Fake Video Games is a Tumblr blog dedicated to video games that are too ridiculous to exist in the real world. While there are a lot of silly video games in the world already, none are quite as odd as "Retail Manager 13" and "Ja Rule's Rap Factory."
The games on Fake Video Games range from ridiculous ("Crab Warz") to clever ("Suburban Skating"). Gamers will especially love how each title represents a moment in time, as in the Nintendo DS was known for its odd games and the earliest PlayStation titles were pretty strange in their own right. You don't have to be a gamer to appreciate the ridiculousness of Fake Video Games as each title is overtly funny.
