Video Games Bring in Big Bucks for Charity!

Sony, THQ, Electronic Arts, and the ESA are raising big bucks for charity by releasing the ESA Charity Pack. It's three PS2 games for $20 US - incredibly cheap! If you buy the pack, you'll get ATV Offroad Fury 2, Splashdown: Rides Gone Wild and Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2. The best part is that all the cashola from these games goes to charity.

Microsoft Makes Video Game Fashions

Microsoft and Fox are joining forces and making clothes, toys and accessories based on the coolest Microsoft video games. They're starting with Perfect Dark Zero, which is kinda like James Bond but with a girl hero, and Kameo: Elements of Power, a fantasy game that's kind of like squishing The Legend of Zelda and The Lord of the Rings together.

More Mario Bros. Mayhem for the Nintendo DS

Mario and Luigi are coming back to the Nintendo DS in a 3D version of the classic Super Mario Bros. video game. But, this time you'll be able to play with a friend, at the same time! You and a buddy can hook up and stomp koopas together on the DS, or grab up to four players for the mini-games. You'll have to hang on though, this game doesn't drop until 2006.

Too Much Gaming = Sick Gamers!

It's getting chilly outside and there are tons of cool games to play so it's time to camp out on the couch and have your 'rents deliver your dinner, right? No way! Too many gamers are spending too much time sittin' on their butts and they're getting super sick from lack of exercise. Unless you're playing a shake-your-booty game like Dance Dance Revolution, remember to peel your butt off of the couch and get some exercise every few hours so you don't end up looking like Buu.
