Reviews

  • Sony Ericsson W705

    Average call quality on an otherwise killer music mobile. The W705 ticks most of the right boxes, and is cute as a button, but is letdown in a few key areas.

  • MadWorld

    This comically savage action game overcomes its frustrations with liberal doses of blood and guts.

  • Killzone 2

    Killzone 2 boasts amazing visuals, an intense campaign and extraordinary online play that will keep you coming back for more.

  • God of War: Chains of Olympus

    Although it feels a bit like God of War: Lite, Chains of Olympus delivers a great, combat-heavy adventure with excellent production values.

  • Too Human

    Too Human is a game of false starts and unrealised potential that infiltrate almost every aspect of the game. This action/role-playing hybrid is too unbalanced and too frustrating to recommend.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50

    Plentiful features with all manner of adjustable options, entertaining gimmicks and rock-solid shooting make us like this camera a lot. If you could stick an SD card slot in there, it'd be one of the best superzooms we've seen. Sadly, it loses marks for the proprietary connections.

  • Burnout Paradise

    Burnout Paradise includes all the fast-driving, hard-wrecking action you'd expect from a Burnout game, but with a fantastic new open-world design that gives it its own stand-alone flavor.

  • Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (Japanese)

    The release date for GT5 has slipped more times than an Olympic speed skater, so to keep fans interested there's a Prologue version available. It's only in Japanese at the moment though.
