Indie game developers, such as ourselves, are often the best source of fresh ideas into this giant smorgasbord of entertainment we call the games industry. To see the best examples of ingenious design and newfangled gameplay, check out this great list counting down the Top 50 Indie Games (http://www.tigsource.com/features/games1-10.html?source=videogames).

This time, hollywood has gone too far. Their quest for fresh ideas has finally lead them into the realm of desktop games. Presenting: THE MINESWEEPER (http://kotaku.com/gaming/clips/minesweeper-the-movie-286639.php)!

Are you a geek? No... You don't even compare now unless you also have a periodic table of the elements (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/45/149500684_b7084f5aee.jpg) tattooed on your forearm. Geeky Tattoos (http://www.scienceblogs.com/loom/2007/08/06/branded_with_science.php)!

What would they do about it? Like they couldn't tell you to throw it out or put it away...

Seriously, this is just a list of 50 things so we don't have time to find and kill Xgen.

Mostly memorized, although I have to look up obscure elements or if I need the atomic weight to the 4th decimal place.

Minesweeper movie was gold.

"WHY ARE YOU HERE, SOLDIER?"
"I'M HERE TO MAKE THIS FIELD SAFE!"
"WHY ARE YOU HERE, SOLDIER?"
"I'M HERE BECAUSE I'M BORED!"
"And don't you forget that."

@Espo: KoL gets annoying after a while. Too repetitive.
