Five-minute Mario a world record? Yes and no

Apr 23rd 2007 11:30PM (Joystiq)
Oh man, I was wrong about that. That was actually done on purpose! I overlooked the fact that if he got 243, he would have had to deal with 3 fireworks. Stupid me. :/

Five-minute Mario a world record? Yes and no

Apr 23rd 2007 11:20PM (Joystiq)
In the top video, world 8-3, the guy made a very slight mistake that cost him maybe a second and a half. (Really, I know it's absurd, but in speed runs every second counts, right?)
At 4:12/13, right before the flagpole, he walks directly into the block that holds the flagpole causing him to lose some time. Nothing /major/, but definitely something to be noted. Had he not run into the bottom of the flagpole, he would have netted 243 (the real perfect time on 8-3) instead of his 242.
So, in essence, it's not really a perfect run. :D

Zune zooms straight past gaming?

Ugh.. Zune? That's not appealing at all.
Or at least make it "Xune", as Charlie said.
Then again, that's what I said about the Wii's name.. And I'm well over with that.
Oh well, probably not going to buy this anyway. I've already got an iPod Video, PSP, and DS, what more do I honestly need? Too late to make a name, in my opinion. iPod is already a household name, I don't know if "Zune" is going to get the attention from the mainstream that Microsoft wants so bad.

Violent games are gateway to gateway drugs, study claims

Apr 10th 2006 1:08PM (Joystiq)
Funny, I've been playing violent games just about all my life and I've never gotten into a fight and have sworn to myself I wouldn't drink, smoke, or do drugs.
What else are they gonna blame on videogames?
