Horrible Album!
on December 5, 2013
Posted by: jsmith71
from OKC
This is an awful release. If I could give it zero stars I would. I have enjoyed every Boston album until now. It's really Tom Sholtz playing every instrument and not doing a very good job at that. For someone who has created studio magic in the past, this is an abomination. It should have never been released. And definitely not as a Boston album. The drum machine used is so bad you can't make it through an entire song without wanting to rip your ears off. The album was terribly mixed and the songs are nowhere near the quality you would expect from a Boston release. It's a shame this is the best he could come up with in over ten years of writing this album. I think it's time to hang it up. I feel so cheated and ripped off.
What's great about it: Nothing!
What's not so great: Everything!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

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.

Nice system!

Overall, the PS4 is a great system. The New UI is nice, but very vanilla at this point. Needs a whole lot more apps. It does not support MP3s and DLNA, which was a real disappointment.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Overall, the Xbox One is a very nice system. Great graphics! The voice control is right on. It's still missing some things like mp3 and dlna support. I was disappointed that Microsoft removed the Media Center functionality. A dvr for tv recording would have been nice. I won't be getting rid of my Xbox 360 anytime soon, though.
