One of the biggest annoyances with couch co-op gaming is constantly trying to find that second controller.  Thrustmaster agrees, that's why they are selling new combo packs of their T-Wireless controllers for the PC and PS3.  The pair of controllers work on both systems out of the box and come in black and white colors.  

There are a fair number of PC games just around the corner, some of which have been 10 years in the making (good to finally see you again Diablo), while others put you and your friends into the shoes of military with the latest tech in Ghost Recon Future Soldier. Your PC may be up to the task of rendering these games in all their glory, but are your mouse and keyboard ready?

It's time for another ears on look at a pair of headsets. This time we're looking at the Razer Chimaera 5.1 headsets, Mass Effect 3 edition. Do these full wireless headsets live up to our co-op standards? Does Commander Shepard approve of the chat quality for squad commands? Find out in our latest review.

3D gaming and movies seem to be all the rage these days.  Every big theatrical release touts it's 3D viewing and several big games tout their compatibility with 3D on the PlayStation 3 and PC.  Most home 3D viewing is done using a system that requires a set of big glasses that use alternating eyes to give the impression of 3D.  But there's another method that's a lot less expensive and a lot closer to the experience you'd find in a movie theater - and that's polarized.  Over the past few weeks I've been using a new monitor from AOC that uses this method to display 3D images.  

The next great console is here and believe it or not, it's a portable. What's that you say? Yes, I truly believe what we have here is one of the first portable consoles to date in the PlayStation Vita. Here's why.

One problem I've always had with the current generation of active 3D glasses is that they just make the image on the screen appear darker.  Today, NVIDIA has launched their 3D Vision 2 glasses for monitors, projectors and TVs that promise to alleviate that issue while also being a lighter and longer lasting pair of 3D glasses.  The glasses are redesigned to be lighter and made from softer materials so wearing them isn't quite a burden, but the really attractive features of this kit is when you pair it with a new Light Boost capable display.

There's a new 320-gigabyte hard disk drive right around the corner for Xbox 360 Slim owners who'd like to upgrade their download capability. The same drive that was included in the recently-released Gears of War 3 edition console and will be included with the Star Wars-themed R2-D2 console available this December, it will be on shelves as a standalone addition to your current Xbox 360 Slim (only) for $129.99 US.

We already know that Call of Duty Elite will offer a bunch of features for free, but what we don't know is exactly what we'll be getting if we decide to subscribe to the service.  During Call of Duty XP this weekend, Activision unveiled the plans for the service.  The cost for a one year subscription is $49.99 and here's what you'll get.

One of our biggest complaints about Microsoft's Kinect peripheral is the huge amount of living room real estate required to play.  You need a pretty big area if you want  to co-op a game.  The Nyko Zoom reduces this required space by up to 40%, so now you can play Dance Central in your cubicle!  You know you want to.  The three lens design is sleek and simple.  Snap the device into place and you're ready to go.  

A surprise interview for me at E3 was with Razer founder Robert Krakoff at the company's booth.  After touring some new products on display we sat down for a relaxing chat about the company, PC gaming, and our gaming habits.  

It's time once again for the E3 rumor mill to start churning up some great stuff before the show. This year the big buzz is around the new Nintendo console (code named "Project Cafe" for now, but also referred to as WiiHD and Wii2), as some preliminary specs (or rumors of specs) have begun to surface. The new system itself has been confirmed by Nintendo, shooting for a 2012 launch, but the rest is all bits and pieces found from various sources. Here's what we're hearing so far.

Our latest hardware review focuses on a premium set of speakers from PC manufacturer Antec. Designed to simulate 3D audio out of 2 speakers, the Soundscience Rokus 3D 2.1 might be perfect for those with limited space for a full 5.1 system. We dive into the system in our latest review.

For PC Gamers, the keyboard plays a huge role in your gaming experience. It doesn't matter what type of gamer or game you like to play - nine times out of ten you'll be using a keyboard for input. We take a look at a keyboard from Razer called BlackWidow Ultimate. Can you say mechanical keys?

Psyko Audio have announced two new headsets for the co-op gamer both based on the same technology found in their Psyko 5.1 Headset.  These cans are unique, because instead of using computer simulation to create surround sound out of two speakers in your ears, they actually contain 5 speakers in the band and utilize a physics based technology to create real surround sound.  

The Nintendo 3DS is here and Co-Optimus has the full review of the system and 4 of the launch titles. While, sadly, there's nothing on display in co-op...yet, there's a lot of stuff to talk about with the 3DS. Obviously 3D is first and foremost, but this little machine has more to offer than that.
