David Gawthorpe, a entrepreneur from London took two years to build this cool "gaming chair, made out of the front end of black Mini Cooper.The price tag on this cool gizmo cost $12,900 and includes a Xbox 360, 500-watt amp, strobe and laser lights, a vibration pad under the seat, a mini fridge and even a remote-controlled smoke machine. When done the steering wheel and pedals folds into the car.




By the way this the only time you permitted to drink in drive and that's in the comfort of your own home. via nerdapproved

This is the coolest thing I have seen since that car bed from the classic TV show Silver Spoons.

VINTAGE MOBILE CINEMA - ON THE RUN EATING ENTERTAINMENT


I must say technology has came a long way. We went from Drive-In Movies to IMAX, and screens in headrest of cars. Well The folks in the UK have a cool repackaged idea for current times. The Vintage Mobile Cinema is a 22-seat mobile movie theater. It seems in the 1960's the British government was pushing promotion of industry and this vehicle played a key role. Originally seven vehicles were custom built, and by fate only one vehicle still remained. The mobile cinema is fully restored and equipped with an HD Digital Projection Unit with Dolby 7:1 Surround sound.




The movie bus is part of project produced by the Museum of Barnstaple & North Devon. For all my UK folks you can see schedules here.

I would love to rent one of these and do a series of movies BYOB style.

I think movie buses and mobile arcades need to be in abundance.

I WANT TO BE LIKE MIKE - MICHAEL JACKSON: THE EXPERIENCE VIDEO GAME

First off, RIP to The King Of Pop Michael Jackson!
The folks over at Ubisoft have put together a Michael Jackson Experience in the form of a video game. The game will be shipped out for the Wii however it isn't available yet for the Xbox. The game will also drop for the PSP and Ds but the glove isn't included. This game should be fun play with the Wii as you use the classic MJ glove for gameplay.







Chris Tucker should ace this game!

PSYCHOLOGY OF GAMING -MAKE YOU SAY HMMMMM

"Gaming" as we knew it is ever evolving. Video games are connecting us socially, and transforming into monetary property. This guy Jesse Schell has a great insight on games as they impact us culturally. Guys and Gals, we have come a long way since Pac-man and Space Invaders.
Video games to me are sometime better than a movie. In a game we live the role, and shoot the bad guy or depending on the day be the bad guy. I guess with this analogy there is reason why Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, and Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 are doing well. If I was a record a label I would hire game developers and create games or Apps to coincide with a record. I guess the reason Avatar was successful it portrayed gaming to some level. Meanwhile Video game companies are making Avatar money?!
I also included video of 2 games that seem like they possess play potential. One is called Limbo and the other is titled The Secret World. Enjoy!

I came across a quote today in the New York Times "In a movie you don't get a opportunity to make decisions that have consequences" - Omohundro

THE SKIGYM - NO NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE AGONY OF DEFEAT WITH THIS ONE!


Well you don't have to worry about being exposed to a cold breeze, or flying down a hill like Yogi Bear thanks to the SkiGym. At the cost of about $2300 you can either hit slopes or get a little workout in the comfort of your own home. The SkiGym comes with a game that has 32 levels of skiing and 18 actual existing mountains. This device hooks up to PC, and when not hooked up in game mode can be used as a standalone gym.




Seem like a house with Guitar Hero and SkiGym may help you transform your home into a ski retreat..now all you need is Snow bunnies for the Pajama jam!
