Video Game Facebook Status Updates

Ever wonder what it would be like to befriend some of the most famous video game characters on Facebook? Wonder no more! Who would’ve guessed that Tails is totally in love and obsessed with Sonic? Now when the Princess is kidnapped again, and again, and again, you’ll know! I just hope somebody helps Diddy Kong out of those barrels. Poor guy might suffocate.

Evolution of Controllers Before you continue, I mean no offense to controller creationists. You may continue believing all controllers were made by the intelligent design of the almighty cloud dweller. Not even the Power Glove or original Xbox “fat” controller should shake your faith…

I love the NES controller, I enjoy the Wiimote/Nunchuk combo, and I hold my Xbox 360 controller even when my 360 is turned off. That being said, I think my favorite controller of all time has to be the Nintendo Gamecube controller.

Sure, Gamecube wasn’t the best console ever, but it was decent, still is, and the controller is amazing. Aside from the fact that it works with the Wii, the design and feel of it are perfect. The handles, the big shoulder buttons, the yellow nub, the smooth joystick, the huge “A” button, and even the unnecessary, but reliable D-Pad. Hate on Gamecube all you want; just leave the controller out of it.

Let’s hear what your favorite controller is in the comments. Check out the full picture below…

More Angry Video Game Nerd…

Luigi has always been under appreciated. It’s so unfair. Without Luigi, they’d have to think up all new titles for Super Mario Bros. games. They even gave Mario an epic fireball special attack in Super Smash Bros Brawl, and stuck Luigi with some LCD trip dancing as a special attack. It’s ridiculous. Luigi deserves some respect dammit!

Inspired by a periodic table of cartoon characters, a blogger at I Heart Chaos decided to make one with video game characters. We can conclude that is was a success.

Here are three new gameplay videos of Madworld for the Nintendo Wii. This game is riding a lot of hype right now, and it’ll probably be a hit. It’s rare to see so much gore, or blood at all on the Wii. Yes, you do hear the voice of John DiMaggio; the man who plays the voices of Bender in Futurama, and Marcus Phoenix in Gears of War 1 & 2.

Madworld hits shelves in North America on March 10th; in Europe on March 20th. Continue reading to watch two more videos.
