Start praying, right now, that your boss is a gamer. Because if not, your Banpresto Famicon Controller Business Card Holder might not have the impression you were hoping for. Needless to say, this case isn’t going to work for every career. Lawyers and doctors would likely be better off with a nice leather case, or at least something with a bit more class. But if you’re in the tech, internet or art industry, I don’t see why you can’t rock... Continue reading

All of you gamers are likely all too familiar with this situation. It’s 3 a.m., you’ve got class in the morning, but the gaming bug has bitten you on the ass and will not let go. So what do you do? Just repeat to yourself “Just one more level… one more level…” Yeah, keep telling yourself that. A gaming hangover is still a hangover. If you’ve made this promise to yourself more times than you can count, this shirt could... Continue reading

Using the same uber-macho color scheme as the Battle-Rig Gamer Desk, the Corner V1 Computer Desk looks more like a drum set for one of those Rock Band games, with its circular mini-shelves and arm rests. The Vision One isn’t all bravado. It brings the noise, literally. Fully optimized for 2.1 speaker support, the Vision One offers space for two speakers and a woofer. What we really love about it is the designated spots to rest your arms as you... Continue reading

The King of Gamer Mods, Ben Heck, has returned to his triumphant days of Atari hacking. Known in the past for this Atari portables and other gaming mods, such as this one-handed Xbox controller, Ben Heck is back with a brand new Atari portable, this time for the 2600. Running off of 6 batteries, the new Atari portable now has paddle controls, which Heck’s past mods never included. I’m really liking that little wood paneling too. Nice addition. Now, to...

This multi-functional furniture/personal workstation is a perfect piece of gear for a gamer’s home (compared to the best piece of head-to-head gaming system or this gaming system for quadriplegics). The Battle-Rig Pro allows you to sit in the center of the action, with all you need right around you. The Battle-Rig provides plenty of space for all your equipment and you can even choose the color of the desk to match your decor. Even better, it doesn’t look like an... Continue reading

Gamer-mod scientist Ben Hack is at it again, this time with a mod that slightly pains us. You might remember his mod in which he connected a PS2 controller into a PSP. In this venture, he strays slightly from the Sony gaming realm and takes the innards of a PS3 Sixaxis controller, and transplants it into the casing of a Xbox wireless controller. It feels very odd seeing the Playstation controls and logo on a Xbox console controller. It actually... Continue reading

Some geek out there really doesn’t want us to buy an Xbox 360, and they aren’t afraid to throw it in our faces either. While one of the game store owners was distracted, over-zealous gamer Dustin Wilson took a white marker and wrote the words “Buy a Wii instead!” on the three Xbox display boxes in the window of the store. The antic is an entry to the EvWiiWhere Challenge, a contest for Wii fans to show the word Wii... Continue reading

When I play The Sims, I can’t help but feel a bit envious. Here they are, completely fictional characters with absolutely no care in the world. I envy them because they more often than not are in much better financial status than I am. The Sims Visa Card will just throw that fact in our faces even more blatantly. Over at The Sims website you can vote for your favorite design. The winning design will have its own designated spot... Continue reading

Elder gamer website IStillPlayGames.com has a cool gallery of photos of people standing next to their Wii Mii characters. There’s also a few children thrown in as well. Byproducts of the elder gamers, we guess. — Andrew Dobrow Link [via]

Exactly what we need. Something else telling us how miserable we are. Would you ever play a game that, a shooter style Duke Nukem game nevertheless, that is supposed to be able to measure depression? The US National Institute of Mental Health conducted a study which concluded that depressed players get their gamer asses whooped more often than non-depressed players in games that test spatial memory due to the effects of a shrunken hippocampus. To test their theory, scientists developed... Continue reading
