| In what initially appears to be awesomely innovative, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is going to be the first game that will actually update your Twitter account as you play. You will be able to toggle a bunch of twit-able things such as: connecting to multiplayer, uploading cinema files, level completion, trophies, and earned multiplayer money. Sounds like a great idea and more games should offer this type of connectivity. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves hits retail shelves next month. Anybody else think this is a

| Modern Warfare 2 players are going to love this badass third-party controller. It looks awesome and even has extra buttons on the back so you don’t have to take your thumb off the sticks. Moving your thumb to reload or jump can be dangerous. This baby also sports rubber grips and a “soft-touch finish for extended gaming sessions”, so I guess your hand won’t cramp up. Sadly it’s not wireless, but Mad Catz pledges to provide a “robust and latency free connection with the console.”
Yeah right. They

| Modern Warfare 2 fans have something else to smile about. Infinity Ward has confirmed Microsoft’s plans for a 250GB Xbox 360 Elite with details of a special bundle for the game. The Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition bundle includes the mentioned added capacity along with a custom paint job on the console. There’s also two wireless gamepads and of course the game itself. The bundle should already be available for pre-order for $399, which is a great buy when you price each of the items separately. No word on when the console will hit stores.

| Well looky here. We just got news of an 250GB Xbox 360 and now this. A leaked image of a PlayStation 3 slim bundle for Uncharted 2 that also sports a 250GB hard drive. According to Engadget, they have confirmed that it’s legit, but other than that, there’s no word on when it will be announced or any info on a price or release date. A good guess would be that we will see it hit retail in mid-October alongside Uncharted 2, but no one knows.
Hopefully we will have more details soon. In the meantime, anyone want to guess the

| We’ve been waiting for this one for some time now. An 802.11n adapter for our Xbox 360. It cleared the FCC and has now appeared on a flyer inside a Gears of War 2 Game of the Year edition box in Italy. The guys at Joystiq think that this might indicate that both the original 802.11a/b/g and 802.11n adapter might co-existence in the same market, and who knows, maybe a price cut for the expensive original. All we can do is wait and see.
We’ll see if Microsoft has anything to say about it. [Joystiq]

| Putting HD in your name is all the rage. The thinking must be that if you put HD in your moniker, they will come, buy it, brag about it, be happy and buy your next device as well. So the HTC Leo is jumping on that same bandwagon and laughing maniacally. The Leo, or HD2, is that large and in charge handset that we saw earlier this month. The HTC HD 2 will sport a 4.3-inch display, which is awesome for video and it looks like it will have a micro-USB connector as well.

| Right on cue, Mary Jo Foley has chimed in with her expert opinion on the latest Project Pink rumor. Weekend gossip that has Microsoft and Sharp "unleashing" a pair of slider phones codenamed "Turtle" (pictured above) and "Pure" in January (likely at CES). JoFo thinks that it's possible that the rumored handsets could be announced in January, but any phone from Microsoft's Pink skunkworks project wouldn't launch until Windows Mobile 7 was ready, an OS not expected to ship on consumer devices until the end of 2010. Still, a January announce certainly aligns with the modern

| You know us, we're the epitome of patience. Always waiting for things so patiently. But you know what we can't wait another second for? An 802.11n adapter for our Xbox 360. The good news is that the thing looks positively imminent, after an FCC showing this week and now an appearance on a flyer inside a Gears of War 2 Game of the Year edition box in Italy. Can't you just taste the 802.11n wafting over the Atlantic? The eternal optimists over at Joystiq also think that this flier might point to a co-existence of both types of WiFi adapter, and potentially a price cut for

The Xbox 360 has been around for quite some years already, but good thing this product life cycle is much longer lasting compared to its predecessor, giving gamers the opportunity to enjoy their favorite titles on the Xbox 360 for many more years before having to start building up a new game library all over again with the next console release. Microsoft and Activision have teamed up to bring gamers the Xbox 360 Modern Warfare 2 Limited Edition Console, where it will not only come with the Xbox 360 itself, it will also
