Hottest Gadgets

Sony NGP


Sony's thrown everything its got at this handheld beast, resulting in a potent superior device

 This is higher up the Hotness Index than arch-rival Nintendo’s 3DS because it bypasses gimmicks such as 3D and goes all out for forceful specs. The dual joypads finally allow proper control in games, while a touchscreen and gyroscope give game developers plenty of other options.
The quadcore processor allows for, at the very least, PS2-quality games, while the five-inch, 960x544 widescreen should serve as a crystal-clear window onto virtual worlds. Of course it’s also higher up the Hot 100 because it won’t be out till Christmas. Remember the unassailable law of the tech world: perceived hotness is in inverse proportion to the amount of time spent actually using stuff.

The engine is user-adaptable, but is rammed full of effects, sounds and scope for third party apps. It also tunes itself – just some of what Gibson claims are ’20 revolutionary features.’
