COMPUTER OF THE YEARMACBOOK AIRThere is no question in mind as to

why the Macbook Air shouldn’t be the computer of the year. With its slim design, amazing features and now- an

option of a bigger screen; the Macbook Air serves as an ultra-portable notebook

everyone should have! It’s thin, but not thin in features. It’s light, but not light

in performance. Featuring the latest generation of Intel processors, the core i5

and i7 and a faster memory, experience video playback and FaceTime calls that

are smoother, more responsive, and more true to life. Explore reality through the Air!

GADGET OF THE YEARiPHONE 4S

iPhone 4S has been the talk of the year before and after its arrival. With a faster processor and a classy design, it

not only became the most advanced mobile operating system in the world,

but also introduced us to Siri, your best companion who would never let you

down. Ever had a personal assistant who understands what you say and knows

what you mean? Well, Siri is here at your service. Just voice what you want, and

Siri will figure out the right apps to use to find the right answer. Then, just like

a personal assistant, it answers you. Siri makes phone calls, sends messages, schedules meetings, sets reminders

and much more. Visit one of our stores to meet your own Siri and learn about the many additional features this little

device can do. Just when we thought no iPhone 5 was bad news, they came up

with this little baby!

HEADPHONE OF THE YEAR

MONSTER

What can we say that has not already been said about Dr Dre.

An Award winning producer who found us Eminem and NWA

has now found us the best hip hop headphones on the market.

More of these are seen on the street now then the famous

white Apple ones. Our choice of Beats has to be the Monster

Beats Pro, given that they work just as well in the studio as they

do outside it. SR 1,875

CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFARE 3GAME OF THE YEAR

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is the next chapter in the best-selling Call of Duty first-person shooter action series. It has beaten Battlefield 3 in the 2011 sales charts, according to official figures. It is the third year in a row that a Call of Duty title has taken the accolade, after Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops succeeded in 2009 and 2010 respectively. The achievement is especially impressive considering the fact that MW3 sold more than any other game title in the calendar year but was not released until the second week of November.

“CoD has proven itself to be the most popular gaming franchise in the world over the last few years and MW3 sets out to retain that title by delivering a globe-trotting war of epic proportions.” game.co.uk

FIFA Soccer 12 truly stepped up to the plate this year with incredible graphics, new lan-guages and easier buttons. It’s always a toss up between Fifa and Pro Evolution, but 2012 belongs to EA Sports.

Enjoy the stunning graphics, and the varieties of cars, tracks and challenges through the new innovation of the racing genre. By the game we put the most hours in. Truly a great game. Followed closely by Drift 3.

Control Ezio Auditore, a master assassin, walking in the footsteps of the legendary mentor Altair, on a journey of dis-covery and revelation. Much less wandering around and more action this time around. We are still playing this.

Much debate here as to why this made the list vs Battlefield 3. To be honest, had Battle-field come out at a different time of year rather then with CoD MW3 it might have been a different story. But boy did we enjoy this game.

MICROSOFTXBOX KINECTGAMING GADGET OF THE YEAR

It is a no brain-teaser that Kinect have made it this far. We wouldn’t be suprised if more great updates come out this year. Microsoft Xbox proudly introduces us to the new era of gaming by combining games and entertainment to life with no controller required. Kinect confidently states that gaming has now reached another level. It’s easy to use, instantly fun and gets everyone off the couch moving, laughing, and cheering! You are your own controller as you jump, dodge, and kick your way through exciting adventures set in a variety of locations. Bring the screen to your reality!

“Mircrosoft’s voice-activates, motion-sensing controller trumps Sony’s

Move with its futuristic tech, and the list of games is growing.” - Stuff Magazine
