Funny News: The 'Other' Games of Poker: 5 Card Draw

December 20, 2006: The 'Other' Games of Poker: 5 Card Draw

Whether it was at your Grandma's kitchen table, in your neighbor's smoky, beer-drenched basement, or behind the bleachers at St. Patrick Junior High School, 5 card draw was the first poker game most of us learned to play. Back when Chris Moneymaker and Daniel Negreanu were still in diapers, draw poker was the game du jour and Southern California's card rooms were its thriving epicenter. These days, one is more likely to hear the phrase "draw is dead." However, with the addition of 5 card draw ring games on Poker Stars and other rooms, this old-fashioned form of poker is gaining new life online.

Mario Hoops 3-on-3 Reviewed (Nintendo DS) FunnyGames, October 1, 2006
Finding new sports for Mario Bros to take up is getting seriously tricky. Let's see what out favorite Italian stereotype has left to play, shall we? How about "Mario Angling"? That might be fun, but we'll save that one for the Wii-mote. "Donkey Kong Zorbing"? Nah, too much like Super Monkey Ball. Ok, got it: "Princess Peach Buzkashi Party".

After you've waited through your hundredth highlight, you'll want to just be able to turn replays off. And hey! Guess what? You can't.

But you can always turn on the "rent" option. Super Mario Bros Hoops is a decent, little game that's a bit too decent and way too little. It's good for a laugh or two, but it fails to capture the fast-paced fun factor of previous Mario sports titles. Super Mario Bros Caber Toss, here I come!

Unreal Tournament 2007 FunnyGames, July 26, 2006
Not that we were the least bit worried that we'd seen the last of Unreal Tournament, but finally seeing the next game in the franchise up and running really set our hearts aflutter. Along with the updated name come a brand new engine, new game modes, new weapons, new characters, and plenty more ways to blow up your friends...

...When we last saw Unreal Tournament 2007, it was looking pretty damn slick. Smooth graphics, tons of explosions, nifty new weapons. We had very little qualms with the game. Over the past year, it's clear that a lot more work has gone into the game, as it's looking better than ever...
