    DDR Alarm Clock Takes Your Fingers Back to 2003

    Dance, dance to much booty in the, um, wrists? Your fingers have to dance like they've never danced before to shut off the alarm. Hope you don't suck at Tap Tap Revenge. $16. [Thumbsupuk via OhGizmo via Engadget]

    Rambus Comes Out of Dark, Sues Nvidia for Patent Infringement

    It's been a while since we've heard anything about memory maker Rambus, but the company has come back into the light to sue Nvidia for patent infringement. Rambus thinks that Nvidia's use of SDR, DDR, DDR2, DDR3, GDDR, and GDDR3 SDRAM in their products violates 17 (count 'em... 17!) patents that Rambus owns. Those chips sit inside all sorts of Nvidia gear, and apparently Rambus has been trying for a settlement for years. Now it's using the legal system to claim cash for the damages. Bad news for Nvidia, but Rambus is still apparently trying "to continue discussions with Nvidia to reach a negotiated settlement.” I bet. [BusinessWire]

    Looks like the only rhythm game Red Octane cares about anymore is Guitar Hero, as they've categorically denied making new dance pads for the 360—or any other system: "There are no immediate plans to create new dance pads outside of the current products available." [Kotaku]

    Laser Dance Matrix: No Black Required

    The Laser Dance Matrix is the brainchild of Applied Sciences. It's a DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) pad matrix for getting down up, up, right, back style. But instead of relying on pressure sensitivity as most pads do, the Laser Dance Matrix senses foot position based upon breaking the proper laser beams (we're assuming in the correct places, though you might be able to cheat). Dancing occurs right on the floor. More »

    Dealzmodo Irony: Free USB Dancing Gamepad, from Kraft

    Kraft, the company that I exclusively associate with the oh-so-fattening (and delicious) mac & cheese, has this odd deal on their site. They are giving away a free DDR-style dancing pad for the PC and free copies of the DDR knock-off, StepMania. They do want you to pay shipping, which is $6, but that isn't too bad for a fun game that could work off pounds and pounds of mac & cheese. –Travis Hudson More »

    Handheld DDR Pads

    These are handheld pads designed use with the Playstation versions of the game Dance Dance Revolution (DDR). Before you blow your lid yelling at the fat kids of today who won't even play exercise-inducing games, hear me out. I used to be one of those DDR-playing kids back in the day, and when I didn t want to spend hours at the arcade and had too much money to count, I enjoyed playing DDR with my fingers. Not only did playing DDR on my computer with the arrow keys improve my hand-eye coordination, it also helped me memorize the songs and beats so that I could further impress the ladies at the arcade. And at $23, these are a must have for any DDR aficionado like the former me (before I took up smoking and learned to love oven-pizza). More »

    DDR For The TI-83, TI-84

    File this under "Awesomeness". Some dude actually took the time to "port" DDR to BASIC for the TI-83/TI-84 calculators. Unlike the original DDR where you must use your feet to dance like a complete jackass, this one lets you use your fingers. By using the directional pad on the calculator, you have to "type" with the beat. While I'm sure this will bring joy to all high school students bored in math class, I'm skeptical as to how fast this runs on a TI-83 or TI-84. More »

    Hands On: I am the Guitar Hero!

    Ever want to pretend you can play a bunch of popular songs on guitar even though you can barely strum along to an A chord? Well now's your chance to redeem yourself with Guitar Hero for the PS2. Guitar Hero uses an awesome miniature guitar controller to help you rock out to songs like "I Wanna Be Sedated" among other classics. You have a strumming controller by the bridge and 5 seperate buttons along the neck that act as frets. The game makes you hold a combination of the fret buttons down while strumming in time to the song. It's extremely fun and easy to pick up if you play guitar or bass, but takes a few tries to get the hang of it if you're like John (It's okay, we all fail at something in life sooner or later muahahaha). The guitar controller even has a whammy bar for making solos extra unique in certain situations. Overall, Guitar Hero is a pretty nice adaption of DDR to the guitar. Don't break a finger with all that shredding though, mkay?

    Dance Dance Fire Fire

    This is an improved version of DDR with a little a better reward/punishment system called Dance Dance Immolation. In normal DDR depending on how good and bad you do affects your score. In this version of DDR, if you are doing well, a machine blasts flames into the air wowing the crowd. Don t let those flames distract you, because if you do badly the same machine shoots you with blasts of fire Unfortunately for the crowd, there are safety precautions: a full aluminized proximity suit with gloves, hood, the whole nine yards. They plan on showcasing this "fun game" at Burning Man 2005. More »
