As you take in the pleasant view outside your window, it's hard to fathom that it could all be swept away in the blink of an eye. For Artyom, however, there's no need to imagine — after the devastation of an apocalyptic event, the only hope for salvation lies in the darkness deep beneath Moscow in the underground. The Metro franchise introduced you to Artyom's world as you plunged into the survival horror genre with Metro 2033, then kept you riveted in the action-packed follow-up, Metro: Last Night. Now, get ready to return to the terror and brutality that defines this hellish world on a first-person shooter thrill ride that tests your will to survive in every way.Metro Redux includes Metro 2033, the terrifying first chapter of Artyom's struggle for survival in the ruins of his city, as well as Metro: Last Night, the heart-pounding continuation. The nightmare begins in Metro 2033 as Artyom, a survivor of an apocalyptic event 20 years in the past, is forced to leave the relative safety of Moscow's underground and emerge into a world populated by murderous mutants and full of toxicity and danger around every corner. As if the world outside wasn't horrific enough, Metro: Last Light brings the terror underground as Artyom struggles to save humanity as it perches on the edge of civil war and ultimate destruction. Struggle for survival armed only with homemade weapons and your trusty gasmask as you fight your way through two action-saturated campaigns with all-new melee animations, plus hours of thrilling DLC. Immerse yourself in the bleak world of post-apocalyptic Moscow with stunning imagery rendered in silky smooth 60 fps, as well as new lighting, physics, dynamic weather effects and full-body player animations. Take charge with improved AI, controls and weapon handling and easily check your watch and ammo supplies on the fly. Prepare yourself for slow-burning intensity in Survival mode, or duke it out in brutal combat in Spartan mode. Rise to the ultimate challenge as you wage deadlier battles with fewer resources and without the benefit of HUD or UI in Ranger mode. The odds are bad and the stakes are high — do you have what it takes to save what's left of the world?

Typical HD upgrade.

If you enjoyed the originals you will enjoy this one because it's the exact same title. The graphical improvements are good, but if you've played through them on previous gen systems you won't find anything really new in terms of gameplay or story. If you've never played them then this is absolutely the way to go, and you get two for the price of one which is an absolute bargain on these games.

Got this in exchange for a COD: AW controller that was busted. Had it for months and used it constantly. Works like a charm and looks great with my orange FPS Freaks.

I'd love to review this controller and how well it responded when playing a game, but it never turned on. Brought it back to Best Buy and they couldn't get it to work either. Was hoping to trade it in for another, but it was out of print and off store shelves completely only 2 days after I got it! They gave me my money back, but that's not what I wanted. I wanted this limited edition controller...and now I will never get one.

BioWare at there very best!

I have been a huge fan of BioWare ever since Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and have followed their titles ever since. This is the culmination of every flash of brilliance they have had all wrapped up into one amazing game. The other Dragon Age titles have significant impact on this game, but if you have not played the two previous games don't worry. They have an incredibly user friendly and highly detailed interface free online that walks you through every (seemingly) big and small decision of the other games and sets you up to play a game that is a truly unique and wholly your own doing. Well worth all the Game of the Year awards it received.

I'm a big fan of the original film. It will always be superior to this reboot in just about every way. With that said, this is a great reinterpretation of RoboCop for the modern age that we live in. Great performances by this all star cast.

Based on the adaptation of a BBC miniseries of the same name, House of Cards is set in Washington, D.C., where democrat Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) serves as the House Majority Whip and represents South Carolina's 5th congressional district. When he is not appointed as Secretary of State as expected, Underwood vows to exact revenge upon those whom he feels betrayed him. Robin Wright, Kate Mara, and Corey Stoll also star. House of Cards earned nine nominations for original online only web television for the 65th Primetime Emmy Awards in 2013

Acting, writing, cinematography...literally EVERYTHING is top notch in this show. Frank Underwood makes Walter White look like a girl scout trying to bake and sell her own brand of cookies. Blu-ray collection has great behind the scenes stuff and excellent quality picture.

You step into the arena with your muscles gleaming in the light. Your opponent is trying to intimidate you with flips, splits, air punches and more, but you're not scared. The countdown ends and the battle starts. Within moments, a flurry of punches, kicks, special moves, roundhouses and more come at you — but you did your homework and are prepared. Just as a right hook lands and a leg sweep begins to take shape, you spot your chance. You jump to avoid the sweep and land a swift jab, sending your opponent back. As he staggers, you continue to duck, punch, kick and more. Just as he seems ready to counter your combo, you place a perfectly timed uppercut under his chin — sending him head over heels to the ground.With updated visuals, over-the-top action, adrenaline-pumping music and new Combo Breakers, the legendary fighting game franchise is back with Killer Instinct: Combo Breaker Pack. Select your fighter from a wild cast of combatants and step into the arena to battle it out in thrilling, heart-racing conflicts. Enjoy the fluid animations, distinctive tactics and flashy special attacks that are unique to each fighter. Arm yourself with the open-ended combo system to build huge combos as you battle your enemy, but beware — he or she will look for openings to break your string and turn the tides of battle. Featuring all eight fighters from Season 1, plus a bonus fighter from Season 2 via the included download code, you'll have plenty of combatants with which to head into battle. Are you ready for an all-new Killer Instinct experience?

Great Fighting Title
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: MissionRocker
Verified Purchase:Yes
So glad they brought back Killer Instinct! This collection is absolutely worth it if you like the original or are a fan of the Street Fighter style of combo based fighting games. However, this is only season one. That means it's only half of the full roster of characters, since season 2 is currently being released one new character at a time. Great way to jump in to the game and a major savings over buying each character individually.

Typical COD grind, but Extinction is a nice change
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: MissionRocker
Verified Purchase:Yes
I gave up on COD back when MW3 was released. I just stopped buying them because it was the same old stuff every game.
For the most part COD: Ghosts is no exception to that rule. I got it on sale for about $20 brand new mainly for the Extinction mode. After playing that with several friends I would consider it to have been worth it. The extinction mode has much more structure than Zombies and I prefer that. It's a lot more than just survive the next wave, it's objective based with each wave you encounter so it helps facilitate team work and cooperation.

Is Gold worth it? That depends...
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: MissionRocker
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you enjoy playing online against people then it is absolutely mandatory to have a Gold account. You're not doing that without it.
If you are a single player or couch buddy focused gamer then Gold isn't really all that necessary unless you want to take advantage of the "Free Games with Gold" titles released every month.
Additionally, the Games with Gold titles that have released each month for the Xbox 360 have been far superior to the titles that have released on the Xbox One. So, if you just have an Xbox One and don't do much multiplayer online then Gold might not bee very valuable to you at this time. IMHO.
