Ever wondered what an Atari 2600 looks like inside? Well, the team over at ifixit were curious enough to go ahead and tear one apart, you know, just for kicks. In a step-by-step description of the process, the guys discovered that for its size, the Atari 2600 didn't really have a whole lot going on inside of it. They also discovered: Read More

Now if only more games came with warnings like this one - I wonder how many gamers would still play them? I particularly like the sentence where it says "This game plays you as much as you play it". It kinda reminds me of that classic movie WarGames which brought new meaning to being 'pwnd' by a game.

If you haven't seen Silent Hill or played the games, you probably won't get the meaning behind this image. And if you haven't played Silent Hill yet, I highly recommend you do - it's just one of those classic survival horrors that you kinda have to experience at least once. The movie is equally as good - creepy and scary as hell. Just about right I'd say!

Bitmob's Top 10 Most-Wanted Red Dead Redemption DLC Characters offers some (fake) alternatives to the burgeoning list of famous Wild West outlaws fans have suggested for future DLC like Jeremiah Johnson, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Grizzly Adams, Wild Bill Hickok, etc.

This list has cowboys that matter like Brisco County Jr., Doc Brown (from Back to the Future 3), Woody from Toy Story and The Stranger from The Big Lebowski (dude!). Here's a taste of The Stranger (not the one when your hand falls asleep): Read More

Finding the time to game can be a difficult task for some, especially parents with newborns. This Daddy gamer however, has no such issues because he can game AND feed the baby! Now that's multi-tasking!

An artist's impression of how Mario would look in the Victorian Age - "Sheduled to release in 1985". I have to say Mario seems to age pretty damn well.

The latest Predator movie 'Predators' released not so long ago and I have to say, I enjoyed it. And I really enjoyed the games as well - especially the trophy-taking sequences that received so much media attention for being too violent. So just in-case you ever encounter a Predator out there in the wild - this guide has you covered, although you might want to just skip all the steps except the last one ;)

This has got to be one of the best StarCraft Cosplay's I've seen with the city of Moscow as a backdrop. Check out the detail in that suit - just amazing!

If you haven't had a chance to check out Limbo from the XBL Marketplace, you might not get the humor in this image right away. But I've spent a few hours playing Limbo and can totally relate to this - the water in the game is a damn nuisance sometimes. The guys from Virtual Shackles obviously understand this and wanted to do something about it - in their own unique way!

This gaming fan decided to recreate the Mortal Kombat fatalities using nothing more than a bit of animated video and paper! Another awesome find from the world of gaming.

Some of the artwork based on video games is incredible. If there's one thing I remember from Bioshock, it would have to be that the visuals in the game were some of the best I'd seen and this piece of artwork definitely captures that.

This video clip featuring the Team Fortress 2 medic singing to Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy" is very cool. You'll never look at the medic in TF2 quite the same way again. Brilliant!

An inventive way to announce a wedding combining two very different hobbies - gaming (in particular, Streetfigther) and cross stitch!

This kinda sums up days when all you wanna do is pwn... yep, even female gamers get that urge (and more often than you'd probably expect) :) Now this is a t-shirt design I'd certainly wear.

I've seen quite a few fan-made video clips featuring storylines taken from popular games and I have to admit, some of them are damn cool. This God of War parody comes from video game blog Gamer Vision. The website has featured various parodies before but this is the first one I've seen.

The website details the full cast and crew involved in the project but here's a snippet of the synopsis for you: Read More

I guess this is one for all the cheaters out there! Another cool gaming t-shirt design from Threadless with a stone-cold message!

This image features beards that belong to popular video game characters. If you think you know your games, can you guess which beards belong to which character in this 'Video Game Beard Quiz?'

This one is for all the ladies out there dating gamers (and particularly those thinking of tying the knot). If you ever wanted to get your message across to your other half but couldn't quite find the words - why not leave it to the Wedding Cake design? Brilliant!

Gaming fans keep coming up with the most unique and fantastic ways to show their appreciation for video games. This video features some of the world's most loved video games - Pac Man, Tetris, Pong etc all displayed using candles and some awesome camera work. From the website:

All I can say is ..this took over 2 weeks to do. A lot of fire, A lot of smoke, a lot of heat, and a whole lot of frustration.

All the hard work really paid off because this is awesome!

Thanks to Pete for the link :)

I'm guessing this little cutie's parents are really into their video games - either that or they like dressing up alot. Streetfighter FTW!

Something tells me that they won't be releasing this shade of lipstick anywhere other than your local Comic con maybe?

This awesome video clip from College Humor kinda says it all: "If at first you don't succeed - lower the difficulty setting". There's a certain satisfaction in knowing that no matter how bad your day has been, there's always easy mode :)

Another great t-shirt design from Threadless - Alien Autopsy.

Yup, we keep finding the images that show just how far people are prepared to go for their favorite thing. Here's a brave group of individuals doing their cosplay thing for their love of Streetfighter. I guess there's a difference between liking a game and being totally devoted to it... speaking of which, if you've got any similar pics stored on hard drives somewhere, don't be shy ;)

When it comes to video games and real life responsibilities, it's good to know that the characters in Dueling Analogs' web comic have their priorities straight!

This picture was taken by a Reddit reader who couldn't believe his eyes when he spotted some random dude sitting in front of his small TV playing on his Xbox 360. Now, I've heard of desperate measures for desperate times but seriously, Starbucks?!? I'm really surprised the guy didn't get told to leave by the Starbucks staff. What is the policy on this sort of thing anyway? And the title for this post was right to the point - DON'T let this become a trend in your Starbucks...

We recently posted an article about Playboy's mention in the upcoming sequel to Dead Rising. Here's a funny take on how that game content could even manage to distract the zombies by the peeps over at Action Trip. I think it sums things up quite nicely ;)

If there's one thing I try to remember when I come across stuff like this it's that nothing is out of the ordinary when it comes to people and their love for game culture. 

The description from the website:

This Gameboy is exactly 5'4'' and is exaclty to scale to a real gameboy! great for any gameroom and hardcore gamer

button are pushable and power button slides up and down along with volume button that rotates. The whole thing is ENTIELY cardboard!

Even the world of Cross-stitch is untouched by video game culture. This nifty little image was cross-stitched for someone's Dad as a Father's day pressie. If your parents are gamers - something like this would totally rule!

There are so many free games out there, it would be a crying shame not to write about them. In particular, some of the weirder WTF games like this one from BadHed and Gimme5games.

The object of the game is pretty simple - as the title suggests, you must make as many scans of your butt on the photocopier as you can before getting caught and fired. The game instructs you to avoid sober work mates but drunk work mates are OK.

If you're like me and don't care how many times curiosity killed the cat, you can check the game out for yourself right here. And I have to admit, finding this game was definitely a 'WTF' moment indeed...

My record is 9 scans lol! Think you can beat it? Go ahead, you might even get your name on the scoreboard :)
