Everything changed with the arrival of the Traveler. It sparked a Golden Age when our civilization spanned our solar system, but it didn't last. Something hit us, knocked us down. The survivors built a city beneath the Traveler, and have begun to explore our old worlds, only to find them filled with deadly foes.You are a Guardian of the last safe city on Earth, able to wield incredible power. Defend the City. Defeat our enemies. Reclaim all that we have lost.

I expected something different...

I was a Bungie fan dating back to Halo: Combat Evolved on the Original XboX. Halo got me back into playing video games. When I heard that Bungie was making a new sci-fi epic game, I was thrilled. I tried to get into Destiny, but I didn't find the gameplay compelling enough to keep the game, let alone GRIND through the boring/repetitive levels. The story didn't grab me and the gunplay gets old pretty quickly. I know people who love this game, but i am not one of the them. I also purchased the Destiny PS4 bundle at the same time. I kept the PS4 and sold Destiny for both systems.

I use this system everyday....

I'll admit it; I bought this PS4 in white because I thought it looked sharp and I thought Destiny would be great. I use my PS4 everyday to play games, access netflix, or play blu-rays. The interface is a lot simpler and more user friendly than the PS3. I have heard complaints about the PSN internet service, but I haven't experienced any big issues since I bought this 9/9/14. I wish there was a larger AAA game library and more apps, but overall, I am very satisfied. I have been particularly happy with The Last of Us, Battlefield 4, Metro Redux, and Far Cry 4. I didn't really like Destiny, ironically, so I sold the software and kept the hardware. I have grown to appreciate the PS4 controller even though I considered the XboX 360 controller to be far superior to previous Sony controllers. There are less expensive PS4 offers and bundles out there, but this was the only package in white at the time of my purchase. RECOMMENDATIONS: I would recommend the Sony Gold headphones if you can get them for $69 or so. I love the completely wireless experience when I am playing Battlefied 4 on-line or just talking-to friends in a party. I think you should also consider purchasing a second controller. It's handy to have a back-up ready when your battery dies after about 11 hours of use.

This movie looks great on Blu-ray. I think this is the best of the Marvel film offerings since Ironman. I enjoyed the mixture of special effects, action sequences and story.

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?

Great gaming experience!

This game looks great on PS4! Long story short: this is a great value in video gaming. The Metro Redux collection includes both Metro games redone in HD. Both games have a unique perspective on a post apocalyptic world that is very engrossing paired with a compelling story packed with intense suspense and furious action. I wish that the Metro game experience was open world; there is so much story and environment to explore and experience. I will admit that both games start off a little slow in the beginning but, that helps build the suspense for later encounters. However, hours melted away as I became involved in the lead characters's journey. Buy this.

I Liked this movie... I will not discuss details of plot or story. This is a fun low budget twilight zone or Bradberry-esque short story where the characters successfully over shadow the technology and sci-fi elements. I bought one copy as a gift and another for myself.

Sci-fi Lite...

I bought this 2 film Blu-Ray as part of a promotion. I hadn't seen either film before, so I took a chance. I really liked LockOut. It's a hybrid of everything Die Hard and Sci-Fi stereotypes. The plot is simple but the performance by Guy Pearce and various supporting actors is fun to watch. I expected more from Battle Los Angeles. There is a lot of CGI that is done very well and a good supporting cast of characters. However, there are significant plot holes/gaps that take away from the overall experience. I may give it a second view to see if I truly missed something. That being said, it's not a bad 2-for-1 package deal for a couple big budget "B" movies. Definitely worth it if you get on sale for $7 or less...

An interesting, but socially heavy handed morality tale disguised as a sci-fi movie. Once I turned off my higher brain commentary and political criticisms, I enjoyed the film thoroughly. I prefer films that craft their own world, aesthetic, and mythos. The dystopian/broken/scorched earth setting of this film is visually interesting and impactful to experience. There is an interesting mix of action and science fiction elements to keep you interested. In short, it's worth adding to your collection. A fun diversion on a winter night with a beer and a bowl a popcorn.

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?

After my negative experiences with C.O.D. Ghosts, I was hesitant to play this year's incarnation. I was pleasantly surprised with the production values of the campaign and and the pace of multiplayer games. I played through the campaign 2.5 times. I was intrigued by the presence of Kevin spacey as a pivotal character. I applaud the effort put into the campaign after ghosts being a completely forgettable and incredibly short game with broken multiplayer. I am sure there are many people who will love this revitalization of the franchise, but it failed to hold my interest. I enjoyed Black Ops 2's campaign and multiplayer maps and modes much more than this game. I wish i could have rented it before purchasing. I sold my copy back to Best Buy recently.

wireless

I want to make sure. It is wireless...right?
No, this headset plugs into the controller. The picture online may not accurately show the wired aspect of the product. I can see that I didn't make that clear in my latest review. I apologize if there was any confusion.
