MaximumPC - From the World of Something Useful: I typically never use anything other than 3dMark to benchmark my PC's and their graphics cards. I guess I have never really even asked the question, "Is this all that there is? Is there nothing more?" MaximumPC answers that question with a quick round of 5 tools to use to see if your GPU is up to snuff.

Metacritic Game Reviews - Need for Speed Shift: Despite the naysayers, I remain a staunch supporter of the Need for Speed series. I love being a complete gear-head as much as the next guy (or gal), but sometimes I just want to drive without all of the setup and editing; but I still do not want an arcadey driving experience. The NFS franchise has struck this balance correctly for me more often than it has missed the mark. Check out the media's current reception of the latest NFS series installment.

Mobile Magazine - Return of the Razr: In terms of the digital age, the Motorola Razr line could be considered venerable. Until the iPhone came along, no other phone had made so large a mark on the world of cellular consumerism. If you consider the original Razr a direct decedent of the Startac series, then the Razr's roots go back even further. I used a Startac. And I adopted a Razr, as well. A tribute to the Razr's rightful place as the everyman's phone is the fact that I decided to give mine up the day I boarded a transport shuttle between terminals at Dulles and as soon as the door's closed, everyone on the shuttle whipped out a Razr. The product line is back, albeit re-born and edged out to make it competitive in today's marketplace. I have moved out of this customer zone as a consumer, but I reckon it will fit some people's needs just fine.
