5 Great online games

on 10/7/08
Looking for a game to play but don't feel like spending half an our on Mario Kart or getting ties up in a conversation in Halo. Well, you could go outside and play a sport and get exercise but if you don't have anyone to play with there only one other option. The computer. You could search endless game sites and never find an actual fun game. So I have compiled a list of some fun, fast, and simple online games.

1.Desktop Tower Defense 1.5
If you like games that make you think and strategise than this is the game for you. In this game you must set up little doodle towers to defeat endless lines of little doodle "creeps."
You can play it at http://www.kongregate.com/games/preecep/desktop-tower-defense-1-5

2.Bubble Wrap
Well, this game is, popping bubble wrap. Plain and simple, yet oddly addicting. This is a great stress reliever, so if you're freaking out over a test or late paperwork you might want to turn on your computer and pop some bubbles.

3.GeoWars
If you like games like Star Fox then you'll love GeoWars. GeoWars puts you in command of a red triangle that can shoot tiny shapes at enemies. Your enemies are shapes of all kinds, from green squares to blue "triangle things". I wouldn't recommend this for your geometry homework though. You can play it at http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/390712

4.Kaleidoscope Reef
If you like puzzle game such as I Spy then this is the game for you. It has beautiful hand drawn images and has underlying environmental theme. In this game you must use your mouse to direct coral seed to the correct spot so they stick, then you must direct different colored algae to form them into coral. All the while fending of evil predators that will steal your coral. You can play it at http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/461413

5.Gravitee
I don't really know who would lie this game because almost everyone likes it. Gravitee is a mix of golf and an astronomy/math lesson. You must guide a ball through a hoop by entering the magnetic fields of other planets. You must be carefu of Sunes that wil toast your ball and of the varying strengths of magnetic feilds of planets. As you progress you can build your own levels and customize your ball. You can play it at http://www.kongregate.com/games/FunkyPear/gravitee


What New at Nintendo


So, Nintendo's been a tad quiet lately, or at least apart from leaking new s of a new DS and Wii.

The new DS has been confirmed. Nintendo has decided to take on the Sony PSP and add a music player to the mix. It is also adding a camera so you will be able take a photo of your real dog while playing with a Nintendog. With the release of the 3rd generation PSP in November Nintendo has decided to "step up the game." Don't get to excited though, the new DS won't appear in the US until at least next year.

There are also rumors of a new Wii. The working title for th next generation Wii is the Wii HD. As you can tell from the name, Nintendo has decided to focus more on the graphics this time. After all, the Wii is only about the size of the Xbox 360 HDDVD attachment. There will also be focus more on the hardware and less on the console, as with the previous Wii. Again, don't get excited, the Wii Hd won't come out until at least 2011.
