Imagine a kid kicking the back of your seat for 2000 miles. You'd ford an unusually high river too, just for spite.
Tech Buzz Wait a tick! They were secretly forcing us to learn! Through fun! Great, now I'll be spending the rest of my day trying to find an emulator that isn't secretly a Trojan.

Did the Oregon Trail really go through Los Angeles?
People will look for any reason to break up the routine of their day-to-day lives. Including dying of dysentery.

It's just like the old Oregon Trail. Except with Zombies. Yes, you can still get dysentery.
RIP Poop Face. Finally a video game movie adaptation that stays true to its roots.
What if Scorpion and Sub-Zero had to hunt for food in Oregon Trail? Here's a mash-up of the two awesome classic games.

Tech Buzz Pretty soon your iPhone will resemble your 3rd grade classroom. IGN sneakily posted some screens yesterday, and holy rattlesnakes does this game look cartoony or what?!

McSweeney's examines the natural disappointment of a father who discovers his son plays Oregon Trail like a total wuss. “How many spare wagon wheels do you think Michael Phelps takes with him?” Words to live by.
Culture Buzz Forget the horse and buggy, dysentery, and the whole Oregon thing. Thule Trail is a modern day remake of the classic game Oregon Trail. In Thule Trail you travel from Chicago to Santa Barbara to attend the Atlantis Music Festival. Choose from a SUV or Hybrid, hunt for tacos (you really shoot packages of tacos,) and boost morale by buying magazines and CD’s. Good luck.
