Modded Xbox 360 with red L.E.D lights selling on Ebay

Xbox Ebay scam

This may be the third dumbest thing that I’ve ever seen on Ebay — first being the state of West Virginia, and second being someone’s eternal soul in a jar — a “modded” Xbox 360 Elite with red lights. This can’t the red ring of death people, this has to be the REAL DEAL! Hell, it even currently selling for a mere $35, and $8 shipping and handling with only 1 bid. How the hell could you pass this up?

BestBuy — You Just Pwned Yourself

July 2, 2010 Business
bestbuy - thanks for living up to the corporate stereotype

Have you ever seen those XtraNormal videos on YouTube? The videos that put two 3D animated characters in a dialog, to a script that you write yourself, with computer generated voices. Well, as the picture that you see indicates, one of these videos got BestBuy Employee, 25 year old, Brian Maupin fired. The video displays a character who REALLY wants an iPhone 4, and is obviously an iPhone fangirl. She is talking to the store clerk about it who lets her know that they are all out, but it seems that this girl just won’t have it. You’ll have to watch the video.

The long anticipated version of the greatest blogging platform has been released. Wordpress 3.0 “Thelonious” is truly a sight for sore eyes. I’ve never worked on a platform that I thought could beat Wordpress, and now with 3.0, the other guys have some work to do. The interface is less cluttered, and has a load of new features that will kill the competition.

PlayStation Move — E3 2010 Coverage

June 16, 2010 Tech
PlayStation-Move-Motion

This is the PlayStation Move, another big step for motion gaming. It uses the PlayStation Eye to track the controller(s) so that they move exactly with the game. I don’t yet have a PS3 (yet, I’ve been close to broke for months), but this would be a great reason to get one. Each of the systems is bringing some great motion control to itself (or in the Wii’s cas, it already has), but the PlayStation Move is taking a more hardcore gaming approach to it.

Nintendo 3DS

Here it is, the Nintendo 3DS! It’s 100% official. This may be the greatest thing to hit the portable gaming market in years jest because it sounds almost un-real. I thought it was pretty amazing when I first saw a system that small render 3D graphics, but now we’re seeing a handheld in real 3D […]

Xbox 360 slim

Yes, this is it, Microsoft’s big announcement, the new, slimmer, sleeker, black, Xbox 360. It packs a 250gb hard drive (new shape), and a built in wireless card (something that the Wii and PS3 both had already). I really like the design, it matches Kinect very well. The new Xbox 360 is available today!

Can we shut up about Apple for at least a week?

May 3, 2010 Tech
iPhone HD - gizmodo

Since the beginning of this year all we have heard about is Apple. Apple this, and Apple that. And you know, It’s getting kinda old. I like Apple’s products, but I don”t think they’ve not been in the news since the iPad announcement. Hearing about Apple in the news is about as likely as Justin Bieber trending on Twitter. It’s going to happen.

Internet Explorer 6, STOP USING IT!

April 30, 2010 Tech

I’ve been looking at the site stats, and I’m seeing that one of the more popular browsers that is visiting the site is Internet Explorer 6. Normally this wouldn’t bother me, but when I saw the actual numbers I got angry. Tell me people, why are you using such an outdated, featureless, soulless, tabless browser!?
