Companies just keep coming up with different ways to use USB Flash Drives. The latest is to put video games on them. Dane-Elec has chosen Rainbow Six Lockdown , Blazing Angels and Fashion Designer - older games that you probably had on a 3 1/2 floppy drive, that can now be installed off of a USB Drive. The prices are relatively cheap at $19.99 or $24.99. And when you are done with the game, you have a 8GB Flash Drive to use. Sadly though, in any medium these games probably suck...

The Smartfish Tru:Motion Wireless Mouse and Pro:Motion Game Controller are both unique items peripherals that reach outside the box on design but are made to also be ergonomic.

It features a pivot-motion that is not only ergonomic, but a "Motionomic™ design" Meaning ergonomics doesn't have to be a stationary position but one that moves albeit comfortably for the user while constantly never leaving the wrist in a fixed state. Ideal for ambidextrous people as well. It also features optical tracking, scroll wheel, and a sophisticated

Street Fighter will always be known to the masses as one of the best arcade games ever. Who didn't enjoy running to their local pizza shop after school to lay a pile of whoppass on your friends. I know I did (especially after I stayed until way past 12am one school night, begging for quarters just so that I could hit continue) and no matter what character you played, Ryu would always get you through to the end. Anyway the Street Fighter 4 Pro Stick lets us continue that tradition in the privacy of our own home, since most of us are not as agile as we once ...

Maybe we take our Wii gaming a little bit too seriously, but in order to complete the experience of wielding a sword  or defending yourself with a shield - we recommend getting one of these kits. Designed for Zelda, the Set of 3 Sword Knife Shield Combat Pack transforms your Wii mote and nunchuck in to "realistic" looking weapons. Of-course when we say realistic, we mean toy-like - but either way you'll definitely feel like you're more a part of the action when you start swinging that plastic sword and knife. For those of you who play Saber Dragon Quest, there is also the 2 in 1 Light ...

For those living under a rock, you may not have known about this absolutely amazing modded PS3 created by Morpheon Mods last year. Well with much fan fare it was completed and put on ebay for auction. It sold successfully, but it looks like the winner no longer wants this little piece of heaven. It is currently listed for  auction on ebay due to financial hardship. Getting screwed by two previous buyers ( I know the feeling) the seller has put it back up for a hefty price tage of $7,995. I'm thinking in this day and age not even Snake could afford it.

Sick of your regular PS3 gamepad - well how about this rather ugly substitution. The  design with chrome style buttons make me think of the NES Advantage I had many moons ago. The color coded buttons add to the arcade realism, with no lag via USB technology. The BLAZE PS3 Digital Arcade stick is compatible with all PS3 games- both Blu-ray and PSN downloaded titles. The BLAZE digital Arcade stick has 8 buttons for all fighting games such as Fight Night or Street Fighter. Both the Turbo and Macro buttons are programmable to customize your fighting prowess.  No pricing is available yet but it ...

This is truly a cake suited for the rock gods. This totally freaking awesome Guitar Hero inspired cake features the universal fist of rock, Guitar Hero, and even the colored targets scattered about.  So if you, or someone you know would be totally blown away by a rocking birthday cake, than I would definitely reach out to Layersoflove on Flickr, who not only made this one but many others that are pretty outstanding. Otherwise, you can try making a guitar cake on your own.

There was the Super Mario Wall Graphics for your room last year, now there is the Donkey Kong version. Basically these are the same concept, they are movable and reusable decals based on the same 8-bit graphics from the classic NES version of the game. The package includes three 26” x 40” sheets of decals with 42 decals per package. So go ahead and get crazy and even as a decal, I bet Jumpman (Mario) still won't catch Donkey Kong. The Donkey Kong Wall Graphics retail for $74.99.

If you like killing zombies in the morning, afternoon and even at night, then Capcom has done a great job of that in Resident Evil 5. The latest installment in a series of horror survival games has been brought to a new level of play. Capcom and has gone and transformed this usual single player game into a co-op zombie killers dream. Coming back for another round is Chris Redfield and joining him this time is Sheva Alomar. Sheva is the co-op player throughout the game. She is able to heal you and switch ammo, which makes the game far more interesting. Chris and Sheva find themselves in war-torn Kijuju Africa which seems like it is run with mercenaries. With this area comes lots of struggle since no one is to be trusted but the Delta team, an elite team that helps guide Chris and Sheva at certain points during their missions. Chris and Sheva are on the hunt for bio-terriorist Ricardo Irving who is selling viruses on the black market and it is safe to say, they are not for curing anything. As Chris and Sheva push on they go up against infected mercenaries turned zombies and many super zombies that Ricardo has infected and sent out to destroy Chris and Sheva, this is on top of them trying to stop Ricardo from selling his evil viruses.

Checkmate or jumpmate...I'm not really sure how you would say it in this version of Chess - the Super Mario Chess Collector's Edition. This unique version of the game features all the usually characters. On one side of the board is the 'Reds' or good guys if you will, which are Mario and his many sidekicks as well as coins to represent pawns. The other side is the ' greens' or the baddies which make up Bowser and all the usual suppects and Koopa Shells make up the pawns on this side of the board. Whichever side you choose you are bound to have tons of fun with ...

It's about time someone made something to store your Rock Band gear in.

It offers enough space to store 2 guitars, a foot pedal, and microphone. The cool factor is that there is a built-in AK Drum lift that raises and lowers both Rock Band and Rock Band 2 drum kits. So in the end you would be playing your drums out of an Ottoman....maybe not cool enough for hard core gamers but ...

I love my Xbox 360 and PS3 but I've been a pretty avid PC gamer since the late 80s. I never thought that a console would replace my desire to play PC games - and it never has. However, I think PC gaming  really is finally on the way to its coffin. Why do I think that? Not because of the console wars but because I cant find a physical brick and mortar store that sells PC games anymore! My local Game Stop used to stock a section with PC Games, over the years the section has gotten smaller and smaller, and now it has disappeared altogether. I was shocked and horrified when I first discovered this. But I consoled myself that I could always head over to J & R, an electronics retailer in lower NYC that has always had a big PC gaming section. So low and behold I was shocked once again to discover that their PC gaming section had shrunk to a minuscule size.

All the modifications for the drums are pretty cheap starting at $9.99 and up, and they may just put a step back into that ...

The HexoLight 3000 Sound Activated LED Lighting System is the perfect compliment for any hardcore Guitar Hero enthusiast because who doesn't love a good lightshow when playing plastic instruments?

It comes with 3 pods of color: red, yellow, and blue lights in an octagonal shape. You can customize different shapes and configurations, the threshold of the sound, and you can control the speed of the flash. The best part is when the drums and guitars are put away, the HexoLight 3000 will work with your ...

Gaming is hazardous to your health it seems - no, this is not another complaint from Jack Thompson, this time it's comes from the British Journal of Dermatology. 'Playstation Palmar hidradenitis' is a new disease dubbed by researchers after a 12 year old girl came into a Swiss hospital complaining about painful sores in the palm of her hands. "Doctors who examined her at the Geneva University Hospital concluded she had a condition known as 'idiopathic eccrine hidradenitis', a skin disorder that generally causes red, sore lumps on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet." After pausing on the gameplay for 10 days she fully ...

Want to play Guitar Hero on a budget? Well your in luck with Jam Legend. It's a Guitar Hero like game that uses the numeric pad on your keyboard to play along to music tracks, and its free! You can jam away by yourself or with others on the internet. It may seem like this type of gameplay is for babies, but after trying out a few sessions we can testify that it isn't as easy as it looks. Jam Legend even offers a decent playlist, but mostly it is comprised of songs that aren't very popular.
