At 84 years old, the legendary comics god Stan Lee is showing no signs of slowing down. Right now he's out there hawking a really cool video game called "Marvel Ultimate Alliance," preparing for a second season of "Who Wants to Be a Superhero?," and doing cameo roles in basically...

Jennifer Aniston's face adorns the cover of this week's New York Times Magazine. Despite her current remarks in the interview therein about how annoying it is when people take camera phone pictures of her and sell them to feed their family, Ms. Aniston would like to reassure you that she loves images of herself as much as you do. After all, she's done photo shoots with about 8,000 magazines this month, most of which have already folded. Is she a hypocrite? We'll give her a break, and let the author of The Rules give her some helpful advice about dealing with her anger:

Despite posing for Vogue and every other magazine imaginable, Aniston only likes it when the mainstream media profits for her image, as she relates in the NYT interview:

Q: How much do you hate cameras on phones?

A: My favorite move is when people pretend that they’re on the phone and they kind of dial and take the picture at the same time. You hope they’re doing it for themselves — that they're not thinking, I’m going to dine out on you.

Yes, Jen, an image of you is worth about 5.2 meals in this economy. They're just doing what they can to survive.

The New York Post, perhaps miffed that they didn't get their own cover of Aniston scowling, quoted author of The Rules Ellen Fein with some advice for Jen:

"Breaking up is never easy, but it doesn't have to be humiliating...Never mention Brad's or John Mayer's name in public. Also, don't say any thing bad about him ("he's missing a sensitivity chip"). Never talk about Angelina or call her "uncool," even if she was uncool. She does not exist in your world. Never date a man or take a man back who humiliated you publicly or held a press conference to explain your breakup. Go to parties where there are lots of single men and ask everyone you know to set you up. You're going to be 40 soon. You have no time to waste if you want kids."

Yipes.

Software lets travelers create their own virtual PC on the road.

A disappointing game might not be awful. But there's a nagging feeling that, for whatever reason, the game just failed to live up to its potential.

5. Assassin's Creed

It's got some fantastic ideas, an amazing graphics engine, tight controls, and some of the best animation that we've seen so far. So what exactly went wrong? A poorly judged interest curve is a bad start, with a slow beginning and intrusive tutorial. As the game goes on though, the repetitive mission structure begins to drag, and the game's lack of a decent stealth mechanic does little to help. Promising, clever, fun, but not all that it could have been and ultimately disappointing.

Two more instalments to come, says Crytek boss Cevat Yerli.
Crysis a trilogy? Yep, according to Crytek boss Cevat Yerli the developer is planning two more games.

Just one of the many launch day stories we have of the Wii being sold out:

Buying a Wii on launch day (trying to) OR :"Why you can't get freaking anything without camping out until midnight anymore."

As I walked into the Best Buy in Farmington, New Mexico, fifteen minutes after it had opened, I was greeted by two employees, who were repeatedly shouting, "WHEEEEEEEEEE!" over and over again. They were standing behind a table that had boxes on it, so I figured this was the right place, and walked over.

"You sir, you look as though you could use a Wii hat," said the first one.

"Why do you need a Wii hat you ask?" The second one butted in. They obviously had a routine going.

"Good question! It keeps your head warm!"

"It boosts your confidence!"

"You can store games in it, all this and more."

"You should pick up a Wii hat right now!" One of them said, lifting up one of the boxes he had at his table, which I could now see did not contain Wiis, but instead had Wii hats inside them.

"Especially since we have no more Wiis in stock," the other mumbled very quickly.

They went back to shouting "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" as I shuffled back to my car.

Asus says it newest smartphone, the P565, will sport a 800MHz processor making it the "fastest" in the world.

An anonymous reader writes "Saul Hansell from the New York Times spoke with Microsoft's J. Allard, formerly of the Xbox games division and now in charge of their push on Apple's captive audience with the Zune. Allard lays out Microsoft's media battle plan, highlighting their longterm goals for expanding beyond games and software. 'This service will at some point add more options for video and mobile phones, Mr. Allard said, without offering details. Actually, Microsoft has been quite successful selling video downloads and online movie rentals through the Xbox Live service already. This seems a bit too much like the initial plan for MSN. This new network would be the switchboard through which all entertainment content and communication flows. Pretty much everything else in the technology world now is revolving around open systems where the Internet, and some simple standards, are in the middle.'"

Watch the clip "Hotel" from 'Hitman' starring Timothy Olyphant.

The consumer electronics industry showed off a few of its hottest upcoming gadgets Tuesday, and we've got pictures.

The format war has been ongoing for over a year, and despite the fact there is no clear winner, Blu-ray has gone so far as issuing press releases in the past to declare itself victorious.

But it seems Sony has now realized it's not in the ring with a push-over, and winning the format war is not going to be as simple as the cocky Blu-ray camp has boasted it to be.

Going into the all-important holiday season, Toshiba has been hawking its players for as low as $200 in the U.S., while the cheapest Blu-ray players are twice as much.

Furthermore, Sony seems to be suffering from, er, Blu-balls, after Paramount Pictures announced it was going to put out to HD DVD exclusively.

Okay, we'll ignore the canard that the Democratic wins in Tuesday's election somehow buoy the spirits of terrorists and just focus on the actual, um, "art" in today's Sean Delonas cartoon: the phallic weaponry isn't actually bad (although, as a recurring obsession of Sean's, you'd think he'd be able to draw penises better) but the noses? C'mon, is this Bigoted Cartooning 101? Everyone knows that schnozzes like that go on Jews.

The movie business is a competitive one. No surprise there, but here's the downside: Every film that gets the green light needs to trump the one before it. For example, it can't just be a serial killer; its needs to be the most gruesome serial killer ever known to man. When the stakes keep rising, how do you know when to stop? Enter: The Akula Job.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that Impact Films has picked up the heist action title The Akula Job, penned by relative newcomer Mark Distefano (Friends and Enemies). The film will be about a high stakes jewel heist that -- get ready for this -- has to take place aboard a moving submarine 600 feet underwater. I don't want to jump to conclusions about this one but, for some reason, the fact that the movie will be produced by the same people who brought us DOA and The Hole gives me this sinking feeling in my stomach. I wonder why?

Add to that the fact that there is already a glut of heist movies on the go and the production seems a little unnecessary, not to mention downright silly. No casting announcements have been made as of yet, but really, when a movie is about robbing a submarine, does it really matter?

In this report, IGN states:

"Sony Computer Entertainment has confirmed to us that its bruised PlayStation Network title Pain is slated for release around the end of this month. The hopeful date is November 29th, though as the company works to secure a worldwide release for the title, that date could slip back about a week.

The game is centered around tossing your on-screen persona out of a giant slingshot and into various objects, people, monkeys and more scattered around a city. For extended coverage on the game, have a look-see right here."

eMusic has reached more than 350,000 subscribers to its digital music download service, and now has more than three million tracks available for download, all encoded using MP3.

Putting desktops on the 'Twiggy' diet.

Virtual desktop company Parallels has launched a desktop calculator that it claimed will make it easier for organisations to work out the cost savings involved in adopting a virtual desktop infrastructure.The company has been hard at work promoting virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) as a technology. This is where traditional PCs are being replaced by thin clients where the operating system and applications are held on servers elsewhere. The company said that although there are some strong financial incentives for businesses to adopt such a strategy, take-up has so far been very slow.However, Russell Blackburn, Parallels' country manager for UK and Ireland said that could be about to change. "The two main barriers to VDI adoption at the moment are user acceptance and the expected ROI for IT departments. The first is easy to address as users will instantly find the experience of a virtual desktop the same as a physical one," he said.The calculator has been designed to show the levels of savings that could be made by moving to a VDI environment. Blackburn said that companies could quickly ascertain the financial advantages. "Our calculator helps address the second barrier by taking into account factors such as hardware, application and power consumption costs to demonstrate a base-level of savings that can be made," he said.If anything, Blackburn said, the calculator underestimates the savings. "It doesn't actually account for the cost of management, which is dramatically reduced with VDI as your physical estate is essentially much smaller. So the calculator is effectively a tool that can be used to understand how Parallels VDI can achieve up to 50 percent savings compared to other technologies. We're confident that the actual savings in terms of time and costs will end-up much higher," he added.

Scattered among the $500 to $1,000 desktop computers available at Walmart.com, one machine stands out. It doesn't have a unique design, but its price tag looks like a typo: $199. Prices for consumer electronics goods, ranging from high-definition televisions to mobile phones, drop consistently, but few products have more potential to impact a person's ability to learn or find work than a computer.

Slashgamer Writes: "Man, us geeks/nerds are apparently the most romantic beings in the universe. A couple of weeks ago we showed a video of a gamer using the LittleBigPlanet level creator to propose to his now Fiance. Now another gamer went even further."

Ray Maguire, MD of Sony Computer Entertainment, believes that the launch of a new, cheaper edition PlayStation 3 will help push sales of the console in the UK "well through the million mark".

In an interview published in the latest Edge magazine, Maguire states: "by the time [Edge] goes to press we'll be at around about 500,000 PS3 sales in the UK, and through Christmas we'll take that well through the million mark".

Comic and Film-inspired titles join F.E.A.R. and Guild Wars expansions and Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam on this week's release calendar.

"TimeShift may not be Halo 3 or The Orange Box, but with its entertaining single player game and cleverly implemented multiplayer, it?s well worth a look. In fact, with a decent online community this could become one of the most interesting multiplayer shooters out there. Still have doubts? Chances are they?ll disappear around the time you sticky grenade an enemy twenty metres into the sky in slow motion, separating him from his weapon, which spins gracefully through the air into your waiting arms. Or perhaps it?ll be the first time you stop an opponent dead in his tracks with a perfectly thrown time stop bubble and unload clip after clip into his soon to be dead body. Good times". - IGN AU
