Screw Attack's Bad Boy Round Up

The wags at ScrewAttack have a new video out chronicling the Ten Biggest Douchebags of Gaming. Wario is there as is my arch nemesis, the Burger King, but not all the douches are digital. Our favorite lawyer friend (who shall not be named lest he arive in a puff of sulfurous smoke) makes an appearance as well. Who's at number one? It might not be who you think, but I'll say it's a classic character who isn't human. Any guesses?

EB Games Prices Are Insane

While the prices you find on the used shelves at EB Games and GameStop generally follow no logical pattern whatsoever other than the whimsy of a man in an office somewhere who was never played a video game in his life, this one is just ridiculous. It's bad enough some of us paid $3.99 for the Burger King games, especially now that they've dropped down to $.99. Now EB comes along and wants to charge double original retail price for a used copy of Pocketbike Racer?

Does this make sense to anyone? Did a conversation with someone in head office end with, "Look, I'm busy...just pick a price, dammit!"? Kind of makes you wonder how much they trade the games in for though, doesn't it? More »

Burger King Games Drop To 99 Cents

If your weren't one of the 3.2 million people that purchased the terrifying Burger King games over the last 6 months or so, your dreams of forcing people to eat virtual disgusting fast food can now come true for a mere 99 cents. The Hushed Casket is reporting that Burger King has dropped the price of their bizarrely popular games from four bucks a piece to less then a dollar, complete with photographic evidence. One commenter on the site wrote in saying they purchased the games without even having to buy the food. Truly a blessing if there ever was one.

Burger King Profits from Your Pain

Burger King has published its quarterly earnings report today, reporting an $11 million rise in net income over this time last year. The leap is being attributed to the 360 video game promotion, which spurred sales as gamers flocked to chain restaurants to pick up the three King-based titles, presumably being unable to find a sharp enough stick to poke in their eyes instead.

Head to Hungry Jack's, Get Mario Key Chain

Just like "Victoria Bitter" means "water," "Hungry Jack's" is Australian for "Burger King." Nintendo of Australia has teamed up with the Ozzie eatery to help celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Super Mario Bros. and is giving away character keychains with Kids Club Meals. Customers get a choice of Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Princess Peach or Donkey Kong and also are entered into a draw to win a DS Lite and a copy of New Super Mario Bros.

Burger King To Sell Xbox 360 Games?

Hamburger flipper Burger King is considering a promotion that offers 3 exclusive BK-branded games. Each would feature their own characters (in this case, the actual Burger King) in "popular" genres (fighting, action and racing). The action game is apparently similar to Halo, while the fighter combines Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. Just tack on a "with hamburgers," and you get the drift. More »
