For anime and manga lovers who are old enough to remember Saint Seiya or Knights of the Zodiac, they should be glad that a MMORPG centered around Saint Seiya called Saint Seiya Online will be released by Sega this year.

In China, the online game was named 圣斗士OL and is already in beta. From the prizes (from PSP to MP3 players) that the Chinese players can get during this beta testing period, we reckon that Saint Seiya Online will attract new fans who have no idea who is Athena or Masami Kurumada.

Every now and then, we need to clear our puny brains. Maybe our minds are full of evil thoughts from adult games or maybe our gray matter contains yellow pellets that Pac-Man like.

No matter what, the Pac-Man Hat fits for all purposes. Whether you are going for a retro video games cosplay party, needing some shade to block the sun or confessing that you love ghosts, you need this big yellow hat.

$35.90 at NCSX.
