I didn't see this site mentioned in earlier threads, and I'm sure a kindly moderator will lock me up if it has:

http://www.mega64.com

These kids need to be on G4, stat.

The intro video has a great scene inspired by Frogger, while the Shenmue clip is comedy gold all the way through. I'll never again be able to take seriously the videogame act of talking to strangers.

These vidoes are outstanding! It could easily replace half of g4's programming!

This is offically revived.

Ok, the site obviously isn't for everyone, and all of the videos are pretty ha-ha instead of bust-a-gut.

Except for Tetris. I literally cried laughing. The sheer absurdity of a random L block at Target is goddamn brilliant.

I have the DVDs, good stuff. Hopefully more will be out sometime soon.

Very much MST3K inspired, and they were on G4 once, in the background of the screen savers, but didn't get to do anything. They were told to "play whatever computer game they wanted", they started playing solitaire / messing around in paint. There's stuff about it in the photos section on their site, rather amusing.

Plus they got power ranger toys in the show, always a plus.

I almost cried the first time I saw the shenmue clip. I was just kind of ha-haing most of it until the end where he gets slammed in the face with the soccer ball like 5 times and then just drops.....ahh man I lol thinking about it.

wow the tetris one was pretty funny. the mgs one seemed like it was staged during that little coffee shop scene, which makes it kind of corney. other then the tetris one, it seems like they are trying to hard to be funny.

The stuff on the site are just clips from the "experiment" parts of the show, Mega 64 does actually have a storyline, so the clips by themselves can seem slightly off. They're also longer in the show, they took out anything relating to plot I think.
