Reviews

  • Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D

    Lovers of all things kitsch, quirky and new gather round, for Fujifilm has a brand new camera that takes its cues from the hottest 3D technology back in the 1950s.

  • Samsung PS42A450P1

    The Samsung PS42A450P1 is a 42-inch plasma which features 100Hz motion compensation and is capable of displaying 3D games and videos.

  • Zalman ZM-M220W

    The Zalman ZM-M220W is a very good gaming monitor, with decent contrast and colours, but the 3D capabilities aren't as special as we'd hoped.

  • Red Steel Review

    Clunky sword-fighting sequences slapped into the middle of all the shooting; inane story chock-full of painful dialogue and voice acting; numerous noticeable bugs and glitches.

  • Prey

    Prey is fun while it lasts, but its unique gameplay aspects don't do enough to compensate for what's at heart a fairly straightforward first person shooter.

  • Half Life 2: Episode 1

    Episode One is even better than Half-Life 2. The only problem is that it's over before you know it.

  • Commandos Strike Force

    Though based on a great series of innovative tactical action/puzzle games, Commandos Strike Force comes off as just another middling World War II shooter, despite some good ideas.

  • Call of Duty 2

    On the Xbox 360, this first-rate WWII first-person shooter is every bit as intense and hard-hitting as the PC version of the game.
