      LAS VEGAS

      The junked signs that once attracted throngs to old Las Vegas have for years gathered dust in a neon boneyard just a few miles from the sleek megacasinos on the Strip.

      The Neon Museum, founded in 1996 a few miles north of the Strip, has 150 signs. Guided nighttime tours are available seven days a week starting at 7:30 p.m.

    3. Sony wins E3 by letting Microsoft self-destruct

      06/13/13 Pop Culture

      This year's Electronic Entertainment Expo turned out well for Sony's PlayStation 4 public relations flacks. After all, how difficult can it be to sell your middling show horse when your competition trots out a swaybacked walker riddled with strangles?

      Sony Computer Entertainment CEO Andrew House only had to announce his new console’s price Monday, and already people were clapping.

    5. Google is real star of new movie 'The Internship'

      06/04/13 Pop Culture Associated Press

      SAN FRANCISCO — This scene isn't in the movie, but it might have been fitting if The Internship had ended with stars Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson wearing ruby red shoes while clicking their heels and dreamily whispering, "There's no place like Google; there's no place like Google."

      Owen Wilson, left, and Vince Vaughn play two 40-something interns at Google in The Internship, which opens Friday.

    7. Xbox One and PS4 DRM debate is costlier than it appears

      05/30/13 Pop Culture By Joshua Gillin, tbt* columnist

      To hear tell of it, you'd think the reveals of the Xbox One last week and the Playstation 4 three months prior were utter disasters.

      Are the days of used-game outlets like GameStop numbered? Time (and announcements at E3) will tell.

    8. Keyshawn Johnson calls cops on Bieber in L.A.

      05/28/13 Pop Culture Times staff

      As Tampa Bay Bucs fans are aware, Keyshawn Johnson is no stranger to the occasional feud with a towheaded blond icon. But his spats with Jon Gruden are nothing compared to his new war on Justin Bieber.

    9. A couple more things about Xbox One ...

      05/21/13 Pop Culture By Joshua Gillin, tbt* columnist

      Microsoft on Tuesday used more Redmond-style math, unveiling the Xbox 360's successor, Xbox One. As in, the one machine you need for your home entertainment system. But is it the one we want?

      This is ostensibly the package available later this year, with a controller and a Kinect in every box. No price has been announced.
