FREE FAST FIVE: RIO TAKEOVER RACING GAME

Twitter
 As part of the promotion for the upcoming release of the new Fast and Furious franchise, "Fast Five" they have a free online racing game Fast Five: Rio Takeover which could be a fun distraction for a fan or someone into racing games.  You use the the arrow keys to drive and the space bar to drift.  The graphics are adequate but if you are an avid video gamer (I am not, but my son used to be) they are less hyper-real than current video games that you can buy.  On this game you just play for fun, not prizes.

As part of the promotion on the Official website there is an option to follow on Twitter  and tweet specific things when indicated for a chance to win $50 instantly, IMAX tickets or a $500 grand prize or follow on Facebook and earn badges and points.

Space Invaders Cupcakes

Space Invaders was one of the first games that ever came out on a personal home video system and I remember playing it on my brother's Atari and at the time, it was cutting edge stuff.

I guess that is why I got excited when I saw these over these cool Space Invader cupcakes.  These are by user Nosin over at Cut Out And Keep.
