Edison Returns to Hong Kong in Time for Sony’s Asian Game Show 2010

The bad boy of digital photos returns to get his game on!

Yeah, we thought we’d never be lucky enough to post another photo of Edison Chen here again, but who remembers 24 months ago anyways?

If you are trapped in Hong Kong this holiday season and are into Playstation then Sony has the cure for boredom with their annual Asian Game Show! Three days of gaming and girls dressed as video game characters is as close to a true Christmas gift to Neonpunch.com readers as we can imagine starring our favorite mobile phone photographer as this year’s AGS Ambassador.

And he’s bringing a few big video game superstars with him like Metal Gear Solid’s Hideo Kojima and Monster Hunter’s Ryozo Tsujimoto with him.

We’d love to send you to http://www.asiagameshow.com/ but there’s not much there now – better luck trying their Facebook group for more information.

Playstation Move Shakes Up Hong Kong with Launch Games and Starter Packs

More info from Sony’s new PS3 device.

Following up on this earlier post here are more details on the Playstation Move launch in Hong Kong.

We loved playing archery on Sports Champions but without a doubt the best game was Kung Fu Rider – where you play an insane office worker riding an office chair around the streets of Hong Kong kung-fu kicking people as you ride by them.

Its definitely going to be a fun add-on to your PS3, but we’ll hold judgement on buying a P3S for it until we see the Kinect. Definitely better graphics than the Nintendo Wii and you can watch your Blu-ray movies when you get tired.

Video, photos and prices are below:

Belkin Mini DisplayPort Converter Lets You Play Console Games On Your iMac

This neat adapter allows you to view HD content on your iMac

Got an iMac? Then you should definitely consider buying this Mini DisplayPort Converter for 27”iMac from Belkin. This adapter takes an HDMI input at up to 1080p and squeezes it into a Mini DisplayPort connector at 720p for display, letting you enjoy graphics from your Sony PS3 or Xbox 360 on your lovely iMac. Audio signal is also split for stereo-out and it’s HDCP-compliant.

This device will require you to fork out US$150/HK$1170, which is an awful lot for a converter box with a single input. But in Hong Kong apartments it makes a world of sense if you want to keep all your toys together in your study and for you alone to play with! Bwa-hahahaha!

Ahem, yes well, there you have it. More info here.
