I got a cool new geeky gadget review for all you gadget collectors out there.
Ever wanted an easy way to enjoy your SMALL portable devices with BIG speakers? Or how about just have the ability to get away from all the wires, I cant tell you how many cool electronics have met there end in my home just because a pet or small child decided to run past it like it was the finish line at an Olympic race.
So check out the review to see what I am talking about and let me know if you found the review useful and entertaining.
Just thought I'd share an update on my never ending quest to find the perfect gaming rig. I've been running a 1+3 Eyefinity rig for a while. I decided to invert this, and flip to a 3+1 config. This allows me to keep my Mac running on the bottom screen, while I have Eyefinity running at top. The "pockets" of space created on my desk now give me more room for speakers (review of the Corsair SP-2500 coming soon) and other items.
I'll let you know how I like it once I've had more time with it. You can see my full command center in this forum post.
For those who love the DiRT games and haven't heard, Gymkhana 5 is out now. Set in San Francisco, I would say this is probably one of the best yet.
Hop into the cockpit of an X-wing as Luke Skywalker, leader of the Rogue Squadron, in a series of missions against the Empire.

I must admit that I've yet to play the Mass Effect series. Sacrilege I know, but the lack of Eyefinity support, and a backlog of Eyefinity-capable games meant that Mass Effect would simply need to wait. I still followed the development of all three games, and the efforts of the WSGF community to implement proper Eyefinity and Surround support (successful I might add).
Apparently the ending wasn't up to snuff, with reactions ranging from "soul crushing" to incomplete. One common complaint was that for all the myriad of choices available during the series, the final installment basically shoehorned you into one of a few endings. Now, I'm not surprised that gamers may be disappointed with such an ending, but I was surprised at the level of the response - message boards lighting up, online petitions and donation drives. I guess I shouldn't be shocked at anything when the Internet Rage Machine (IRM) starts up.

One of the developers at Codemasters working on the DiRT franchise has updated us to confirm that it will be possible for Surround and Eyefinity users to enjoy their newest title DiRT: Showdown with the proper FOV in the next patch.
The information was posted in the DR thread after the issue was raised by a number of users.
A while back Ergotech had posted this mock-up for a speaker mount accessory, for use with their HD monitor stand line. There has been some renewed interest in pursuing this accessory, and I'd like to see what interest there is for the item. The set would have three stands for L-C-R speakers. The current idea was to provide a universal shelf (as shown below) that satellites could rest on.
Would you be interested in adding this to your HD stand? If so, what would you be willing to pay? Also, what speakers are you using? What is the size and weight of the satellites and center speaker?
Nosferatu: The Wrath of Malachi is action driven shock-style horror first person shooter game. You face the challenge of freeing your family and friends from the captivity of a Romanian Count at his castle. As the game progresses it stands clear that all is not what it seems and violence becomes the only way to save yourself, your family and mankind. The first objective of the game is obvious. You have to locate and rescue each of your family members and friends held captive. As you rescue your family, you'll learn about the Count's real goals.
