Fun shooter, nothing special
on January 16, 2015
Posted by: WiredSternum
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a multiplayer only shooter, with the added mechanic that every so often you get to use a giant mech. It's pretty fun but ultimately shallow, unless you really love running around shooting other players all day. The story is sadly pretty lacking. But if you're a COD fanboy, you're sure to love this too.

Good console if you can get it on sale

It's not as powerful as the ps4, but the bundle with 2 AC games (and some extra sale $$) is a great deal. Plus it has Sunset Overdrive which is crazy fun only to be had on the XB1.

Awesome classic JRPG

If you're a fan of the Final Fantasy series or Japanese role-playing games in general, you must play this game. The story, graphics, and gameplay are all fantastic, and you could easily spend over 100 hours playing this game if you wanted to. Definitely play this one.

Fantastic platformer
on December 15, 2014
Posted by: WiredSternum
Verified Purchase:Yes
Kirby is one of Nintendo's under-appreciated franchises, in my opinion. This game has excellent platformer mechanics, interesting challenges (without being too difficult) and fun things to find in the game. I definitely recommend it, especially if you're a little tired with Nintendo's more usual characters of Mario and Luigi.

Decent if you're a franchise fan

Has a cool steelcase and comes with a prequel mini-comic (hardback book). Those are nice touches. The movie itself isn't terrible, and it's cool for people who are fans of the WH40K universe. As someone who played the tabletop game a long time ago, this was a fun way to revisit that universe.

Excellent edition of a decent expansion
on November 21, 2014
Posted by: WiredSternum
Verified Purchase:Yes
Warlords of Draenor is a great place to get started if you've never tried WoW before, as you get a boost to level 90 on one character so that you can jump right in and start playing with your friends that have played the game for years. If you're experienced with WoW, you probably already have this expansion. If you're not sure, I'd say just get the regular edition and give it a try.
The Collector's Edition (CE) is excellent as usual for Blizzard. The art book is the high quality one would expect from Blizz, the mouse-pad is pretty cool, the making-of documentary and soundtrack are both pretty standard. The in-game goodies are neat, although the D3 banner is a little lackluster compared to the pairs of wings we got with CEs of D3, Reaper, or Heart of the Swarm. The mount is pretty cool, probably my favorite of any of the CE mounts so far. If you're into the Pet Battles, the pet from this edition is quite good.
Overall, if you're a fan of all things Blizzard like me, you should probably get this version.

Very entertaining animated film for DC fans

If you love Superman and/or Batman, you need to watch this movie, end of story. It's an entertaining story, has great animation, and you get to listen to Kevin Conroy brilliantly act as Batman once again. What's not to love?

Great value for (mostly) decent films
on October 6, 2014
Posted by: WiredSternum
Verified Purchase:Yes
It needs to be said up front: this is not Christopher Nolan's Batman. Fans of the source material (including classics like The Man Who Laughs) will find the Tim Burton films entertaining, but they are starting to show their age. Watched with the context of their original release times in mind, however, they are the dark comic-book films that Batman fans wanted after all the camp of the 1960's Adam West show. Jack Nicholson shines as the Joker, but please don't compare him to Heath Ledger. Ledger was amazing in the role, but so is Jack. They both portray the character in different ways, and both are equally chilling in their insanity. There's room for both in the supervillain pantheon.
Batman Forever is somewhat entertaining, although admittedly more kid-friendly, and Batman & Robin is admittedly pretty bad.
Bottom line, this is a collection with great value, and needs to be in every Batfan's lineup.

Entertaining sci-fi adaptation
on October 6, 2014
Posted by: WiredSternum
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a Russian film loosely based on the Sergei Lukyanenko novel of the same name. There are some pretty cool actions scenes in the film, although the plot can be a little confusing and may require a second or third watching to pick up all the little details. But that's not a bad thing, as it's an entertaining watch. I can't speak to the quality of the adaptation, as I've not read the original novel. It is on my shelf though, having just been re-released in the US alongside the 3 follow-up novels.
Fans of weird sci-fi/fantasy action films will enjoy this, but you have to go into it with an open mind.

Fun 2.5D platformer
on October 6, 2014
Posted by: WiredSternum
Verified Purchase:Yes
This game is pretty fun overall. It's like a traditional 2D platformer in that you move from left to right through the stage, but it also involves moving up and down through the levels or from back to front. It makes pretty good use of the 3D effects of the 3DS. If you're looking for a 3D platformer like Super Mario 64, you might be better off picking up Super Mario 64 DS, the last-handheld-generation remake of the 64-bit classic. But if you want a modern take on the classic Super Mario action of games like Super Mario Bros.(NES) or Super Mario World (SNES), you'll find a lot to like here.
