Deep-fried graphene may be the key to long-lasting batteries
The deep frying process isn't just useful for livening up your food -- it might also be the ticket to better batteries in your mobile devices. South Korean researchers have created highly conductive, stable electrode materials by spraying graphene oxide droplets into a very hot blend of acid and organic solvent, much like you'd dip chicken into oil. The resulting "pom-poms" (what you see above) aren't at all tasty, but their open 3D structure makes them far better for transferring electrical charges than plain graphene.
Full Auto 2 heads to PSP, avoids Xbox 360
Full Auto 2 for PLAYSTATION 3 is supposed to be a remarkable improvement over the Xbox 360's original Full Auto. The vehicular combat game features tons of new content on Sony's next-gen machine: new levels, new cars and new modes. But, it appears that SEGA is making an even better version... and no, it's not coming out on Xbox 360.It's coming to PlayStation Portable. The PSP version of Full Auto 2 will feature an additional 56 single-player missions, new weapons and 15 new vehicles designed exclusively for the PSP version. The port is being handled by Deep Friend Entertainment, a team dedicated solely on PSP development.[Via 1UP]
Sega sends us Deep Fried goodness
Sega's support of the PSP so far has been pretty pathetic in the US. But that looks like it's all about to change. We're excited about their upcoming games, though: Sega Genesis Collection and Sonic Rivals being their two most noteworthy titles heading to our system. Today, they announced a partnership with Vancouver-based Deep Fried Entertainment to work on PSP games. We don't know what they're working on, but the staff has worked on games such as MDK2, NFL Gameday, Baldur's Gate, and the Need for Speed: Underground series. Having a team dedicated to the PSP is a great idea: it means we'll see more games from Sega, and that's always a good thing.[Via Gamespot]
