“Look What You Did to Friday the 13th!”

Gather ’round the campfire, and listen to the legend of 8-bit Jason Voorhees. Is it truly the terror it is made out to be, or is there a happy ending to this horror story?

Posted on April 1, 2018 by Cassidy

“There Are No Venetian Blinds in Venice.”

The true story behind a programmer’s joke, which we’ve all been re-telling wrong for the better part of twenty years. It’s time for us to raise the curtain — or should I say, blinds?

As the resurrection of the Undying Dragon has come upon us, we take a look at what is possibly the most-maligned shooter of all time. Did it truly deserve damnation, or does it demonstrate an indomitable spirit?

“Oh Ikki, What a Pity, You Don’t Understand.”

We travel back to feudal Japan in search of what is considered to be the world’s first kusogē. Needess to say, we don’t find much there, so we fast-forward a bit to 1985 instead.

“Girls Gone Guy Game (Going Gonzo).”
