I've been eagerly anticipating the release of Settlers of Catan on the Xbox 360 ever since it was announced last year. The wait will finally be over on Wednesday. If you have a 360, please buy this game (a mere $12.50) so we can get some games going. This unfortunately means that I will have to divert attention away from last weeks fantastic title: Pinball FX. There are so many good games to play right now...
A recent story on Digg caught my eye. This shifter nob replacement uses accelerometers to determine what gear you are in. You have to do a bit of training when you install it, but then you're all set to geek out. It has zero usefulness since you can just reach down and feel what gear you are in. It's pretty sweet though. And priced at $169? Hmmm....
