Periodic Table of Controllers

We’ve seen the Periodic Table of Video Game Characters (which was really quite good) and also the Periodic Table of Xbox Games (which unfortunately was not). Next up for your tabular-method-of-illustrating-recurring-trends enjoyment is the Periodic Table of Controllers. Strikingly beautiful and visually intriguing, this particular interpretation is definitely worthy of pouring over. How many of these memorable controllers have you had the pleasure of handling over the entirety of your exalted video game career? And no, playing with your own joystick doesn’t count.

He Can Visit My Castle

Have you ever thought about what you would do if you randomly encountered Mario while sauntering down the street one day? Considering his typical encounters with the prude and prissy Princess, I’d probably see if his neglected pipes needed some routine servicing. Laying or cleaning, I’d be up for either. While my expected encounter is not included in this more than entertaining Mario in real life video, many other situations are. Maybe they’ll cover my happenstance in the next one. I can hope anyways.

Now You See Me, Now You Don’t

The only thing better than picking up a shotgun, grabbing active camo, and completely obliterating people’s faces is grabbing that active camo (along with a few stickies) and planting glowing blue orbs on opponents’ backs who unknowingly run right past you. That is why this active camouflage-themed trio, which is currently up for grabs on eBay with a starting bid of US $59.99, is absolutely screaming my name. A custom clear Halo 3 Xbox 360 faceplate (adorned with the United Nations Space Command Defense Force insignia) comes bundled with a matching miniature Master Chief Kubrick figure and also a mock plasma grenade. The illuminated by a blue-white LED and a red laser Covenant explosive also comes with a little metal cup to sit in. Like that sucker wouldn’t always be in your hands or otherwise somehow in use. I wonder if that sticky has an enemies only option. I should look into that in the actual game too.

That’s Just Wrong: Kamikaze

That’s Just Wrong is a horribly distasteful Halo 3 screenshot series that focuses on offensive images that are completely and utterly wrong. If you are not wearing your big girl panties or if you have a particular fondness for killing the messenger, please abstain from viewing this especially repugnant collection. And yes, wrong picture is wrong. Incredibly so as a matter of fact.
