Like a lot of geeks out there I have a constant stream of crap being shipped to me from various internet companies. But I’m getting sick of just chucking all of the cardboard away. There has to be something productive we can create using all of our excess boxes. And then I came across this and I had a “Eureka!” ...

Righties rejoice. Ben Heck has done it again with a brand new mod. This time around the Heck-ster created a one-handed Xbox 360 controller. The addition of a semi-intrusive joystick removes the need for the left side of the controller. An added mechanism on the rear of the controller manages the bumper action. While it’s not as pretty as some ...

Back in October 2006, Netflix began their $1 million challenge, offering a cash reward to the development team whom could improve Cinematch, the company’s recommendation engine, by at least 10%.

Designed by the same fortune teller who created this Xbox 720 concept, Tai Chiem’s next target is the Playstation 4, the potential next gen console for Sony and the sequel for the PS3. Much like the Xbox 360, the PS3 still has a few more years of life left in its lifespan of relevency. In fact, I believe the console ...

Ever since Disney bought Marvel, we’ve heard loads of predictions and quips and seen enough mash-ups to last us a lifetime. Well, maybe the non-geek lifetime. Us true geeks never see enough mash-ups. That’s why when we saw that Photoshop community Worth1000 had taken on the Disney/Marvel combo, we knew that greatness was to follow. And the results did not ...

Finally, an achievement anybody can earn, without even playing a game. The Xbox 360 Achievement: Red Ring of Death t-shirt rings a little too close to home for us Xbox gamers. Microsoft might consider adding an achievement, at least something good could come out of something altogether sucky. And that’s how my console became airborne. Link [via]

What up south paws? Gaming controllers got you down? Lack the coordination in your right hand to successfully tap out the X Y B A buttons? Who decided to call it the “right” hand anyway. We say, it’s the WRONG hand. UNH! In yo face! Master modder Ben Heck busted out this awesome swapped Xbox 360 controller, a controller made ...

This calculator only does a sub-par job of mimicking the Xbox 360 controller. Why, exactly, is this such a ripoff? No friggen Y button. WTF. Do the math. (Hardy-har) We’ve been short-changed. Link

The Arkham Asylum Batman video game is on its way to the market, but isn’t here quite yet. If the anticipation is too much to bare, and your Batman Robe just isn’t cutting it, here is a way to at least have some sort of contact with the game before its official release. The Batman Arkham Asylum Poker Set, much ...

I’m not much of a flip-flop or sandal guy, but my fiancee really digs them. When she’s not working, flip-flops are usually her shoe of choice, so needless to say, on trips to the beach, she’s flip-flop obsessed. These Aperitivo Flip Flops designed by Tommaso Colia feature a circular cup holder built right into the shoes design. When your chilling ...
