Sapphire makes multi-monitor 3D gaming a reality with a single video card

Multi-monitor gaming is hardly uncommon these days, but 3D gaming on the PC is, well, decidedly less common. Perhaps it will be the merging of the two immersive approaches that finally gets 3D going on the PC, and Sapphire is showing that it’s possible

Nintendo 3DS will launch ‘in all major markets’ by March 2011, design still being tweaked

Admin — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 16:42:00 +0000

When Nintendo of Japan first announced the 3DS (think: way back in March ), it promised a release of the portable by the fiscal year ending March 2011. Given the DS and DSi’s six-month global rollout window, however, we weren’t sure if that applied to the world or just the company’s backyard — sure, we’ve heard rumors of a UK release in October , but nothing’s been confirmed. Cue Nintendo of America’s president Reggie Fils-Aime to give a definitive answer: “The one thing, for sure, is that we will launch in all of our major markets by March 31, 2011.” Well, that about settles it in our mind

Interview: Chuck Pagano talks ESPN 3D, mobile streaming

Admin — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 20:21:00 +0000

During our time at ESPN’s headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut this past week, we were able to peek inside every nook and cranny of the company’s technological side. We discovered some pretty remarkable things about the culture and attitude toward innovation, and while the bulk of that discovery will be seen in a forthcoming Engadget Show segment, we couldn’t help but share some insight from a kind fellow who has been deeply involved in the blinking lights portion of ESPN from day one. We sat down for a brief one-on-one interview with Chuck Pagano — ESPN’s executive vice president of technology — following the outfit’s 3D launch, and while we were both bitter over the 1-1 result in the South Africa vs

Sony may come up with some far-out ideas , but the company insists this one’s a bit closer to home: it’s a LCD touchscreen with force sensing resistors and piezoelectric actuators that can detect how much pressure is applied and vibrate the panel respectively. Tech-On was rocking the scene at Open House 2010, and reports that the Cover Flow-like interface shuffled icons faster the harder a demonstrator pressed down, an interesting UI quirk in and of itself

Nintendo trims DSi and DSi LL prices in Japan, makes no promises for rest of the world

Angel — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 02:46:00 +0000

Good news for Nippon-based handheld lovers: from June 19, Nintendo will be selling the DSi at a new reduced price of ?15,000 ($165), accompanied by a more affordable DSi LL , which lands at ?18,000 ($198). That will make the jumbo portable console cheaper than the regular-sized one costs today, while the whole effort seems clearly aimed at maintaining the market for Nintendo’s classical wares after it blows all our minds with its 3DS debut at E3 in a couple of weeks
