(click to hear the musical)
There are a million different video game related webcomics around the internet, but Brawl in the Family has to be one of my favorites, as it uses all the characters found in Super Smash Bros. Brawl in a variety of hilarious scenarios.
Well, its’ their 200th comic, and they’ve gone all out and crafted an exceptionally long, musical comic, the full extent of which I couldn’t possibly show you here, but it is in fact the greatest thing I’ve seen all day. Click here or on the picture above to see/hear it for yourself.

How do I say this without sounding insensitive? The Japanese are into some weird shit. Of course I’m aware that there’s a massive cultural difference, but I’m always more fascinated/scared of Japanese stuff than I am others. Like, tentacle rape porn? Wow. Anyway, Domo-kun is one of those strange Japanese inventions that for some reason I really like.
The first image of Domo-kun I had ever seen was on that poster that read “Every time you masturbate, God kills a kitten.” Pretty funny. Domo-kun is the mascot of a Japanese television station and, a lot like Hello Kitty, has appeared on all sorts of things. What the hell it actually is, I have no idea.
Take a look at Domo-kun taking over just about anything you can think of after the jump.

This collection of amazing drawings are from Vincent Proce, for a pitch he made to Midway for a multiplayer hack-n-slash Mortal Kombat game that never got off the ground, which as you can see from the sketches, is a damn shame. Really, they picked DC vs MK over this?
In addition to Scoprion up there, he also had concept art for Raiden, Sonya and Kano which I’ve posted after the jump, and hopes to do the rest of the characters in his free time, even though he no longer works for Midway. Some truly awesome stuff here, click on any of the pictures ot make them bigger.

And to answer your question, yes Commando, Alien and Rambo ALL came out before Contra did, so the box art team clearly had a bit of plagiarism going on there. Schwarzenegger could be a goddamn tracing! Good thing they added that headband, or else they might have actually had to have paid royalties!
Anyway, all the movies are awesome and the game is awesome, so I won’t hold it against anyone.

Just yesterday I saw this commercial for the state of California and of course Governor Schwarzenegger made an appearance with his wife. What did the man say? “You’ll be back.”
I have to admit it was kind of awesome. I mean despite the fact that he now wears more makeup than Lady Gaga it was still cool to hear one of his signature movie lines.
And while I thought no picture would be better than the one we posted of him, Andre the Giant, and Wilt Chamberlain, this one is pretty awesome.
Though I think it might be a photoshop. If not, it’s highly badass. Even so, it’s still cool.

I vaguely remember this episode, but I can’t quite place it. If I had about sixty free hours on my hands, I’d write a “Top 50 friends guest stars you totally forgot about” list, but my torrent que is already too long to download every season of Friends for that endeavor. I beseech you, the internet, to do this for me!

I’m creating, hosting and ending a contest right here and now. The winner of Unreality’s first (and only) ever Best Box Art in the Universe Contest goes to Crack Down, the most WTF game of the century.
I’m too busy playing Bloons Tower Defense to research what this game was about, so I’m just going to go ahead and assume you fight giant demon goats with assault rifles and no shirts while being aided by Stormtroopers and apes. How close am I?

The answer to your question is 30 hours and 673 layers of paint. The hair alone should have taken a full week in my estimation.
I’m so glad other people have such insane amounts of time on their hands so I get to witness stuff like this. Bra-vo.
