We’ve been doing so many reviews for gadgets and games that we wanted to try something a little new: toys! And who better to lend us a set than Kidrobot, who not too long ago set us up with a pretty snazzy Dunny giveaway. Let us know if this is something you’d like to see more or less of in the future. — Our review the Totem Doppleganger 3-pack after the break!
How often do we see dancing games as gamers and are like, “dude, I could finally learn how to dance in the privacy of my own home!” Well, this little dude shows you that it is possible, and also shatters all your hopes in one fell swoop — playing Dance Central in his local Microsoft Store and putting on a show, playing Disturbia on hard mode.
When you think about a Social Network user, you think “pffff, he can’t have any real friends besides the internet!” but a recent survey found that the majoroity of Social Network users are actually much more social in the real world than the average joe. I guess socially obliged people have a natural need to be connected with friends all the time, and this shows in the infographic after the break!
An interesting turn of events has happened; Sony is pushing back the release of their much hyped portable system, the PS Vita — the PSP’s worthy successor. It was first announced at E3 that the Vita would be coming to North America and Japan this holiday season at two price points: $249 for WiFi, and $299 for the 3G model. Has the recent, dramatic price cut by Nintendo to their 3DS system thrown a wrench into the Sony machine? — More after the break!
To say that Catherine is one strange beast would be an understatement. The newest game from the aclaimed publisher Atlus, and the development team that brought you the Persona series, takes large strides forward and many steps backwards throughout our protagonist’s journey to win the hearts of Catherine or Katherine. The story itself is easily the high point of our game, with some interesting twists and turns as it progresses. Even the gameplay feels really different from your average title as your put to the test climbing immense towers of blocks by pushing and pulling them into positions to make stairways. It’s generally a good time and, while there can be a large amount of frustration, I really enjoyed my time with Catherine. — Our full review after the break!
One of the crazier ideas out there, but non the less fascinating — transmitting data via suble flickers of a lightbulb, too quick for the human eye to see. We don’t know if it’s literally a fiesable technology to use for transmitting data, but we sure know that we need more fresh thinkers in the tech world like Harald Haas… badass name by the way…
As you probably know, there are many browsers available like Safari, Internet Explorer, Opera and Chrome. They all have something in common — they are designed for the everyman, the non-tech savvy consumer — they are simple, fast and lightweight with big buttons and simple layouts, but we are geeks and we need control. Mozilla Firefox was built for us with the power we need with all sorts of buttons and boxes strewn all over the screen and Addons galore. Firefox was big, bad, ugly and we loved it — but it looks like that’s about to change.
