FIFA 12 - The boldest FIFA game in years!

However, this is a question that many gamers who aren’t fanatical about FIFA tend to ask, and most years, that question is easy to answer. This year, not so much. EA claims that FIFA 12 is a revolutionary step for the series and football games, and there are a couple of big headlining features using which they aim to achieve this. To anyone worried about this being simply FIFA 11 with a new name – it’s not. FIFA 12 plays drastically differently...


Canon Legria HF R205 Review

Camcorders have more or less taken a backseat with the recent success of smartphones.

Here’s what we think about the Legria HF R205. 18X Zoom-...

Finally, we are starting to see Microsoft’s ‘big update’ trickle in and HTC is the first to usher in this change with the launch of their new handset, the Radar. This new phone is all set to replace the HTC Mozart and brings with it some much needed changes. HTC has set the MRP to Rs. 25,490, however they say the street price should be closer to Rs. 23,990.
