Nintendo Wii-fit will surely present a counter-argument soon.

This study notes that game playing is causing Americans to get fat. What is not noted is that everything in America -including things you cannot eat- will make you fat. For example, KFC has made a great deal of money selling non-food to an ever increasing US population.

Going off a link on that page it also appears that statisticians are crunching the numbers to see what would happen in the event of a zombie attack. Good to see the BBC is bringing us the news we need.

Geeging back to game news, the PS3 is now officially going on a diet and dropping in price. Now that I think about it I'm not certain if this actual news since the leaks about this have been so widespread that even the zombies who haven't managed to claw their way out of their graves have heard these PS3 rumors.

Statistically speaking, being (or becoming) an American will make you fat.

but
I don't know how much a cheeseburger costs
and I get apples for free

though truth be told, *were* I to eat a cheeseburger I would have to be paid an incredibly huge sum of money, so I guess in a way that's cheaper than an apple.

This is one of my favorite "realistic" renditions of Mario. I love how Wars Man appears unedited at the end, presumably standing in for Buzzy Beetle.

These illustrations by notable pulp painter Ishihara Goujin are also AMAZING:

I have known those mesmerizing Mario illustrations for years, but didn't have a clue about the author. Ishihara Goujin's works are truly amazing! Thanks a lot for sharing, Nobita, you made my day!
