Mega64 takes on Assassin’s Creed. Rocco runs around acting as Altair would in the game and harasses unsuspecting victims. Pretty good skit, but just a little too short.
Snake?! SNAKE?! SNNAAKKKEEE continues the Destructainment right after the jump with the PS3 MGS 4 install process. Then, Busta Rhymes busts out a Portal reference. Next up, Bill […]

"I have huge respect for those who, like me, share a common passion for Nintendo and want to make it clear that […]
