I have always liked the bold lines of Casio’s G-Shock range. They are almost always reasonably priced and they look great. They can take a bit of a beating too, which is essential if a watch is going to worn around my wrist. It is now twenty-five years since Casio released the first model in the G-Shock line and in order to celebrate, they have something rather special for us, the MRG-8000G. It is available in Japan, the United States, Germany and England. (Read the full post about ‘25th Anniversary Limited Edition G-Shock, Only 200 Available and They are Expensive’…)

Now this is definitely one of the cooler case mods to have graced our pages, especially one that does not involve a PC of any sort but Sony’s PS3 console instead. This case mo was inspired by the Rainbow Six Vegas game, disguised to be a casino tower that one might actually mistake it to be the Wynn. I wonder whether anyone is going to come up a different variation considering that the Wynn’s second tower is nearly complete. This PS3 comes with colorful, bright LEDs along with a tiny Eiffel Tower to signify Paris, a pyramid for Luxor, and little folk to complete the setup. (Read the full post about ‘Vegas PS3 Case Mod’…)
