The Best Damn Mouse Pads in History. Mousewhats?
Apparently people do still use mouse pads, even in 2011. While most are more and more switching to trackpads on their laptop and laser and optical mice so good that they even work on glass, certainly no-lifers gamers love their super speedy and glidery [sic] mousepads.
Debatably it is certainly to those that Etsy seller DesignNoy appeals with its collection of retro video games mouse pads.

It’s Like Crack in a Post-Tetris Era
Not that I know what crack tastes like or does to one other than thinking that Ozzie Osbourne would be the person who has invented crack, just by mixing drugs together on one of his many regular evenings in front of the burning fire place.
I do know do how many hours of life Tetris has taken and if this era weren’t known for being a 5 minutes, what’s the next big thing now this would be the nemesis of Desktop Tower Defence or Plants vs. Zombies for those who love pwetty colours.

If you have 5 minutes to waste, don’t go here because soon you’ll be saying ‘Damn, I was only go to play this for 5′!
I warned you.
Guitar Hero House
Ok, ok… I’m slow with this one and could have posted it before everyone had already seen it but hey… boy’s gotta do what they have to do or?
Or something like that or watch the newest Big Bang Theory episode. Gosh, I am more and more starting to like Penny. Perfect typecasting.
Anyway. So yeah. Ric Turner just did it. No he wasn’t being a Tiger! In the Northern American craze and hype of over-decorating your houe for the festive period, he gave it a spin. Holiday lightning around the house? Sure, why not he thought, but at least be original.
What did he come up with?
The Guitar Hero House.
And the thing is fully functional. I want to see a video of the whole street playing Rock Band!
Nerd of the Week without doubt.
Arcade Expressionism Paintings
Three creative paintings by Brock Davis. I guess everyone remembers these games, ya all that old already, aren’t you?

Kasabian Football Hero
Kasabian plays : Guitar Hero Football. If it weren’t Kasabian I might have found it awesome. Now… bonus point for coolness but big no for music. Oh give me a break, fans!
Donkey Kong vs. Mortal Kombat
When I saw the title of this on tintarwebz I was kinda excited about the video. Disappointment couldn’t have bigger because this is probably the most boring and underwhelming video mashup I have seen but somehow it still got 100s 1000s of views on the Tube.
