Pac-Man Seats


Bruno Marques made several seats called the "Pac Seat".  According to Marques he made the chairs specifically for children, taking on inspiration from arcade games in the 90's.  The seats were made with polypropylene (The More You Know, right?)

"This chair was designed for children taking as inspiration the immortalization of an icon of the arcade games of the 90s."

You can view the page for his project here, and you can view the rest of his projects here.

PS4 Prototype Controller


This is apparently the prototype of the upcoming PlayStation 4's new controller, there's clear similarities to the current PlayStation 3 controller however it looks obese; almost like a cross between the Xbox 360 and the PS3 controller.  There are also other differences including a speaker, an unknown port (I'm guessing it's an audio port), a new d-pad, a move sensor (<sarcasm>woo - more interactive games </sarcasm>) and a "possible share button".  

Here are the different PlayStation controllers, from PS2 to the PS4 prototype. 





In unrelated news, I just finished BBC's Sherlock series and OH MY GOSH. Can't wait for season 3.

'Up' Inspired Hot Air Balloon


The imgur user upvoteHero took pictures of the hot air balloon inspired by the Movie 'Up'. There isn't really much else to talk about, except how it must have a crappy view considering the 'basket' doesn't look very see through - or it has a great view if you're terrified of heights. I'd rather just be playing Xbox.

Officially Licensed TARDIS Computer Case


I'm posting this just in time for Christmas, the British computer retailer Scan has started selling a computer which is in the shape of the Doctor Who Tardis. I don't really know why I'm blogging about Doctor Who because I've never even seen an episode, in fact, Doctor Who? Who? You see, I'm hilarious. Ask any of my virtual "girlfriends".



The Doctor Who Tardis PC Chassis is available from the low price of £935.99, you can customise it how you like up to £1,947.55, which in my opinion would make a good insurance claim. JK I'm a good boy.
