I am a huge fan of the halo series and RTS games. I thoroughly enjoyed halo wars 1 and i was very excited to give the new one a try. I have completed the campaign and it wasn't anything special but definitely worth playing. The multiplayer is the bread winner for this game. Playing with friends and trying different strategies has been a blast. The blitz game type is super fast paced and gives you an incentive to keep on playing to unlock new card packs. The graphics and overall gameplay is stellar. Words can't describe how much fun the game is to play. The ultimate edition is a great bargain since it comes with the season pass and loads of extras that will be released in the future. I highly recommend it.

Great screen protector, but a little small

This glass protector works great. I have a carbon fiber case from simply carbon fiber and this glass protector gives that extra piece of mind. The glass works great and I haven't noticed a difference in touch screen response from the original iPhone screen. However, the protector is a little small and doesn't cover the entire phone screen. I am horrible at applying these screens so I paid geek squad 8 bucks to install it for me. There are a few bubbles on the edges but nothing major. If you are looking for a great screen protector, I definitely recommend the glass protector from Zagg!

This is the 5th iPhone I have owned and the first "plus" model. Quite honestly, I really wish I would have switched to the plus model sooner! With the iPhone 7, the plus model has a better camera and battery (the reasons why I switched to the plus). I love how sleek the new iPhone 7 Plus is. I was worried about how the plus would fit in my pocket, but it honestly still fits because it is so thin. Having a bigger screen just makes everything you do on your phone better! A lot of the features of the phone are hard to explain until you have experienced them yourself. The new home button provides great feedback and the fingerprint scanner is very fast, the camera is absolutely incredible, the graphics are stunning, the upgraded speakers are way louder and provide much better sound quality, and the processor is extremely fast. All of these features coexist with a super long lasting battery. I upgraded from the iPhone 6s and I am honestly blown away by the performance and feature upgrades the iPhone 7 Plus has provided. Also, it's water resistant!! But if you are in the market for a new smartphone, I found your next purchase!

No question, the best radar detector on the market
on December 5, 2016
Posted by: bigtman
from Bloomington, Indiana
Where to begin? Quite honestly, this is the best radar detector out there. I conducted extensive research before making the investment of buying a detector. Pretty much anonymously all of the sources confirmed that the Escort Max 360 is indeed the best radar detector on the market. The Escort Live app on my iPhone made the customization process extremely easy to setup my Max 360 the way I liked it. Once it was all dialed in, this detector has blown me away. My dad owns the Escort 9500ix detector (which is a fantastic detector) but my max 360 blows it away. The range is effective to about 3 miles out and is incredibly accurate, the notification noises are effective but not annoying, the GPS filter works extremely well for locking out non-threats, and the Escort live app works great for notifying a threat before the radar is in range. I also love that there are updates available from Escort. I immediately updated my detector and the directional arrows are very very responsive. I agree that $650 is a pretty steep investment for a detector, but you can't put a value on piece of mind. When driving with a detector, I personally find myself more aware to what is going on ahead of me instead of searching in constant paranoia for a possible patrolman. While I do not drive at concerning speeds, It is nice knowing I can prevent a speeding ticket and insurance rate hikes by having this detector mounted (with a fantastic and secure magnetic mount by the way) I am free to focus on the actual driving experience. If you drive a car and do not live in the two restricted areas (i want to say Virginia and Washington D.C.) where detectors are illegal, buy the Escort Max 360!!

Tom Clancy's The Division is a revolutionary next-gen experience that brings the RPG into a modern military setting for the first time. In the wake of a devastating pandemic that sweeps through New York City, basic services fail one by one, and without access to food or water, the city quickly descends into chaos. As an agent of The Division, you'll specialize, modify, and level up your gear, weapons, and skills to take back New York on your own terms.

This game is absolutely fantastic! The graphics are stellar, gameplay is very addicting, and the customization is vast. Tom Clancy's new shooter is all around impressive. The firefights are fast paced and comfortably challenging, The customization between upgrading your character's gear, weapons, skills, perks, your base of operation's security, medical, and tech wings definitely keep you wanting to play more. I have played this game pretty hard for a week and I am extremely hooked, definitely recommend buying it!

Absolutely love this game. There are so many game modes that keep you entertained. I would only get this game if you love multiplayer because it is definitely multiplayer focused. But the graphics are absolutely stunning and there are so many collectables and unlocks that keep you wanting to play more. The deluxe addition is definitely worth the extra money because you unlock a blaster that is extremely powerful and many more. If you are a fan of starwars or just all out war mayhem, battlefront is a perfect fit!

Protect your Apple iPhone 6 with this LifeProof nuud 77-50306 hard case, which features a dirt-, drop-, snow- and waterproof design for reliable defense against damage. Screenless technology lets you directly touch your phone's display.

I use this case for my new iPhone 6s and i absolutely love it. Very tight fit on your phone reduces the bulkiness that seems popular with most phone cases. It still has access to all of the features of your phone even though it is water proof. The case is extremely durable as it can withstand drops, snow, dust, and water. The back of it is clear and looks fantastic with the new iPhones. Having this case on your phone really creates confidence when walking around with your phone. The price is a little steep but for the value that you get, it is totally worth it. It is also fantastic assurance for not breaking your new phone.

The Greatest Racing Game of all Time.

Wow.. Is all i have to say. I have been a huge fan of racing games since i was a kid and forza motorsport 6 blew me away. The first thing i noticed was the realism of the game. On my HDTV, Bose Surround Sound, and Monster Cable HDMI setup this game is absolutely breathtaking. It is so realistic that my friends actually laugh when they watch me play because it is so impressive. Playing this game on a non-HDTV would be like having a BMW without the engine, it's a must. The career mode is fantastic. There are many different history races that teach you about racing throughout the years that really kept me engaged. I have usually had problems hitting a "burned out" mentality while playing racing games for awhile because they get so repetitive. With the new Forza, there are sooo many different aspects to the racing and extra features that i don't see that happening. There is also a HUGE variety of vehicles. I just with EA would let them use the rights to add Porsche into these games. As a huge racing game and just car fan in genera, the new Forza appeals to both audiences alike. What an INCREDIBLE game!

This is literally an all in one speaker system. It seriously took me less than 5 minutes to setup the sound system. It also fits perfectly under my TV. The sound is absolutely incredible. I've had friends listen to it and could've sworn i had speakers hidden around my room. The sounds is super clear as well. I have watched movies, played video games, and watched sporting events with it and they all were most definitely enhanced. It is a little pricey, but totally worth every penny. Save yourself the hassle of having to setup a ton of speakers and buy this beast. You will not regret it.

Laser Function... Going to guess this detector only detects Laser Function once a laser device/gun is activated. Hence you are caught unless a vehicle in front of you gets laser zapped and the detector detects that activity. Is this a correct assumption?
Yes. Works very well on interstates.

I have a Rocky Mountain Radar RMR-8RDS It is getting older. It is hard wired front & rear I have been protected & no tickets in almost 3 years. It offers rear protection from Radar also. Will this Escort max 360 offer rear protection & what range?
Hence the 360 name, it offers 360 protection. I have picked up radar about 3-4 miles out in all directions. Absolutely incredible technology.

How can it be mounted and where?
It comes with an incredible windshield mount and that works very well! I mounted it on my windshield just above my car's navigation system. You can also buy a kit to wire the car internally.

iPhone 6 isn't just bigger — it's better in every way. Larger yet thinner. More powerful, yet power efficient. It's a new generation of iPhone.
DORS IT COME WITH ANTIVIRUS
It has a firewall feature. So yes. Apple Products are notorious for being Virus Free.

Is there a new version of the Wii coming out?
The Wii U is the new next generation console. It's Nintendo's equivalent of the Xbox One and PS4. I personally recommend the Xbox One out of the three.

My kids have several game disc with a scratch in the same location and they think the machine is causing it. Is that possible?
Possibly, i do know if the console is moved while a disc is playing it can scratch and damage the disc. I personally downloaded the games to my hard rive and that way the disc doesn't actually run while the game is being played to prevent the disc from scratching. Hope that helps!
