Not by much mind you… only a margin of 239 consoles. What is interesting though is that both the PS3 and Wii are experiencing a decline in sales whereas the Xbox 360 has seen an unexplained upsurge in sales, possibly due to a mixture of the success of Halo 3 and the price drop for [...]
PS3 winding up/down to ‘digital media center’ status. Exciting times ahead?
Last Thursday news came through that Sony was selling its PS3 chips to rival Toshiba and is no longer interested in developing the technology further. Yesterday we heard that PlayStation is currently begging games developers not to forget about its console (having previously taken a very arrogant stance towards them), and now it’s being reported [...]
Audi to move into the mobile phone market?
This may only be a pipe dream, and if an Audi mobile does actually make it into production it will be as an accompaniment for your Audi vehicle. Outside of it having an mp3 player, Wi-Fi, 3G and sat nav the phone will take pictures on any fuckface who tries to steal your car and [...]

If anyone would like to correct me on that please do. I’m all [...]
Nerds still alive and well: guy builds Citroen Autobot
I’m doing a hell of a lot these days. Nerds aren’t just alive and well, it appears they’re taking over the asylum. Anyway, this is bizarre but still incredibly cool. Some bloke saw the Citroen C4 robot ad and decided to build one of his own… life size.

Nerds still alive and well: lo-fi Game Boy visuals rig
In fairness, this isn’t really that nerdy. It is in fact incredibly cool. A dutch guy who goes by the name of Gieskes has built a very lo-fi visuals machine that runs in tandem with the music he’s produced on his old Game Boy.
It’s basically Fischli and Weiss for techno heads. Check out the vid [...]

Akira style Yamaha bike: I Want One…
This is so outrageously like a kick ass Manga style motorbike from the future that I want one even though you would most likely have the piss taken out of you mercilessly for driving what looks like a really fast quad. It has the ability to lean into turns like a regular bike and is [...]
