Wasn’t there a Star Trek: TNG episode where all the characters ended up addicted to some headset games console?  Something about a crazy bouncing ball.  Anyway, hopefully NeuroSky’s potential customers for their new brain-wave sensing games machine won’t have seen the series and thus won’t be put off their Star Wars themed console.

I do my fair share of traveling, and one of the worst parts about it is leaving all of my data at home. Yes, I could carry around external hard drives, but that’s a pain. I usually keep a lot of files that I might need on my laptop, but it never fails, there’s always something sitting on my NAS at home that I need.

Now Buffalo has introduced it’s new Web Access feature for their LinkStation Live NAS devices. This allows you to connect to your NAS from anywhere in the world over the internet. The entire process is set up using a basic web browser interface, so it’s a piece of cake to set up. You can even allow other users access to your data with little effort.

Boy, the guys over at Sony know how to throw a launch party. Just throw in a half-naked chick and a decapitated goat and they’re ready to launch God Of War II.

Seriously, for a company that wants to be taken seriously as a family entertainment company, you’d think they would have come up with something different for their launch. Ok, I’m not going to get all upset about the topless chick (I’m a guy, sorry) it’s the decapitated goat that really makes me wonder who gave this the go-ahead. Even better, they stuffed the goat with fake guts that people were invited to pull out and eat.

Middle aged gamers for teh win (or something)! The NPD Group is reporting that in an average month, 29 million cell owners play games on their mobile devices and more than 7 million download games — though there isn’t any mention of where they are downloading from. NPD further break this down with 29 percent downloaded by people aged 24 – 34, 27 by the 18 – 24 set, and 15 percent by the youngest group aged 13 – 17. No shocker here — the oldest group typically has the means, a credit card to shop with, and depending on the career choice, time.
