Samsung M575 - black (Virgin Mobile) Posted: 11 Aug 2012 12:02 AM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The Samsung M575 feature phone has a spacious QWERTY keyboard and a budget prepaid price. Bad: A thick, heavy form factor, poor speakerphone, and low-end features don't make the M575 an attractive option. Bottom Line: With basic features and a repeat of a thick design, the Samsung M575 feels clunky and outdated. [Read more] |
Cellhelmet iPhone 4S Case (Blue/Green) Posted: 10 Aug 2012 11:55 PM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: The Cellhelmet iPhone case comes with accidental-damage coverage, which entitles customers to unlimited handset repairs within the first 12 months and one iPhone replacement. Bad: The Cellhelmet's coverage plan doesn't account for water damage, the case itself isn't attractive, and its edges are scratchy. Bottom Line: Because of its accidental-damage coverage plan, the Cellhelmet iPhone case has a steep price. But if you prefer peace of mind from damage over price and aesthetics, it's worth considering. [Read more] |
Posted: 10 Aug 2012 09:50 PM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Pitfall is a fast-paced perpetual runner with tons of gameplay variation, power-ups, and more that keep you playing "just one more time." Bad: Minor graphics glitches in various spots. An in-app purchase system wants you to spend your money. Bottom Line: The remake of the old classic is really nothing like the original, but if you like escape-type survival games, Pitfall has tons of variation on the game mechanic you're used to.

Posted: 10 Aug 2012 08:54 AM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Bewitching visual artistry Some enjoyably tense moments Bad: Rudimentary environmental puzzles Uneven voice acting Bottom Line: Deadlight draws you in with its rich, pervasive atmosphere, but doesn't give you much to do once you're there.

Posted: 10 Aug 2012 08:54 AM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Lots of content Killing difficult foes is exciting Bad: Shallow combat Tedious upgrade system Little motivation to keep playing Bottom Line: The pieces are in place for a fine adventure, but Rainbow Moon's shallow mechanics have limited appeal.

Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time (PSP) Posted: 10 Aug 2012 08:54 AM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Intricate story set in a complex world Good writing that creates vivid characters Bad: Straightforward, unremarkable combat Sometimes unclear where you need to go Character interactions feel mechanical Bottom Line: Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time weaves a complex and captivating tale, but the combat doesn't pull its weight.

The Political Machine 2012 (PC) Posted: 10 Aug 2012 08:54 AM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Addictive, boardgame-styled mechanics Roster of new political players allows for some interesting races Low price Bad: Mostly the same game as the 2008 entry Design issues remain unaddressed Gameplay features have been dropped A few bugs Bottom Line: The Political Machine 2012 updates the Beltway players and the hot-button issues, but keeps the same gameplay as its 2008 predecessor.

Posted: 10 Aug 2012 08:54 AM PDT Editor's Rating: User Rating: Good: Lots of crazy variety with new traps and gizmos Multiplayer co-op really makes the experience Two playable characters offer different strategies Bad: Game audio and one-liners are recycled and repetitive Bottom Line: Multiplayer co-op and a number of other great additions make diving into Orcs Must Die! 2 a delight.
