Snake, cake, a children’s book and a naughty ending? For Kotaku After Dark? Why, it couldn’t capture the spirit of the times better if it had a Zeitgeistmatron 3000. Called “Snake Bakes a Cake”, it’s the work of both Ms. Anne Moloney & a Mr. Foley, who somehow manage to take a charming story about baking a cake and turn it into (mildly) erotic, illustrated Metal Gear fan fiction. Being (mildly) erotic, anyone aghast at the thought of seeing Snake’s derrière should probably not click through.

Nokia’s revamped N-Gage, now a multi-handset platform rather than standalone hardware, is trying to learn from its predecessor’s mistakes. Ditching the rubbish hardware was a good first step. Harking back to Nokia’s one shining triumph in the gaming world – Snake – might be another. This is Snake for the N-Gage, which is nothing like your granddaddy’s Snake. It’s got online leaderboards, a snazzy new colour scheme and reacts to the background music (though, criminally, not your own mp3s). Definitely looks like an improvement, but then…what was wrong with the old Snake? [via Pocket Gamer]
