Work Hard, Play Hard: and when it’s time to take a break…

admin November 6th, 2008

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I think it was Gandhi who said it best, when we told us that hard work is a spiritual matter, and by putting our undivided selves into everything we do, we’re granted a glimpse of spiritual enlightenment. Well, even though that’s definitely a noteworthy - and commendable - philosophy, it goes without saying that a men (or woman) has gotta be able to take a little break every now and then, to wind down the pressure.

With that in mind, I’m providing you today with not one, but actually a butt-load of fun flash games which I hereby encourage that you play off until your heart sings in leisurely contentment. I know some of you people had been moaning because It’s been a long time since I presented you with a good lead for a Flash-based coffee break type of game. Well, this time around you get more than you ask for… including all types of games you can thing of, such as Flash remakes of classic games and even some games of the … Naughty variant.

So go ahead and play hard, but make sure you don’t keep track of time… and when your batteries are replenished, may you get back to your hard work with renewed vitality. Now go, my children… and have some fun! Like this:

admin September 29th, 2008

It’s great news for gaming fans all across the globe: Nintendo is going to be releasing the new, improved version of the DS (touted by some as “DS Advance” and “DS2″ by others), which is rumored to include more powerful graphics, bigger screens, and double tactile input similar to iPhone.

Naturally, the official specs haven’t been disclosed yet, but throughout the Internet, some creative people have been coming up with some rather inspired creative visualizations. I figured I’d round up some of my favorite for your viewing enjoyment, so here you go:

Also, I’ve found this picture from an actual patent that was registered by nintendo two years ago. While it’s unknown if this was a discarded DS prototype or actually the new model, it sure looks like an intriguing concept to me.
