Games and gaming gear
Whether you're buying for Dad or for the new graduate in your life, odds are they'll have one love in common: gaming. CNET editors have reviewed all the games and gear they'll want to be playing with this spring and have compiled them into an easy-to-use list of our top picks. Regardless of which console they own, there is something for everyone here.
Editors' top pick
The bottom line: It lacks the graphical prowess and rich media features of the Xbox 360 and the PS3, but the Nintendo Wii's combination of unique motion-sensitive controllers and emphasis on fun gameplay make the ultra-affordable console hard to resist.
The bottom line: While it's more of a luxury accessory than a must-have accessory, the Nyko Kama Wireless Nunchuk does a good job of eliminating that final cable from your Wii's controller.
The bottom line: While it costs a bit more than it should, the DualShock 3 adds the rumble support that should've been present in the PS3 from the beginning.
The bottom line: With only a couple of small downsides, the Nyko Charger Grip for PSP delivers exactly what it promises: a more ergonomic gaming experience on your slim PSP and up to 10 hours of extra battery life.
The bottom line: The Nyko Perfect Shot is an affordable alternative to the Wii Zapper--we just wish it was as comfortable.
