When I first heard that game developer THQ would be coming out with a new shooter title that would feature a Korean occupation of the United States I did not think much of it, after all the market seemed to be flooded with similar titles, boy was I wrong. For a while now World War II was the setting for every FPS, it was easy to make and did not require any originality or decent story writing because we all get the story part of the game in grammar school.

But that time being separated from one of the most recognized franchises in the history of the world is about to change. Welcome to StarTrek Online (STO) where you as a player can take part in the universe that is Star Trek.

For those of you who’ve been outside of the gaming…

When trolling through the Internet, sometimes you see something that boggles the mind to the point that you say, “I simply have to experience the place that produced such absurdity.” Such is the case with Muscle March, which is apparently a new game being released for the Wii exclusively in Japan.

From the country that brought us such pop-culture absurdities as Silent Library and tentacle rape, comes a video game that defies all explanation.
