    BOOMSHAKALAKA! Is it the SHOES?! If you say those words with childlike glee, then you probably grew up getting your hands sticky on all the disgusting, germ-ridden joysticks of typical 90s arcades, wasting hours and quarters on classics like NBA Jam. When Midway was a giant video game studio, these players reigned supreme in one of the first truly cool extreme takes on sports. Pump up your Nike Airs, get a fade haircut, hum some Ace of Bass and check out the best duos of one of the greatest video games of all time. Barkley and Majerle FTMFW.

    In light of the upcoming basketball season, the anticipation of the World Series and the intense Sunday battles on the gridiron, I began to wonder… No, not how many wins my San Diego Chargers will win this year, or if the Yankees can win it all. The question I’m pondering about is… which players in these 3 professional sports are the most selfish?

    Now that Prop 8 has been repealed by federal courts, here are 7 probably gay video game "couples" whose sexualities have been in question for a while now (publishers are just too scared to admit it) that would benefit from partaking in the sanctity of marriage in some way shape or form.

    A whole slew of lists have been made about horrible video game endings, but most of those include games that aren't really worth playing to begin with. These are the worst endings to games that are 100% worth your time... until the end. This proves, once again, that for most games, the developers probably think about the ending LAST.

    From water levels, to ice levels, to "moving" levels, to escort missions, many games have fallen into designing levels/missions for us with the same kind of challenges and mechanics. From our 8-bit days, all the way to the most modern of games, we've retained a lot of level types and a lot of these types have retained what makes them so annoying. Here are the most annoying types of video game levels.

    Top 10 Hardest Video Game Boss Battles
    views:  32575
    The Boss Battle is the video game equivalent of an orgasm - climactic, exhausting and totally worth it... yet often hard to achieve/beat. Of course, not all boss battles are created equal. Some gaming-gasms are just better than others. These are the hardest ones with the best payoff. From Final Fantasy to God of War, to Diablo III these are the hardest (and most satisfying) boss battles to beat - at least in our opinion.

    A crossover is when one character from one storyline enters the storyline of another; be it from game to game, cartoon to game, movie to game, etc. Whatever the situation may be, they often come off as cheesy and like marketing ploys.

    Top 8 Pro-Athletes Convicted of Murder

    Being a sports star can be murder. It can apparently also drive you to commit murder. Here are the 8 most bloodthirsty pro-athletes who have been convicted of murder for reasons as silly as a traffic dispute all the way to murdering underworld crime bosses...which would be an awesome job title, minus the whole murder thing...It's kinda shocking that there were more than 8 murderous athletes, but I kept the list for now to the most interesting sports star killers. Pro athletes should have enough money to hire hit men if they must kill, you know? And if you are getting paid huge bucks to be a pro athlete, WTF are you so angry about anyhow? But these jocks aren't the brightest bulbs in professional athletics, as evidenced by their stories below. Be on the lookout for a sequel if this list of murderous athletes is a hit.
