UncategorizedTake a Gander at the Augmented Reality Effects Possible on Sony PlayStation Vita
I’ve only gotten to play with the PlayStation Vita’s augmented reality functions for a few minutes, but the portable system’s relatively powerful processor and high-resolution screen does a good job of selling the “magic” overlay effect.

What Do You Call a Physics Puzzler Starring an Irish Human Cannonball?
It takes a special kind of man to shoot himself out of thousands of cannons, bouncing his way through 120 puzzling levels filled with deadly obstacles. Or maybe just a really drunk guy. Nowhere in the description for YoYo Games Rick O’Shea does it actually mention our hero taking a couple of shots of whiskey…
