    Remember way back in the olden days of yesterday, when "telekinetic's" Super Metroid-inspired Android battery widget was just something you could look at online? Welcome to the future, where you can download it yourself.A free version is available, as is a version attached to a .99 donation – should you want to support telekinetic and co-developer T.J. Simmons' continued efforts to make your phone look like different stuff. Simmons told Joystiq they plan to do similar apps in tribute to "other '90s games."In either case, we'd recommend putting on your Speed Booster and acting quickly, as we suspect this app's home could collapse at any time once the Space Pirates lawyers begin their assault.

    In the latest of Cryptic's Champions Online villain profiles, we get a look at the sexy psyker Mind Slayer. Born of an abusive and broken home life, Mind Slayer's powers only manifested themselves under the extraordinary stress of a mugging by a group of thugs in a dark alley of Chicago's mean streets. She slaughtered her attackers with a hail of deadly telekinetic knives, transforming herself from a naive country girl into a deadly and darkly gifted young woman.As with the previous profiles that Cryptic's artists have put up on their site, they've included an origin comic that gives a slightly better feel for the tone of the character, which in the case of Mind Slayer is dead sexy. We've always loved what we've gotten from the Cryptic team, but the way that they've tied their artists directly into the promotional aspect Champions Online has been an utter delight for all the comic fans on the Massively staff (which is just about everybody). It's definitely worth checking out.
