Great controller
Expensive but dont get the bad $20 controllers from off brands
One thing is that it isnt quite as durable as Xbox 360 controllers
What's great about it: Comfort, No batteries, light weight, really nice!
What's not so great: Expensive, A little bit fragile
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fasten your seatbelt and get ready to drive like your life depends on it. Perilous mountains, arid deserts and thick forests threaten your safety at every turn as you speed through the extreme Seacrest County landscape — but the biggest hazard is hot on your tail. A cop chases you in reckless pursuit — a friend of yours until you turned away from the law. You feel the bullets from his high-powered weapons shattering your glass and whizzing past your ear, but you just stare at the course ahead, twist the steering wheel and throttle forward. It's a heart-stopping Hot Pursuit and your life's in danger at every moment. But you can't slow down now — freedom is just a few maneuvers away, and you have just one concern: the Need for Speed.You've raced before, but you've never been in a chase like Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. This time, you can experience both the thrill of the chase and the rush of the escape all in one day as you get behind the wheel as both a cop and a law-breaking racer. All your races can be real-life competitions when you connect with your friends for online multiplayer action and compare performance and stats to up the stakes. Who will come out on top? In this Hot Pursuit, you have to prove you have the ability, guts and the Need for Speed.

Pretty Good - wish there was spit screen
on May 15, 2011
Posted by: SnareDrummer1227

I am not a huge racing fan but enjoy one once and awhile. I decided on this over Gran Turismo 5 because I liked the cops chasing part/running from the cops. I am not that good though so it is kinda tough which is why I put difficulty at 5 - excellent. More I meant that it was a tough game to win races. Unfortunately it doesnt have spit screen which makes no sense to me. That would be so much fun to chase your friends/vice versa. I wish it was just a little bit more like Burnout Paradise... with the interactive free roam instead of just driving around bored to death...
I would recommend this to a friend ONLY if you are an avid racing fan... or if you love cop chases
What's great about it: Decent game, graphics
What's not so great: no spit screen, really hard
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best Madden in a long time!

I have played Madden since Madden 2005. This is by far the best one I have ever played. I love the game. Some people that are more hardcore/experienced (like I am) didn't like the play calling how it could automatically choose your play. I however thought it was ok. I think that when I get to the line of scrimmage I will use hot route, or audible. If not I will make something happen. If it is a running play right up the middle only about 1/2 the time do I do that. (I will cut back and run to the outside) Or if it is a pass and the receiver goes out 10 yards and slants I dont stand in the pocket and do that, I run around and wait for someone to get open. I win by making things happen (kinda like Brett Favre) not by doing everything exactly how the play says so...
My favorite part if Franchise. I am a football fanatic so sure, I would like to see improvements but this is the best part. So much fun to build my own team.
GO PACKERS! SUPER BOWL XLV CHAMPS!
What's great about it: BEST YET!
What's not so great: people that say it sucks lol

Unsure but glad I picked it up

I had the first Skate and I didn't like it at all. I got confused and couldnt figure it out. It seemed like one just big free roam in a city. I took it back. Skate 2... didnt look at. Skate 3 - Friends said it was great and it looked good. I wasnt sure if I wanted it or not but I did get it and im glad i made that decision! I love the game and at the time I got it I understood the way the map (i guess you would call it that) worked. It was so much easier to complete missions/do tricks or compete in events. It is a lot of fun if you are the casual free roamer or the competition/tricks person.
What's great about it: Lots of fun
I would recommend this to a friend!

SynopsisYou've received your assignment, hustled into a helicopter and skillfully maneuvered into the murky abyss of a mysterious land — with one deadly mission on your mind. You slip and sneak through dangerous territory. You spot an enemy in the distance and raise your rifle as you aim with precision. With a nearly silent pop, he drops lifelessly from view, as you press on, planting explosives to carve your way through secured fortresses, removing classified information and leaving only a trail of smoke in your wake. Welcome to a new kind of war. Tomorrow, the government will deny that your operation ever occurred. Your location will be obscured. Your alibi will be written. The war will be erased from history. But today, you bask in the glory of a perfect kill.Call of Duty: Black Ops is the latest installment in the Call of Duty franchise and the follow-up to last year's blockbuster Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The Cold War has ended — or at least, it appears that it has. You are one of the few to know the secrets of the deadly conflicts that persist and to complete the classified operations that quietly protect the nation. You are Black Ops. Descend into the explosive combat with all-new force and all-new technologies to destroy the enemy, including new Killstreaks like Napalm Strikes, a remote-controlled explosive device and controllable helicopters. A deadlier mission than ever requires the most intensive Combat Training yet — hone your tactics offline against A.I. bots in both Free-For-All and Team Deathmatch modes and earn COD Points to purchase equipment, attachments, perks and new customization options. Further test your nerves and weapon skills in point-gambling Wager Matches, and celebrate each epic kill in Theater Mode. You are being summoned — do you have the courage to answer a grave new Call of Duty?

Bad? Not at all!

Everyone says this game sucks compared to mw2. Well mw2 is MODERN WARFARE (hints the name). Black Ops is historic! Also I hear "it is great on 360 but sucks on ps3". ARE YOU KIDDING ME!??!!? My friend had it on xbox but got hacked he had to restart so many times online. (he now has it on ps3 and has no troubles) anyway It's amazing on ps3. I love this game. The graphics are great, and I like how you buy things with cod points. At first I thought it was dumb but I actually really like it. If your parents say "1 fps only" this would be a good choice.
What's great about it: SO MUCH FUN
What's not so great: nothing that I can think of
I would recommend this to a friend!
