Mad Catz Cyborg M.M.O. 7 gaming mouse hands-on

Mad Catz’ Cyborg RAT series of adjustable computer mice has seen its fair share of minor revisions, and while wireless upgrades and whitewashed DPI tweaks have given consumers a hair of choice in transforming desktop pests, the differences between these devices has been modest, at best. Until now, at least.

Xbox co-creator brings together Atari ‘dream team’ for mobile gaming startup

A new mobile gaming startup that’s yet to release a single game isn’t the sort of thing we’d normally cover ’round here, but the story behind Los Angeles-based Innovative Leisure is anything but ordinary. The man behind the company is the co-creator of the Xbox, Seamus Blackley, and he’s brought with him eleven industry veterans that he calls “the dream team from Atari,” including the likes of Van Burnham, Ed Logg, Rich Adam, Tim Skelly, Owen Rubin, and Ed Rotberg.

NASA debuts two new educational games for iOS, Facebook

NASA is no stranger to apps , but the space agency is branching out further into some new territory with its two latest offerings: a pair of educational games. The first is Sector 33 , an air traffic control simulator for iOS devices that certainly won’t be confused with Flight Control , but which NASA hopes will help teach math and possibly get folks interested in aviation. Those who prefer their games a bit more casual can also now try out NASA’s very first multiplayer Facebook game, Space Race Blast Off , which tests folks’ knowledge of various space-related topics (and is considerably more challenging than it first appears).

Humble Bundle expands to Android with World of Goo, Anomaly and more

The choose-your-own-price Humble Bundle has proven to be a runaway success on desktop platforms — helping fund indie developers and causes like Child’s Play and the EFF alike — and it’s now finally taken the plunge onto mobile devices. That move was kicked off today with the Humble Bundle for Android, which includes the games Anomaly: Warzone Earth , Osmos , and EDGE. Those three are available for any price you choose, but you’ll also get World of Goo thrown in if you pay more than the average price (just over $5 as of this writing).

Angry Birds Outdoor Game Announced

Finally Angry Birds fans can go outside and get some exercise, yet still play Angry Birds with the just announced officially licensed Angry Birds Outdoor Game . Coming this Spring to the UK (sorry US of A, no info on an American release yet), the game is similar to bowling and shuffleboard with players physically throwing Angry Birds at little buildings they make and getting points based on where the pig lands on the mat when it’s knocked off the blocks. Check out the video demo: It all comes in a handy carrying bag
