In an age of Gods and men, the ex-Spartan warrior Kratos refuses to cede power to the deities of Olympus. Betrayed and enraged, Kratos is determined to wreak his vengeance on the callous Gods. Over the course of his quest, he will solve complex puzzles and face off against some of mythology's darkest and most dangerous creatures. But these will only whet his appetite for annihilation, for Kratos has a larger goal in mind: toppling the mighty Zeus, the ruler of the Gods, and destroying Olympus once and for all.Return to the brutal world of ancient Greek mythology in God of War III Remastered. Rebuilt for the PlayStation 4, this iteration of the legendary franchise immerses you in Kratos' vengeful quest with 1080p visuals running at 60 fps. The stunningly detailed graphics showcase realistic muscle striations, detailed facial expressions, and elevated levels of violence and gore. Experience unbelievable depth of scale, ranging from the glittering marble Mount Olympus halls to the desolate deserts of Tartarus, and immerse yourself in the detailed 3D worlds lit by dynamic lights and higher resolution for realistic visuals. Engage in brutal combat, solve intricate puzzles and more. Use deadly new weapons, such as the Cestus and more, so you can grapple with enemies and unleash powerful wall-to-ground attacks. Showcase your favorite moments and unbelievable moves with Photo mode, which lets you freeze, edit, and share images. Scale the heights of Mount Olympus Gaia to rain carnage on the Gods of the Greek pantheon, and achieve revenge against all those who have betrayed you in God of War III Remastered.

Looks better than my PS3 version!

I played this game on the PS3 and enjoyed the challenge of it, so when I saw the price of this game drop I decided to try it out for the PS4.
The graphics were noticeably better, and the smoother gameplay made this upgrade worthwhile.

I was never a fan of using my PS4 controller to watch movies on my PS4, so when I saw this remote on sale, I jumped on it.
This unit makes perfect sense to buy if you use your system to watch movies.

Noticeable improvement over previous version

I already owned two copies of the last version of the Roku Streaming stick, so I was underwhelmed when I learned that Roku was upgrading their product. They promised a faster processor (yawn).
However, after plugging it in and turning on my set, I was wowed by how fast this thing loads! Then by how fast the remote syncs with the stick! Then by how much faster the apps load! This thing is the real deal! I ended up buying another one.
I talked my friends into buying one (of course, they were trying to glom the two units I was replacing...)

Happy with my upgrade

I had a small (but thoroughly annoying) crack on the screen of my iPad Air and wanted to buy a new one, but I have a policy to skip an iteration before buying a new iPad. I didn't want that monstrous iPad Pro 12.9 tablet, so I waited for the 9.7 version. How does Apple do it?! The speed is awesome, the fingerprint sign-in is fun and the new cameras are amazingI The new bells and whistles are well worth upgrading for.

Same present, in a better giftbox

I own the PS3 version of this game, but I bought this next-gen version when BB offered it for $10. Not sure exactly sure what I was expecting in terms of gameplay, but I did expect better graphics. The graphics increase wasn't significant, and if I'd paid full price for the game, I would have been disappointed, but for the price I paid it was worth the purchase.

Best streaming player on the market
on November 2, 2015
Posted by: Wanderer59

Verified Purchase:Yes
First off, I want to say what I DON'T like about the ROKU Streaming Stick: the remote control! I bought the first iteration of the Streaming Stick and the remote was hefty, sturdy and responsive. I liked it so much that I bought a second Stick for my other TV set. The second remote was thinner and flimsier than the first one, and stopped working on several occasions, or the directional buttons would stick, sending the remote into a clicking frenzy. I exchanged that device for a different one, and encountered the same problems, so it looks like a problem that Roku will have to deal with (or continue to ignore...).
Even though the remotes are troublesome, the ROKU Streaming Stick is still worth owning. It is the best of the breed. I own the Amazon Fire, the Amazon Fire Stick, the Apple TV, the Roku 2 and a few others not worth mentioning. I prefer the Roku Stick over the Roku 2 because the Stick doesn't require unobstructed access to the device, and it's more responsive.
The Roku's channel options are endless! You can access private channels via the Rokuguide.com website. Trust me when I tell you, there's something for everybody in the public and private channel sections. You can choose the channels that interest you, and upload them directly to your Roku menu.
If the remote wasn't such rubbish, I would give this device 5 stars.

This latest iteration of the Battlefield series takes us from a war torn country to the mean streets of the good ol' USA.
As a mediocre player, I found it challenging, but not impossible to complete.
I honestly don't see the replay value in this game though. After I beat it, I have no desire to play it again.

Best COD of them all!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased a PS4 last December. It was the first video game system I've owned in 20 years. I immediately became a fan of the Call of Duty franchise. Unfortunately, there are only two COD games available for the PS4. So, to sate my new addiction, I went out and bought a used PS3 so I could play the older COD games. As of this writing, I've played every COD title, and I can say without out a doubt that Black OPs II is the best of the franchise. The campaigns are fun and challenging, but the on-line gameplay is unparalleled!

The art of war may be thousands of years old, but on the battlegrounds of the future combat has become a big business. Where men and women once stood in defense of their nation the employees of Private Military Corporations (PMCs) are deployed, armed with the latest technologies and an arsenal of advanced weapons. Soldiers no longer need to specialize in any area of combat — equipped with powerful exoskeletons, they become the masters of all battlefield skills. In this new age of privatized combat, one PMC stands at the forefront of the industry, the juggernaut Atlas Corporation. Founded and led by Jonathan Irons, perhaps the most powerful man in the world, Atlas Corporation represents the evolution of modern combat. Under the oversight of Irons and men like him, the rules of warfare have been completely rewritten, and national borders change with the demands of the highest bidders. Do you have what it takes to navigate this ever-changing military landscape and answer the Call of Duty?The latest installment in the popular combat series, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare plunges you into the combat of the future, orchestrated and fought by PMCs with the latest technology in armor, weaponry and tactics. Enter the world of Jonathan Irons — the founder and president of the world's most dominant PMC, Atlas Corporation — in a powerful performance by Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey. Step onto the battlefield in a powerful exoskeleton that provides a massive force multiplier, delivers strategic freedom and enhances even the most adept soldier's abilities with optimized movement, jumping and grappling, covert cloaking abilities and biomechanics that take your strength, awareness, endurance and speed to the next level. Destroy opposing forces with an advanced arsenal that allows you to dominate the battlefield and all-new equipment, abilities and perks that put you at the forefront of combat technology. Conduct missions with hoverbikes, highly specialized drones and other new vehicles that enhance your mobility. Attack enemy forces with tried-and-true standard ammunition or step up your assault with new directed-energy weapons. The future of war is upon you — are you ready to play your part?

I bought the PS4 on a whim, and decided that I wanted to give the COD games a try. I played COD:Ghosts first and loved it! I bought Advanced Warfare before I even finished Ghosts, and couldn't wait to get to it. I'm not an online gamer (to my son's chagrin!), but AW campaigns require a lot more skill and participation than Ghosts does, thankfully, it's very forgiving so I was able to finish the game in Recruit mode. I re-played it in normal mode and found it to be a different game (MORE challenging!).
I LOVE this game, and can't wait for the next iteration!

I own both the Amazon Fire and the Amazon Stick, and other than a negligible difference in speed, I didn't notice any discernible difference between the two. Unless you're going to play games on your Amazon Fire (and why would you!), save yourself a few bucks and buy the Stick.
OR...go buy the Roku, it offers much more channels, although it's not as fast as the Fire.

Elite Platinum Air Fryer: Cook up your family's favorites with this fryer, which uses heated air vapors to ensure crispy, healthier French fries without the mess of oil. The 3.5-quart basket holds up to 2.5 lbs. of food to make enough for everyone.
 

Does this fryer come with a divider for the tray to cook two items at the same time? If not, what can I use to create a divider that's safe?

It does not come with a divider, but you can use any material that's safe to use in an oven, without any problems.

Is the tray non-stick? If yes, does the coating come off easily? Thanks.

I fried chicken breasts in the fryer when i first tried it, and they stuck to the tray, big time!
So, I coat the tray with Pam before I fry anything now and haven't had any problems since then.
