Mother’s Day Video Games
I hope everyone is celebrating Mother’s Day in one way or another! It’s important to give your mom presents that she will love. Of course it’s also important that these presents retain some value to you as well. After all those are the best kind of presents. We’ve got three video games that your mom and maybe even you will enjoy together.
Tetris Evolution (Xbox 360):
Tetris is back in Tetris Evolution! Stack blocks onto blocks filling in any gaps and you win! Well the game is never ending so technically you’ll never win… That’s partially why this series is so addicting. It never ends! With HD graphics, online play, 4 player split-screen multiplayer and a price tag of $29.99 it’s a pretty sweet deal.

Lumines (PSP, Xbox 360):
Lumines is another block game that puts gameplay and music together. It’s crazy backgrounds will hypnotize you as you try to match the color of your squares together. The controls are very simple so hopefully your mom won’t be confused by all the buttons on the controller. Lumines is priced around $19.99.

Cake Mania (PC):
Cake Mania is a resturant ownership game where you have to bake cakes to fit your costumers desires. If your mom has already mastered fast-paced cooking games like Cooking Mama, Cake Mania is the perfect step up in difficulty. With almost 50 levels Cake Mania is a great value at $19.99.

If you know of any other video games that mothers would enjoy, feel free to tell us about them by writing a comment.
Stripes (-)

Have you ever had one of those movies that you really wanted to see for a long time? Well for me Stripes was one of them. I remember seeing the trailer on the Ghostbusters DVD, thinking that the movie would be funny. Well if finally appeared on On-Demand this month and I have to say that it was not worth the wait. There was absolutely nothing funny in this movie! There came a point in the movie that I realized that the quality of the jokes were never going to improve. It was simply a waste of time, except for the women mud wrestling scene.
BlackSite Area 51
We’ve got a look into the new FPS from Midway called BlackSite Area 51. This walkthrough video covers what you can expect from the game being released in September 07 for Xbox 360.
Video Game Screenshots Show
I created a new show on The Pipeline called Video Game Screenshots. It’s basically a slide show with music featuring randomly appearing screenshots from video games across the decades. I’ll continue to upload screenshots to more recent games as I receive them.
What do you think of this show though? Do you like it?
