Those jackasses over at Boing Boing Gadgets have done it again. Posted a rad picture with no description. Look, is this really a camera with a damn garden growing out of the lens? It seems entirely plausible. Then again, it could be Joel photoshopping his pubes into sprouts.
Holy smokes! For $200, you could buy a real guitar!
Look at this thing. Fake humbucker pickup, tremolo bridge, rosewood fretboard – this thing is over the top. It also apparently will get really good battery life and will work with both Rock Band and Guitar Hero titles. Hey, to each his own but I’m comfortable with the basic Fender Strat controller that comes with RB2.
Meet Remi Gaillard. He’s a real Italian plumber (except he’s French). The kind that drives a go-kart in live traffic, throwing banana peels at those trying to pass him by in an attempt to thwart their course. Yes, this man is playing Mario Kart for real. A hilarious video that’s well made and fun to watch. Don’t miss out.
Not feeling well this morning but this certainly cheered me up. It seems that basketball star Shaquille O’Neal has his own Twitter account and some of the shit he’s been saying is hilarious. His feed can be found at twitter.com/THE_REAL_SHAQ. Here’s a few choice tweets from the Space Jam alumni:
“Detective oneal does not jordan vander sloots story about what happened to natalee”
“Mark crow, larry jones, and i recieved 36 thousand jars of peanut butta tonite at victory church in oklahoma city “
“My genius is 1 percent inspiration 99 percent perspiration Shaquille o’neal”
I swear, I couldn’t make this shit up if I wanted to. If I ever sign up for Twitter, this will be the sole reason why.
Yes! Even more Guitar Hero guitars that, much like the players, try desperately hard to be the real thing. This time around, Logitech is releasing the gorgeous Wireless Guitar Controller Premiere Edition for $250. Screw spending the $250 on a real guitar. Real guitars are for old people.
As far as fake guitars go, this thing leaves all the other guitar controllers in the dust. The body of the controller is solid, the neck is made of real wood, the frets and tuning peg handles are metal and the fingerboard is rosewood. It’s also on par with the Rock Band guitar controller in terms of a quiet strum bar. You’ll find this guitar more intricate than that Gibson Les Paul you never learned how to play. It’s compatible with the Playstation 2 and Playstation 3 versions of Guitar Hero titles.
Have a Windows PC and a Netflix account? Perfect. Grab your credit card and get ready to hand over $30 to RealNetworks. Yes, that Real. The one with the obsolete streaming audio format. Yes! That’s the one!
You see, Real just released RealDVD. It’s a legal application that allows you to rip DVDs to up to five computers without ramifications. It’s legal, easy to use and will surely benefit the amateur pirate. Hollywood wasted no time in threatening RealNetworks and now, in a counter move, Real has sued the major studios. It wants a judge to essentially insist that RealDVD is legit and here to stay. As Chamillionaire says, controversy sells.
While we haven’t covered anything involving the massive internet hysteria that has been caused by the J.J. Abrams produced Cloverfield, we’ve been following the viral stuff and all of the hype behind the scenes. Today, we bring to you a very real screenshot animation of the Cloverfield monster. Let the blogosphere unleash its wrath! Hit the jump for the full spoiler animation. You’ve been warned! (more…)
