That Royal Family just loves Nintendo. So much, in fact, that Prince William was challenged to a game of Wii Sports by an 18-year-old kid during an official visit. The best part? The prince won. Come on, kid, you're 18. You have nothing better to do than play Wii. What's the problem? I never thought I would be playing Wii on an official engagement.Translation: "Bloody right I beat you at Wii Tennis! Who wants some? Who's next? I'm going to be the king one day! Ha! What, are you crying?" Actually, it sounds like he was a pretty good sport about it and good natured, at that. During the game, he turned to the boy and said, "You know you are not allowed to beat me." What a guy. Sunday, May 4, 2008New "Ghostbusters: The Video Game" Screenshots!
Get him, Winston! Yes! New "Ghostbusters: The Video Game" screenshots here! I'm having a fit!Labels: ghostbusters, ps3 Thursday, May 1, 2008The Indie Rocker Guide to Video GamesSo you can go to Pitchforkmedia.com and look at the "Guest List" section and find this information, but I decided to compile it for you anyway. P4K's "Guest List" feature is where they sit down with the artist and ask them a specific set of questions: what's your favorite new band, what's your favorite old song, what's your favorite record store, radio station, etc. In essence, it's a way to get to know the people who make the music you love and, as a plus, you find more music this way. One of the questions on the survey is, "Favorite Video Game at the Moment." Here are some of my favorite artists and their favorite games. Del tha Funkee Homosapien: Super Smash Bros. Brawl Meric Long of The Dodos: Call of Duty 4 John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats: Super Mario Galaxy, Red Dead Revolver Joe Goddard of Hot Chip: Mario Party, Pro Evolution Soccer Jared Phillips of Times New Viking: Halo 3 (but otherwise apathetic) White Williams: Paper Boy Thurston Moore: Guitar Hero (but he'd rather read a book) Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age: none Kevin Drew: The NHL games Ian Parton of The Go! Team: none Aesop Rock: Gears of War, God of War 2, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Tim Harrington of Les Savy Fav: Wii Sports Patton Oswalt: currently sworn off video games Eddie Argos of Art Brut: Halo (because he writes funny songs about it) Dan Deacon: Tetris James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem: Goldeneye 007 Ted Leo: Tetris Panda Bear: Ape Escape Greg Saunier of Deerhoof: Qix Girl Talk: NBA Jam Josh Grier of Tapes 'n Tapes: Sonic Pinball Party Colin Meloy of The Decemberists: Dark Castle, Snood Now here's the challenge: pick an artist who you like and play their favorite game or pick your favorite game and listen to the artist who likes that game. Discovery time! |
