Evil Controllers' Vision line adds customization and lengthy battery life, we go hands-on

As the Vision controller retains so much of the 360 gamepad's internals, you'll need a wireless dongle to get it working on a PC - a simple charging wire will not enable it for use on anything that doesn't accept Microsoft's wireless signal. But then, if you're buying this, you're probably into console games enough that we don't have to warn you about such things, right. Should you wish to grab your own, the backplate can be purchased as a standalone that you install yourself, or it can be purchased with or without logos.

The Saddest Robots in Japan Live Among the Sins of Sony

On the left is Sony's approximately 12-inch (29cm) tall AIBO robotic dog (Artificially Intelligent RoBOt). It went on sale in 1999, and the first run of 3000 sold out in less than an hour. According to their own figures, in total Sony moved about 150,000 AIBOs across 8 product iterations, which is not bad for a US $2000 robot toy. To doggy's right is the approximately 24-inch (60cm) tall android QRIO (Quest for CuRIOsity). This project began in 2000, and while it never went on sale, as a research & demonstration platform it was and remains now one of the world's most advanced bipedal robots.
