Metallica's best album since ..and Justice for All
on April 6, 2011
Posted by: stolan10

Awesome album! If you are a true Metallica fan then you will love this cd. My second favorite Metallica cd. Only ....and Justice for All is better! Buy this cd! You will love it! If you don't like it, then go listen to hip hop or some other form of lame music, you are not a metal fan.
What's great about it: Everything!
What's not so great: nothing

the demo for this game was bad. bland. not any fun at all. i waited hours for this game demo to download and i played a couple matches and it wasn't fun at all. If you want a great 3rd person game, go with Uncharted. This demo was a waste of my time.
What's great about it: Great graphics

I love Disney movies, but these movies are boring

I love Disney. We have almost all of the Disney movies on blu. These two movies are terrible. I wish I never bought them. The only good thing about them was the Sorcerers Apprentice scene. That was it. the rest was terrible. I want my 35 dollars back. Other than The Toothfairy, this is the worst Disney movie ever made!

The Helghast just won't die. You defeated their violent, cold-hearted leader, Visari. Along with the Interplanetary Strategic Alliance, you evacuated their planet. You thought it was over. You thought wrong. The Helghast have returned to terrorize the universe with more battalions, more weapons and more anger than ever. The threat is as real as ever — it's a Killzone out there and the challenge is on. Even the power of the ISA seems unable to match the recharged armies of the Helghast, and the future looks bleak. The universe needs someone with sharpshooting precision and untiring courage. The universe needs a hero. The universe needs you.Boldly return to the future's most terrifying and challenging epic war, and engross yourself in the gripping plot and heart-pounding action of Killzone 3. The battle is more brutal than ever as you fight face-to-face with Helghast troops in the new melee system. Do you dare to step even further into the fray to experience the bullets blazing into your living room and the frightful enemies marching out of your TV screen? This time, Killzone is compatible with 3D technology to really pull you into the battle. Play alone and control all the action of war with your own fingertips, or enlist your friends to join you in innovative new game modes. This time around, you have more abilities, more advanced weapons and more access to thrilling high-speed vehicles than before. But remember, your enemy is just as strong — it will take guts and tenacity to be the one who will come out on top and survive the Killzone this time.

Better than Call of Duty

This game is amazing! After playing Killzone 2 I was afraid that the slow controls would carry over to 3. They didn't. The controls are pretty much the same as Call of Duty controls. The campaign is awesome! I own all the Call of Duty's on PS3 and I can honestly say that Killzone 3 beats them all! Buy this game! If you do buy it and regret it, you have no good taste in video games. BUY THIS GAME!!!!

One word: PERFECTION! I have been a gamer since 1996, I have played a TON of games, and this is by far the greatest game I have ever played!

I would recommend this game to everyone! This is one of those games that you couldn't imagine anyone not liking it! BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a good game. it's glitchy now and then, but it's good. I'm glad i didn't pay 60 for it though. I would pay 30 tops for it. I hope to see a second one come out in the next year of two.

Continents erupt in flames and hails of gunfire as war breaks out on an unprecedented scale. This is World War II, where a massive conflict rages on two fronts: Europe and the South Pacific. Answer your nation's call and travel to distant lands where you'll take part in devastating battles that gripped a generation and laid the foundation for the world as we know it today. Do you have the courage, the cunning and the commitment to fulfill your duties and see the war through to its harrowing end?Prepare for global conflict presented in all its terrible grit and immediacy. In Call of Duty: World at War, you assume the role of a U.S. Marine or a Russian soldier in the waning days of the Second World War. Travel to the far reaches of the conflict, from war-plagued Berlin to the dense jungles of the Pacific theater, as you confront enemies who refuse to contemplate surrender or retreat and who fight all the more desperately — and more dangerously — knowing the end is near. Employ the weapons at your disposal, including a flamethrower and other new infantry and vehicle-based weapons, and fight to complete your mission as battles explode around you with all the terrible chaos of real war.

The Best FPS ever made!

This game is amazing! I love this game! I've beat it multiple times and it is still extremely fun! If you are going to buy a Call of Duty game, or a FPS game of any kind, buy this one! You will not be disappointed! the only way you wouldn't like this game is if you are allergic to fun! Call of Duty Modern Warfare 1, 2, and Black Ops are awesome games too, but if you are going to buy just one, buy this one! The graphics are amazing, the story is awesome, and the replay value is one of the highest i have ever played! Even the online multiplayer is amazing! This is the game that got me into online gaming, and i still play it! THIS GAME IS THE BEST FPS EVER MADE!

The movie was great! I think it's up there with the Shrek movies and Toy Story movies. I'll be honest, I didn't really want to see this movie when i first saw previews for it. My sister bought my family it for Christmas and we watched it, and loved it. I'm soo glad she bought it for us!

All four of the movies are great! My whole family loves them all! The only thing I didn't like about it was that it says it's the whole story, and it's not. Shrek the Halls was not in the set. If it was, I couldn't find it. Other than it not having Shrek the Halls, this is a must-buy.

Not Good At All
By dansatx from texas
Let me say that I played the heck out of Killzone 2. KZ2 was a lot of fun! That being said I never thought that such a good game franchise could go downhill so much, so fast.
The thing I hate the most about this game is its monochromatic tone throughout. I get that we are on Helghast but the developers failed to take into account that the game has to actually be playable! The color is totally washed out. This is especially evident in multiplayer. In multiplayer the color is so washed out you can't tell who is on your team and who is the enemy. I literally find myself blasting away an entire magazine at some guy only to realize that he is on my team. Also, the screen is purposely blurred/hazy on some maps so much so that I thought my new 55" LCD Sony Vaio was messing up but no, it's only this game. Another annoying thing about the picture is that for some reason the developers thought it would be cool to present some of the scenes in the multiplayer maps at an angled tilt. For instance, a column that is supposed to be vertical 90 degrees, is tilted approximately 10 degrees left or right. This one effect is enough to give me a headache after a few minutes of game play.
I hate to say this but this game sucks! Don't waste your money! I reserved my copy at Gamestop a month ago and have played for all of two days trying to force myself to enjoy playing it but as of this post I am throwing in the towel and taking/trading it back to Gamestop.

TERRIBLE GAME!!!
By chopsticks from Baltimore
I purchased this game and played it for about 70% of the game then just couldn't take it anymore. It's like Little Big Planet (which is good) only the game gives you weapons.
Here is the sequence of the game. Solve a riddle that should be on Sesame Street for about 20 seconds, take out 50 guys for about 3 hours (keep in mind you stay in the SAME AREA because the graphics lock you into certain areas), then jump along the cliffs trying to fall for another 3 minutes - then repeat. Occasionally the game throws SOMETHING interesting in, but that lasts about 45 seconds and it's back to repeating the above. Just BORING - reminds me of Crash Bandicoot A LOT actually (the really old ones). You go along a designated path, and the NONE of ANYTHING that varies from the path that must be followed, even moves if it is touched.
Depth and even situations that should be "strategic" take little or no thought. But it's solve simple riddle for a few seconds, take out a gaggle of guys for hours (mainly all in the same area), jump along a cliff for about a minute - then repeat.
