Geek Blog – Yoshi Jumps HIGH
Call it a glitch. Call it an exploit of new game mechanics. I call it hilarious and awesome!
Thank you YT user MAST3RLINKX
It appears as if the player leaps into the air with Yoshi, extends his jump with Yoshi’s special ability, then quickly dismounts/remounts and uses Yoshi’s special ability again. The timing on this kind of jump would have to be difficult to master at first, but can allow you to get to otherwise unreachable areas (like the top of a volcano, as shown in the video).
I’ve had a blast with this game (as with most Mario games). How has your experience been?

Geek Blog – Mario Galaxy 2 Release is Coming
I can’t wait to pick up my prepurchased copy at GameStop. For those of you who got warm and fuzzies from my other posts about SMG2, check out the “Twinkling” (harhar) review put up on GameTrailers:
Geek Blog – Still Alive
The ending credits start to roll. You now know the cake is absolutely, a lie. You’ve escaped the Aperture Science labs and outsmarted the sarcastic AI GLaDOS. Then you’re treated to an upbeat song penned by John Coulton: “Still Alive”; you have beaten Valve’s “Portal”, a unique, physics-based game where you can create doorways in walls, ceilings and floors, much like the ACME holes of Saturday Morning Cartoon legend.
Now, for some reason, I can’t stop listening to this song. When it comes up on my playlist, I turn it up. Apparently I’m not alone. Check out the following interpretations/covers of this song, the original and a special bonus after the jump. But first, enjoy this children’s choir rendition, complete with light show!
Thanks YT user joinchoir

Geek Blog – Dork Anthem
LOL. Should be the Geek Anthem. Very well written. “I was first in line to buy Halo 3/On Friday nights I play D&D.”
I love it! Check out more of Dave and Brian’s stuff on the iTunes store.

Geek Blog – Symphony of Science 5
The Symphony of Science is a musical project headed by John Boswell designed to deliver scientific knowledge and philosophy in musical form.
The project owes its existence in large measure to the wonderful work of Carl Sagan, Ann Druyan, and Steve Soter, of Druyan-Sagan Associates, and their production of the classic PBS Series Cosmos, as well as all the other featured figures and visuals.
