One of the worst games ever - E.T. for the Atari 2600


This game was bad. Really, really bad. So bad that it bankrupted Atari. So bad that they bought up all the unsold copies and buried them in the New Mexico desert.

Now a new indie band has made a music video where they track down the buried cartridges. Watch the E.T. video.

Random Garfield

Garfield


Ok, since I’m no longer 8 years old, I don’t find Garfield funny. But this is hilarious. Someone has built a Random Garfield comic generator. They’ve cut up individual panels of old Garfield cartoons and then display 3 randomly. You can choose to save any or none of the three and hit the go button to randomize it again. Much better than the real comic!
