Put a face on your game tag with Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera

Don't you wanna know who’s that punk that’s been kicking your ass in Halo 3 lately? You bet! Well, unless he is a 6 year old… Imagine if we all started putting our face to create an entirely new gaming experience. Think about intimidating your enemies with that killer expression you’ve been working on lately. Or maybe just starting a nice video chat after all the killing?

Stop being shy and put a face on your game tag! Make yourself known and introduce yourself to world by using the Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera.

This little camera is really great. The quality of the video and pictures is just fine and it is easy to install. Well, there’s no install actually, just plug the thing and you are good to go.


The best thing about the camera is its capabilities of mapping your face and turning the real you into an on-screen character. How cool is that??? Already games like Totemball are actually played by moving your arms and body in front of the camera and turn into a human controller. So what if you look silly playing? It’s fun as hell!

By the way, if you buy this camera from us, you’ll save like 60% of the original price tag. It’s new and it’s never been used and it costs $12.99 so get moving!

Your PSP deserves to be heard!

Last week we were bitching about Sony a little. Don’t get us wrong folks. We love our PSs and PSPs and whatnots, and can’t really imagine the world without Sony. But you know how it is, high expectations and big disappointments, right? Like with the PSP… man it can do cool stuff. Besides the gaming, you can get all your MP3s, movies, videos, shows and such on that mean little screen but... the speakers hold you back. They just can’t do the job. Not on a train, not in a plane.
Well, the nice guys at Joytech deicded that it would be a nice gesture to upgrade things and came up with a PSP Media Amp Speaker System. When you’ll dock your PSP in this Joytech joyride your ears will blow off. Seriously. It’s LOUD. How loud? Double the loud? No! Triple the loud? No! It’s quadruple the loud!!! And it’s not only loud… the acoustic design gives the unit a rich, full sound which practically brings your games, movies and music to life.
Joyride were nice enough to throw in a handy remote control and made sure that the docking station conveniently charges the PSP while you’re enjoying life. The Amp works with your PSP AC adapter or with the use of 4 AAA batteries.

And wait, we didn’t get to the best part. Guess how much? Come on… This PSP AMP costs $9.99 and no it’s not a typo and no we did not forget an extra 9. This is how we role here at www.Thumbmonkey.com

PSP Go - Epic Failure?

I don’t know what’s up with Sony, but it seems they like to see us suffer. On one hand they make these really cool gadgets and consuls but on the other hand they have serious control issues and they just won’t let us be!


Take a look at the beautiful new PSP Go. It’s a mean and lean machine – 16 percent lighter and 35 percent smaller than the PSP 3000. But it doesn’t have a UMD drive. So everything is saved on the internal memory (16GB) or on Sony’s own annoying Memory Shticks. Get it? If you’ve got a bunch UMDs you are stuck with your old PSP ‘cause there is no way you can transfer UMDs to the PSP Go.

Another thing that we absolutely hate (can you blame us?) is the fact that Sony's gone all Apple and you won’t be able to buy games from Thumbmonkey.com! Nope. You guys will have to feed the giant corporation, buying exclusively from Sony’s PlayStation Store. Now we’re not talking about the extra bucks you’re going to pay. Oh no. We’re talking about the freedom of choice America! Plus, download speeds are a pain, at least an hour if not two, all thanks to Sony’s limited 802.11b connectivity.



And it costs around $250. Huh? 250 dollars??? You have any idea how many games you can get for your PSP 3000 with that kind of money? hmmm... Lets see... If a game at www.Thumbmonkey.com will cost you around 10 bucks... then 10 times... no it's actually 250 divided by... Well... It's a lot of games all right!
