Well, I doubt that this gorilla at the San Francisco Zoo was actually playing Donkey Kong, as the planets rarely align in such a perfect way.

Ed Fries, former VP of Microsoft’s game publishing division returns to his roots in more ways than one with Halo 2600. In fact, the game was actually released in cartridge form for a very limited run of 500 at the recent Classic Gaming Expo in Las Vegas.
That Halo cartridge will surely be a collectible, but the good news is that you can play all 64 rooms of the game online right now at Code Mystics. Check out a pic of the cartridge after the break.

From Nerd Approved… If you ever want to know what “patience” and “dedication” look like, check out the music video for “8-Bit Trip”, a song by Swedish band Rymdreglage. The video was created as a stop-motion nod to retro video games made entirely from Lego. The video took over 1,500 hours to complete, and required each Lego-constructed character to be moved individually, then photographed. Check out the video and additional behind the scenes photos after the break.
