Motorola Aura Celestial Edition

Posted in Motorola by Conner Flynn on July 1st, 2009

Motorola Aura Celestial EditionMotorola has unveiled the Celestial Edition of its Motorola Aura to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the moon landing. It’s the standard Aura that you know and love with extras like original NASA content from the moon landing. You’ll get video footage and stills as well as historic audio clips like “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”, and “The Eagle has landed”.

All of this is somewhat fitting, since Motorola was the company that provided the original radio transponder aboard Apollo 11 that relayed the first words and visuals from the moon to Earth. Nothing on pricing yet, but I’m sure it will be expensive.

Samsung F480 Games Edition unveiledFirst launched in the spring of 2008, the Samsung F480 is Samsung’s most successful touchscreen phone to date. It’s sold more than 5 million units worldwide (under various names. You may know it as the Samsung TouchWiz, Samsung Toco or Samsung F488. Yeah, it has an identity crisis).

Anyhow, now the F480 comes in a Games Edition, with five full games pre-installed, including “Pacman”, “Who wants to be a millionaire 2009″ and “Millenium Poker.” Those names don’t seem all that exciting to us, but your mileage may vary. Aside from that feature, the Samsung F480 Games Edition looks to have the same features of the original phone: QVGA touchscreen display, 5MP autofocus camera, Bluetooth and HSDPA connectivity.

Clue goes geek with Dungeons and Dragons Edition

Posted in Games by Conner Flynn on November 24th, 2008

Clue goes geek with Dungeons and Dragons EditionSay you’re a Clue fan who finds the game a little stale after so many years and you also really really love D&D. Here’s what you need to get yourself this Christmas. Find out who killed the Archmage. Any of the 6 players could be the evil doppleganger.

Was it Tordek the Dwarf Fighter with the Flaming Battle Axe in the Library of Arcane Tomes? Or maybe it was Lidda the Halfling Rogue with the Dagger of Venom in the Magical Armory? Or perhaps Nebin the Gnome Wizard with the Mace of Disruption in the Chamber of Tricks & Traps?

It’s as if thousands of geek minds suddenly cried out, at the prospect. But in agony or ecstasy? The game is like standard Clue but with a D&D twist. All the rooms, weapons, and characters have been changed to a D&D theme. You also get a deck of Wandering Monster cards. When you draw one you have to fight one of the six monsters. If you do this and win, you gain an advantage and can look at your opponent’s deck or get an extra turn. Lose your battle with the monster and get sent to the maze in the middle of the board where you have to roll a die to get out. Comes with six pewter characters and six pewter weapons.

Nokia N96 Bruce Lee edition

Nokia N96 Bruce Lee editionUnleash your inner Karate master with the Nokia N96 Bruce Lee Edition. Yes, it comes with a Bruce Lee doll. It’s awesome yes and no doubt when you use the phone, it makes your voice all out of synch with your mouth like any good karate flick, but sadly it is exclusive to Hong Kong. Expensive too at about $1,286 US bucks, but we’re still tempted. Hopefully we see more phone/doll bundles in the near future. Maybe Chuck Norris and that wandering Kung Fu dude.
