A long time ago someone, Chris Hilgert, decided that a yeti should torture some poor penguins. It all started with an ice bat, flying penguins, and of course..the Yeti! Don't have a clue what I'm talking about? Then read on and let me expound upon Yeti Sports.

These articles aren't meant to always be the latest and greatest in Flash Gaming. They are aimed to perhaps remind you of some games you might have forgotten or show you some games that might have slipped by or to tell you about the games we have been playing lately here at Generation: Gamerz.

But therein lies the problem: its all been done before.

In detox because you miss the Contra era side-scrollers of old? Well my friends go get your fix at ArcadePod.
