You may be familiar with Andy Riley's superb book The Bunny Suicides. We liked it so much, we thought we'd create an homage to it, using everyone's favourite flower-headed people.

These Pikmin burned too bright for this world. Rest in pieces

Last year we revealed our Magic: The Gathering expansion based on the original Legend of Zelda. Its creator, GR associate KREATIVEassassin, continued his work and has since made a larger, even more thorough set of cards that focus on Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Millions love Zelda, millions play the card game, and both of these properties involve magic, monsters and all kinds of mysterious artifacts – in other words, they’re a perfect fit.

If you’re a fan of one, you’ll really get a kick out of this. If you’re a fan of both, hoo boy, this is amazing. The cards’ abilities, functions and type weren’t chosen willy nilly – they’re dead-on accurate to the NES game, and are expertly transferred into the rules of Magic: The Gathering. KREATIVE even went and invented a couple of new terms (Headshot, for one) that work great in this expansion, yet could easily be transferred into the real MTG game. Enough talk!

We really scraped the bottom of the barrel to come up with this week’s Trailer Trash. These videos are so terrible that we had to say some bad words, so if you’re easily offended, please move along. There’s nothing to see here

Not everyone owns an iPhone, it just seems that way because they get all the coverage. If you own an Android phone, you may have struggled to find the best games – many look like 30-minute creations by junior high students with newfound fascinations for Java. But not all of them - we did some digging, and found plenty of fast-paced and well-designed Android games that are being overlooked. The following 25 have caused us a few sleepless nights and some very sore fingertips.

What happened to gaming? The past two years haven’t been about blockbuster games. The most exciting, most innovative, most playable games aren’t from the usual suspects. Instead, they’re being made by coffee-shop artists who are absolutely outclassing the establishment. Who are these heroes? Where did they come from? How did they do it? And, anyway, what the hell is indie gaming?

Tired of all the iPhone love at GR? Want to learn more about Android, the Sega Genesis of mobile device that do many things including play games? Then have we got a list of games for you...

Can this industry possibly withstand more zombie titles? Can the mobile platform possibly withstand any more restaurant-based games? When the zombies are sumo wrestlers cooking up Mac and Fleas for patrons who risk being eaten themselves by choosing to eat at your restaurant, the answer is yes, indeed. Capcom’s free-to-play Zombie Café belongs on your iPhone, regardless of the fact that it may convince the curmudgeonliest of freebie pluckers to fork over iTunes cash...

Time for another iPhone game featuring zombies. You can't move for undead-themed games on iTunes, and quite a few of them are really good. That's why Zombie Flick is worth mentioning -- it takes a lot to stand out among all the other great zombie games, and this is most assuredly among the best.
