Handy DJ

Thanks to the iPod, most people's music now sits on their PC instead of on piles of CDs stacked beside the stereo. But when you want to play your tunes away from your computer on a proper hi-fi, what do you do?

(Yes, you could play the original CDs you bought and then ripped. Or you could connect your iPod to your hi-fi.)

But a better solution is to remotely access your music with something like Logitech's Wireless DJ, which sends the audio from your PC to your hi-fi - and it packs a nifty remote control too. Shame it's Windows only and subject to a little bit of wireless interference.

Read the full Logitech Wireless DJ review in today's paper.

In games, Pro Evolution Soccer 6 (PS2, 360) remains the football champion, as fluid and believable as ever. It's just the trimmings that are more shabby than before, particularly on 360, ironically.

Scarface: The World is Yours (PS2) takes a risky stab at rewriting the ending of the famous Pacino movie but pulls it off with some good writing and a strong GTA-style structure.

Mercury Meltdown (PSP) rolls out another helping of Marble Madness-style action, and it's even better than the last, introducing brain-scrambling colour puzzles while making the frustrating bits less, er, frustrating.
