GeekWife’s Blog – My Favorite Game of All Time: Tetris

This being my first-ever post as the GeekWife I figured I would start with an old passion and pastime of mine: Tetris. I can’t tell you whether it was the NES or the GameBoy that introduced me to this classic but I can tell you that I dedicated many hours of my life to mastering this game.

While Stumbling yesterday, I came across this Tetris/Mario Bros mash-up:

Tuper Tario Tros

The tricky part of this game at first was figuring out the controls (mainly jump, which is  ’s’ and ‘x’) seconded by having to avoid becoming Goomba food at the end.

After spending some time and frustration on that game, and at the recommendation of SnowytheGeek himself, I was introduced to this gem:

First Person Tetris

All I can say is “wow”.

Enjoy the games!

Geek Blog – Final Fantasy + Music Video = Win

I’m not entirely sure what drove me to dredge the interwebs’ series of tubes for “Final Fantasy Music Video” this morning, but I pulled up some real gems.  In addition to the two singles that came from the under-valued FFX-2 (Real Emotion and 1000 Words) by Koda Kumi, but also some more modern tracks that go hand in hand with choice cut scenes from the Final Fantasy series.  Here we have Clay Aiken’s “The Way” which I’ll dedicate to my lovely Geek Wife.  Bon Jovi’s “It’s My Life”, Mariah Carey’s “Bye Bye” and the two FFX-2 singles are below the jump.

A musical displaying the history of video game music from the ancient Atari days through the glory of SNES-dom.  Remixed and produced by remix artist Norg.  A good trip down Nostalgia Ave.

Geek Blog – Mario Parodies Jersey Shore

I’ve never seen Jersey Shore (I kind of don’t want to). We don’t have cable or really watch much television at the Geek House. We do; however, absolutely love the Mario Brothers.  I posted a video earlier by YouTube user DrCoolSex: a trailer for a Mario Kart movie.  Looks like those costumes did not go to waste.
