1. Top Gear
   Top Gear is a BAFTA,[1] Multi-NTA and Emmy Award-winning BBC television series about motor vehicles, mainly cars. It began in 1977 as a conventional motoring magazine show. Over time, and especially since a relaunch in 2002, it has developed a quirky, humorous style. The programme is estimated to have 350 million viewers worldwide[2] and 8 million viewers each week in the UK on BBC Two.[3] The show is presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, James May and The Stig, an anonymous test driver. It is one of the most pirated television shows in the world.[4][5]
2. Metal Gear -- Metal Gear Solid
   A comic book adaptation of the original Metal Gear Solid was published by IDW Publishing in 2004. It was written by Kris Oprisko and illustrated by Ashley Wood. The series is comprised of 12 issues and has been collected in two trade paperbacks. A comic book adaptation of Sons of Liberty has ... been published (by IDW), with the writing this time handled by Alex Garner. The artist remains the same. It has been completed as of June 2007.
3. Metal Gear Solid -- Metal Gear Solid 4
   Metal Gear Solid 4 producer Ryan Payton confirmed that MSG4 will have lots of voice overs. So much so that the US/Euro version will only have the English voice overs while the Japanese version will only have the Japanese voice overs. This is incredible when the Blu-ray can hold much more data than a DVD.
4. Money Magazine -- Young Money Magazine
   Young Money Magazine is the only money/lifestyle magazine geared to 18-24 year olds. It is now reaching college students who are naturally involved in various money related matters such as credit cards, student loans, saving and investing, car buying and career search. Young Money skillfully delivers a unique blend of money, business and lifestyle that engages, inspires and informs. With a majority of articles written by sharp college journalists who "know the language" and have the attitude of today's youth, Young Money draws readers inside with a fast paced tour of stories, facts, opinions, and colorful, lively photos and illustrations.
5. Top Gear -- Cars
   For the first seven series of Top Gear's current format, the car driven was a Suzuki Liana. At the beginning of the eighth series, the Liana was replaced by a Chevrolet Lacetti. Consequently, as the Lacetti is more powerful, the leader board was wiped clean. The format for setting a lap time was ... changed: each celebrity is allowed five practice laps, then a final timed lap. No allowance is made for any errors on this final timed lap.
6. Metal Gear -- Games
   Despite graphical improvements, Metal Gear Solid's gameplay remains similar to its MSX2 predecessor Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. The player must navigate the protagonist Solid Snake through the game's areas without being detected[13] — detection sets off an alarm, which draws armed enemies to his location. To return to a lower alert setting, the player must hide, and remain undetected by the enemy until a timer reaches zero.[14]
7. Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance
   The game's audio is even better, thanks to some very good voice acting and especially due to Metal Gear Solid 2's terrific, catchy musical score composed by Harry Gregson-Williams, who provided similar music for big-budget action movies such as The Rock. If the game's cutscenes don't make you feel like you're taking part in an epic thriller, then the music most certainly will. It interactively changes depending on the situation and will make the game's suspenseful bits all the more so and the game's intense bits all the more so. The rest of the game's audio is ... very well done, from all the different-sounding firearms to smaller touches like the sound of seagulls off the coast of the game's main setting of a mysterious deep-sea production plant. Those with Dolby Digital setups should especially enjoy listening to Substance.
8. Maxim Magazine -- Fashion
   Maxim Magazine is edited for young, intelligent professional men. Maxim Magazine concentrates on sports, sex, work, health, money and fashion. Provocative pictorials on women are prevalent in every issue, along with articles on sex, sports, fashion, career, gadgets, jokes, health and fitness. Daring and brutally honest, Maxim provides valuable social ammunition for today's modern, multifaceted man. Includes A Free Gift!
9. Money Magazine -- Savings
   Each year, Money Magazine evaluates 1,115 colleges and universities to identify the schools that deliver the highest-quality education for the tuition and fees they charge. The rankings are based on 16 educational factors, including: percentage of faculty with the highest degree in their discipline; student/faculty ratios; entrance exam scores and high school standing of entering freshmen; student and educational resources; graduation rates; and business success after graduation.
10. Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty -- Substance
    There is a huge arsenal of new weapons at your disposal, not available in Metal Gear Solid. The SOCOM handgun, Nikita missile launcher, and most of the weapons seen in Metal Gear Solid make their return. Substance adds in weapons such as the USP handgun, a PSG1-T sniper rifle, the AKSu-74 assault rifle, and many more. Many of the items found in Metal Gear Solid return as well, such as the well-known cardboard box (which you can hide underneath), the magazine (which distracts guards with pictures of women), and the life-giving rations. Substance ... includes a new way of approaching your objective, by adding in the M9 tranquilizer pistol, and a tranquilizer version of the PSG1 sniper rifle. These allow you to take out enemies by putting them to sleep rather than killing or knocking them out.
