Forget Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford and Olivia Wilde, this parody has 10 times the star power of Cowboys & Aliens. Pikachu, Charmander and Jigglypuff all make cameo’s in X-Play’s Cowboys & Pokemon. Ash Ketchum has no memory, a price on his head and one question – who’s that pokemon? More »

The royal wedding between Prince William and his long-term girlfriend Kate Middleton on April 29 will be a lavish spectacle of celebrity and ceremony, a once-in-a-lifetime celebration that will be remembered for decades to come.

…instead of Shigeru Miyamoto, it would look something like this, a blend of Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, in which Link, Zelda and… err, Tingle go looking for love. More »

Duty Calls Is A Quick And Brutal Stab At Call Of Duty

4:30AM February 3, 2011 | Mike Fahey
