Project Yourself with Nikon’s Coolpix S1000pj

nikon-projector-lead

Forget about cell phones trying to be cameras. Instead, how about a camera that tries – and succeeds – at being a movie projector? Well, that’s exactly what Nikon is delivering with the new Coolpix S1000pj. Before we get into the projector part, let me first point out that this slick photo snapper includes a 5X wide angle zoom lens, 5-way VR image stabilizer and 12.1 megapixels. (more…)

Get Heard With The Go Mic Portable Microphone

gomic-lead

Having some dinky little microphone hidden inside a computer or cell might be convenient, but with garage bands to record and Skype calls and Podcasts to make, how can you settle for that? You can’t  – so that where Go Mic comes in. It might be small, but this portable USB condenser microphone’s got serious chops. (more…)

Hands On With The Zune HD

zune-hd-lead

Microsoft Zune HD has hit the net with a bunch of early reviews. Some of the prominent online tech sites have gotten a chance to play with the device and they’ve written a few things about the device. Most of the reviews are positive and think the Microsoft Zune HD has a chance to compete with Apple’s iPod Touch.

Peter Ha, from CrunchGear, says the Mirosoft Zune is a wonderful device but doesn’t do anything special when comparing it to Apple’s iPod Touch. He also points out that he didn’t get a chance to play with the latest firmware, so some of the features weren’t as sleek or intuitive.

The other day I saw the commercial for Wii Sports Resort and I was somewhat excited for it. I’ve gotten so used to playing the regular Wii Sport, when I saw some of the new sports, I really wanted it. The athlete in me, really wants to play basketball on the Wii Sport Resort. I want to test out my shooting ability in the virtual world and see how it holds up.

Gamer Grip: The BIGS 2

the-bigs-2-lead

Despite the fact that I’ve been playing and reviewing video games for years, I seriously, seriously suck at baseball games. Watching me play MLB 2K9 would send any serious sports-game fan into an uncontrollable fit of rage from my complete and total lack of skills. And that’s why I like The BIGS 2.

Building on The BIGS franchise, The BIGS 2’s over-the-top, arcade-style game play can cover-up even the worst player’s half-assed attempt at seeming athletic. In this latest release, 2K has juiced-up the “Become a Legend” mode with a fuller story mode that picks up after the “Rookie Challenge” from The BIGS, allowing you to create your player and follow him through from the Mexican minors all the way through to the Hall of Fame.

On top of that, they’ve added Season Mode, with full MLB schedules, stat tracking and roster management, which allows you to keep your fantasy team and your real team in sync. And the awesomely amped arcade action, like Legendary Moves, Batter’s Wheelhouse and Big Slam will make you feel like A-Rod after a trip to the Dominican Republic.

The BIGS 2 is available now on Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, PSP and Wii

6 Things That Suck About the New Star Trek Movie (SPOILER ALERT)

New-Star-Trek-Lead

You’re in for a treat this summer: Star Trek is poised to be a popular success on the level of Iron Man.  It’s exciting, funny, and entertaining in ways that are accessible both to die-hard Trekkies and average movie lovers… except for the parts where it sucks.

I had a chance to see Trek at an advance screening last week, and yes, I liked it a lot.  But the critics have already started over-praising it Dark Knight-style, and I know everybody else is going to join in soon too.  So allow me, just for a moment, to counterbalance the raves with some sanity and present to you the reasons Star Trek might not be the best thing ever.  (Be warned that there are spoilers in this article.)

Hands-On: Rhythm Heaven for Nintendo DSi

rhythm-heaven-header

If you like Guitar Hero and Rock Band then Rhythm Heaven for the recently-released Nintendo DSi is going to blow your damn mind. Known in Japan as Rhythm Tengoku Gold and in Europe as Rhythm Paradise, Rhythm Heaven is a musically inclined gamer’s dream, using taps, flicks, holds and slides with the stylus (or your finger) to perform a wide variety of mini-game “tasks,” such as filling up robots with fuel or playing ping pong, all done in-sync with the music. If you get too much off the beat or miss beats entirely, you lose. (more…)

Tuesday Album Release: Taylor Swift

taylorswift

Little Miss Taylor Swift.  We see her face everywhere these days. In fact, it wasn’t all that long ago that I saw the blonde country sensation hosting the VMA pre-show. I was actually beginning to wonder if she was just going to surrender her music career or not…

Turns out she didn’t.  Even if pop country singers are a dime a dozen, she’s cuter than most and actually plays guitar (that means she gets props). Her newest album, “Fearless“, dropped today.  While it’s not my thing, I have to admit, the songstress has got some melodically educated people behind her. The songs are catchy and sweet and seem to fit her pretty perfectly. (more…)

The Top 5 Most Terrifying Religu-licious Freakshows

Religion tends to bring out the best and the worst of people.  After watching Bill Maher’s new documentary Religulous this weekend, this fact has never been more obvious.  In the film Arkansas Senator Mark Pryor praises religion for it’s ability to soften the edges of humanity.  But with the good comes the bad, and in some cases the most horrifying insanity imaginable.

With snake-handling preachers and tear-stained children speaking in tongues, the soft edges can become a bit hard to recognize.  But as you will see in these five video clips, evangelical craziness can be  gruesomely exciting to watch and cause you to shrill with terror.
