The single greatest thing to come out of Adult Swim just got even greater. How could Robot Unicorn Attack get any better? Panda, Wolf, Gorilla and Dragon. Yes.
The Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim flash games might not always be wonderful examples of gaming goodness, but they generally have pretty good names. Case in point, Lesbian Spider Queens of Mars. How can you not play that?
We’ve had Give Up Robot as a Lunchtimewaster before, and now we’ve got Give Up Robot 2 – with added quirk. This platformer has a constant (often misspelt) narrative from a very GlaDOS-like supercomputer, taunting you to give up. It’s challenge comes from a grapple mechanic which only goes in an upward diagonal direction – but whether or not the platforming is to your liking, the interactions with cute power switches and humour make it worth a play.
Those who enjoyed the Aqua Teen Hunger Force show from Adult Swim some years back would’ve loved to have an equally funny game. The cracked humour seems tailor made for us. But the PS2 game that eventually did come out was abysmal, and judging from the trailer for their new iPhone game, we can expect more of the same.

There’s nothing better than storming the purple shores of some nameless land as a robot, rainbow-shitting unicorn to the beat of Erasure’s Always. NOTHING!!!
The Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim is back with another irreverent flash game to help you while away a lazy Monday morning. This time around they’re taking on the Trauma Center series with the game Alan Probe: Amateur Surgeon. Join Alan, a pizza delivery guy whose truck’s faithful meeting with a former doctor leads him to give up his day job in favor of performing unauthorised surgery in a dirty clinic. Open the patient with your pizza cutter, remove glass with salad tongs, close them up with your stapler and then cauterize the wound with your Zippo! Other available tools include a corkscrew, a car battery, and an Etch-A-Sketch? All the fun of surgery with none of those silly hygiene guidelines – plus his name is an anagram for Anal Probe! Top quality.

Where did this come from? I’m not the biggest fan of Adult Swim’s Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but I like to think if someone was making a game based on the series, I would know about it.
Apparently not.
It looks like a golf game. Except you get to hit people with swords and chainsaws. Master Shake appears to be the only playable character, but then, I’m going off the screenshots (available for your perusal after the jump, along with the press release).
But, what’s this “Zombie Ninja” thing in the title? If anything’s scarier than a zombie, it would have to be a zombie pirate. Pyjamas don’t frighten me, see.
If you own a Playstation 2, then this whacky title from Red Ant and Midway can be yours. The $29.95 RRP doesn’t bode well, however.
