Technology amazes me

I remember when my dad bought our first PC and it had a 200 megabyte harddrive. Now you can get a terabyte and it's tiny as heck. Anyway, I'm buying this cos' I had a 1TB larger sized (physically) Seagate that failed, and need some more space again. I still have a 500 gig passport that's going strong, although I don't use it constantly. I guess it's always good to back things up, but I never do. Now I don't have an excuse, but I probably still won't. Oh well. It's all ones and zeros.

One of the greatest albums of all time

Carly Rae has has left her previous self in the dust, but somehow it's gone unnoticed. "Call Me Maybe" was a great tune, but she has gone and made some of the best 80's synthpop/funk/chillwave music, a sound that is really popular right now with HAIM, Tegan and Sara, and Taylor Swift among the people vibing on in. I'd say 'emotion' is far better than 1989, and as good or better than 'days are gone', and gives 'heartthrob' a run for its money. There's even a track on here that recalls to me 'mr telephone man' by new edition. This should have won something, or at least been more popular. But to those who discover it, it's a real gem.

The price is right

It gets the job done, although the mechanism that covers and uncovers the plug is pretty much terrible, so if that is a feature you are looking forward to, be warned. Also, it is pretty much impossible to open the packaging without scissors, which is a pain. The cheap price makes up for all this I would say tho.

Great if you have never played Far Cry 4
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: izmo

I couldn't help but compare this game to Far Cry 4, a game which is similar, but superior in almost every way. Most of the tasks in Just Cause 3 involve blowing up everything in a base or town. The game has you do this dozens of times and it becomes extremely monotonous. I recall having a much more fulfilling time with Far Cry 4, which you should probably play instead of this game.

Overlooked sci-fi gem
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: izmo

This movie actually makes for a great companion to Interstellar. The subject matter is very related, but with a lighter take. Ultimately, they are different means to a similar end. I was disappointed to see that this movie didn't do well at the box office. It was a risk that didn't pay off, but I hope that filmmaker's continue to take chances on movies like this.

There are a few important things I need to say before you crack into my insanely sweet game. (You might want to sit down for this!). I'm a mercenary with an accelerated healing factor. I've been described as unstable, which is just plain coo-coo. (Wait, do sane people say coo-coo?) Be prepared for just about anything. (Holla!)

Game Of The Year for every year ever
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: izmo
from ct
Forget The Witcher 3 or Bloodborne, this title was far more satisfying to me than either of those critically acclaimed releases. I think most people will overlook this, while it may not that some more sophisticated gamers may crave. This is a game making fun of games having a fun time doing that. You get two trophies right off the bat in the first 10 seconds of the game, without doing anything, and Deadpool comments, "oh, it's one of those games".

Same old GTA, but that's not a bad thing
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: izmo
from ct
This is far less innovative than popular opinion on this game may suggest. This is the same old GTA that has been being released since GTA 3 in 1999, the only thing that has changed is the scope and level of detail which have both become incredibly rich. If you're a fan of the series and want more, certainly go on this with this. But if previous installments weren't for you, this version isn't going to win you over. That said, for those uninitiated this is a perfect place to start, and maybe it's not even necessary to look back at the old games unless you're really curious.
I previously played this for PS3, but wanted to check out the PS4 version, having read that Cara Delevingne had returned to record a bit more for her in-game radio station, Non-Stop Pop.

Decent hack-n-slash game
on June 9, 2015
Posted by: izmo
from ct
I don't especially get the hype. The main distinguishing characteristic of this game is that it's very hard for casual gamers. Beyond that I enjoyed games like Lollipop Chainsaw, Remember Me, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, and Wet much more than this game. While some people love a challenge, I hate a challenge, thus I just see this game as average, but for some reason I've sunk 50 hours into it so far. I completed the game at 43 hours, but it started over again.

Slow and atmospheric, yet very effective
on January 10, 2015
Posted by: izmo

This set comes with a BluRay disc and DVD disc. Rob Zombie's most recent film is shot beautifully. While it's been criticized for being too slow, this was a conscious stylistic choice and lets the viewer soak up the atmosphere. Some say the movie makes no sense, I can't argue with them there, except that for me it's more about what a movie makes you feel than what sense can be made out of it.

Decent but nothing special
on January 10, 2015
Posted by: izmo

This game is a decent retread of a lot of different survival horror games. However, it adds nothing new or special. Fans who've already played recent and classic survival horror games are better off waiting for this to go to the bargain bin. Games such as Deadly Premonition and even Murdered: Soul Suspect have recently had more to add to the survival horror genre. This game is a mashup of games including Resident Evil 4/5 and Silent Hill. If your hungry for more of the same it's decent enough. Just don't expect to be wowed. If you like Debussy's, 'Clair de Lune'' you get to hear it every 15 minutes, this game is for you.
