    Video Game Fan Videos that Don't Blow (Valve Edition)

    For the next few blogs, I'm going to compile some of my favorite fan videos. In the same vein (vain? I can never remember which word goes with the phrase) as the Quotes of the Week (now handled by the All-Mighty Alex_99, who needs more quotes, by the way...support him, damnit!), I'm going to need suggestions for the next edition, so get on it!

    First up, we have my choices for anything Valve-related (Garry's Mod FTW!).

    So, without further whatever, enjoy "Video Game Fan Videos that Don't Blow (Valve Edtion)":

    Portal: A Day in the Life of a Turret

    Counter-Strike For Kids (Credit goes to Haziq for posting this in the Off-Topic Lounge)

    Ballad of Black Mesa

    Half life: Full Life Consequences 1, & 2

    The Idiots of Garry's Mod

    ________________________________________________

    Next time (whenever that is), I'm doing the Nintendo Edition, so PM me any Nintendo-related funnies (doesn't have to be videos, by the way. Pictures, Gifs, comics...whatever you think is funny works for me). I'll give you credit, plus, you'll look cool. Win-win right there, snitches!

    Until then,

    Awesome-o!

    I posted this in the Off-Topic Lounge in the Wii forums already, but what the Hell, I'll post it here too. It's worth it.

    These are decals (removable stickers, in other words) that you can put on your walls. It's like wallpaper, except it's a lot easier.

    Best part? They're video game-related!

    Check them out (click on the links for the site):

    8-Bit Sprites

    New Super Mario Bros.

    Space Invaders

    Donkey Kong

    And my personal favorite (obviously),

    Super Mario Bros.

    I wish I had the money ($75.00 ), but more importantly, I wish my girlfriend wouldn't kill me if I put those up on our walls...I mean, she's into video games, but there's a fine line you see...and if you step over it you're officially a "nerd", and those decals would most likely push me over the edge. I'm pushing my luck as it is with my bookshelf full of games...Maybe I could put the decals on my bookshelf!!! It's perfect!

    Anybody else interested in getting them? If not, what video game (or Cartoon, movie, etc.) would you want on your walls?

    Personally, I really like the Mario Bros one, but I'm sure a lot of you guys want Zelda or FF or something crazy like that. Your thoughts?

    In Russia, Taco Eats You...

    It's true, I lost a friend to the evil taco-demons. It's a serious problem on the streets of Russia. Here's a picture for proof:

    Ok, now that that's out of the way, I can get to the real meaning of this post. For my birthday (yesterday), I gifted myself the best invention ever created by man. Is it antibiotics? Nope. Is it electricity? No (In fact, you can't even buy electricity. Little known fact). Is it a taco? I wish.

    No, it's even better than all of those put together:

    Read that again. It's not the game, it's the cartoon. Hells yes it is.

    Now all I need is the Ninja Turtles TV show and my childhood is complete.

    Man, I used to draw so many pictures of Mario in kindergarten...good times.

    What shows did you guys watch as a kid?
