Sony PlayStation 3 Slim review

The PlayStation 3 Slim is the best version yet of Sony's gaming console. Its gaming and media-playback capability is little changed, and Sony's cut some features, like Linux support, but it's smaller, quieter and, crucially, cheaper. If you've been holding off on buying a PS3, this is the version to go for Read more

Nyko Wand Action Pak for Nintendo Wii review

Fans of shooting games on the Wii should definitely investigate the Nyko Wand Action Pak pistol accessory. It's more comfortable to use for extended periods of time than competing gun accessories, it's surprisingly customisable, and it's not exactly expensive either Read more

Elonex eBook review

Dispensing with the gimmickry of pretending it's also an MP3 player, the Elonex eBook boasts a sharp, crisp e-ink display and stylish, lightweight design. But, with the Amazon Kindle expected to alight on these shores before too long, is the eBook a worthwhile investment? Read more

Nintendo Wii MotionPlus review

The Wii MotionPlus adaptor promises to provide finer control with the Wii remote, and we found it delivers well with some games. Ultimately, it's up to developers to make the most of the MotionPlus, but this accessory has great potential. We'd like to see a Wii remote with it built in, though Read more

Interead Cool-er review

The Cool-er ebook reader from UK start-up Interead isn't the speediest device of its type that we've ever seen, but it does offer a great e-ink display that's on a par with the printed page for readability. Transferring books, pictures and MP3 files onto it is also easy, and it supports a wide range of formats Read more

Sony PSP Go preview hands-on

The PSP Go doesn't offer any game-changing upgrades, such as a touchscreen or second analogue stick, but it will probably prove a worthwhile investment for owners of the PSP 1000 and 2000, mainly because it's significantly smaller and lighter. The inclusion of Bluetooth capability is also a pleasing touch Read more

Nvidia GeForce 3D Vision Kit review

Aiming to give your games the appearance of running in full 3D, the effect produced by the GeForce 3D Vision Kit is certainly impressive, even if it doesn't work equally well for all compatible games. We didn't find it suitable for protracted use, but it should suit casual gamers well Read more

Logitech Driving Force Wireless review

The key selling point of the Driving Force Wireless steering-wheel controller for the PlayStation 2 and 3 is its convenience factor. It's straightforward to set up and put away, and, besides a power cord, there are no wires involved. Hard-core virtual racers might, however, prefer the performance of other Logitech wheels Read more

Nintendo DSi review

The DSi offers bigger screens and better audio quality than its predecessor, the DS Lite, as well an improved menu system, twin cameras and audio-playback capability. Battery life has fallen and more could have been made of some of its features, but the DSi is a great games console for those who don't already own a Lite Read more

Endless Ideas BeBook review

Relatively compact and lightweight, the BeBook has an excellent screen that's almost as easy on the eye as a real book. A plasticky design and sluggish menu system don't do the device any favours, but compensation comes in the form of exceptional battery life, and good font and file-format support Read more
