With everyone away at CES, someone has to hold down the fort and cover the more underground creations that likely will never make their way to the large conventions. This Les Paul mod is definitely one of a kind and unique enough for me to check my bank account and sigh with defeat.
You have to love those crafty gamers. They don’t just toil away on games all day, they actually utilize a craft and show their love of games through it. Making the rest of us just look a bit on the lazy side. Well, even if you don’t have that crafty gene, you can carry around one of these pouches with pride.
So the Wii obviously has motion sensitivity, in facts that’s just about the only way to play the system, and then there is the PS3 that has motion sensitivity even though its not used near as much as the Wii, that leaves the 360 as the only system without motion sensitivity. That’s not entirely a bad thing as I would assume that leaving out the motion sensitivity makes it easier for game developers to make great games based on the same old standards that have worked for years.
So the Xbox finally got its hands dirty with the DMC franchise and now in an effort to entice Japanese gamers to pick up the console they are offering a similar bundle as Sony will be offering with the PS3. Essentially it’s a normal 360 with an HDMI port and a copy of the game in the box.
Some Swedish students made this case mod for a class where they were given a $300 budget. That means the actual PC components must suck, but the case is hella cool.
So you think the Wii is cool because you can wave around a controller and that’s how you play the games, that’s crap compared to what Sega is working on with NeuroSky. They are working on making it possible to play games with your brain, that’s right, your thoughts.
The original Charge Base for PS3 charged four controllers and costs a bit more than this one, I don’t know about you, but I don’t have 4 controllers sitting around. In fact I can’t even remember the last time I played a game with 3 other people, so a Charge Base with only two charging slots for a little less coin might be better fitted.
So the base is the Millennium Falcon, and the actual joystick is the hilt of a lightsaber, the only thing that could make this joystick controller cooler is a Yoda bobble-head on the top of the joystick. This is one of those games that you connect directly to your TV and the games are all preloaded inside the controller.
I will never understand the need to turn gaming controllers into plush, however, here is yet another converted into a plush little pillow. This isn’t just any Guitar Hero controller, it’s the Wii controller.
Sometimes even gamers need to look nice, you can’t wear those quirky tees all the time. If you’re stuck in an office all day, you need that one bit of rebellion to remind you of who you really are. These cuff links are a nice enough quality to blend into any environment.
