Lately, I’ve been playing my PS3 quite a bit. But aside from UFC 2009: Unleashed, I haven’t been playing titles built for the system. No, I’ve been dropping $5 or $10 here and there and replaying classic PSOne titles. For $9.99, you can download games like Resident Evil: Director’s Cut and Final Fantasy VII and play them in all their ...

Normally, when you think of Vizio, you think of decent plasma and LCD television sets that cost about half the price of a Sony BRAVIA. Now there’s even more incentive to run out and buy a Vizio: web apps. The company announced that it’ll be bringing Facebook, Twitter and plenty of others to its new line of Vizio XVT HDTVs. ...

I know, I know. Taco trucks rule. You don’t have to thank me. Thank @likeomg on Twitter. There’s seven different models to print out and fold up on Goopymart’s Flickr page. Too bad you can’t print out miniature tacos and empanadas to go along with the trucks. Link (Thanks, @likeomg)

Oh boy. This chart is just TOO GOOD not to post. It shows how long it took Apple to roll out 50,000 applications on its App Store (about 10 months) and compares that to Palm’s turtle-esque growth. After more than ten years, the Palm OS (not to be confused with the Pre’s WebOS) had only ~29,000 apps. What does that ...

Look, I love Apple as much as the next guy does, but this is ridiculous. The press and bloggers are becoming rabid paparazzi as they demand to know every detail about Steve Jobs’ life. I mean look as this shit on Techmeme. Is this seriously the biggest news out there? That a hospital tried to keep the identity of one ...

Right around the time Windows Vista came out, Microsoft was engaged in a PR campaign where they would give a blogger an Acer laptop loaded with Vista (see above picture) and not ask for it back. Free laptops mean good reviews, right? The whole thing blew up in Microsoft’s face, so in mid-2009, you’d think it’d learn its lesson, right? ...

While I’m not sure we can call this the coolest beanie we’ve ever seen (because let’s be honest, we’ve seen some really awesome beanies), it’s definitely the only one that would make you feel at home inside of a fantasy novel. The homemade Magic Unicorn Beanie gives the wearer a new phallic member and a generous mane of purpleish pink ...

It’s still burning like a mother, but it’s so worth it. What could be better than Mario and the Jedi mashed together?� It’s like, my childhood in one awesomely sexy package. What sort of geeky tats have you been looking into?

Anyone who has witnessed the now infamous “2 Girls, 1 Cup” video will never be the same. Trust me, you’ll know what I’m talking about if you’ve seen it or even just heard about it. This vehicle immortalizes the meme through the majesty of skateboard design. Here is the description from the Flick image: My son bought a new skateboard ...
