Would you pay $42.99 for a 2 GB Flash Memory Stick? You would if it was a friggin’ Transformer!!!

Usually you can get a plain ol’ USB Flash Memory stick for about $25.  So there is a geek tax here.  But never have I been so willing to shell out my hard earned cash for a USB memory stick!

These start shipping in September, so pre-order yours today at BigBadToyStore.com.

Death Star Vs. Enterprise

Unfortunately, The Enterprise is no match for the Death Star.  The video is hosted at  Current and the description states that The Enterprise had to be stopped because they were whale poaching in the waters surrounding San Francisco.

geekArticle: Reflections on Contra

contra-cover

“The Contra series may just be the most manly series of all-time, and is the main factor in the rapid expansion of puberty across the nation. The original game doesn’t even have a story. Aliens are on an island, two macho shirtless dudes blow them the fuck up. Why didn’t the UN just bomb the damn place? “Screw that, we’re on a budget guys. Just send in two of the buffest commandos you got. Oh, and make sure they’re wearing headbands. I hear aliens hate those.”

[Power-up! #1: Spread Shot(Contra series) by GoshdarnBatman, Hardcore Nerdity]

I found this little reflection by GoshdarnBatman from Hardcore Nerdity on Contra amusing.  It took me back to the many hours me and my buddies would spend playing this slice of Nintendo heaven.  Click the above link to read the article and check out some screens below. Enjoy!
