It has been rumored for over a year that Microsoft has plans to create a portable handheld gaming system to rival the likes of Nintendo’s DS and Sony’s PSP. Unfortunately, Microsoft is keeping a tight lid on the truth. However, the artists over at T3 Magazine couldn’t resist with their speculation on what such a device would look like from Microsoft. So, they decided to take matters into their own hands. T3 has published their rendition of the possible mobile device, combining a Zune, Xbox 360, and phone into one sleek package. In fact, the hybrid device looks pretty damn good. Although, what’s up with the flat-looking analog sticks? Regardless, the concept calls for 64GB of Flash storage — GTA IV on-the-go anyone?
From my favorite Photoshop guru Pixeloo, comes Stewie Griffin from Family Guy. Just as disturbing as his Mario and Homer Simpson ‘untooning’, but equally awesome.
Ever wanted a cute set of speakers for your office desk? Well, check out the Munny Speakers “mod” from Fungus Amungus at Instructables. You’ll need a pair of Munny dolls ($25 via KidRobot) and 3″ drivers like these bamboo drivers ($22 each). Simply cut a 3″ circle off of the doll’s head with a Xacto knife to fit in the speakers. The Munny dolls are made of vinyl so you might want to use a blow dryer to warm up the doll’s face to soften it before cutting. After cutting off the faces, create a small puncture hole in the doll’s neck to thread the speaker wire. After threading the wire, fill the heads with polyfill and then attach/seal the speakers to cover the hole.
You’ve now got a set of cute Munny doll speakers. Full instructions at Instructables.
Kyle Downes, an Australian and woodwork master, decided to go a little geeky with his latest project. Instead of making a boring, ordinary table, he decided to make a NES controller/coffee table/storage box. Believe it or not, the table-sized controller is functional as can be seen in the video below. This is certainly no amateur job.
Remember the NES and TV made from felt? Well, check out these weapons made from the same soft material. All of the “weapons” are designed by MP Industries and are all unique. No weapon will be sold twice. The collection includes: a 9mm Glock, katana, medieval flail, AK-47, grenade, sniper rifle, claymore mine, nun-chuck, and a revolver to name a few. My favorite is the pink looking P90, which looks bad ass!
Too bad the only damage these things will do is…well, nothing. =)
So, what do you do with all of that folders and file icons cluttering your desktop?
Make art of course. The readers of Gizmodo sent in their entries for the desktop clutter art contest. Pretty cool. First place went to Damien Nozay’s Purple Tentacle.
