Check This Out: Zelda on banjo and saw

These two country dudes play a variety of Zelda tunes with a banjo, saw, and a variety of weird keyboards. It works surprisingly well.

STOP THE EVERYTHING, TOONAMI IS BACK

THEY DID IT. OR WE DID IT. I DON'T KNOW. BUT I DO KNOW ONE THING AND THAT IS TOONAMI IS COMING BACK. IT IS ALIVE. REALLY. MAY 26TH. FUCK.

Check This Out: Video game collage art

Somebody has given Waluigi some love!

A man by the name of Chris Lange has has created a variety of game-themed collage artwork, something you don't see every day or even associate with video games. It's good stuff, and pretty old school with mostly Punch-Out and Nintendo inspired creations. You can check out some of my favorites after the break, or view the whole gallery at his site.

Check This Out: Animal Crossing ALL the time!

Some dude by the name of Brian Lee made a website that plays Animal Crossing's hourly music and refreshes the song every hour. This is amazing. Now my everyday life can be as relaxing as Animal Crossing! Oh, by the way, it's music from the first game, which makes it automatically 10x better. Check it out!

Edit: Apparently, you can now switch between the music of the original and that of City Folk. Nice addition.

The Mac version of Dusforce is broken... but you should still buy it

I picked up the just released Mac version of Dustforce today, the indie platformer about the war on filth. Unfortunately, the game is completely unplayable. It loads up and the sound works but... that's it. Apparently, I'm not alone with this problem and the devs say they're working on it. In the mean time, head on over to the Steam forums and give them your info if you're having the same problem. If you don't have the game but are interested in the Mac version, I suggest you pick it up anyway because it's part of Steam's midweek sale for the next two days. You might as well grab it while it's $5 and wait for the patch. Both versions were updated today with a new level editor.

There is a new RollerCoaster Tycoon coming May 22nd

Did you used to play the hell out of RollerCoaster Tycoon as a kid? Have you been missing the good 'ol days, wishing Atari would put out a new one? Well do I have news for you! RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D is slated for release on the 3DS May 22nd. The game has gotten zero publicity and that release date may not even stick, but it's good to know the franchise isn't forgotten. I personally loved these games and I'll probably pick this one up too to relive my childhood. It's being developed by n-Space currently working on Heroes of Ruin for the 3DS, and best known for their crazy experimental GameCube FPS Geist.
