Two Drink Cooler Gadgets to Plug into Your Xbox 360

29 06 2007

How many times have you prepared for a long session of fragging by getting your favorite icy cold beverage, whether that be a beer, a soda, or in my case your favorite cream liqueur (no, I am not high maintenance!) and some delicious munchies before settling into the comforts of your couch? You begin your gaming and time slips away from you. Before you know it, an hour or so has sped by and you find yourself a bit thirsty from those salty snacks you have been munching on. You reach for your beverage, take a quick swig, and wince from the lukewarm temperature it has acquired. Yuck!

Well now that can be an incident of the past. One of the nice things about the XBox 360 is that you can plug in small USB powered devices and enjoy their benefits. Feeling a little hot? Grab that USB powered fan and get cooled down. Enjoying some delicious hot chocolate (that was for you Drew) while sniping your buddy’s face off? Plug in that USB powered beverage warmer and keep it hot for a few hours. Now with these two handy beverage coolers, you can also keep your favorite frosty beverage … well, frosty.

Hot Topic has two new Halo 3 shirts out. They are not my style at all (what, no pink?) but I know some of you will like them.

Female Sanghelli Entries Found on Deviant Art

Well, there’s nothing wrong with a little unusual artwork now and then. This, however, may be pushing the envelope. The latest Halo Articulated entry, and Major Dump’s recent comedy image made me me wonder about these ‘missing’ Elite characters in Halo.

(Maybe there’s a good reason why we havent seen any female Sanghelli yet?)

Prepare for the wierdness.

When you have some free time, browse through some of their galleries and check out all their work. The subject matter is fascinating if you are a Halo fan, and there is some great talent hidden in there. Enjoy!
