Weekly Wii Update – Strong Bad Meets Mega Man 2
12:40AM Mike Fahey | Strong Bad returns to WiiWare in the second installment of his excellent new Telltale Games adventure series, Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People this week, and what better Virtual Console title to go along with said release than Mega Man 2? It’s the two great tastes that taste great together – just ask Stinkoman. The latest SBCG4AP, titled Strong Badia the Free (1,000 points), deals with the King of Town finally succumbing to the power of office, instituting an email tax that sends Strong Bad on a quest for revolution. Also on WiiWare this week, Potpourrii (800 points), which is a puzzle game I’ve not heard of featuring helping leprechauns defeat an evil wizard. It looks kind of like a circular, multiplayer Bubble Bobble. Check out the official website for more info. More »A Look at Strong Bad’s New Office

Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People: Homestar Ruiner Review
6:00AM Mike Fahey | Strong Bad and friends have been entertaining the internet for over eight years now, combining colourful characters and pop culture reference to create one of the web’s rare clean destinations for comedic entertainment. As regular visitors to Homestarrunner.com know, video games have played a large part in the series over the year, to the point where they even created a fictional video game developer, Videlectrix (”We use computers…to make video games”), to handle their vast catalogueof titles. Now the Brothers Chap have teamed up with Telltale Games to deliver the first “proper” Homestar Runner video game in the form of Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People, an episodic adventure game for the Wii and PC. The long-awaited first episode “Homestar Ruiner” is now available, and we checked it out to see if it passes muster or deserves to be DELETED! More »
Weekly Wii Update: Homestar Parodier
12:40AM Mike Fahey | Well this is certainly a pleasant change of pace after several weeks of relative crap with a side order of Beer Pong. Not only does the Wii get the first episode of Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People on WiiWare (1,000 Points) this week, we also get the formerly Japan-only Star Parodier for the TurboGrafx 16 CD-ROM (900 Points). Star Parodier is a Hudson game that pokes fun at traditional shooter conventions, giving players a choice between playing as the Paro Ceaser from Star Soldier, a giant flying Bomberman, or a living PC Engine Console that fires HuCards and CDs at the enemy. The first episode of SBCGAP, Homestar Ruiner, follows Strong Bad’s efforts to crush Homestar’s spirit, and subsequent rebuilding of said spirit once the crushing goes awry. Rounding things off is another TurboGrafx title, the pool title Break In (700 points), ruining what could have been a stellar crop while looking that much better for the company it’s keeping. More »
