Sorry Gotta Go.com

This is a website filled with all sorts of sounds you can play so that whoever your talking to on the other line will think you really gotta go. Everything from car alarms to door bells.  I guess it’s a lot faster to just say, hey I gotta go I’ll call you later, but I suppose some people just can’t do that, but somehow playing fake sounds and pretending to have to go is better. I suppose this is still a good gag website though! Check it out here  (via:Oh!Gizmo)

Lapjuicer

This chair is wrong for so many reasons, but its art, and was on display at the Royal College of Art Postgraduate Degree Show. Its suppose to be inspired by the fact that when you go to strip clubs you can’t touch but now you can drink the juices of some oranged juice wrenched from the sweaty ass of a stripper…. Yummy.  Well it’s a funny joke if thast what its meant to be and I’m no expert on art so I won’t say its not art, then again I suppose some people consider Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball to be a good video game.

Nes Bluetooth Handset for VOIP

I’m in love, I’ve always thought Bluetooth phones were silly, but now I want one just so I can use this controller!! The speakers are in the cross pad and there is a mic hole next to the A. Basically if you get a phone call on your Bluetooth phone, hit start on the control pad to answer!  Too bad this was a one off and will never go in production this gets a 10 star geek fabulous rating!

Joao Sabino Key Bag

Now here is a purse I’d love to buy for my girlfriend, it absolutely stinks of being geek fabulous. I’m wondering if the ladies wouldn’t mind using this bag, even better if they use it in conjunction with the nes belt buckle, then again you’d end up attracking a legion of otaku zombie geeks.

Racketeer sleeping computer table

I lived for a brief time in Tokyo and I know how small apartments get out there, heck they’re like that in Hong Kong too. This computer table is nice though (click on the photo to see a larger picture), not only is it compact but you get to be a full on computer sloth and use your computer in the comfort of your bed, porn, movies, world of warcraft till its time to go to work. This is a really cool table, I’d get one but I have a notebook, check it out here (via: Gizmodo)

Revolution controller madness

First off you can get yourself a paper mock up of the Revolution controller here and here. Then you can go read developers comments here.  Really is a mixed bag of feeling coming from the game developers ranging from, “

I think that it is going to start getting really hard to make games that rely on the old standard configuration of face buttons fit with this model.  It was tricky enough with the one fewer button on the Gamecube controller. Cross platform games may not be the model for Revolution.” To comments like this, “I feel just like a child with a new toy, opening millions of new doors of possibilities.”  Check out this link for way more developer comments (via:4cr)

Gosu gaming multiscreen monitor

By crazy gluing up to 5 screens together Liebermanm inc has just set the bar a bit higher when it comes to surround vision high resolution. Capable of resolutions of 19200x2400 pixels you’ll definitely have lots of desktop space, finding a game with that high of a resolution however is another issue. Check it out here (via:Oh!Gizmo)

Giant Pink Bunny trips and falls over

This is an interesting art exhibition, art group gelatin made a giant rag doll like pink bunny, why I have no idea, but it seams Italians love there oversized art exhibits as much as their cars and fashion. (via: we make money not art)

Gundam Haro Case Mod

This has to be the ultimate case mode for Gundam fans. This is defiantly cooler than any Alienware or Voodoo PC case mod. Check it out here (via: Oh!Gizmo)
