Knocked up is a great movie. You will not stop laughing as it is funny from start to finish. This version of the movie contains some extra laughs. If you haven't seen this movie yet, you need to. It will not be a waste of your time at all. Highly recommend this to anyone.

Modern video-game players depend on memory units. Games have become too advanced and time-consuming to simply plug in, play and walk away. You need a reliable unit with plenty of space that will hold all of the information you depend on.The Xbox 360 Memory Unit takes your games everywhere you need to be. With 64MB of memory, you'll have the space you need for game content and more. It takes the place of the hard drive and allows you to play on Xbox Live and save game progress. A bonus carrying case attaches to a key chain for extreme portability. Hang on to your information. Get a memory unit for your Xbox 360.29.99

Great Idea

Most people feel that because the Xbox 360 has a removable hard drive that the memory card system was no longer useful. However if you are concerned about limited content the memory card can be taken to your local mall or game store, and you can download items that are not available on live to your memory card by plugging the memory card into the stores Xbox 360 Kiosk. Also this acts as a great way to carry game saves and profiles to your friends house without having to change hard drives. Very useful if you are interested in the content from stores as I see this as this products main use. Also helpful if you want to move small saves from place to place.
What's great about it: Very Useful
What's not so great: Small Storage Size

Great Follow-Up To The First Game
on October 2, 2007

GRAW 2 as it's popularly called is a great follow-up to the first game. All in all it is better than the first game in most every aspect. The campaign mode is rather short and I finished it in one day of playing it straight through. However, the campaign itself is very good and keeps you interested enough that you want to play it all day. GRAW 2's main feature is it's multi-player on Xbox Live. There are great online features on this game that include a ranking system and awesome maps. Also most of the favorite maps from the original game are available on Xbox live for download for free at this point. This game is also always graphically stunning and very realistic. For those who like a realistic shooter where the people you shoot die after they are shot once this game is true to that idea. The first game in this series and this one as well are must haves for someone with an Xbox 360. Also try Rainbow Six Vegas if you would like to shoot up Las Vegas.
What's great about it: Great Online Play
What's not so great: Short Campaign Mode

Great Game

This is one of the first must have games for fans of the first person shooter genre on the Xbox 360. This game has some of the best graphics on the Xbox 360 so far. GOW also has a very good campaign mode that keeps you playing. Also the level of difficulty make it a challenging game for any level of gamer. The game is not a run and gun type shooter, and uses a very well done cover system so that you can hide in and out of cover. The game also does not utilize any jumping. This game is also around ten hours of campaign game-play. For those who are looking for a very dark and gory FPS that supports multi-player this is one of the best yet on the Xbox 360.
What's great about it: Campaign mode, Graphics are some of the best yet on Xbox 360
What's not so great: The multiplayer is good, but not the best. AI friends not the brightest crayons in the box.
I would recommend this to a friend!

can i get the internet on the xbox 360 with a wireless router

If you mean can you connect to the internet with the Xbox 360 with a wireless router yes you can. You can either hard wire with an ethernet wire that connects to your router and then to the back of your xbox. Or you can buy the microsoft wireless adapter that will pick up your wireless routers signal. This is typically a 100.00 item but can be purchased in some places for much less. If you are asking can you use the 360 as a internet browser it is the only console that does not have one.

My Playstation 3 is freezing on me.

I just got my playstation 3 for x-mas and if i play more than 1 game of Madden 09 in a row it freezes at the begining of the second game in the screen where u make your play choices. Is this a problem with my system or the game?
This can be both the system or the game. I would attempt to borrow someone elses Madden and see if that disc is working.

If you have any other games are they also doing this? If they are then it's more likely the PS3 and not your game. If your other games do this then I would call Sony and report the problem to them. You may need to send your PS3 in for repair. The majority reason the PS3 freezes is it's too hot. If your PS3 out in the open and able to breathe? Or is it enclosed in a entertainment center? If it's a 60 GB version there has been some minimal reports of failures regarding freezing as the first sign.

If none of your other games are doing this then your game may be the problem. Is the game updated or are you canceling the updates and just playing? If you borrow someone elses Madden 09 and it works then it's your disc. Try calling EA or returning it. Unfortunately you are likely not going to get much help if it's the disc. EA may send you another one. Good luck with that.

A side note is that EA games especially Madden has been released with a lot of flaws including ones that made the games unplayable. I would search the internet for information regarding this.

ps3 and wii

I love to buy a ps3 before that i want to make sure that I can play tennis on ps3 like I do on my wii using the wii remote like tennis racket??
The PS3 does have motion sensing controllers. However, they do not use them in the same way as the Nintendo Wii does. So you will not be able to play tennis on the PS3 like you do on the Wii.

wireless controllers

does the wireless controller have to be pointed directly at the console like an IR remote? or can it be used with console in an open front stereo rack that is not infront of tv but on adjacent wall. No walls in between but console would be off to the side in the stereo rack facing perpendicular to tv.
The PS3 uses blue tooth in it's wireless controllers which do not need to be directly pointed at the system in order to work. Therefore, you should be able to place the PS3 where you want and still have it work.

The only problem I could see is if you had the PS3 extremely far away.
