Eighties Arcade Table: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?
All things old are becoming new again, and this '80s Arcade Table is no exception.

King of Kong: Fistful of Quarters Comes to DVD
If you didn't get to see King of Kong: Fistful of Quarters when it came out in limited release in theaters last year, then I'm telling you, you have to see this movie when it comes out on DVD January 29th.

He doesn't just face rolling barrels — Wiebe finds something much more challenging in the real world: Mulleted ego-maniac Billy Mitchell and his nerdy goons.

Donkey Kong Puts the On Back in Education
A group of 10 UC Santa Cruz engineering students spent five hours of prime reading and studying time to create a four-story post-it art piece inspired by everyone's favorite Nintendo classic video game Donkey Kong. And I must say, it was time well spent.
The piece, which stretched throughout the windows of a campus building, was created with 6,400 post-it notes; however, in order to get the colors right the crew actually purchased a whopping 14,000.
