Yesterday night, the world of TV comedy got a bit of a drama injection when news broke that Community showrunner Dan Harmon had been fired by Sony pictures Television.P
Do you love NBC’s comedy show, Community? I love Community. Though the show often pokes fun at film and television tropes — typically through the dorky, yet loveable character Abed — the characters sometimes toy around with video game jokes, too.
The other day, we saw some images of a made-up video game based on the characters from NBC’s Community — now, we get to see the “game” in action, complete with vocal performances from the cast. (Though I wonder if at this point they just have a canned recording of Abed saying, “Cool. Cool cool cool.”)

It seems like the character archetypes in every successful TV ensemble show are a bit interchangable — there’s the Rachel, the Ross, the Joey and the Chandler. Or the Samantha, the Carrie and the Miranda. Or, if you watch NBC’s Community, there’s the Troy, the Abed, the Pierce and the Britta.
Last month Blizzard announced that it’s annual fan convention would be skipping a year, returning in 2012 so the developer can focus on things like developing games. Some fans took this well. The Elysiam World of Warcraft guild on the US Shadowmoon server took to song.
What you’re looking at is obviously not the official map of The Legend of Zelda; it’s what The Legend of Zelda’s map looks like to themadjuggler, one of the many contributors to Mapstalgia, a website dedicated to reproducing video game maps from memory.
