    Luigi Gets Revenge, Uses Death Stare in Real-Life Mario Kart Video

    The Mario Kart Luigi “Death Stare” meme comes to life in new way with a slickly produced video that shows what happens when you make Luigi mad.

    16 Things You See in Every Anime Series

    Multicolored, Spiked Hair As a general rule of thumb, male anime characters cannot have normal looking hair. It must be either spiked or a weird color — ideally both, like Yugi here.

    Key ’90s moment: Dramatically dropped her WWF belt into the trash on WCW’s Monday Nitro. As Madusa, Miceli wrestled in Japan and kicked butt in the WCW. As Blayze, she scored the WWF championship. And, finally, after being cut by the WWF, she triumphantly returned to the WCW (as Madusa, natch) and pulled the trash-can…

    Cities: Skylines – Natural Disasters Review

    I never missed catastrophes in Cities: Skylines. Dealing with rampaging extraterrestrials, Armageddon-instigating asteroids, and visits from giant lizards have long been a hallmark of the SimCity line, but Colossal Order’s city builder seemed too buttoned-down for such outlandish developments.
