The Watercooler is the best thing you will see on the Internet today, mainly because it is the best thing I saw on the Internet yesterday- often silly, controversial, and/or not safe for work.

Warner Bros and Double Fine have announced that a Kinect-based Sesame Street title will be coming out in the Autumn.

With so many exciting games like Natsume’s Harvest Moon—Grand Bazaar and Warner Brothers’ Super Scribblenauts hitting the market soon, and the much anticipated Nintendo 3DS on it’s way, games really need to bring something new to the stand. Mentor Interactive does just that by bringing a game that not only is proving to be a good time for children of all ages, but also

So apparently because some university nerds aren’t getting any, they think that no one else in the world should be, either. That’s why the University of Central Florida has spent nearly a half million dollars on developing a game to help teenage girls resist peer pressure to have sex.

This kid looks like he’s totally having fun, right? Looks like someone is thinking of the children! Yesterday Nintendo of America and Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation promised 500 new “Fun Centers” in hospitals around North America for this year, giving kids a chance to escape the sick room and have some good times chilling with [...]

Grand Theft Auto IV will be released in just about a week. It’s very likely taken over your very consciousness and the only reason that you still eat, sleep, and breathe is because you’d like to live just one more week. But what about us kiddos that are under 17? Those of us that would [...]

Dr. Ryuta Kawashima, the man behind the popular Brain Age games for the DS, is a pretty strange dude. He refuses to accept any of the $11 million in royalties he’s entitled from his involvement in the games, and he doesn’t even really like videogames in the first place. All he wants to do in [...]
