Sony PS3 Will Deliver 3D Experience After All
We speculated back in August that the stars were starting to align for Sony around a Motion-controlled/3D future for the PS3. Our confidence in this fact centered around the recent motion-controlled demonstration that Sony gave for the PS3 at E3. Combined with the never-used EyeToy camera, what Sony was showing off looked comparable, if not [...]

Wednesday, August 19, 2009
Back when the PS3 and Xbox 360 were first announced, we aren’t ashamed to say that we were avid fans of the PS3 platform… much more so than the self-aborting Xbox 360. It was a much higher build quality, the technical achievement of the Cell Processor was ridiculously complex and therefore impressive, it played Blu-ray [...]

Monday, November 24, 2008
I enjoy watching NFL games. I enjoy watching them in High Definition a lot more than watching them in Standard Definition. However, more than watching the game even in HD I love watching games at the actual stadium. A few years from now it looks like that may change. The NFL is looking into broadcasting games [...]

That’s right, you heard about the cell-phone-sized Duke Nukem Forever screenshots that were in the Xbox Live version of Duke Nukem 3D… looks like 3D Realms took mercy and released the official high-res versions of them, here they are (YAY STRIPPERS!)

Tuesday, August 12, 2008
Grant Gochnauer sends in news to a video that blows my goddamn mind, I’m honestly not sure what to make of this. Either it’s an extreme mockup, or the graphical/interactive/virtual-world bar that exists today is about to get broken in half and shoved right up someone’s ass. The video below is supposedly an unauthorized leak of [...]

Sunday, July 20, 2008
You remember that old saying “Follow the money?” whenever you wanted to find the answer to something? It still applies… For years now PC Gaming has “been dying” and giving way to consoles; the more locked down, publiser/advertiser friendly, vendor lock-in-encouraging devices that have meant to replace the 20 billion PC gamers on the planet. Yea after [...]

Monday, July 14, 2008
Damn, it seems that Nintendo has some bombs to drop at E3 this year, leading up with a new “true 3D motion accessory” that adds on to the existing Wiimote. Apparently the new addon, combined with all the existing measurment facilities of the Wiimote, can completely accurately, with a 1:1 accuracy, map your physical motion to [...]

Musion is set to revolutionize porn… and maybe a few business meetings a long the way. At Cisco’s Globalization Centre East in Bangalore, India Musion showed off a collaborative technology they developed with Cisco in the form of 3D Holographic [...]

Friday, November 2, 2007
This is pretty slick, it looks like Wondor hacked up an anaglyph plugin for Compiz Fusion to actually re-render the desktop pulling apart R/G/B to give it that 3D effect. The trick is you have to have a pair of 3D glasses laying around to see it in action. And yes, Compiz Fusion is what Ubuntu [...]

Friday, October 19, 2007
No that is not a Mac desktop you are looking at, that’s Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon). While we covered the 7.10 release a few times before, now that it’s officially out, people smarter than me have coughed up some pretty great reviews of it. Lunapark6 has a in-depth review with a lot of screenshots covering the [...]

Tuesday, September 26, 2006
Ths is a great writeup done by Emanuele Tamponi on how all these 3D-related technologies combine to give Linux users eye candy. He explains what the drivers need to support, where the X Server fits in here, what Compiz does and more. As you know I was already confused about this, so check it out. Here [...]
