Speaking of music

Sometimes you just want to share your music (and we don't mean in the slightly illegal Kazaa kind of way). Instead of carrying a separate portable speaker system with you, the Samsung K5 could be the answer. Behind the MP3 player's screen lies a hidden speaker that folds out to supply your sounds. Read the full Samsung K5 review in today's paper.

In games, Rainbow Six: Vegas, which lit up the 360 with its tense firefights, becomes the PS3's first shooter of real quality. Sure, it's "just" a port but for Sony owners starved of action, RS6: Vegas hits the spot.

Call of Juarez (X360) gives the Wild West its annual outing on games, with mixed results - the shooting sequences (complete with slow-mo) are fun but the stealth levels feel limp. Metal Slug Anthology (PS2) gathers all the bonkers MS arcade shooters under one roof - great value, and the impossibly hard gameplay is leavened by infinite continues. King of Fighters XI (PS2) revives the revered 3-on-3 beat-em-up for one more go - it remains exquisitely playable even if the graphics are a nostalgic throwback.
