Sony Rolly busts a color move



Filed under: , ,

Sony just turned out the Rolly music player in black. A surprise blown by the FCC just last week. At least we can wonder at the colorful end-caps at a cost of ¥1,500 (about $15) per. Of course, if you scoffed at the original Rolly, then the April 19th, Japanese release of the new ¥40,000 (about $400) dancing-speaker bot won’t likely tug at your pawnshopped heartstrings either.

PSP slim modded for dual analog sticks

Been longing for a second analog stick on your PSP? Modder LordNico’s got you covered with the Razor X (seriously, where do these guys come up with their names?), a user-installable analog stick that appears to mimic the functions of your standard four button pad. (In other words, getting the games to take advantage of the controls is another matter entirely.) Apparently details of the mod will be released soon enough for those brave enough to consider relocating their power switch to the start button — yikes.

Original content coming to Xbox 360

We were kind of wondering when it was finally going to happen: Microsoft’s inked a deal with a production company to do original content for the Xbox 360.

No word yet on when it’s coming, just that we can expect the usual compliment of Hollywood pap.
