Britney Spears has been released from Cedars Sinai hospital. According to hospital staff, she no longer poses a threat to herself or others. Earlier this morning, Britney allegedly pitched a fit, screaming at hospital employees and pulling her IV out. The hospital had been holding Spears under a 5150, an order which would ordinarily result in Britney being locked down for three days. Filed under: Beer, Food Gadgets
I’ve always wanted to be a handy guy, someone who can build things and fix things. Truth is, I can barely paint the walls of my living room or change a tire. But that doesn’t mean I don’t like reading about projects from other people. Like this table made out of old beer cans. And though it sounds like something that ReadyMade or Make would have in their pages, it’s actually from 1936. If you’re wondering, the beer is Pabst and they used 420 cans. The chairs are made from beer cans too. [via Boing Boing] Permalink | Email this | Comments Filed under: Rumors  EGM’s sometimes-right rumor mongerer, Quartermann, is now claiming that Sony has signed an agreement with a major third party Japanese publisher to create remakes for the PSN. 1UP further fuels the fanboy fire with a rather unhelpful (but exciting) tease that’ll get our imaginations rolling: “As for which publisher this is, the magazine doesn’t reveal. Could it be Konami? A remake of Contra or Castlevania could be pretty sweet. Or Capcom? Ghosts & Goblins or Strider please. Or maybe even Square Enix? Chrono Trigger = OMG.” We’re pretty certain the EGM team knows exactly what’s going on — but must keep their mouths shut on the specifics. Regardless, things are going to get pretty interesting later this year. [Thanks, Joe!

First is an annoyance that we’re sure many will complain about: the 5GB install to remove the game’s load times is not optional. When the game releases, you’ll be forced to endure minutes upon minutes of waiting as the game copies gigabytes of data to your PS3 hard drive. There’s good news, though. The game will use the PSN for ranking modes. You’ll also be able to collect achievements in the game (like in the Xbox 360 version) and you’ll be able to see what achievements your friends have collected (a la Xbox Live). Finally, SIXAXIS controls have been added to the game. By tilting the controller, you’ll be able to control the camera. It’s not a significant extra, but it is a nice, subtle way of using the PS3’s tilt functionality.

Well, you’ll be glad to know that the game’s online support has just been expanded. Now, with a simple press on the D-Pad, you’ll be able to play with up to 8 players online. According to the official website, “a total of 13 new Freeburn challenges will be available for players to attempt - 3 challenges in 5, 6 and 7 player sessions, and 4 new challenges for those playing in 8 player sessions.” This is, of course, to get your appetite ready for the full game coming out in two weeks.

[CES 2008] Garmin has just announced its nuvi 260W, a widescreen personal navigation device (PND) for beginners that boasts the ability to speak street names, helping you get around easily without going through the hassle of folding maps. Features include a sunlight-readable 4.3″ touchscreen display, an internal GPS antenna for a more lightweight and compact design that makes it suitable for in-vehicle use, turn-by-turn, voice-prompted directions, as well as the well loved and intuitive “Where To?” and “View Map” welcome screen. The nuvi 260W is smart enough to recalculate a route in case you miss a turn on the way to the destination, minus the nagging that often comes with your wife after a long road trip. The nuvi 260W will include pre-loaded detailed mapping of the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. Each purchase comes with a vehicle suction cup mount, vehicle power cable, dashboard disk, and owner’s reference manual. Permalink | Comment | Uberbargain | Uberphones |
