Kingston 256GB USB Flash Drive

Patrick Quek — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 13:39:47 +0000

A USB drive can be used for many occasions such as getting your music, image or game files into one nifty gadget (or you can throw and play catch with your dog). Kingston Technology has pushed the storage limit of an USB flash drive to 256GB.

Fast transfer rate and the option of password protect of the files are some of the perks of using this drive. Of course, getting more Wii games into such a device is never been as easy as before.

Dragon Quest Slime Speaker Stand For DS

Patrick Quek — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 13:43:33 +0000

Dragon Quest’s Slime is like an entity on its own. It can change into any color or any shape or any function, that is if it wants to. For instance, the Dragon Quest Slime Speaker Stand by Hori can act as a speaker and a stand for your Nintendo DS. It can keep your DS upright and free your hands to do other stuff.

The Slime is also an external speaker to boost the sound from your video games to another level. Honestly, some think that this blue thingy is cuter than their boyfriends.

US$58.90 @ NCSX.

What’s is the ultimate fate for Brotherhood of Nod? Will GDI emerge as the winner? All and more will be answered in the highly anticipated EA game next year. Can’t wait.

TV TrickleSaver To Save Gaming Power & $

Patrick Quek — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 12:39:25 +0000

As environmental-friendly gamers, we are aware that the Earth is going to die (erm…just a matter of time). However, we can do our part for our future generations by saving power and reduce carbon emissions in the process.

One company called TrickleStar is aware of this saving or standby power issue to come up with the TV TrickleSaver which is to stop the flow of standby power when electrical appliances such as TV and your gaming console are in ’standby’ mode.

PS3 is the primary target for such usage while Microsoft Xbox 360 comes in as a close second. Device @ $34.95.
