Reviews

No More Heroes

This is the mature Wii action title you've been waiting for, and there's nothing else quite like it.
Sony PSP-3000

With its impressive game library, lower price and expanded feature set, it's certainly a much better deal than the original PSP — and it's even better than the PSP 2000. While its media and online functions won't necessarily replace a dedicated AV device or laptop, it will be good for most portable gaming and multimedia needs.
Nissan GT-R (R35)

The R35 Nissan GT-R is a technical tour de force, with evidence of brilliance throughout. Hopefully not too many of its tech goodies are chucked overboard by the time it finally goes on sale in Australia in 2009.
ASUS U1F

The ASUS U1 is one of the best ultraportable laptops available today, and more than powerful enough for Web browsing and office tasks -- just don't expect it to run 3D games
Hotel Dusk: Room 215

Hotel Dusk weaves an absorbing noir-style mystery with traditional adventure game elements and stylish presentation and does it all with a deft touch.
Cricket 07

EA's Cricket 07 plays a generally good game of cricket but is hamstrung by some finicky bowling controls. Still, its wide array of game modes makes it a compelling proposition for cricket tragics.
Apple iMac Core 2 Duo (17-inch, 1.83GHz)

The 17-inch iMac is missing a few features you might like — SuperDrive and a remote control, to name two — but it still makes a stellar home PC, thanks to its great design, new Core 2 Duo processor, and superior software bundle. Plus, its price makes it a borderline budget PC.
Apple iMac Core 2 Duo (24-inch, 2.16GHz)

Other vendors might offer more flexible configurations and better deals on components, and the specter of HD video looms darkly, but the 24-inch iMac's sprawling display and convincingly capable features should set most people's minds at ease.
