Advantages: Fantastic zoom, great value for money Disadvantages: A little heavy when walking
OVERVIEW
As a keen bird watcher, in the spring I decided to replace my rather tatty old (but dearly loved) glasses.
The local photography shop introduced me to the Bresser range, and despite my initial concerns over size and weight was 'sold with the Hunter 10x50.
These are a very reasonably priced pair, costing around £ 40. They have fantastic light transmission, and their fully coated optics produce an ultra clear high-contrast image replication, this is particularly suitable I find when using the higher magnification.

Advantages: 32bit add-on for a 16bit device Disadvantages: 6 months of life, insane depreciation during it's decline
with nothing else happening. I really enjoyed Spiderman, so when that game died due to 32x plug-age, I despaired. There were rumours going around that it would mess up my 16bit games, but I did not listen. I didn?t listen! Heed the warnings my comrades, heed them well and keep your Mega Drive games away from this game-memory-wiping piece of crap. Even if the chances are 1 in 10,000, are you willing to risk your beloved Mega Drive games with those odds? I wouldn?t.
I like to keep my games in a shoebox for all my consoles, even my old Mega Drive the games are in a shoe box. The thing is, with my Mega Drive games I can quickly glimpse at the top of the games and immediately know what game it is, like seeing the name of the book on the book?s spine. However with the 32x, Sega decided to leave the end labels off the 32x games, so if I want to find ...

Before Keanu Reeves set the trend for dodging bullets in slow motion, Sly Stallone was chiselling his iron jaw, rather than putting his mind to a script in 1986's Cobra. Crime was a disease; he was the cure. It was that simple.
An army of axe wielding serial killers led by the "Nightslasher" are terrorizing L.A. with absolutely no motive. But spare the psychological babble for the films that don't make it seem so cool to wear a trench coat, a pair of aviators, and chew on a match stick in the presence of danger. Stallone's only job as "The Cobra" was to protect a fashion model- who witnessed some of the unmotivated murders- and max out as many psychopaths as possible. It was a great life being an action star.
Whether Stallone meant it or not, Cobra is full of hilarity. Though, surely he must have seen the funny side to a bad guy ...
