• 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.

  • At the all-star break, my 10 candidates for the MVP.
  • This list has nothing to do with results or current league positions, just the atmosphere, look and feel of each ground in English football.
  • 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?

  • Maybe the greatest possible list that you could make. There could be a million guys on this list even some who nobody knows about because they never made it in the NBA.

  • Top 10 PC First-Person Shooters
    by MattWillard
    First-person shooters first became popular on the PC, so it's no surprise that the best first-person shooters ever made can be accessed from the hard drive. Hopefully, when that hard drive gets infected with viruses, Norton will make anti-virus software that lets you blast them with a rocket launcher. Until that fateful day comes to pass, here are the top 10 first-person shooters for the PC, in no real order. Sure, some of them are also available on the consoles, but we all know that a mouse is far better suited for your trigger finger than a stupid controller. Reaction time ftw!

    by DaveHoward
    So you want to take part in the non-sanctioned office NCAA March Madness Bracket pool, but you don't know anything about it?

In fact, the more knowledge you have can actually be a hindrance. Here are the basics to give yourself a respectable appearance to the VP with his office painted Kentucky Blue. Oh and there are pictures of college cheerleaders.

  • Michael Jackson's Arcade Games at Neverland
    by Reference List
    Michael Jackson’s arcade game collection was one of the best. It's Michael Jackson's Gameroom, after all. This is a full list of the console video games at Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch as of early 2009. Michael Jackson’s pinball machines were also some of the better ones made. This list was exhibited as part of the Neverland bankruptcy auction filings in April 2009. It includes some elements that aren't "arcade games" per se (slot machines, etc). Odds are this particular arcade didn't have that familiar situation where half their games had an "out of order" sign or broken flipper.
  • Useful Recession-Proof Skills UCSB Gave Me (drinking games)
    by mollie
    This is a list of the best drinking games known to mankind. What makes me an authority on drinking games? Well, I went to UCSB, also known as "U Can Study Buzzed." Not that I did. But, if I had, I might have played some of these games to warm up for a long all-nighter. Hypothetically speaking, of course. Why are they recession proof? Two reasons.

    #1: If you're willing to suck it down fast enough, beer never has to cost more than a few bucks.

    #2: These games are just as much fun for blowing off the stress of a long day at work as they are for blowing off the stress of a long day looking for work. They're the ultimate creator of common ground between 20-somethings with jobs to complain about and our 20-something friends complaining about not having jobs. Also, they're fun. And in times like these, who doesn't need a little fun?
