Worst Golf Scores Or Worst Video Game? You Decide
There's no doubt in my mind today's recommendation should be the world's worst video game, Cheetahmen II, because if you decide to play video games instead of finding out what happens in the British Open, you deserve to play something horrible. The story behind this is that 1,500 copies of the unrel...

TV Or Command Line Baseball? You Make The Call
Aside from the British Open, you're probably best not watching TV unless your son/cousin/girlfriend is playing in any of the televised games.

I have seen the future of reality TV, and it is Hurl! You may have already heard of this show, which debuts on G4 July 15: Contestants gorge themselves, competitive eating-style, and then are placed on devices such as a mechanical bull to see who will throw up last.
