One of the very best games ever made!

This game is a very deep and engaging third person, turn-based, tactical strategy game. It manages to be deep and engaging while being fun at the same time. It can be quite challenging, but also very rewarding. The X-COM series is one of my favorite game series ever made!

Works perfectly with Apple products!

This Lightning power cord is a quality product that is half the cost of a Apple brand adapter and works just as well! The color options of this line are a very nice touch as well.

This Magellan MiVue 638 MV0638SGXXX dash cam records 1080p Full HD footage with audio, so you can easily capture incidents that occur while you're driving. A sensor triggers the camera to automatically record and save footage upon impact.

I really like this dash cam. I will elaborate on the reasons why, but I will first caution new users about the strange and mandatory method of plugging the power cord in. The power cord is a propriety USB cable. That sounds standard but it is not that simple. The first step is sliding the slotted USB plug into the suction cup base. The next step is to then snap the suction cup base into the camera. Everything MUST be done in that order or you wont be able to connect the cord to the camera. While this provides for a very secure connection, this procedure is NOT referenced anywhere in the manual. Thankfully the other end is standard 12V car plug in! This camera comes with a 8 GB micro SD card and can accept up to a 128 GB card. A nice feature is that there are 2 card slots which allows for copying files from the primary card to the secondary card. The touch screen is super easy to use and makes controlling the camera very intuitive. If you can use a smart phone, you can figure this camera out. The 150 degree field of view provides a very full sight picture. There is some fish lens, but that is unavoidable with a wide angle lens, and is a worthwhile trade off to get nearly the entire front end of the car covered. I also like the parking feature which works off of the internal battery, which according to the manual can operate for up to one hour of recording. Other cameras offer this, but the unit must be wired to the battery. The video quality is very clear and can be set to 720P or 1080P HDR. I am very satisfied with this camera and the peace of mind it provides!

This is a very nice controller. It improves on the excellent dual shock 3. For those that don't know, this is a wireless (Bluetooth) controller with a built in rechargeable battery. The range and responsiveness is top notch. Battery life is also superb.

Charge and display your DUALSHOCK 4 wireless controller with the officially licensed Charging Stand. Charging is a snap - Simply connect the charging adapter to the micro USB port on the DUALSHOCK 4, set the controller on the stand and click down to see the LED base light up to indicate charging level. When fully charged, click to release contact and simply leave the controller on the stand. Be certain your controller is always ready to game as it stylishly charges on display alongside of your PS4 console.

This charger works well. It also doubles as a nice looking controller stand. One negative aspect is that you are required to use an adapter that plugs in to the micro USB slot of the controller. The adapter is very small and slim though.

PS3 is the perfect system for someone on a budget!
on July 15, 2014
Posted by: Kotor
from Orlando, FL
I investigated this unit and the PS4, and went with this PS3 bundle because of the excellent value it provided. The PS4 is not backwards compatibile with PS3 games, and right now the PS4 games cost more $ than I am willing to pay.
With this system you are getting a very cabable and versatile blu-ray player, streaming player (Netflix, Vudu, YouTube), and of course video game player! It handles each of these areas fabulously. I am highly impressed by the capabilities of this powerful console!!
Also, the PS3 market for pre-owned games is excellent now! Many excellent titles are available for VERY reasonable prices. The included game, Last of Us, is excellent and the 500 GB drive is great because is allows for massive amounts of downloaded content and saves.
What's great about it: VERSATILITY!

Overall
4 out of 5
4 out of 5Great Picture, poor remote Arc audio does not work
By wstcsttechy
Replaced an old SXRD Sony 60" from 8 years ago. Tried the 65" 930 model and that picture was good however not like the 940D. Full array backlighting makes a big difference. First one upon delivery had a line all along the right side of the screen and a horizontal line about 6 inches up from the bottom of the screen. Magnolia came out a few days later with a replacement and this one is much better. Remote control is not user friendly, poor design, Arc audio does not work with my 2 year old Yamaha receiver so must use separate fibre optic cable to allow audio to services. Sony 3D nothing like the Samsung. 4 free movies promotion was difficult to set up and must supply credit card info to get promo and only 8 titles to choose from. I wish they would have included the 3D glasses instead of free movies with a $6500 TV. Overall happy with the purchase and would recommend as a great home theater TV with lots of smart features.

Cable Box breaks ARC
April 24, 2017
Are you using a cable box? Cable and satellite boxes are notorious for breaking ARC. When I disconnected the cable box HDMI cable from the chain, ARC started working. I am going to get a HDMI "CEC less adapter" and connect it to the cable box which should fix the problem.

What is the decibel level of this vacuum? Is it noisy or quiet?
It is about as loud as any powerful vacuum. To my ear no more or no less. I do not know the exact decibel level. But my pets run and hide from it.

What is the charging setup - does it need to be charged on a wall-mounted dock or can you just plug it in anywhere with an AC adapter while it's folded over? Can the battery be removed easily and swapped, assuming they start selling batteries separately?
The battery can be charged while attached to the vacuum, either when it is folded over or upright. The battery can be removed and charged while removed. The battery is very easy to remove and attach.

I want to use wireless assuming it has an internal battery you can remove, bring inside and charge then insert it back in unit? How does it work wirelessly?
The camera housing snaps out of the wall mount by pressing a button. You bring the entire unit in for charging. It is a very simple method.
