[It has been awhile since I’ve posted a senseless, late-night video, so this one from our sister site Japanator will do fine.]
This video works on so many levels!

GamePro said yesterday that the SonyStyle online store’s supply of the 60GB model was listed as back ordered (though some have been shifted from retail stores to meet web demand), and now it […]

California-based emcee Murs knows what’s up — it’s time ya’ll recognize the fury that was Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! for the NES.
