Stealing cars has never been what you'd call realistic in GTA. I mean, yeah, it has you pulling people out of moving vehicles and all that jazz, but when have you ever seen a smashed window? Well, you have now. Read More >>
One of the best things about Rockstar's previous GTA outings has always been the great characters you get to romp around the city as. You don't always love them, but they always add meat to the carnage you unfold on all the unsuspecting street-dwellers. Here's the three you'll be playing in GTA V. Meet Michael, Franklin and Trevor.

"Carrying on with this, Trevor looking a tiny bit like Niko Bellic and Micheal looking a tad like Tommy Vercetti

Nokia's just unveiled the Lumia 925, and while you might have thought it's just a UK version of the Lumia 928 that our US cousins are getting, it's so much more. Gone is the all-plastic traditional Lumia, subsumed by a much more refined feeling metal-polycarbonate mix. This thing looks and feels great. Read More >>

That ammonia leak on the ISS just had to be fixed, and while NASA's got robot slaves in space to do some of its bidding, there are a few things real men still have to do. Fixing stuff like leaks is one of them. Two astronauts had to do an impromptu EVA, fit a new pump, and dive back in. This is what it looked like. Read More >>
Sketching out some insane-looking beast is all very well, but actually making it, now that's a real challenge. Here's that awesome 503HP VW GTI concept in the flesh, wheels and all. I want one of these beauties parked outside my house. Read More >>
I play GTA for the fact that you can leave the story and just go on a rampage around the city, making your own fun and seeing just how far you can jump your car, bike, boat or whatever. This is what it'll look like in GTA V. Read More >>

Rockstar's dumped an absolute motherload of GTA V screenshots onto the internet for your viewing pleasure. From cars, choppers, quad-bikes and motorbikes, to jet fighters, skydiving, mini-guns and scuba, this thing is going to be epic. There's even some sort of Mission Impossible moment, clinging to the glass of a high-rise office block. Ethan Hunt eat your heart out. Read More >>
The remedy for your flat soft drink woes has been lurking in the backs of kitchen cupboards for around 40 years now. The latest model from SodaStream, the Revolution Drinksmaker, does the same job of creating homemade soda at a low cost, but even easier this time 'round, given it's the first fully-automatic version. While we discovered that it is pretty amazing at vaporizing vodka and other party tricks, is this product really worth shelling out £150? Read More >>

Car enthusiasts tend to talk about the McLaren Technology Centre in hushed tones such is the reverence for the place. Since it opened in 2003 it has taken on an almost mythical quality and it is true, as you approach the glistening, curving edifice walled with glass from the other side of the artificial lake, it does all start to feel a little otherworldly.

OK, so Microsoft isn't quite Google when it comes to crazy offices, but Skype's new London HQ still looks pretty rad, in an I-would-actually-like-to-live-there kinda way, rather than a place that simply makes you ask, what the hell have they been smoking? Read More >>

Flashdrives are a dime a dozen these days, hell, you can even get them in cereal boxes. But what if you needed to store something really, really big, and probably confidential on an easy-to-lose stick? Kingston's got you covered with its ludicrously expensive 512GB HyperX Predator USB 3.0 flashdrive. Just imagine how many nuclear codes, confidential files, and how much, errr, porn you could lose on this thing. WikiLeaks eat your heart out. Read More >>
No, that's not a typo, Ferrari's new V12, sub-three-second hypercar is called LaFerrari. It's a hybrid, made entirely out of carbon fibre, and packs 949bhp to annihilate people at the lights. Boy does it sound good, it's just a shame you'll never be able to refer to it by its name without laughing, or crying, into your beer. Read More >>

Yes folks, Lamborghini is finally back. The Germans might own it, and might have tempered its bat-shit-mental pin-up stylings, and way-over-the-top specs for a bit, but the Lamborghini of old is now back with a vengence. This is the insane new Veneno, Lambo's new £3 million hypercar that deserves to be your desktop background. Read More >>
Stoves have come a long way since the humble primus: turbo flames, jet boilers and ultra-light portables are just some of the options around. But now there’s the BioLite, a stove that burns twigs and charges your phone all at once. I know, it should erect your tent for you too. Read More >>
