TN Game's Third Space Vest gives gaming an added realism
Like a game of Laser Tag in front of your TV, these Third Space Vests can emulate the feeling of being shot when playing your first-person shooters. Mmm, added realism, tasty.
They’ve been created by Mark Ombrellaro, a physician who was inspired by medical vests used when training medical staff. According…
Shiny Video Review: My Sims limited edition accessories
I recently got my Nintendo-hungry hands on some of the limited edition accessories created to publicise the launch of My Sims, the Nintendo game available on the DS and Wii, and coerced our fashion editor, Gemma, into modelling them for me. And, err, explaining…

Tokyo Flash gives users a taste of Tokyo with the 'Kyokusen' watch
I don’t think I know a single person who doesn’t love Tokyo Flash watches, but then, I don’t think I know a single person who actually knows how to read the time on one of their famously-complicated watch faces.
The Japanese company has a new model out, ‘Kyokusen’, which has apparently been inspired by Tokyo, as shown through the digital tubes, curved lines and bright lights. ‘Kyokusen’ means ‘curved lines’ in Japanese, and…

Think Geek's Star Wars slippers demand you choose between forces
I love how these Star Wars slippers from ThinkGeek epitomises geekiness in every extremity. Can you imagine sitting back, playing Lego Star Wars on your PS2, and having these bad boys warming your tootsies up?
As with all decisions you make in life, there’s the good and the bad option – do you sheath your feet in Jed-friendly Yodas, or evil Sith-like Darth Vaders? The decisions, the decisions. After you’ve tossed up the pros…
Shiny Video Review: Marks & Spencer's £149 iPod-compatible suit
At the risk of sounding arrogant, I think this video review is my best yet. But that’s only because I was joined by the lovely Stuart Waterman, our Production Assistant here at Shiny Media, who is possibly the World’s Wittiest Man. Be kind to him, it was his ever first video, bless.
In today’s video, we look at the iPod-compatible suit jacket from Marks and Spencer. Simply connect your iPod to the attachment inside…
Vision Magane Japan launch the MyDo eyeSonic earphone glasses
Bless the Japanese, the world would be an awful place without their crazy inventions and Hello Kittyfied products.
A company out there, Vision Magane, has announced some new glasses which literally make my eyes bleed just looking at them. The MyDo eyeSonic specs contain bone conduction earphones, so sound vibrations reach…
Hug Shirt from CuteCircuit allows you to send hugs via Bluetooth
Bluetooth accessories for mobiles tend to revolve around Nathan Barley-esque headsets or dinky little speakers, so it’s refreshing to see a company like CuteCircuit thinking outside the box.
They’ve designed a product called Hug Shirt which pretty much does what it says on the label, with the Bluetooth sensors and actuators attached to the shirt allowing you to send a hug to a friend who’s also wearing the shirt. This is all well and good, until of course you inevitably meet up that evening, as after sending hugs…
