You take the lead as your team approaches a clean new area, free of color and chaos. With a smirk, you take it all in — you'll soon change that. Two teammates begin spraying down walls, floors, ceilings and every other imaginable surface with ink, claiming this territory as your own with a vivid wash of your colors. You and another fighter scan the area for enemies. The opposition never sees you as you sneak up and douse them in an ink bath they'll never forget. This turf is all yours — it's time to move on and paint the whole world in your team's colors.Get messy with Splatoon, a fun-filled third-person action shooter that challenges you to cover levels, and enemies, with a brilliant spray of colorful ink. Take on the role of an Inkling, a squid-like fighter ready to cover yourself and everything around you with your team's hues. Cover the terrain around you in ink to claim it, and spray walls to gain access to hard-to-reach areas. Earn high-powered super weapons by soaking your turf in ink, so you can cover your enemies in color or spray more territory. Put on your thinking cap to dream up devastating strategies, but don't forget to keep an eye on your turf — too much attention on the other team may lead to a redecoration of your own territory. Easily refill your tank or hide from enemies with just a touch of a button, or transform into a squid and dive into ink for a blazing-fast speed boost. Attack your own way with a multitude of control options thanks to the Wii U GamePad controller, including gyroscopic controls that let you look around, aim and more with precision. Band together with three friends and get online to take on other teams in four-on-four matches that will have you perched on the edge of your seat. A color-soaked battle awaits — are you ready to claim your turf?

A Fresh Take on an Oversaturated Genre
on August 16, 2015
Posted by: Apricot
Verified Purchase:Yes
Splatoon is such a charming and engrossing game! The whole art style paired with the whole sealife theme (squids, ink, etc.) is really cool! The online multiplayer is very fun and addicting, and the single player is pretty great. For anybody interested in this game, you need to make sure that you have a good Internet connection at home, as a huge bulk of the game revolves around online multiplayer, but for those who may not have access to Internet, there is still the single player mode, battle dojo (1 vs. 1 battles with a friend), and amiibo challenges (assuming you can find the Splatoon amiibos) that you can play offline.
Overall, this is an excellent third-person shooter! It's very different from shooters like Call of Duty, and it holds its own original and creative charm that other shooters just don't seem to have. It's definitely a much needed approach to a genre that has been oversaturated for years now.

Faithful Remake to an N64 Classic

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D is an excellent remake of the N64 classic! The game looks great in 3D and plays very well! By far, Majora's Mask has to be one of my favorite Zelda games in the franchise, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great game or to anyone who is a fan of the Zelda series.

High Quality, Incredible Figure of Dark Pit
on August 15, 2015
Posted by: Apricot
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an absolutely incredible figure of Dark Pit! It's very, very detailed and looks really nice! For $12.99, the quality you'll find in this figure is remarkable, especially for it being the size it is. Any amiibo collector, fan of Dark Pit/Kid Icarus, or Nintendo fan would definitely enjoy this figure, and i'd highly recommend it!
It's nice to see more obscure characters, like Dark Pit, getting their own figures, thanks to them being in Smash Bros. If only there weren't as many stock problems with the amiibos of the more obscure characters...

Pretty Decent Laser Lens Cleaner
on August 15, 2015
Posted by: Apricot
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased an Insignia Laser Lens Cleaner so that I could clean my CD player and the CD/DVD drives in my computers, and I believe this laser lens cleaner did a pretty decent job. I've never bought a CD/DVD laser lens cleaner before, so I didn't really know what to expect. However, I was surprised at how easy and intuitive it is to use. The laser lens cleaner plays in multiple different languages and cleans your CD/DVD drive very, very quickly (it surprised me at how fast it was). You need to put it into the CD/DVD drive that you would like to clean and play it on track 2 after you start (track 1 isn't in English). It will tell you to wait for the beep noise that comes later in the track, and when you hear the beep noise, you need to switch to track 9. Track 9 tells you that the laser lens cleaner has finished, and if you want, you may listen to some music that is already on the CD. That's all there is to it. I wish there was a better way for you to notice if the laser lens cleaner actually did clean the CD/DVD drive and how well it did clean it, as it only appears to have improved performance marginally, to be honest, but I believe it did a pretty solid cleaning job. Overall, I don't regret my purchase, and I would recommend this to anybody who needs to clean their CD/DVD drives (whether in a computer or an actual CD player).

This HP LED HD monitor lets you connect both analog and digital devices with VGA and two HDMI inputs increasing its versatility.
 

Does this model have a built in speaker

No, this monitor does not have built-in speakers. You'd need to purchase an HDMI audio splitter and some external speakers if you want to hear audio from devices that run audio through HDMI (like a media streaming device or a video game console).
