Reviews

  • Cars Race-O-Rama

    Cars Race-O-Rama is a terribly generic racer aimed at the younger crowd. It's neither great nor awful, just absolutely middle-of-the-road gaming.

  • Assassin's Creed II

    Assassin's Creed II is what you'd want an action sequel to be: bigger, better and more beautiful.

  • Ninja Blade

    This derivative action game is a bunch of silly, stylish fun.

  • DJ Hero

    DJ Hero spells a new frontier in rhythm gaming of electrifying fun, but the cover charge is steep.

  • Forza Motorsport 3

    The next instalment, coming in October, offers pumped up visuals, error prone AI drivers and a rewind feature to undo nasty little incidents, like dates with the Armco.

  • Philips GoGear Mix (4GB)

    The GoGear Mix is exactly what people are looking for in an MP3 player. It's easy to load with music, simple to operate and a pleasure to listen to.

  • Philips GoGear Aria (8GB)

    The GoGear Aria may be cheaper than a comparable iPod Nano, but it's leagues behind in terms of quality.

  • Logitech Wireless Desktop MK700

    Although it's not our favourite keyboard and mouse combination, the Logitech Wireless Desktop MK700 set earns our recommendation for its comfortable "Incurve" key design, quick scrolling mouse and impressive battery life.
