That's right, now you and up to 3 other players can link up over the net and smash down the opposing evils that stole your girlfriends. Castle Crashers will hit XBLA during the 1st quarter of 2k7. Alien Hominid is also expected to be released for XBLA around the same time. Check out the trailer below and prepare yourself for the most intense 2D action you've ever expereinced.

Nintendonline

Ever felt like some hot 8-bit action, but didn't want to mess with the hassle of digging up the ol' NES, dusting her off, hooking her up, and then hoping that the cartridge will read? Well, now thanks to Nintendo Online you can play all of your favorite NES titles via interweb.flash. The controls are simple, arrow keys = d-pad, A = A, Z = B, Ctrl = Select, and Enter = Start. I'm not just talking some of your classics either. I'm talking about a list longer than your mother, assuming that she's really REALLY long. Do up some Zelda, Smash T.V., Base Wars, Rad Racer, Raid on Bungeling Bay, or even River City Ransom. You'll find it all at Nintendo Online.

For our first WW I'm going to give you the lowdown on Revision3. As you may have noticed I have Revision3 listed under Links/Television on the right hand side. It's that good.

So what is Revision3? Well, Rev3 is an internet TV network. They boast a handful of regularly created TV shows for the tech-savvy, sarcastic, witty, edgy niche (essentially, anyone between 17 and 27). All of their shows are available for download via internet or bittorrent. Revision3 was founded by Jay Adelson, Kevin Rose, David Prager, Dan Huard, and Ron Gorodetzky. Many of which have worked previously on TechTV/G4TV or digg.com. Rev3 has recently acquired investment funds, and has upgraded their website layout, their download options, and their number of shows.

Freedom!

Many moons ago I posted about this video gem and I thought since Halloweenie is approaching it would be appropriate to share it with the E204ers.

Blame Society Productions made this video about the true life of a Jack-O-Lantern.

Where Do You Stand With Your Neighbors?

How much are you paying for rent? Are you paying more than your neighbors? Are you paying less than your neighbors?

Well with the Rentometer by iiProperty you can find out. Just enter in your address, how much you pay for rent and a description of the building and then click the Analyze my Property button. A google map with neighboring rates will pop up and you can size up the rates near you.

Pretty fun, except there isn't much information about Springfield on there yet.

Just Stick It In. Don't Play With It.

Test your drunkability with this nifty flash game, Promillelukko. Here's the setup: adjust the scrollbar on the left to change your blood alcohol content, or start from 0 and work you're way up. Then just try to put the key in the keyhole. Can you do it? It took me three minutes to find the keyhole when I was simul-drunk @ 2.0%.
