Rumble Box (2005) was my first successful video game. My senior project at DigiPen Institute of Technology, it went on to get over a quarter of a million downloads, complete with Braid and N at the IGF, and even show up in a museum.

If you can identify any of these games, I will eat it - box and all - for clout. So definitely don't identify them, unless you want them to get eaten.

Of course women don't like the Cybertruck.
Women only want one thing, and it's the DVD set of the short-lived 1992 Fox sitcom Down the Shore.

My favorite game that can't possibly be real is Minority Report for the GameCube.
The story: you are on trial for a murder you have not yet committed.
The gameplay: Shooter with state of the art ragdoll physics to ensure everybody you "don't kill" looks particularly dead after being shot.

Sega never shied away from weird games, like this 1988's hybrid top-down action-platformer UFO Senshi Yoko-chan, starring Japanese idol singer & TV star Yoko Minamino. Travel between pop culture universes fighting Godzilla, zombies and Loto from Dragon Quest

BeyondTheNES.com went into editing months ago, so it's been a long time since I've had the opportunity to create new content for it.
Due to an oversight in my tracking, I missed a game. So tonight, I'm making up for it with a full-page spread. Wanna guess what game it is?
