where you come in, Arthur.

Tired of Farmville? Strike back in tasteless style with FarmVillain
Posted by Finnian Durkan Categories: Internet,
Tired of constant Facebook Farmville updates from “friends”—yes, I just used air-quotes—that you haven’t talked to since pre-school? Well now you can strike back in classless style—yes, I also understand what an oxymoron is—with FarmVillain. There is no game to play here, just spiteful Facebook-bombing at its sarcastic best. Bury a dead hooker in your least-favorite friend’s lawn. Claim 10 illegal-immigrants on your neighbor’s wall. You can even choose to “add a whole lot more cowbell to your farm”. I don’t even know what that means and I want to do it. Fight back with FarmVillain.

How to win at ChatRoulette: Use a piano!
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Internet, Music, Videos,
Okay, so ChatRoulette is all the rage right now (although, admittedly, I have yet to give it a try,) and we think we found someone that you’ll want to be on the lookout for when you are randomly talking to um, random, individuals. If you come across Merton, the improvising piano player, give him a moment. Hit up the video above to see why. He definitely had us laughing with some of his classic lines.
VIDEO: Jack Bauer Interrogates Santa Claus
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Videos,
What would happen if Santa was ever interrogated for “delivering packages”?
Well - that person would find himself being placed on Old St. Nick’s “Naughty” list—and that’s not something anyone, even 24‘s Jack Bauer, wants to hear.
