Small but packs a punch

In today's paper, read Ireland's first full review of Apple's tasty iPod Nano, causing ripples as much for its desirability as the growing backlash about how easy it is to break/scratch the screen. The verdict: it's actually a clever improvement on the already shit-hot iPod Mini (the best-selling 'Pod).

Just watch out for those scratches from day one.

In games, Burnout: Revenge (PS2/Xbox), tunes up the road racing/crash sim formula to incredible effect - massively addictive. Super Monkey Ball Deluxe (PS2/Xbox) collects the two GameCube Marble Madness-style simian classics into one huge-value and highly entertaining package. NFL Street 2 Unleashed (PSP) is another one from the endless EA stable of cross-pollinating franchises, but manages to be playable and enjoyable if you like the gridiron thing. Finally, Untold Legends is the PSP's only RPG and leaves plenty of ground to be bettered. In truth, it gets old quickly unless you're a huge D'n'D fan.
