Bioshock Trailer


Another amazing Xbox 360 game trailer. These games make you say Playstation what... I am really glad I held onto my 360 right now. This game was made by the same good people who made Systemshock 2 for the PC years ago. That was a groudbreaking game in it's time. Once again click here for the HD goodness version.

Fly By Wire


Imagine strapping yourself into a streamlined hyper-fan rocket that's suspended from high-tension wire strung between two mountain peaks in New Zealand. You control the throttle and steer the vehicle, but we can't imagine there's a whole lot of guidance involved. It's $96 for a 25-minute ride. - gizmodo
Check out the original story at Gizmodo for more pics. This would be so much fun.

Don Ross - Brooke's Waltz


Don Ross is one of my favorite acoustic guitar players and I just found a ton of videos of him on YouTube! This guy is sick with talent.

The Apple iTV remote

Original story can be foundhere.
After hearing some chatter about the Ruwido VEXO remote control being a doppelganger of Apple’s forthcoming iTV’s remote control, I found an industry source who confirmed that Apple’s iTV remote will look just like this:

VEXO is an echo of previous and current Apple products: stylish innovation with a minimalist design (not a single button) that puts it far outside the confines of your everyday remote control.

USB AirSoft Turret Mows Down Office Mates


Where else but the good ole US of A would we revel in crafting items that not only utilized that oh-so-lonely USB port on the rear of your leased laptop, but had the potential to "deliver welts" to unsuspecting co-workers? While the pre-packaged USB missile launchers are quite the novel desk adornment, this DIY job seriously brings the heat (and the pain). While the modder responsible here envisions a more robust, costly, and dangerous version in the future, his 1.0 edition features a $19 electronic AirSoft gun, the turret base from an aforementioned USB missile launcher, super glue, and the usual compliment of assembly tools. After disassembling the launcher and tapping into its base, a bit of fancy wire work is required to affix the more powerful AirSoft gun to the rotating turret. A few more screws and finagling, and you're all set to demolish the fun at your annual holiday bash, all for just around $70 and a few hours of your time. -engadget

Awesome....

When good toys go bad


It's supposed to say sweet things to little girls like, "You're a wonderful friend," but push its button the wrong way and the Little Mermaid Shimmering Lights Ariel doll may say something else — "You're a slut," according to a California mother whose allegation came to light in a newspaper report.

Herrera said she discovered the fluke when her 3-year-old daughter, Juliana, was pressing the button quickly so she could skip the phrases and get to the melody. Instead of just moving to the song, Herrera said her daughter got the wrong message. "I was in absolute shock," said Herrera, "especially after my daughter repeated it." -abcnews

The Hug Shirt


Ok file this under "What the heck...." It's a shirt with spots on it. When you send a text to your loved one with your phone it puts pressure on the shirt acting like a hug. I just can't see this taking off.

Assassin's Creed X06 Onstage Demonstration



This game looks amazing on so many levels. The way the character moves is very believable and most importantly the crowd reactions are great. These type of games are what make "nextgen" really feel "nextgen". Can't wait to play it. If you have the bandwidth and wanna see the HD version go here.
