FamiMat Video
Konami has featured the FamiMat on their Video News. The clip shows people using the FamiMat, how it connects to the television, and what the screen display looks like. For those that don't remember the FamiMat, it is a home version of Dance Dance Revolution that doesn't require a game console. It's purpose it to get people exercising, and it counts calories while you play (similar to the Diet mode on home versions of DDR).

We're Back Up!
TGL.com went down a few days ago because we used up our limit of 30GB of bandwidth. Most of that bandwidth was used to download the Captain Jack video. Sooo, to prevent that from happening again, I am taking the video offline. If you are new to the site and want to download it, email me, ICQ me (25787737) or send me an IM (TempuraX).
