    We Love Katamari Cosplay

    Hey, isn't the prince wearing a name tag? What's up with those sandals and black socks? And is that a paint brush and a hanger I see on the katamari? More »

    Oblivion Shouts Out: Capt. Picard and Boromir

    Bethesda Studios snatched up Patrick Stewart and Sean Bean along with Terrance Stamp and Wonder Woman herself, Lynda Carter to provide voices in the upcoming Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Stewart will voice the Emperor, and Bean his long lost son. What all of this means, we don't know as the details on the plot of Oblivion are sparse, but maybe some Shakespearean cross-family politicking will be at play. Who knows?

    Baby, It's a Wild World: Animal Crossing WiFi Details


    Infendo has some details from Nintendo about the WiFi functionality in the upcoming Animal Crossing: Wild World title for the Nintendo DS. Up to four players will be able to meet in a single town and do the day-to-day Animal Crossing chores, fishing, cutting down trees, picking weeds in addition to text messaging each other while in-town. Like the GameCube versions, players' resident animals may move to other players' towns. The WiFi mode and town-visiting is available to anyone in WiFi range. I forsee much griefing in Animal Crossing. Faithful readers, head into an unsuspecting town and cut down all of the trees. Report to us with the results and some screenshots. November can't get here fast enough! More »

    Killer 7 Director Makes DS Cosplay Game

    Gouichi Suda, the force behind Killer 7, is creating light entertainment for the Nintendo DS. Titled Contact, the yet released game follows a boy named Cherry that searches his planet for an alien professor's scattered power components. The kid also collects costumes, such as for a chef, pilot, fisherman or firefighter. Depending on what Cherry wears, his abilities change. I know exactly what that's like. If I'm not encased in a wetsuit, there's no way I'm up for SOCOM: Navy Seals. More »

    Ground Control to Major John

    Doom designer John Carmack's spaceship will be shown at the X Prize Cup on Oct. 6. The nine companies showing their shuttles, including Carmack's Armadillo Aerospace, won't be heading into orbit just yet the event's altitude is restricted to "low." Carmack told Wired that his spacecraft could be in space as early as next year. The October event will mark the first time the 10-foot-tall spaceship has been seen by the public. Carmack could see a return on his $2.5 million investment in the project if the military contracts the design for use. Space shuttles are cool and all, but when will Carmack and the military strike a deal to make a real-life version of the BFG9000? More »

    Xbox 360 Economics

    Thank you China for slave-labor wages. Workers in Southern China are making dollars a day to assemble 360's right as we speak. However, they won't be able to take out loans to buy the machines until 2006. As previously reported, America will get the console first, then Japan and finally China. More »
