video games

We all know that I love Nintendo right? That's not news at all! Instead of massive advertising campaigns, Nintendo goes with releasing their new stuff via a YouTube series named Nintendo Direct. On the latest video, Nintendo announces a ton of new things going on!

When you usually think of first-person shooters on video games, you think games like Call of Duty, Doom, etc. Chances are you have played such a game. Where did it all start, though?

We all know it, we all love it. If you played the original Nintendo growing up, you have most likely played the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game.

This is incredibly awesome! A little while ago I posted a Kickstarter campaign for a local video game convention trying to get up off the ground.

Guess what!? You remember that cool video game symphony that I was talking about on WGRD.com for the past few weeks? Well, tickets can be pretty expensive, but why pay for them when you can win them though us? Heck yea, we have free tickets to rePlay: Symphony of Heroes that you could win!

"I've heard of Grand Theft Auto! It's a pretty big show!" "Seems to be a very popular game with the kids... why would you want to teach the kids how to steal a car?" And so it begins-- senior citizens playing Grand Theft Auto V. Why? Because, the Internet.

It's hard to definite the most awkward moment from a video game convention, because most of it is awkward. But we think we may have found it.
