If you’re a Fallout 3 gamer then you’ll likely know that the Pip-Boy 3000 is the wrist-mounted computer used to deliver game stats. A collectible clock version of the computer was included as part of the Fallout 3 Survival Edition set, and that’s just what one enterprising modder chose to gut and stuff his iPod touch inside.

Today at the last MacWorld expo Phil Schiller started off with details on the newest installment of iLive, iLive 09. The first portion that was announced is the addition of more “events” in iPhoto such as Faces. This feature uses face recognition to identify people in photos and then pick that particular person out of photos in your album. You can also create an auto-corkboard of people in which you can then tag people to identify who they are. From there you can confirm the different people that Faces finds for you.
If you’re a true audiophile, these headphones might not be for you. But if you just want something to enjoy your music while on the go and want to reflect a bit of your personal style in the process, check out these customizable headphones from iFrogz.
The Earpollution line of headphones allow you to create your own custom items.

If you’re like many gamers out there, you’re anxiously awaiting the release of Fallout 3, Bethesda’s latest offering, then you’ll be glad to hear the time is almost here. The game is set to be released tomorrow, October 28th, but you can get your hands on the game earlier than most by attending one of the midnight releases.
A few Best Buy locations will open their doors tonight at midnight to let happy gamers purchase the game for immediate playing. This game is hotly anticipated, and for good reason. It’s full of story, great graphics, interesting decision-making and more.
Much anticipated Xbox 360 game Fallout 3 has already appeared on BitTorrent and Usenet file sharing sites, three weeks in advance of its official release. The 6.52GB file requires a modified Xbox 360 to run; currently there’s no sign of the PC or PS3 versions of the title for download. Early figures suggest 2,500 gamers on one BitTorrent portal alone have already downloaded Fallout 3.
Fallout 3 is a game that is seriously anticipated. And while it used to only be available on PCs, it will now, for the first time, be available on the Xbox 360 as well. That development spells DRM issues and Bethesda developer, Pete Hines attempted to set the record straight during an interview with Shack News.
Is there really any reason to pre-order most games except to get yourself some swag? I rarely have trouble finding a game on release day unless it’s something crazy-big, and even then it usually just takes wandering into Walmart or Meijer and grabbing it. So what crazy free goodies are you going to get for pre-ordering Fallout 3 at GameStop? You’ll be getting 5 free tracks from the game.
When you know that a major game will be coming out, you’ll usually wait around for a demo to come out a short while before the actual game does. You’ll usually get enough of a taste of the game to leave you wanting more, and thus play it over and over. However, if you’re hoping for a demo of Fallout 3, you can stop, because it isn’t happening.
When you play a game, you expect there to be one ending. (No, throwing your controller through the TV in frustration does not count as an ending). Sure, some games do give you a chance to experience different endings based on the choices you make throughout the game. However, even in these games you’re limited to a few at best. Not Fallout 3 though, it’s got more ways to finish than you can shake a stick at.
According to a recent podcast with Bethesda’s Todd Howard, there are more than 200 possible endings. No, that’s not a typo, there really are two zeros on that number.
Ever so slowly Harmonix has been releasing tracks for the upcoming Rock Band title. Well they’ve finally spilled the beans on all of the main tracks. That’s not to say that there aren’t some bonus tracks still waiting to be announced, but as far as the main songs go, the entire list is after the jump.
