Well, it’s been a while since I’ve posted a game, but this one was too good not to share!
Alright, alright… I know the description sounds terrible. But just look at that cute little blobby looking fellow! How could you not want to play this game? Tell you what, instead of thinking that you are playing with vomit, how about just thinking about it like it was jell-o?!? You are just kind of sucking the jell-o in and spitting it out. Pay no attention to the fact that you are using your “jello” as a propulsion system at times, or a swimming pool at others!
You’re born into this world a guinea pig before god. Unsure of his motives you progress through life solving his puzzles searching for meaning in the rudimentary problems of everyday life.
To make sense of life we must evolve past our previous forms, purge from our bodies the rules set in place by our previous selves in order to see the future with new eyes….
In other words Spewer is a game about puking.

Every once in a while I come across a video that you just know took a lot of time to actually set up and produce, like all those Rube Goldeberg videos I post all the time. Well, here is another one along the same lines.
These guys in Japan took what looks to be a bunch of beer or wine bottles, and filled them with different amounts of fluid to create a different pitch when tapped. They then spaced them out properly, attached a couple of mallets to a radio controlled car, and voila! You drive the car between the bottles and get the theme song from Super Mario Brothers!
Amazing.

I just found a great little game folks. The only problem with this one is that you have to download and install it. You can’t play it on the Web. Also, I believe it’s only for the PC. But having said that, the concept is quite fun. You’re a robot that was dropped off on Earth and you are wandering around for some reason. Only problem is, those pesky Earthlings don’t seem to enjoy your presence so they are shooting at you and dropping bombs on you and all sorts of fun stuff.
You have two primary sources of defense; you can kick things, and you can throw things. So I guess the goal is basically to stomp through town kicking and tossing the tanks, bombs, and obstacles out of the way. Here is a little video that shows you what you’re in for:

Ok. It’s been a little while since I posted a game, but here is one that I just can’t resist. If you happen to be a fan of the old Space Invaders video game, you’re really going to like this little gem. This modern interpretation of the arcade classic adds some nice features. Most notably, gravity!
Now when you shoot the alien ships, they fall out of the sky. They even pile up in your path! So, you can be surrounded by the carcasses of the aliens you destroy! Awesome!

Ok folks, I’m not sure if this is a joke or what. The Australian Herald Sun posted this Right Brain vs. Left Brain test which is nothing more than a picture of a lady spinning around.
THE Right Brain vs Left Brain test … do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?
If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.
Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.
They add the following interpretation:
LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception
knows object name
reality based
forms strategies
practical
safeRIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling
“big picture” oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can “get it” (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking
Frankly, I only see the lady turning clockwise. I find it very difficult to believe that ANYONE sees it turning counter-clockwise, much less most people! So please take a moment and leave a comment to let me know how you see it. If everyone sees clockwise I’m going to call this test a fraud…

Ok. Here is a question for you. Are the balls between the black squares in the image black, or white? Or maybe they are gray? Hmmm.

This is the continuation of the original Storm the House action game in which you defend your home from marauding attackers by any means necessary! The nice thing about this version is that it adds some new weapons and also seems to improve your ability to shoot the bad guys. But what really happened is they probably just made it a little easier.
Anyway, I’m warning you, if you start playing this game you’re going to be stuck with it for hours! It happened to me. In fact, I went on so long that I actually beat the game! If you look down below you’ll see screen shots of what’s in store for you if you manage to do it. Enjoy!

Thanks to a suggestion from Jim over on the Tanks, The Game page, I found Storm the House, which is another fantastically addictive little game.
The deal is, you are hunkered down in your cozy little bungalow as a bunch of armed bandits are trying to rape and pillage. It’s your job to shoot them before they get close enough to violate you.
Every time you clear a level, you are given some money and the ability to spend it on upgrades such as hiring gunmen to help you protect your hacienda, or perhaps even a nice little rocket launcher to unleash hell and carnage from the sky!
Enjoy!
Don’t forget, there are nearly 40 other games to waste your time here.

Folks, I was at Dave and Busters in Frisco, Texas and saw these two guys going to town on this dancing video game! I think it was called Dance, Dance, Revolution… but I could be wrong.
Anyway, just check out these two little clips I took with my crappy cell phone video camera. (Hey, they’re better than nothing!) My question is, how much money do you think you have to spend to get this good at dancing on a video game? And the follow up question is, do you think the chicks dig it?

It’s been one of those weeks folks, so I decided that we needed a new game around here and the Stress Relief Paintball game seemed like just the trick!
The premise of this game is that you fire paintballs at happy faces that appear all over your office. You’ve got to be fairly accurate and hit several of the smilies in order to move on to the next level. Just use your mouse to aim and fire!
Hint: You can reload your paint ball gun in the bottom right corner. So give it a try!
