Bling bling, says Moto

The RAZR is back (yes, yes, it never went away) with a new look, a new (stupid) name and a big helping of bling. It's a pretty decent phone in its own right but by and large this will sell tons purely on its irresistible bling factor. Read the full Motorola KRZR review in today's paper.

In games, Call of Duty 3 (360) pulls out all the stops in making this the most intense WWII shooter to date but forgets to update the gameplay to go with it. Hugely entertaining but rests on its laurels too much.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories (PSP) goes back to the 80s theme for the latest version of the free-roaming crime simulator. Nothing too surprising here but worth every penny if you're a fan.

Guild Wars: Nightfall is a pretty decent Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game which has been overshadowed by World of Warcraft's success. On the other hand, it doesn't require a costly monthly subscription like WoW. Possibly a bit too complicated for its own good.

Ridge Racer 2 (PSP) is a breathtakingly cheeky full-price re-release of RR1, with a few tracks and cars tacked on. Seek out the cheaper, brilliant original if you don't have it already.
