Oh, That MGS4 Headset Is Real

Not real. Pffft. What the hell do I know. Turns out that Bluetooth MGS4 headset is real, as over the weekend we learned that the product is not only already appearing in the catalogue of peripheral manufacturer PDP, but has also begun turning up in retail databases across Europe and the US. You can see above part of the entry in PDP's latest retailer catalogue (full-page version after the click), which not only confirms the headset's existence, but its feature set as well. For $60, you'll be getting up to 8 hours talk time, a 30ft range, an auto-shut-off function to save battery life and a snazzy little carry case. The headset will be released on June 12, same day as the game itself. More »

Wireless Rock Band Guitars For PS3 Not Bluetooth Ready

Remember that dangling dongle "solution" for Guitar Hero III for the PLAYSTATION 3? You may be in for a similar treat with Rock Band, as 1UP reveals that the game's wireless guitars won't actually use the built-in Bluetooth wireless capabilities for that game either, instead opting for a custom 2.4 GHz hardware option. Don't worry, Harmonix just says this is for the "first generation" guitar controllers, which may mean you have the option to re-buy wireless Bluetooth controllers at a later date. More »

Beyond its piano black exterior sure to magnetize dust to match your PS3, the keyboard features basic SIXAXIS button controls and web browsing media shortcuts during 200 hours of battery life. And while the built-in touchpad won't be ideal for an FPS, it will make simple mouse tasks couch-convenient. More »

Gallery: Wii Flash Training Sculpture


I have no idea what in the heck is going on in these pictures except that it's done with a Nintendo wiimote, a Flash program, and it looks like it involves dancing. The kind of dancing that involves a leotard. More »

PS3 Bluetooth Controller Issues?

Here's an issue that's been nagging me since I got my PlayStation 3 on Friday. I'm playing Resistance online, and suddenly the map will come up, or the score. I didn't hit the controls to bring these up...they just pop up on their own. Then at times I'll lose control, spin around, or sometimes even fire without wanting to. At first I thought it might be my general suckage at FPS games, but several readers have now complained about similar situations. Doesn't seem to happen when I am plugged in via the USB cable...only when I am wireless, and generally only when I am playing online. More »

Sony's FCC Filing: PS3 WiFi/Bluetooth Do Not Transmit Simultaneously

Over at Aeropause, they spotted this worrying paper submitted by Sony to the FCC. In the paper, Sony claims that Bluetooth and Wi-Fi modules in the PS3 do not transmit simultaneously. This is doubtlessly meant to assuage some sort of FCC requirement. More »

PSP Bluetooth Audio Dongle

This is kinda cool, a company called Ever-E has come up with a Bluetooth dongle for the Playstation Portable that will allow you to transmit music from your PSP to Bluetooth enabled headphones. I personally don't see myself using something like this, because I still don't see the PSP as a music playing device, but who knows, maybe that will change. More »
