Reviews

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Microsoft Security Essentials

    Microsoft Security Essentials is recommended for those who want something to set and ignore, but users who want more robust configuration choices or don't want to contribute to the cloud should look elsewhere.

  • Halo 3: ODST

    An awesome campaign and addictive new Firefight mode make ODST a thrilling new entry in the Halo franchise.

  • Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000

    The Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 doesn't leave much room for complaint. It fits comfortably in your hand and works on almost any surface, thanks to Microsoft's BlueTrack sensor technology. It would make a useful addition to your mobile arsenal.

  • Microsoft Windows 7 (Home Premium)

    Windows 7 is more than what Vista should have been — it's where Microsoft needed to go. How much damage Vista did and whether Windows 7 is enough for people to finally abandon Windows XP are questions that nobody has the answers to right now.

  • Microsoft Windows 7 (Professional)

    Windows 7 looks like the operating system that we've all been waiting for. Despite its imperfections, it shows a lot of promise for the future while presenting a stable platform that can compete comfortably with OS X.

  • Microsoft Office 2010 Technical Preview

    The next Microsoft Office may not be hitting computer screens until 2010, but we got to test drive the invite-only Technical Preview. See what Redmond has in store for its powerhouse suite.

  • Microsoft Windows 7 (Ultimate)

    Windows 7 looks like the operating system that we've all been waiting for. Despite its imperfections, it shows a lot of promise for the future while presenting a stable platform that can compete comfortably with OS X.

  • Microsoft SideWinder X8

    Microsoft's SideWinder X8 is a marked improvement to the series, but there's more work to do yet, especially when it comes to the shape.

  • Halo Wars

    Halo Wars is a fun strategy outing for fans of the universe, but it feels simplistic and short alongside other games in the genre.

  • Microsoft Explorer Mouse

    Microsoft's new desktop mouse conquers surfaces no mouse has conquered before. It also happens to be very good.

  • Lips

    Lips' wireless mics and excellent song selection make for an evening's worth of entertainment, but it has little to offer solo players.

  • Gears of War 2

    Gears of War 2's new environments, weapons, and multiplayer features round out an all-around superior action package.

  • Microsoft SideWinder X5 Mouse

    Microsoft's pared-down SideWinder X5 Mouse is supposed to offer PC gamers a lower-cost version of its higher-end model. Instead, it comes across as flimsy and overly stripped down.

  • Microsoft SideWinder X6 Keyboard

    The X6 is an excellent gaming keyboard, providing innovation and useful features while keeping things simple.

  • Windows 7 pre-beta (build 6801)

    At first glance, Windows 7 appears to be an advanced iteration of Windows Vista, but more consumer-friendly, with many user interface enhancements.

  • Microsoft Explorer Mini Mouse

    We can't fault Microsoft's Bluetrack technology, which makes this a mouse capable of tracking over just about anything. Just don't stare at the pretty blue light for too long.

  • Microsoft Arc Mouse

    Microsoft's Arc is one of the best mouse concepts we've seen, combining the benefits of portability and a full-sized mouse into the one unit.

  • Microsoft Wireless Media Desktop 1000

    Microsoft's Wireless Media Desktop 1000 will provide you with a perfectly capable wireless mouse and keyboard for a more reasonable price than its competition. We just wish Microsoft would give more thought to the design and overall feel of its hardware.
