Mass Effect 3 Receiving Two New DLC Packs On Feb. 26, Mar. 5

There hasn't been an ending to a game as controversial as Mass Effect 3′s as BioWare had to go back and deliver an extended cut DLC in order to calm its rabid fans from completely destroying the Internet. New pieces of DLC have been published for the game over the past couple of months after the release of Mass Effect 3, and today, EA is announcing two pieces of DLC for the game. The first DLC is called Mass Effect 3: Reckoning and is a completely free piece of DLC content that can be used in the game's multiplayer mode to access new character, weapons and upgrades.

Redesigned Buick LaCrosse and Regal spotted

Two more pieces of the nine-model product makeover from Buick and GMC are coming more into focus. Our spy shooters recently managed to capture the 2014 Buick LaCrosse (above) and 2014 Regal (at right) out testing, and it looks like General Motors has big things in store for both models. Based on these images, it looks like we might be seeing the redesigned LaCrosse before we see the refreshed Regal, and we wouldn't be too surprised for one of them making a debut at the Shanghai Motor Show at the end of April.

Some Diablo 3 Gamers React Negatively To Console Idea

As you might have heard, Blizzard announced that they would be bringing Diablo 3 onto the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. It has long been rumored that Blizzard would do such a thing and while the idea of play Diablo 3 on a console might seem like a novel idea, it seems that it might not have been very well received amongst the Diablo community. There was originally a thread about the topic on the Diablo 3 forums but it has since been deleted, but the argument was that Diablo 3 may have originally been designed for the console since the start.

Whiteboard - never leave home without it

If you're like Dr. Sheldon Cooper, you spend a lot of time working in front of a whiteboard.  If you hate finding yourself with a thought but no board upon which to expand your thoughts, you'll want to check out the Noteboard Foldable Pocket Whiteboard from ThinkGeek.  When folded, it has the same footprint as a stack of 3 X 5 index cards, and it unfolds to 15″ X 27″.  Both sides are writable, with one side plain and the other printed with square-inch and square-centimeter grids.  It comes with a dry-erase pen and a case that can double as an eraser for the board.

Mini finally lands its full blackflip

French stuntman Guerlain Chicherit hit the ski slopes of Tignes, France over the weekend – not to enjoy the fresh snow but to perform the first-ever unassisted backlip in a car, which was teased last month. The unassisted part of the stunt comes from the fact that he Chicherit, in a special rally-prepped Mini Countryman, uses a regular, solid ramp rather than any specially modified ramps that have been used in the past to pull off this stunt. Unfortunately, after 18 months of practice, you'd think the video would be more entertaining by showing more closeups or better angles of the stunt.

Swedish designer Eduard Gray, who you've heard of via the Dartz Jo-Mojo and Pombron Nagel concepts and delightful Saab 92010 Sixten concept, is back at the drawing board penning boats and matching supercars.

Jeep's new Chip Away commercial has us hunting Al Pacino's back catalog

Chrysler has done a pretty good job as of late turning its television commercials into pep talks or rallying cries, but for its first ad for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it turned to Al Pacino's inspirational speech from the movie Any Given Sunday. In the movie, Pacino's character talks about how football is a game of inches, but the commercial, titled Chip Away, focuses more on the attention to detail that Jeep has exhibited on its updated flagship SUV.

Arctic P402 Headphones review

When Julie asked if we were interested in some stuff from Arctic, I was more interested in their four-port USB charger that I recently reviewed, but was pleased to see the Arctic P402 headphones in the package. Many headphones these days are either mostly plastic (which means they break easily) or huge and bulky (which means they don't travel well). These, however, are light, on-ear, and quite tough.
