Good Grief, it’s Team Roomba

Posted by Japanerd | August 26, 2008 .

A scout runs and jumps while inside the spawn, jamming himself in the door, and preventing it from opening. The rest of his team looks at him strangely, waiting for him to move. Then a pyro asks, “Is he glitched, or just being a douchebag?”. A medic answers, “I think it’s a little of column [...]

Bubble Tanks 2 - Message in a Bubble

Posted by Japanerd | August 11, 2008 .

Bubble Tanks 2, sequel to the excellent Bubble Tanks, is an incredibly creative shooter. As the name implies, you play as a Bubble Tank in a bubble world flying around shooting other bubbles so as to absorb their bubbles to make your own bubble bigger and better. The game has a lot of bubbles, to [...]

Rip DVDs to Your Computer the Express Way

Posted by Japanerd | June 28, 2008 .

A few days ago I downloaded Extra DVD Ripper Express from Give Away of the Day. It’s a handy little program that you use to rip DVD’s to your computer in almost a dozen different possible formats. This way you don’t have to spend extra money to get videos off of iTunes or similar programs, [...]

It’s Time for a Halo Flash Knockoff

Posted by Japanerd | June 24, 2008 .

I loaded up Addicting Games today and once again began rummaging around for a halfway decent flash game. In a desperate attempt to avoid another stupid stick figure flash game, I decided to play Vulcan. To be perfectly honest, I couldn’t finish this game. It was horrific. At first glance, it seemed promising, then I [...]

Sniper Assassin- How Many Stick figure Sniper Games are There?

Posted by Japanerd | June 22, 2008 .

After many hours of searching for a somewhat enjoyable flash game (which is quite hard to find these days) I found Sniper Assassin. Sniper Assassin is one of the many stick figure shooter games, and I had the displeasure of playing it.

According to the games description, it’s “a job that requires finesse and nerves of [...]

It’s a Big Week for Browsers, The Launch of Opera 9.50

Posted by Japanerd | June 21, 2008 .

Shortly before the launch of Firefox 3.0, Opera had a launch of its own. Version 9.50 of the venerable browser signified a turn in Opera’s interface. An almost complete overhaul of Opera’s tab interface, as well as many separate new features of its own.
Being a long time Opera user, (though now throughly devoted to Firefox), [...]

Coke, The Not Energy Drink That’s Still Awesome

Posted by Japanerd | June 9, 2008 .

In the aftermath of a purchase of Rock Band, I find myself with an acute lack of money. Because of this, I am reviewing whatever I happen to have in my fridge today, which happens to be Coca-Cola. Now, you may be saying to yourself, in your whiny high-pitched 12 year old voice, “But Japanerd! [...]

Zombie Arena Is Yet Another Zombie Shooter

Posted by Japanerd | June 6, 2008 .

Today I decided to step away from energy drinks, and review a good ol’ fashioned zombie slaughtering flash game, just like grandma used to make. Anyways, I popped open Mozilla, and went straight to my second favorite source of flash games, Addicting Games. I looked at their front page and noticed Zombie Arena. That’s where [...]
