I can't imagine they'll get far with this argument— realistically there was no-where in the country they could've tried this case hoping for full impartiality— but this blurb doesn't bother me. Am I supposed to feel bad that a criminal is enjoying a zealous effort by his attorney? I hate Sandusky, and I hate what he…

Luckily for completionists, Sony seem intent on releasing HD collections of EVERY PS2 SERIES EVER MADE, instead of wasting their time on PS3 games. So we don't need to keep our PlayStation 2 games anymore!

I imagine the conversations had less to do with the size of the sensor (which is nifty, sure, but it's not an inconceivable accomplishment) and more to do with the camera application itself and the oversampling that turns the sensor into something magical. It's hard to understand how amazing the 808 is until you…

There goes the only reason I was considering seeing this in the theater. I like Del Toro, and will probably catch this on Netflix, but it looks like a thoroughly ridiculous shitfest. Without the geekspasm of hearing GLaDOS in the film, there just isn't enough here to warrant me purchasing a ticket.

AHA! I think this finally explains it. A few months ago I had the same thing happen, also in Houston. Two packages— some DZR cycling shoes and some boutique shifters— were delivered consecutively about thirty minutes apart via two delivery vendors to a small, gated complex. But only one actually made it. It worked out…

To be fair, Newegg has a hugely wider selection of parts than just about any brick and mortar retailer I've ever seen. Might not be a big deal to someone like you, but I think any serious PC builder would prefer the extra options available to him through the web.

I don't know. They're in stock everywhere around here (in Houston). Not just the lesser package, either... ever since retailers received second shipments of the $350 SKU most seem to be sitting on shelves. I'm debating buying one with some GameStop credit, but the fact they're (seemingly) not moving makes me wary…

Is there really that much of a market for these things? After replenishment, most retailers in my area can't seem to give away Wii U units. They're in stock everywhere, seemingly.

This year, more than any other I can remember, has seen reviews diverge dramatically for titles. I'm hopeful (but not certain) that it just indicates a respect for a gaming audience that is larger and more diversified than ever before. To wit: AC3 is NOT a "good game" in any way that we'd usually review it— it's…

Using GLaDOS is pretty badass— even if it's a disturbingly specific use of McLain's voice (she doesn't ALWAYS sound like that, just speaking conversationally)— and I suppose they must've received Gaben's blessing (or else JESUS is there going to be a shitstorm coming on).

To be fair, there isn't NEARLY as much media coverage as there is, specifically, Gizmodo coverage. Not to suggest that it wouldn't be difficult to deliver an unnoticed miscarriage of justice, but it's not like the rest of the world's media is anything like seriously focused on this. It's kind of a Gizmodo hard-on.

It would have been significantly less work to just make a video of the Android notification shade, rather than "design" a grey, rounded-corner copy of it. I'm not sure even Apple could get away with swipe-to-dismiss notifications... if Apple could patent bounce back scrolling, I'm pretty sure Google must have an…

I'm unsure I can get behind calling Skylanders OR Wii Sports overrated. I mean, did ANYONE really hold those games up as some kind of great shakes? Yes, Skylanders sells a metric shit-ton of merch for Activision, but it's a juggernaut aimed squarely at kids. It's kind of like arguing that the Imagine games are…

I enjoyed both of those games, and Fez is adorable, but at the end of the day Dr. Fetus > Gomez, no matter how susceptible you are to cuteness.

Halo was fun, but it had nothing at all on Rainbow Six 3. Jesus, that thing was justification enough for the Xbox to exist (alongside KOTOR, Otogi, and Unreal Championship II: the Liandri Conflict).

Hahaha, nicely done. I'm sure that's how a lot of folks will respond, regardless.

The title is an Archer reference. Yes! I AM COMMANDEERING THIS AIRBOAT.

Every non-linkspam article on Gizmodo anymore is about this kid or John McAfee. I've no problem avoiding them, and usually choose to do so (and it's totally Gizmodo's right to cover whatever they want)... but can we please get some actual articles about other topics to supplement these two stories?

That's the thing, though... unless you want to buy in to the heavily limited and modified Amazon ecosystem, there simply ISN'T anything else worth considering for $200ish outside of the Nexus 7. Sure, there are the occasional deep discount deals (like Costco inexplicably launching the $450MSRP Toshiba Excite 10 for…
