Plain ol’ holiday cards can just be so bland: stars, snowy evenings, cultural or religious imagery… eh. You know what I like in my holidays? Co-op games and zombies. All the better if I can get them all on one little piece of paper which I can then send to all my friends. Or at least my co-op buddies.
Ah, nothing says Christmas like undulating peppermint tongue. Valve is offering up sets of cards for $15.95 apiece, in addition to their normal stock of t-shirts and other swag. Left 4 Dead is available, as shown above, but do you really want to go with last year’s zombie game? It’s time to get up in the new hotness, children:
All that’s missing from these Left 4 Dead 2 cards is me getting my hind end kicked all around the Dark Carnival finale. Fortunately, I can see that on my Xbox any ol’ time.
If, however, you prefer a little Orange Box excitement over the zombie apocalypse, you can also check out the Team Fortress 2 offerings. Here’s one of the two available sets:
Definitely beats reindeer.

The new PCP-1200 photo printer from Casio is aimed at those who care enough to send the very best. Or at least the very best that you can create. It has a 7inch widescreen touch display and keyboard so you can print text on post card sized paper.
You can also print photos Straight from your digital camera, cell phone and memory cards. You also get over 60 stamps like hearts, stars etc so you can girl it up to your heart’s content. Great for greetings cards of all types. The PCP-1200 photo printer is currently available in Japan for around $500.

Ever since the movie opened on Friday it’s been Dark Knight mania. As we all know, the Joker is the real star of the movie. That’s probably why he has his own Poker set now. No doubt inspired by his real Poker set, which he uses every Friday night when it’s Poker night in Gotham for he and his cohorts.
You get 54 prop replica Joker cards, a second 54 card deck defaced by the Joker, Joker-themed 100 piece chip set and black aluminum carrying case. Just don’t go so far as to paint your face like the Joker or they may haul you off to Arkham Asylum. It will cost you $84 and is available for pre-order.

Card shufflers have been around for awhile, but they haven’t really gone high tech until now. Which is good news, because if your buddies have had a few too many drinks, you are bound to get a crap hand. And that just won’t do when you are down to your last chip and have bet your wedding ring on the outcome of this hand.
Shuffle Tech says that this state-of-the-art version will speed up the whole card shuffling process. It has two options, one with three riffles that takes 45 seconds and the other with seven that takes 90 seconds. I’m not sure that’s a whole faster, but again, if your buddies are half drunk, it may be. It also has a translucent lid in case you are fascinated by the goings on inside.
The sucky thing about this is that it costs $480. I would say, if you just bought one, it’s like losing your first hand before a single card is shuffled.

With what was likely an inspired bit of effort, some clever modder — we really wish we knew who to credit but sadly don’t — has converted a
MOTOROKR E6 into a working transformer. Unlike the Nokia branded Transfomer handsets we saw
last week, this actually transforms and apparently somehow still functions as a phone — though looking at it we’d guess just barely. While, we wouldn’t haul this around with us as a day to day phone, we’d def put it up in a place of honor here at the Engadget Mobile Mansion. Hit the read link for a pile more shots.
