Don't let this slip by!
on November 14, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
In a very busy game season, don't let this one slip past you. This is, perhaps, the most polished action in a video game since Uncharted 2. You will find the same type of game play from the reboot, but with "open-world" hubs that allow you to explore, raid extra tombs, and upgrade your equipment. You will climb, explore, solve puzzles, kill bad guys, and have a blast from start to finish! This is the best exclusive on the Xbox this year--get it now!

Excellent External Hard Drive for XBOX One
on November 6, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this for my XBOX One so that I could add external storage. It was very easy to hook and and use, and the transfer rate is excellent. It is actually faster to play games off of this hard drive than on the installed one the XBOX comes with. I imagine it would work just as well with a PC. Very highly recommended!

It's Halo with a 4 player campaign
on October 28, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
You play much of the game as Spartan Locke as he is sent on mission after mission, ultimately tracking down the true hero of the Halo universe, Master Chief. The story gets unnecessarily complicated, but the gameplay is incredible. The real draw is the four-player co-op (online only, no couch co-cop) for the campaign. Yes, you can play with four players through the campaign. If not, you will have computer AI take the roles of your teammates throughout the fifteen missions that await. There isn't much of an ending as it simply sets up the next game. But it's still a blast. The online is great as well, and the future maps and gameplay modes will be provided FREE (no paid DLC for Halo 5). Well worth the price!

Good movie, Great 3D!
on October 22, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have a 3-D capable TV and blu-ray player, PICK THIS UP! It is a great transfer. If you are unfamiliar with the Jurassic Park universe, dinosaurs have been re-created from DNA...you know what, that's not important. There are dinosaurs, including brand-new, never before seen ones, and they are running wild. Chris Pratt plays the guy who saves the day (never really in doubt), but it's the awesome set-pieces with dinosaurs that you are here to see. It's a great spectacle (don't over think the plot, because it is almost a repeat of the first movie), and a fantastic transfer for those with 3D capable television sets!

Once the sounds of taxi cabs, buses, people on cell phones and advertisements permeated every sonic fiber of our senses. Now only deafening silence rules the airwaves. Yet it's what hides in the silence that could be the deadliest. Following the same formula as the original, Wasteland 2 plunges you into a hellish landscape with the same core gameplay, but modernizes it with stunning visuals and a thrilling storyline. Make the tough decisions, which come with both short- and long-term consequences that will affect the outcome of the story. Engage in tactical turn-based combat that puts your strategy skills to the test. With this Director's Cut, you'll receive the definitive Wasteland 2 experience with enhanced visuals, expanded voiceovers and more. It's time for you to make your mark on the Wasteland — or die trying.

The pre-curser to Fallout
on October 22, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
The original Wasteland appeared in the late 80's on home computers, and this sequel was a Kickstarter success for PC's several years ago. If you are familiar with Fallout 1 & 2 (not 3 or New Vegas), you will know this is a tactical, team-based RPG (not a shooter). There is a TON to get lost in as far as customization, and it is a blast. It can be hard to keep track of everything, but if you like post-apocalyptic wastelands that challenge you to think without challenging your reflexes, pick this up and enjoy!

When Kisaragi Academy's class 2-9 ventured to the hellish, Heavenly Host Elementary, not many survived. Those unfortunate ones were doomed to remain there forever — eternally trapped within the walls and forced to re-live the pain they felt at the exact moment of their death. Worse still was the fact that all memories and records of their physical existence were completely wiped from the Earth, and only those who survived were able to mourn their loss. The last hope for reversing these fates lived with the Book of Shadows. However, Ayumi Shinozaki's attempts to employ the power claimed another victim and the book was lost forever — or was it? An acquaintance of one of the deceased has shown up with a spiritual photograph, which suggests that the Book of Shadows is now residing in the Heavenly Host. Now, Ayumi is determined to find it, so she can attempt to bring back her friends again. The final chapter to the Corpse Party saga is here, and it's time to return to the Heavenly Host Elementary to hopefully bring back your friends. Embark on 11 huge story chapters and eight supplemental Extra Chapters, and interact with your environment to trigger visual novel-style cutscenes that advance the storyline. Become immersed in the action with binaural 3D audio for simulated surround sound, the screen-altering Darkening system and more. Use the in-game flashlight to explore the environments in full 3D for the first time ever, and engage with new gameplay systems that employ new ways to kill and fight back. The final chapter is here — will you be able to save your friends?

Creepy fun
on October 22, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have played Corpse Party before (on the PSP, but you can also play them on the Vita), then you MUST pick this up. It's a great continuation to the absolutely creepy series. If you are new, you may want to start earlier, but here's the gist--students go to their school to participate in a "seance" which brings all sorts of scary things to light. Some survive, some don't, and in the process, you will get creeped out (play this game wearing ear buds, if you dare). It's a slight RPG style, but more of a visual novel (with some gameplay elements) but still a lot of fun, especially if you like being scared.

A servicable printer that guzzles ink
on October 22, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a good printer that I got at a great price ($100 on sale). It prints two-sided documents (but CANNOT scan two-sided documents). It's a decent speed (if you are doing both sides, it takes about 12 seconds a page, otherwise it's about 5 seconds). It holds 250 pages in the input tray, printing wirelessly on a network (including phones and tablets). BUT, it goes through ink like there is no tomorrow. Your regular printing will last you about 600-800 pages before you're done, and if you go with the XL cartridges, you'll get about 1200-1400. So if you are using this for an office situation, be careful. Black ink runs about $27 regular price (with the XL being $38), and then you have the color cartridges which are not cheap, either. I've had no complaints about the quality of the print, but you will go through ink quickly if you print a lot in your situation.

It's Han Solo!
on October 22, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
You need Infinity 3.0 in order for Han to work (he's just a character you can use in the game, not a game in and of himself). But for so many, Han is the lovable rebel we wanted to be when we grow up (I mean my kids--my kids want to be when they grow up). His character is a shooter, so no lightsabers for him. But, it's Han Solo! The shtick, the punny lines--he's well worth it if you like the character in the movies. If you have Infinity 3.0, it's an instabuy!

Incredibly disturbing horror story
on October 22, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
The hidden morality in this season of AHS is that everyone deserves respect, but don't come for the morality--come for the absolute creepfest that is Twisty. No more clowns for me! Anyway, there is "some" continuity between seasons, but it is not necessary to have watched other seasons. The trick here is revealing the humanity (sub-humanity?) of some of the "freaks" that we come to know, and at points, love (hate) throughout. If you are not a fan of gore or freaky imagery, STAY AWAY. But, if you can stomach the gruesomeness, go for it!

A great slow burn, character-driven drama
on October 22, 2015
Posted by: JimmyB
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you aren't familiar with the general conceit, about 2% of the world's population suddenly disappears. You will not get an answer as to why in this first season, but what you will get is an incredible drama dealing with the lives of those left behind in the small town of Mapletown, NY. How do you pick up when your town, your friends, your family, has been devastated by an unexplainable tragedy that may have religious implications? How do you put society back together when there are people who seemingly want to pull it apart? This is a fantastically written, well acted story that is worth watching. Just don't expect answers to the "what happened," question.

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!
