Functional and spacious

As a portable drive, it is very effective. If you are running out of room on your computer/XBOX One/PS4, simply plug this in to expand your storage. You will most likely need to format it to work with the PS4, but this is a great expansion drive that DOES NOT require an electrical outlet to power.

Great follow-up to the Lego Movie,with more Batman
on July 14, 2017
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
Forget the "twist" of the Lego movie, this is pure Batman (with a bunch of other Lego sets thrown in for good measure, including Harry Potter). Same over-the-top action, with a heart warming message about the importance of others, there is usually something to keep the smile on your face through the movie (although it is slightly too long). 3D effects are great, worth it if you have a 3D TV. Pick it up now!

Solid earbuds, not all that comfortable
on July 14, 2017
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
Earbuds are a personal experience--everyone's is different. For me, the earbuds don't fit comfortably for extended listening (over 45 minutes, so the end of the exercise is cutting it close). That said, the sound is pretty good, especially for a sub $50 earbud. Even better if you can get it on sale, you have strong bass support (as you would expect from Sony). Not quite noise cancelling, but close enough. The comparison is close to Klipsch (sorry for the spelling), with the slight edge to Klipsch, but for a much cheaper price. Still, a good product--just my ears aren't always happy when I'm done.

Strong second season
on July 14, 2017
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
You absolutely cannot watch this season without watching the first season. This continues the story of heroes in Fillroy. Or does it? Season one ended with a dramatic cliffhanger, and while it seemed hopeless, season two explains how things can continue very early on. If you watched the first season and loved it, you will love the second season.

Excellent multiplayer shooter, okay single player
on October 25, 2016
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Battlefield series has always excelled at HUGE multiplayer battles, and for Battlefield 1, it envelopes a mostly realistic WW1 setting (things are sped-up to make it more "fun"). The battles are gigantic and always fast-paced. The single player campaign is a collection of stories involving different characters as they play a part in WW1. The online gameplay is definitely the strength, and a lot of fun to play. Even those new to online play can enjoy their time in this game, as it is not too difficult to be effective. At the end of the day, this is a fun experience, and something I go back to on a regular basis.

The beautiful, scenic Mediterranean republic of Medici used to be home to Rico Rodriguez. Even though he grew up here, he was forced to flee as a youngster when a violent military coup took control.

General Di Ravello was the head of the occupying force that originally seized power, and has remained in power ever since.

Rico, realizing what's at stake, decides to rally the freedom fighters, take back the land and liberate his home.Return to the epic franchise with Rico Rodriguez, as he takes on a new fight in Just Cause 3. Return to Rico's homeland, the Mediterranean republic of Medici, which has been violently occupied by General Di Ravello and his forces.

Jump out of a helicopter with your wingsuit to complete unique challenges or surprise enemies by soaring around the world quickly.

A buggy mess
on January 5, 2016
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
I still enjoyed the game, but it is still incredibly buggy and slow (especially when a lot of stuff is happening on the screen). You are basically trying to create as much chaos as you possibly can to move the plot along (think of a GTA, but playing a "good" guy instead of the bad guys. There is a lot to do, and if they can every fix the frame rate and bugs, this would be a blast. But there are times when the game slows to a crawl and is unplayable. If you can put up with occasional hanging gameplay and slow frame rates, and you like causing destruction, give it a go if it's on sale. Otherwise, you may want to stay away for now.

Fun origin story
on January 5, 2016
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you are a fan of the Marvel movies, you will find a lot to like with this origin story of Ant-Man. It is not spectacular, but very servicable, with likable main characters and a quickly moving plot. The only negative is the "bad" guy, who is cardboard cut-out of a character (like in most Marvel movies, it's always the poorly written bad guy that lets the movie down). But there are some fun set pieces (the main heist, and the great final battle) that make this one worth watching.

A Blast from the Past
on December 3, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
Final Fantasy X was the first FF game for the PS2, and was a gorgeous game in its day (and holds up well in this remastered version). The plot is absolutely ridiculous, but if you love old-school RPG's with long, unskippable cut-scenes, then give this a shot. If you remember the game foundly (and it's sequel, also included), then it's worth picking up. If you like 40 plus hour-long RPG's, then pick it up. If you like your RPG's to make sense, look elsewhere (basically, a big ball of SIN is coming to destroy the world, and you have to figure out what it is and how to stop it). Still, it can be a fun experience and a nice throughback to RPG's gone-by.

A REALLY expensive Lego game
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
Your mileage will vary with this, but it's a great campaign with a bunch of additional content you can purchase (varying in cost from $12 up to $30). Some of the extra content is just characters you can play as (Ninjago, Scooby Doo, etc), or additional levels (Portal, Simpsons, Back to the Future, and Dr. Who). You start as characters from Lord of the Rings, the Lego movie and Lego Batman, but you can switch in and out with additional characters. Some kids may not get all of the references, but this is a lot of fun. But it will cost a LOT of money to experience all the game has to offer. Recommended, but be prepared to have to purchase those extra characters and levels, especially if your child loves those characters.

Not quite what it should be, but still good
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is basically an online multiplayer shooter that has moments of brilliance, but struggles with several lame modes and missed opportunities. Ship combat is a huge disappointment, but almost everything else reflects the Star Wars universe perfectly. There is an offline mode that consists of surviving waves of Imperial forces, but that's pretty much it for offline. There is no story mode, just big battles, unique modes of hero vs. hero (not as cool as it sounds), capture the flag (a whiff in the Star Wars universe), and other modes of varying degrees of fun. If you love Star Wars, you should probably get this, but other than the Star Wars setting, there isn't much to get excited about as a FPS.

Setting up. Won't let me select "English" or any other language

I'm not off to a good start. The on light is on, the blue wireless light is blinking. Now I am to select a language, and it won't do anything. Help please.
Sounds like a defective printer. If you aren't able to get the touchscreen to work on the printer, you need to get it replaced. Contact HP or return it.

HP Officejet Pro 8610 stays offline. Can't get it to print. I have Windows 10.

Unplug it for 30 seconds. Plug it back in. That should "reset" the printer. You may also want to make sure that your printer and computer are on the same network (I find this happens a lot with my laptop, especially in connecting between my regular Xfinity connection and the Public Xfinity connection). If your computer and printer are on different wireless networks, it will always show as "offline". If it will not connect after these two steps, you will probably need to contact HP. Hope that helps!
