Google Maps Goes 8-bit!
If you haven’t noticed, Google Maps on the computer has the option of going 8-bit for those who want to check it out, especially those who have an affinity for old school/retro graphics! All you need to do is to click the icon in the top right and switch it to Quest!
[UPDATE: APRIL 2, 2012] It seems this 8-bit feature has been taken off Google Maps after the weekend and was one of those April Fools jokes. It was a pretty neat feature to have. I’m hoping Google puts it back into their Maps function as a fun way to go about using their maps even though 8-bit maps may not be something that will be used every time someone looks up a location or directions.

Chrono Cross!!!
Well I just picked up a copy of Chrono Cross from a local games store and I’ll see if this thing works or is just another dud. It’s been a while since I’ve been looking for a copy at a local shop so hopefully it works at destroying what’s left of my social life. Now to take care of the rest of the workday and dig out my PS2 from under my mess…
