@ Sylizar - The first page? Well, I must admit the frog was a tough call. That miniature motorcycle is pretty darn sweet...

This can't be the last one Charlie!

There needs to be at least one more, if only because:

GamesRadar Rooms:
BC Rearmed GamesRadar Challenge Room vs. your cubicle or the bathroom or whatever at GR offices.
Criminals:
Carmen Sandiego vs. Charlie Manson
Socialism: (or egalitarianism)
Animal Crossing vs. miserable proletariats
Equinox:
the game vs. picture of calendar date
Majors:
Major Nelson vs. Major Dad
Smuggling:
Smuggler's Run screen vs. X-ray of balloons in drug mule's intestinal tract
Sin:
S.I.N. vs. sin
Grandparents:
Wind Waker Grandma vs. Some toothless old coot
Normandy:
Ship in Mass Effect vs. WWII battle
Mining tools:
Dead Space guns vs. pick axes, TNT
Fishers:
Sam Fisher vs. Fishermen

damn it Charlie, don't get me started again!

And I knew that "video games" would be the ultimate end to your article...to bad its the last article. Thanks for taking my suggestion.

Something about video game Mike Tyson beating the real Mike Tyson is a little disturbing.

Report

The vending machines and mascots are better in real life. And way to pick the worst possible monster picture ever for real life, c'mon at least be truthful. The best video game win was the laser thing, haha
