New Doom 3 For Xbox 360 And PlayStation 3 Supports Head-Mounted Displays 
Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land But this is a working Dreamcast inside an iMac G3 case. Modder logicdustbin had some spare G3s and a 15-inch LCD monitor laying around, had a moment of inspiration, and soon the iCast was born.
The New Xbox Experience fixed one outdated aspect of the 360 – its user interface – but there’s still one thing about it that just screams 2005: the disc tray. A tray? Jesus, it’s like rubbing two sticks together to start a fire. This guy has a more elegant solution: rip the disc-sucking-and-spitting mechanism out of an old iMac and put it to better use in a 360. Works like a treat.
The newest iMac revision, announced earlier today at the Apple Town Hall event, not only features an attractive external visual upgrade, the guts are pretty nice, too. The new base iMac comes equipped with the ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT, with upper-tier versions of the iMac featuring the ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO, both DirectX 10 capable video cards. That means, anyone looking to run DirectX 10 supported games like Crysis, BioShock, and Gears of War on their Mac via Boot Camp can do so without having to abandon the comforts of Mac OSX.
Prices range from $US1199 to $US2299 with LCD screens running from 20″ to 24″. For the record, the lowest end iMac in the new configuration just meets the minimum specs for BioShock. Interested gamers with thousands of dollars and Mac gaming on their minds should probably look somewhere in the mid-range. And, yes, you can use a two-button mouse, for Christ’s sake.
This concludes my Apple Computers viral marketing broadcast. (Buy a Mac.)
