Gunnar Optiks crafts limited edition Modern Warfare 3 specs, keeps the bad guys in clear sight
Serious gaming requires serious gear, and by the looks of this latest Call of Duty marketing tie-in, you should be decked out in your Modern Warfare finest when that third installment hits stores. Publisher Activision and Gunnar Optiks have teamed up to bring the eyewear company's fatigue-reducing i-AMP lens tech to a branded line of limited edition gaming specs. The $99 glasses, designed with "venting details inspired by... military machinery," are set to hit stores worldwide on November 8th, and can be found stateside as a Best Buy exclusive. Sound like your kind of late-night gaming accessory? Then click past the break for a 20/20 look at the official PR.
Engadget interviews 50 Cent: inside the mind of a hip-hop mogul techie
50 Cent has a tendency to do things big, so it makes sense that he'd use CES as a platform to launch his new line of headphones in collaboration with Sleek Audio. Luckily for us, he's been hanging out in the back of a Gunnar Optiks RV (he's an investor) that just so happens to be parked right next to the Engadget Trailer. 50's been making the rounds with the press here shopping his latest offerings, but we still jumped at the chance to shoot the breeze with a man who's been shot nine times -- and he turns out to be a pretty nice guy. Get a look into the mind of 50 Cent in our interview after the break, including information on 50's secret "batphone" -- for the ladies only, of course.
Gunnar Optiks' swank and stylish 3D specs get the hands on treatment
As expected, CES '10 is all aflutter over 3D -- and as expected, it's the glasses that are the sticking point for most people. What if we told you that you could get really "cool," "stylish" glasses -- ones that look so good that you'd want to wear them all the time? An outfit called Gunnar Optiks is pleased to announce its new i-AMP specs "for the most widely used 3D platforms in gaming and video." Apparently, this guy will become available in Q2 of 2010 (for iZ3D gaming systems and RealD video), at prices starting at $90 -- with prescription eyewear to become available in Q3. But why wait? We took a look, so you can decide for yourself if these are worthy of a repeat viewing of U23D. The Fly is unavailable for comment. %Gallery-81876%
