Spam has gotten a voice. The AP is reporting that last week, an MP3 file touting a penny stock turned up in Inboxes around the world, encouraging people to invest in a company called Exit Only Inc.

This is a common spam scam. People bite on the sales pitch, buy the stock, and drive up the price. Then the scammers sell their shares, and bail out. In this case, though, it didn't work. The company says the stock price has remained flat. Maybe this had something to do with the fact that the voice of the person delivering the message reportedly sounded like a female version of Darth Vader.

Yes, yes, and yes. Owners of Nintendo's revolutionary new Wii system will soon be welcoming a new game to the stable, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Sure, you'll be able to play it on the PS3 and the Xbox 360, too, but why would anyone bother? This is what the Wii is made for.

Next year, players will be able to wield their controllers like a Skywalker. And you'll do so as a bad guy. Apparently, you'll serve as Darth Vader's apprentice, charged with ridding the universe of Jedi. That might not sound too appealing for those of you who don't like the idea of working for a murderous villain, but watch the trailer here, then try to tell me you're not ready to work for the Empire.—Gregory Mone
