REVIEW: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (Xbox 360, PS3)
The Harry Potter wizarding saga is brought to a close this weekend with the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 in cinemas.

Enter then the Teufel Concept D 500 THX PC speakers; massive in both physical size and pricing and packing THX certification, does more dough equate to more sonic bang for your buck?

Is the use of gaming strategy guides the same as cheating?
