Wreck-It-Ralph Arcade Competition in Miami Suffers a Glitch

Mario and Bowser. Link and Gannon. Halo and Call of Duty. These are some of the classic rivalries in video game history. But no rivalry is as heated as the one between real life gaming world record juggernauts Steve Wiebe and Billy Mitchell, a rivalry which became the subject of…

These teams have been meeting since 1953, but unfortunately this year’s matchup doesn’t quite have the same flair as in years past.

Election day 2012 is right around the corner, which means for the past weeks – no, months– no, year, both Republican and Democratic candidates have been stroking, praising, and pandering to all members of the voting-eligible public. It’s enough to make even a lowly 47 percenter feel like they’re in…
