the minus world, video game comedy, sims, MY Sims,

The lovable gang from last year’s hit game MySims is about to get a whole lot sexier. MyS&Ms: Flesh Kingdom, a ground-breaking collaboration between EA and eccentric filmmaker John Waters (made possible due to a good word from Steven Spielberg after his work with EA on the commercial dud Boom Blox), is set to nipple twist the competition and make Animal Crossing its bitch. MyS&Ms will proudly and unapologetically sully Nintendo’s focus on good clean gaming fun. The Create-a-Sim mode will provide myriad options for the discerning fetishist, allowing for a throbbingly huge variety of characters. Want to live out your wildest Pulp Fiction gimp fantasies? Always wished you could walk a mile in the stiletto heels of a dominatrix? Or perhaps you just want to make a cyber facsimile of that leather-clad biker guy from the Village People. MyS&Ms will let you do it, and more.

Since its conception, Sony has repeatedly proclaimed that the PS3 was not a video game console, but clearly a computer. While this was mostly seen as just another pick up line in their long series of baffling attempts to woo the industry through bad PR and scary haircuts, it was one that Sony held close to heart. It’s tough to launch a $600 plastic box without having to save face somehow, and in this instance the plan was to classify it as something it clearly wasn’t.

Finally! Nintendo and Sega just jogged through the toxins of stark overpopulated protest to bring us the most deadly-to-inhale video game of our barely breathable summer. Depicting a much more accurate Beijing festival of treacherous athleticism, Mario & Sonic team up to most likely die in unison. Who will win first!?

So pump your fists and cheer for our species before we’re eradicated by smog and acid rain . Go Olympics!

Hey Tedwin (seriously? the fuck kind of name is that?)

Your first problem, aside from writing like you were raised by eagles, is that Crystalvania 3 isn’t actually a game. Therefore we have no idea what you borrowed from your friend Tommy but its pretty clear that his apparent physical handicaps haven’t stopped him from mentally overpowering your dumb ass. So if there is any form of a “question” you’re asking us in that deformed page full of failure, the answer is “you are retarded.”

We forwarded your letter to Tommy and even received a response from him…

WiiFit has taken the video game marketplace by sweat storm, but one often wonders where exactly the original concept for it was born. Though its been mentioned that Miyamoto’s penchant for healthy exercise was the spark, we had a hunch that it went deeper than that. Through research and a little perspiration of our own, we managed to dig up a rather monumental artifact from the filing cabinet of the big N. Seen above is the only known photo of the brainstorming sessions that lead to WiiFit’s triumphant unveiling. Allegedly, Arnold Schwarzenegger urged Shiggy to make the magic happen, but where did their history begin?

“I get tired of people talking about ‘bad words’ and ‘bad language.’ Bullshit. It’s the context that makes them good or bad” - George Carlin

Words were militant weaponry in the hands of George Carlin, an abrasive and vivid satirist who questioned everything and lacerated everyh subject with equal passion. He taught through decades of public lecture to not only pinpoint hypocrisy but to dissect it, as capacious and controversial as it may seem. There is no modern humorist alive who doesn’t owe at least a bit of gratitude to George and there is no one that will fill his void. Rest in peace to the greatest stand up comedian of all time. We will never forget you and we will always cherish every word you left behind.

Besides being (one of the) very busy (and amazingly talented, yeah that’s right!) artists who help keep this site looking so fresh, I frequently dip into some side freelance stuff that isn’t always related to the-minusworld.com. It’s especially rare and exciting when I get a gig designing something video game related. Recently I teamed up with the hip hop site Philaflava.com and created a line of tees inspired by iconic pixelated faces, one of which of course being the legendary Mike Tyson of Punch-Out! fame. He deserves some NES inspired shine after getting ditched for Mr. Dream later in his video game career. The shirts are on some 8-bit on steroids type shit and rest comfortably on a baby blue tee. To pick one up or check out the rest of the lineup (which includes rapper Ghostface Killah and even Curb’s Larry David) just head on over here. You won’t find a doper video game shirt this summer and if you do, mine can still beat yours up.
