Diablo 3

Blizzard – the masterminds behind Warcraft, Starcraft, World of Warcraft and other addicting PC games – are back again with the latest edition of Diablo.

Diablo 3 will feature five new character classes including the Witch Doctor, a new approach to in-game health, a new Rune system, and a 1-on-1 dueling system. You’ll also get to play with the online Auction House functionality (that Blizzard has been working on for years now), selling items for either in-game gold or even real money.

The game is available tonight at midnight, so stock up on the Red Bull, take your paid vacation, and let your friends know they won’t be seeing you for a few weeks.

I Suck at Girls

Most of you have probably heard of Shit My Dad Says, from what started as a popular Twitter feed, went viral and eventually got turned into a book.

Of course he also talks about the bits of wisdom he received from his dad. But this time he includes new funny characters as well, like his brother and even his first boss.

As Jimmy Kimmel put it, “If you don’t think this book is hilarious, I will kill you and sue you.”

Scarface With Limited Edition Humidor

Just when you thought you’d seen every fathomable product that caters almost exclusively to the male ego (e.g. Hummer, Harley-Davidson, Playboy…), well, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.

So you’re a Scarface fan and cigar afficianado, right? And you’ve got a thousand-large to blow on something that’ll likely piss off the girlfriend or wife? Consider the Scarface Blu-ray collection with Limited Edition Humidor. Handcrafted of fine, untreated Spanish cedar and laden with, literally, dozens of coats of varnish, there’s only 1,000 of these babies available.

For the price, though, I’m thinking “shouldn’t they throw in at least a few fine, imported stogies with my copy of say-hello-to-my-little-friend Scarface humidor??”

The Impossible Collection of Cars

It’s only natural that a book about the 100 most exceptional cars of the 20th century should in itself be as high end and stylish as the vehicles featured in it. You can’t drive it on the highway but you can sure admire its sleek lines.Printed on cotton paper, the same stuff they print archival documents and even money on because it lasts forever, and presented in a black rubber box with a cutout metal plate, this gorgeous volume features not only the most notable car designs all the way from a 1909 Blitzen Benz to a 1997 Porsche 993, but also cars made famous by the people who drove them, like Elvis and Picasso.

Text is by Pulitzer Prize-winner Dan Neil, autmotive columnist for the Wall Street Journal. The guy knows cars, and clearly knows how to put together a jaw-droppingly awesome book about them.
