Epic Portal Song For Your Friday
I could watch that new Avengers commercial on repeat from now until the movie comes out, but we have bigger fish to fry today! Namely, this awesome song.
That video was done up by Harry101UK. I’ve featured a few others of his Portal songs back in the day, but this video became available recently, and Henchwoman Alyssa found it and shared it with me. It’s just such a chilling, awesome song. Those Portal games are a blast.

My 6 Favorite Dragonball Z Characters
I have been on a real Dragonball Z kick recently. It owes a lot to the fact that I’m currently a master fighter in the new video game Dragonball Xenoverse! The game is a fast-paced, energy-blasting, butt-whooping battle game featuring not only a wealth of DBZ characters, but also my own original create-a-character! I love create-a-character modes in video games, especially unique games like Xenoverse.
The excitement of going Super Saiyan with my own original character is pretty awesome.
One of these things
Of course, playing a DBZ video game got me back into watching the DBZ cartoon, because I haven’t actually seen the whole thing. My brother got me into DBZ back in high school, and I started watching week days after school during the Cell Saga. Since then, I’ve gone back and watched all of the earlier episodes, but until this month, I had never seen a single episode of the show’s climactic Buu Saga! Consider that rectified!
To celebrate my utterly random re-interest in Dragonball Z, I decided to make this week’s List of Six about all of my favorite characters! And feel free to bask in the nostalgia and share some of your own in the comments!
Dorkly Knows Superheroes
Dorkly is usually all about video games, but they understand superheroes too, and are just saying what we’re all thinking.
For my money, Captain America: Civil War is easily going to trounce Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice!
And on a personal note, sorry for being so quiet this week, everything! I’ve been pretty busy, and I might have some good news on the horizon! I’ll let you all know when and if I can!

Old Meets New in Resident Evil
For the umpteenth time, the original Resident Evil game has been re-mastered with new and awesome graphics. But someone with the message board handle of Bunny has decided to splice that re-mastered graphical awesomeness with the original game’s very-outdated audio. It is, quite simply, brilliant.
This is the sort of genius idea that the Internet was made for. I loved the original Resident Evil games. I think they were the reason I went with Playstation back in those early video game wars. I think I played Resident Evil 2 half a dozen times.

Sometimes All You Need On a Tuesday is a Mario/Taken Parody
Fortunately for us all, WTFLOL was kind enough to provide. This sort of thing is the bread and butter of the Internet, and it’s pretty well made and funny. I’m fairly certain all references in this trailer are old enough to attend middle school now, but it’s still some quality Internetting. Kudos!
And thank you to Henchgirl Alyssa for finding and sharing this gem.
