The PS4 is a graphical powerhouse, able to deliver massive game worlds with impressive clarity and detail. 8GB of RAM allows for serious multitasking potential, complementing the great apps and features that make up the PS4 experience.The PlayStation brand of consoles has an impressive history of delivering world-class exclusive games, and the trend is sure to continue with the PS4. The growing blockbuster catalog is backed by a library of free-to-play and indie games, giving you flexibility in how you pay and play.The PS4 also acts as a social hub, with several built-in features that take advantage of the social networks you're already using. The controller's Share button opens up a world of video sharing, with the option to stream your gameplay live or record it to edit and post later.PlayStation Vita owners will enjoy the connectivity that ties the two devices together, from Remote Play, which allows you to play your PS4 games on your Vita's screen over a local Wi-Fi network, to Cross-Buy, which allows you to purchase a game digitally only once and play it on both your PS4 and your Vita.All PS4 consoles will need a firmware update and must be connected to the Internet to complete the update. While your console will not always need to be connected to the Internet, a one-time connection is required for the update.Online multiplayer requires a paid PlayStation Plus membership. Some features require a broadband Internet connection; ISP fees apply.PS3 games, controllers and some accessories are not compatible with the PS4.

I loved this movie. Finally a totally scary haunting ghost story not clouded with a dumb story, bad acting and too much cgi. This movie is scary and very well made. A must see.
What's great about it: Story is haunting

Inaccurate, Inaccurate, Inaccurate & Inaccurate!!!

Age:35-44
Gender:Male
I was so excited to finally get my new Fitbit Flex. I set it up and charged the device and proudly wore it the next morning.
First thing I noticed it was terribly inaccurate with step counting. Somehow it logged a few hundred steps when I was driving. Second I noticed when I was walking while pushing my daughters stroller it wasn't logging anything. Also the calorie calculation is way off. It said I burned about 158 calories the first 5 minutes I was wearing it.
It's basically a laughable device that is beyond useless. It's supposed to track data that pushes you towards a specific fitness goal yet all the data is inaccurate. So why bother? Already returned mine.
My Best Buy number: 0739026227
What's great about it: Size
What's not so great: Horribly unreliable.

It's August 1951 and the invasion begins. North America's eastern coast is under attack, and the dangerous and deadly Chimeran have started their assault.

Featuring an all-new mission that parallels and complements the existing storyline, Resistance: Burning Skies places you in the role of Tom Riley as you fight to battle the Chimeran invasion on the East Coast. Built from the ground up for the PS Vita system, Burning Skies takes advantage of the Vita's powerful features, including the front and rear touch controls, 3G/Near support and Wi-Fi online play.

I am stunned at how fun this title is. For a handheld game it brings a console experience. I am on my second run of the campaign with new game +. The multiplayer has most of the bugs worked out. However matchmaking can be spotty. There is Team Deathmatch, Deathmatch and Survival. All fun modes. There are some new guns in the game as well as old favorites such as the Bullseye and Auger. You can also upgrade your weapons as well.
Overall I am having a blast with this game. I applaud this effort and look forward to more Resistance on the Vita. This is nothing like that trash that was on the PSP. I really hope people ignore any negative press on this game and give it a try. For Resistance fans it's a no brainer. Any fps fan would love this game as well.
FYI I found the normal mode to be pretty challenging but still workable. It was a great experience.
What's great about it: Super easy platinum trophy. Campaign is fun. Reminds me of original Resistance. Multiplayer when works is amazing.
What's not so great: Multiplayer can be spotty with matchmaking.

Man I love this game.
on March 18, 2012
Posted by: matrixixix
from Eastchester NY
Bought this game at launch and have been draining my battery daily on this. So much to do and they have daily challenges which are basically free missions everyday. Great fps. Some missions are stealth some are total elimination runs and so on. I'm a husband and a father so I don't always have time to fire up the home theater. This game fulfills all my fps needs for single player and online co-op. some reviewers were hard on this game but I haven't spoken to one gamer that's hated it. Totally amazing experience. FYI the trophies are sometimes challenging but still reachable. A platinum trophy can be attained with no problem.
What's great about it: Daily missions, co-op is amazingly smooth.

The ground shakes with rumbles from an explosion down the street. You hear disembodied shouts from your teammates. Bullets whiz by your helmet and explode on the wall behind you, sending chunks of concrete and rubble flying through the air. You're focused on your mission, but time seems to stop for a moment as you feel your weapon in your hand. Another bullet bursts against the wall, this time closer — and louder. That got your attention. There's no time for zoning out in the red zone. Meet back up with your team and make it off the Battlefield alive.Featuring the powerful Frostbite 2 engine, Battlefield 3 utilizes every ounce of power to provide the most immersive shooter experience you've ever known. Get ready to hold your ground on the front lines of a global conflict, and keep your finger on the trigger as the missions take you from city streets in New York and Paris to the relentless desert sands of Tehran. Take on the enemy by yourself in single player, or team up with a friend for intense co-op missions. Featuring the all-new Battlelog system, you can easily find your friends, socialize and track your progress. When your skills are battle-tested, load up for a 24-player online multiplayer mode, where you'll strap on the boots of a frontline infantry soldier and pilot powerful battle machines like Engineering EOD bots, tanks, jets and more. Fall in, Soldier — you're about to head out to the Battlefield once again.

I hate this game.

Posted by: matrixixix
from Eastchester NY
The graphics are over hyped. There are tons of poppy graphics and screen tears. The story stinks. The bugs are a plenty. Some checkpoints wouldnt even register. Had to restart the mission. There are almost no opportunities to battle in single player. It just seems like you are following these morons the whole time. The multiplayer is confusing and low grade. I will say the sound in this game is the best I have ever heard. But after that youre left with a pile of garbage.
What's great about it: Sound.
What's not so great: M pLayer, Story, Graphics

This is my first lens ever. I got it with my T3i Rebel. The level of quality and ease of use for an amateur is amazing. This lens has done nothing but make me want to buy more lenses from Canon for my new camera. I wish I can give more technical details but I am new to DSLR photography and just based on the basics I am blown away. I love the IS and AF on these lenses.

SynopsisAfter being entrusted with a F.E.A.R. (First Encounter Assault Recon) squad to stop a secret battalion of telepathically controlled supersoldiers, powerful telepath and genetically enhanced supersoldier Point Man thought he had to take the soldiers out through one lone commander. Much to Point Man's surprise, he learned during the mission that the commander was not working alone. The very people Point Man was commissioned to destroy were his telepathic, cannibalistic brother, Paxton Fettel, and his psychically gifted, psychotic mother Alma Wade, both super-enhanced by perverse paranormal experiments. Despite the pull of blood ties, Point Man and the F.E.A.R. team set off a destructive series of events that seemed to accomplish their goal of eliminating Alma and Paxton — at great cost to the city, its inhabitants and most of Point Man's squadmates. It is now evident that Alma's psychic influence has survived: she's pregnant with a new demon spawn and her paranormal power is growing as she attempts to ensure the survival of her twisted bloodline and reunite her family. Armacham research facility's security force remains violently focused on eliminating all evidence of the events in the city, and the remaining F.E.A.R. squad carries on the mission to stop Alma. Can Point Man actually win this fight — a fight against his own blood — or will he succumb to the twisted evil growing in a being he finds hard to call mother?F.E.A.R. 3 reaches new levels of terror with a chill-inducing script written by Steve Niles and cinematics developed with horror genius John Carpenter. This latest installment of the F.E.A.R. series incorporates characters and plotlines familiar to fans while adding fresh horror experiences and terrifying twists. Play in single player or co-op modes as Point Man, a genetically enhanced supersoldier, or play cooperatively as his conniving brother Paxton Fettel, whose incredible telekinetic power has given him life beyond the grave. Experience the thrill of divergent co-op play, which offers players distinctly different abilities affecting their own play as well as the experience of their co-op partner. The first-person shooter perspective and compelling narrative draw you into the plot and keep you enthralled as you experiment with the brothers' different abilities, advantages and improved cover system. Explore the world as either brother; just remember, some ties are hard to break. Will you make the right choice?

Complete Waste of Time
on August 28, 2011
Posted by: matrixixix
from Eastchester NY
What a horrible waste of a good idea. This game could have been great but it was plagued with muddy and faded graphics, horrible physics, bad AI and the worst grenade and gunfire effects I have ever seen. At the end of the game I felt like I totally wasted my time. I would have rather played a PS2 game instead. Trading it in and writing off this series. For a real gamer there are too many great games out to bother with this atrocity.
What's great about it: Failed execution of a great idea.
What's not so great: Everything. Total Wate of time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Anti-American Storyline. Do Not Buy!
By matrixixix from Eastchester NY
It's been revealed today that there is an option to play as the Taliban killing American Soldiers. This game has been banned on all US Military bases and all Gamestop stores on or near US Military bases. Unbelievable that such a legendary franchise would welcome itself back with garbage like this. Electronic Arts better recall this game and fix this or it will bomb.

I DO tend to get bent out of shape when a video game glorifies a group of people who flew planes into MY CITY and killed thousands of people that triggered a war that killed many more people and many innocent people on enemy soil. Odd that many of you people defend this.
