| Star Wars R2-D2 droid fitted with eight retro gaming consoles, sound system and projector Posted: 23 Sep 2009 12:00 PM PDT
A PopSci reader, probably out of boredom, decided to convert a life-size Star Wars R2-D2 droid cooler into the ultimate mobile retro gaming system — complete with its own sound system and video projector.
The R2-D2 houses a Xbox, PlayStation 1 & 2, Sega Genesis, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, GameCube and Dreamcast (I may be wrong but those are the controllers I recognize). The other peripherals are probably for specialized game genres.
While it’s a cool looking idea, I frankly can’t imagine where the game media would go. I mean, all I see are controller ports on the front. The R2-D2 droid has also been fitted with a sound system along with a projector on its top dome (pretty much the same as the real Star Wars counterpart). It would’ve been nice to see the thing in video, actually working. [via PopSci] See also:

| Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut (DVD/Blu-ray) to be released on November 3, 2009 Posted: 22 Sep 2009 08:30 PM PDT
More concrete details for the 5-disc DVD/4-disc Blu-ray release of Watchmen: Ultimate Collector’s Edition has been released by Warner. The Ultimate release of Watchmen also includes Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comic which can be purchased separately in DVD or Blu-ray format.
What your essentially getting with this Watchmen release is a longer movie, with the animated Tales of the Black Freighter woven seamlessly into the movie for added depth to the plot/story, and a couple of additional features here and there. The DVD release will come in 5-discs while the Blu-ray will come in 4-discs. Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut is scheduled for release on November 3, 2009 which is a full month early from the initial December 2009 announcement in the flier.
