A PSP for Christmas

Well, my house is now rich by one gaming gadget today.
I bought my son the PSP Madden ‘09 limited edition bundle as a Christmas gift. The shiny blue finish is really beautiful and, in my opinion, quite manly. Being the gadget freak that I am, I just couldn’t leave the PSP be without tinkering [...]

After the success of Dead Space, I’m not surprised that EA have decided to take us on another horror jaunt that will include some rather terrifying images and interesting action. This time though, inspiration for the game comes from the literary imaginings of Dante.
An abducted soul, a lifetime of sins, a journey to the [...]

The Xbox 360 is continuing to show its steady and impressive sales for the month of November.
Despite the financial crisis, Microsoft was still able to sell 836,000 units for the month, amounting to an 8.6 percent increase from last year’s sales.
What’s pushing the 360 to enjoy brisk sales are its strong marketing and advertising [...]

Ahhh… warm toes! :)

Oh man, do I need this like yesterday! With winter and a blizzard coming tonight, even the floors are too cold to walk on… and I’m wearing my skids! Wisconsin weather is no joke these days as the temperature has gone down below zero most of the time.
“Toasty Toes is adjustable, [...]

Dual-screen Thinkpad W700

I used to own a Thinkpad T-series before I got my Macbook. Being a former Thinkpad user I’d say it was one of the most solid mobile-PC platform I’ve used in my short 20-year career as a computer geek. Now browsing across Engadget I found out that Thinkpad has recently developed a dual-screen [...]

PS3s used as supercomputers

The Playstation 3 has been used for other purposes other than gaming because of the potentially powerful Cell process. In fact, Folding@Home is a standard “feature” of the console. This is Stanford University’s project for researching cures for many types of diseases. Folding@Home uses the unused processing power of the PS3 to simulate protein folding. [...]

Miniature Cube Speaker

Well, look here… I think this is a real cool stocking stuffer! This is a mini-cube speaker, and mini sure does land it dead spot doesn’t it. It’s almost as big as an iPod shuffle as you can see. Made by a Japanese company, Bird Electronics, this small wonder measures only 45 [...]

Wireless Illuminated Super Tiny Keyboard

I’ve seen illuminated keyboards before and while they’re nice to look at I see the wires needed to keep them lit. This is the first time I’m seeing a wireless (via radio frequency) & illuminated super tiny keyboard (boy that was a mouthful!).
It is really small though, weighing only less than 150 [...]

More details on Guitar Hero: Metallica

Yesterday I wrote about Pearl Jam’s Ten album becoming a DLC for Rock Band 2 this coming March. That’s really big news considering how huge that album is.
Guitar Hero is not going to take things sitting down though as it recently gave more information on its upcoming Guitar Hero: Metallica game.
In an interview [...]



Reading through my previous posts, I think it is pretty apparent that I have taken Microsoft to task for the shoddy quality of the Xbox 360. I am not in any way a loyal PS3 or Wii user but with money so tight right now, I won’t spring for a console that has a more [...]

Christmas is nearing and most of us gadget geeks are likely to be eyeing a new gadget to gift ourselves (or someone near our hearts). But this year end is also a time to look back at what the current year has given us–in terms of gadgets.
This year, I was able to buy a laptop, [...]

Pearl Jam’s Ten to get Rock Band treatment

Pearl Jam may not be as popular today as they did in their heyday during the 90’s but I still think that they’re one of the best bands in the world.
I loved playing some of the Pearl Jam songs that have managed to enter the music genre, first with the added content for Guitar [...]



GTA for the DS coming this March

The Nintendo DS has gained a reputation for wholesome games that are fit for children. Being a hardcore DS owner I know that the DS offers a much more varied gameplay experience but only suffers from a lack of mature titles.
But this coming March, this is going to be remedied with the release of Grand [...]
