Top 5 Friday: Driving Games!

Friday, June 25th, 2010

Oh look! An open parking spot!

It’s time to take to the open road and let the top down with the best of AG’s driving games. Today’s Top 5 Friday showcases 5 games that should be able to get anybodies engine going. To be honest I would rather drive online then in real life for a couple of reasons. First off there is no real traffic in a game and if someone gets in your way you can always plow right through them with no injuries or over priced insurance claims to cover. Second, you can leave the road to cut a corner and no one cares! Finally the cops may pull you over or ram your vehicle till your car explodes but you never have to go to jail and you can alays start over and run away from them all over again!

Check out some our best driving games below and remember to keep it cool behind the wheel!

SKid MarK
Ready for some heavy kart racing? Pick a driver and race for the cup. Or, go for a few quick spins if you’re not ready for a racing career.

Drag Racer v3
Buy a car, tweak your setup, and head for the track. Drag against other contenders; see how far you can go!

Top 5 Friday: Games Starring Birds

Friday, June 11th, 2010

Birds. They can fly, they got feathers, and they used to be dinosaurs. Isn’t that enough? What else do you people want? Play these games and learn some respect for your avian cousins, you simian ground huggers.

Nuclear Eagle
One of the ugly facts of life is that baby wolves gotta eat too. In this online flying game, you play as a mother eagle – mother RADIOACTIVE eagle – caring for her baby chicks. And what do you feed giant nuclear eagle baby birds? That’s right: delicious humans! They’re fat and pretty easy to catch. Swoop down on unsuspecting apes and feed them to your hungry chillums!

Endless Migration
Ah, Canadian Geese. They’re big, they’re noisy, and they leave their goose crap everywhere. But they are also champion flyers. Through this online flying game, you lead a flock of geese on an…wait for it…Endless Migration. Acquire extra geese, especially the swans. Avoid the many aerial hazards, like thunderstorms and blimps. And, of course, you can Upgrade Your Goose. How awesome is that? In a perfect northbound Zen exercise, take flight with these gentle Canadian giants!

A Crow in Hell
An online flying game set in Hades? Tell me more! Mr. Crow has, through no fault of his own, been cast into the nether regions. You, mortal soul, must aid him in a return to the land of the living. Demons and frightening obstacles of course: that’s why they call it Hell. This game is hard, and scary. But surely saving the soul of one brave bird is worth the danger?

Learn to Fly
Penguins, as you may have heard, can’t fly. They swim like fishes, and waddle on land, but they don’t fly. Yet. In this online flying game, you become the Penguin with the Ambition, the Drive, the Determination to go where no penguin has gone before: airborne! Launch yourself skyward, do your best to land clean, and then purchase technology to overcome your natural tendency to drop like a stone.

Fowl Play
No matter how much you enjoy birds, once in a while, you need to rattle their cage. In this online flying game, turn the tables and give the pigeons a taste of their own medicine. Or to be more specific, you get to poop on the birds. Really. If you hate birds, this is the game for you. I won’t even tell you what happens if you fly into them…

P.S. The bird is the word!!!

Top 5 Friday: Great Games That Begin with the Letter G

Friday, June 4th, 2010

The Green Goddess of Games

Goodness Gracious! We love our letters, and G is a special case. Because you can pronounce it like “giant” or like “giggle.” Hard or soft, a fine letter. And it appears at the front end of some of our favorite games!

Grok these gracious and gruesome games, while contemplating the Seventh Letter. Can you uncover the secret message?



Get Off My Lawn

You punks! After all the time I spend grooming my grassy patch, these little creeps come to ruin my hard work! Fortunately, my power mower makes mincemeat of my little enemies in this online defense game. And, of course, the upgrade store fulfills all my bloodiest dreams…

Gimme Friction Baby

Friction provided free of charge! In this online shooting game, you need to destroy bubbles. How? By making bubbles, and smashing them together! Sounds easy-peasy, but the bubbles don’t pop quickly. You have to hit them over and over…

Gangsters War

When criminals get organized, blood is going to spill. This online strategy game pits the Russian Mafia against homegrown street gangs. Choose a gang and battle to control the city. But you better bring friends.

Game, Game, Game and again Game

Is it interactive art, or is it actually a game? The name isn’t helping here. Strap on your Artist Goggles and step into a nutty meta exploration. Online adventure games don’t get much more conceptual than this!

Greyhound Tycoon

In real life, greyhound racing is pretty sad. But that’s why we make games! In this online dog-racing simulator, a Happy Dog is a Fast Dog. You’ll need to pamper your prize hound to succeed. And don’t forget to check out the petting zoo!

Top 5 Friday: Games My Friends Play

Friday, May 14th, 2010
Hi Friend.  Whatcha' Playin'?

Hi Friend. Whatcha' Playin'?

What is the fun of gaming if you can’t share it with the ones you call your friends (facebook or otherwise).  Nothing, that is what!  The best part about logging into my AG profile is to see what my friends have been up to, who has beat my already high score or who wants to challenge me to a duel of the gaming variety.  So I said to my friends today, “Hey Friends! What is your favorite game on AddictingGames.com” and  they came up with this stellar list.

Sushi Cat - Dana works at Shockwave.com (and sits across from me) so she knows a thing or two about games.  She is also part Japanese so she knows a thing or two about Maneki Neko and this lovable cat. Play Dana’s favorite game and help Sushi Cat eat all the sushi so he can find his true love.

Bubble Tanks Tower Defense – My friend Morgan is a technical man.  He speaks a language I will never understand.  So it makes sense that he would love a game where you need to fend off your enimies by placing tower combinations to protect yourself.  Defend on, Morgan… defend on!

Full Moon – My cousin Kyle is one of the coolest dudes I know.  He is two years younger than me and about 2 feet taller. He is the type of guy you should listen to if for no other reason than his height. So when he says play “Full Moon” you should listen to him.

Bloxorz – My friend Kelly is very competitive and when I told her I was addicted to a game called Bloxorz she had to play and not only did she play she beat the game… before me.  She is the winner on this one but if anyone can beat this puzzling block game in less than a week I will crown you the winner.

Mort the Sniper – I know a guy named Bryan, who likes Mort the Sniper, who also just so happened to be our 10,000 fan on Facebook.  So here is a quick shoutout to him being both a friend of mine and friend of AG!

Now that you know what my friends play, you should ask your friends what they like to play.  It might be a game you already love or one you’ve never heard of (we have over 3,000 free games so that is possible).  As always, keep gaming and stay classy.
