There’s nothing like a good japanese-produced parody of old super sentai shows to make one smile.

In that aspect, Rolling Bomber Special doesn’t disappoint.

PSPUpdates has a writeup on EXIT, a game set to arrive in Japan in December.

In this Sony PSP game by Taito, you help the stylistic Mr. ESC remove himself from any number of difficult situations such as burning buildings and prisons during earthquakes. You also will come across civilians who will need your escape expertise to find their way to safety as well, all while the game’s timer counts down.

With the promise of up to 100 extra levels being available for download over the ten weeks after release, this looks to be a great little addition to the PSP lineup.

You can view a trailer of the actual game play here.

These panoramic photos were made using multiple pan shots across our outside Halloween decorations and the “stitch mode” of my Canon Powershot A520 digital camera.

The ability of the computer software to work with the camera’s stitch feature and merge the resulting photos in an unbroken panorama is pretty impressive, particularly for how little I paid for the camera.

For only $499 at Target.com, you can own a little bit of nostalgia.

Japanese manufacturer Lupo now has a cardboard PC case available for consumers.

The cardboard case comes unassembled, but punching out a few pre-cut sections, some folding along perforated edges and a bit of tab A into slot B will get you a completely biodegradable, if possibly flammable, PC case that will certainly get you some attention at the next LAN party.

CNN Money has an article on the Gizmondo launch here in the United States. The device actually came out nearly a year ago in the UK, which only adds to the number of downfalls writer Chris Morris notes that Tiger Electronics saddled their portable gaming system with.

Between the high price, lack of stellar games, poor hardware design and forced advertisements on a portable gaming device, the Gizmondo comes across as an almost perfect example for how not to compete in a new market.
