I’m in Love With the PAKO
While I never bought into the Flappy Bird hype, I totally get the appeal of infuriatingly brief casual games. So I decided to try out PAKO after finding it over the weekend. The TL;DW (too long; didn’t watch) of the video above is this: Pick a closed, arena-style level. Don’t crash. Avoid cops. Even though I haven’t…

Incidentals
Sweet! Cabel Sasser finally released the long-awaited soundtrack for The Incident! And it’s got a ton of bonus material to boot! So go grab it! Or else I’ll keep using exclamation points to end every sentence! FOREVER!

NESception
I totally love how this enterprising Instructables user crammed an entire NES console inside of a Super Mario Bros. cartridge!

Gauge
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPcqx06zsds?rel=0] I’m really happy that Venus Patrol tipped me off to Gauge [iOS].

I’m Not Even Supposed To Be Here Today
I don’t even like first person shooters all that much — but when I swung by the office to drop off my weekly groceries, I ended up getting roped into a LAN game of Quake 3. Despite the fact that I totally suck at first person shooters, I have to admit that it was actually…

Man, I love the DS homebrew community…

Friend Coding
You know what I’d like to see? A site where you can select the DS games you own and enter your friend codes. Of course, sites like this already exist — so I’d like to take it a couple steps further… A simple social networking aspect would be nice. I’m imagining notifications when an acquaintance…
