I don’t even have words for the sheer awesomeness of this thing. Doctor Octoroc has been converting Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along-Blog into oldschool 8-bit orgasms. (Side note: If you don’t know what Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog is, get the fuck off my website.)


Check out Act 1 and 2 below, or hit Doctor Octoroc’s website to watch the whole thing in 8-bit glory. And don’t forget to download the soundtrack for free here.

Act 1

Act 2, Part 1

Act 2, Part 2

Doctor Octoroc is simply incredible. I want to have his 8-bit babies.

Sorry I’m late with this one – it was all over the nerd blogs a few weeks ago, but it’s just too amazing to leave out. You thought Tokyo had problems, what with the littany of monsters that continuously attack? Check out what happens when New York is invaded by 8-bit creatures.

Patrick Jean transports us to a New York City where a giant pixelated Donkey Kong hurls 8-bit barrels down on the city. I want to live in this New York City. If I’m going to die, I want to be from gigantic space invaders. With my luck, I’ll get killed by someone throwing a penny off the Empire State Building.

Make sure you hit the YouTube link to experience it in fullsize HD.

This isn’t new, but it’s amazing, and my goal for this site was to keep a repository of my favorite things online, and this damn sure qualifies. So, fuck you, haters.

YouTuber (and apparently ex-employee of Blizzard, based on his comments) Perculacraft put together this incredible scene with the kind of fight moves that gives WoW nerds like me nocturnal emissions. Checkit:

Play it all the way to the end to see a quick trailer that’s really fun, too.

Alas, according to Percula’s comments on the video, he won’t be doing any more WoW videos. In fact, it looks like The Craft of War: Blind was the only video he’s posted, which makes me a sad Pandaren. Either way, epic work. For the horde, bitches!

If you ever thought you’ve done anything talented, awesome or cool, trust me – it’s utter crap compared to the unimaginable awesomeness of this guy’s Bioshock chainsaw wood carving.

Seriously – just kill yourself now because you’re never going to do anything that even comes close to a guy in a hockey mask creating Big Daddy out of a giant piece of wood using only chainsaws and a torch.

Check out the vide below to see how it’s done. No tricks, no bullshit.

I mean, seriously. Creepy hockey mask – check. Chainsaw – check. Bioshock – check. The only thing that could possibly make this cooler is if dinosaurs and bacon were somehow involved.

Ever want to walk down memory lane and think about all the tail you didn’t get because you were a video-game obsessed nerd? Now you can.

Consollection is a collection of images and data on most of the gaming consoles available over the past 30 years, and I know for a fact that I’ve spent waaay more time with that kind of joystick than I have with the real deal.

If you can remember playing any from the top row, you’re older and sadder than me. Fortunately, I am small and petty enough to feel really good about that, so carry on.
