The 2012 BMW 3-Series not only features an all-new design, but the "higher-power, higher-content 335i will start at $43,275, a couple of Benjamins less than the 2011 model." Video review after the break. Click here for more pictures. Here's the bottom line:

Couple these looks with a more dynamically accomplished chassis, and this might just be the best driving 3 Series ever... and the best car in the segment. Again.

Produced on a $5-million budget, Paranormal Activity 3 is sure to bring plenty of scares to theater goers nationwide this weekend, but will it be enough to beat the records set by its predecessors? Continue reading for the video review. Here's the bottom line:

This segment was filled with quality scares, which come out of the decision to reveal the source of the paranormal power. But this movie, produced for only $5 million, will scare up too much business to not see a fourth edition come October 2012.

By now, gadget fans know that the hardware updated iPhone 4S packs a dual-core A5 processor, 8MP camera, and most importantly, Siri, but is that enough to warrant a purchase? Well, if you're already an iPhone 4 owner, not so much, but for everyone else, a clear yes. Click here for more pictures. Continue reading for the video review. Here's the bottom line:

I suppose you could wait and see if the Nokia Windows Phone is going to be amazing, or if the gargantuan Galaxy Nexus is the Android phone that finally gets creature comforts correct. But I don't think they'll be better than the iPhone 4S, not really, though they may come very, very close, closer than anything's come before, like an asymptote.

Unlike its predecessor, the 2012 Toyota Camry "is the first Camry to be offered in the U.S. without a manual transmission, as demand for the manual was low and dealers preferred not to stock them; the U.S. Camry is standard with a 6-speed Automatic transmission, with all SE models having sports paddle shifters for manual shifts." Video review after the break. Click here for more pictures. Here's the bottom line:

In the end, the seventh generation sedan remains all Camry, through and through. There are absolutely no surprises here, and that simple fact will likely be enough to keep the model ahead of invading hordes, especially as Toyota fully expects half of 2012 Camry buyers to be former owners of the model.

Available in standard ($59.99) and limited edition ($79.99) varieties, Forza Motorsport 4 features over 80 manufacturers, 22 tracks, and even a revamped physics engine. Product page. Click here for more pictures. Continue reading for the video review. Here's the bottom line:

It lacks much of the technicality of Gran Turismo, but makes up for the deficit with excellent and engaging gameplay, an interesting and varied selection of vehicles and a wealth of detailed tracks. Is it enough to make me sell my Playstation 3 and finally become an xBox 360 convert? No, but I'll have no problem admitting that the Forza franchise has grown into an amazing effort from here on out.
