An Honest Review
on November 21, 2014
Posted by: Ponskippa
from san antonio,tx
I'll start by saying that I just switched back to iOS from and Android phone. A Nexus 5 for that matter. Yes this phone (on paper) is under spec'd , compared to android phones. I can confirm that iOS still lags behind Android in my opinion when it comes to usability and customization. But what this phone does right is keep the system clean and free of bloatware. I used to like my stock android phone, receiving timely updates, free of carrier and manufacture bloatware. This year's Nexus 6 is almost 6 inches big! So i switched back to iPhone after a 3 year hiatus. I do miss some of the features of Android, but what iOS brings to the table makes up for the lack of. Even though the screen has a weird 750p resolution, at 4.7" it looks fine, the battery lasts me a good 10-12 hours before needing to plug in for a little bit of juice. iMessage is a plus, the Camera works great, a good camera on a mobile device is always a plus for me. Apple's ecosystem is top notch and makes up for the things it lacks. i can see my self flip flopping between platforms lol. I like them both, we'll see what Samsung or Google has up its sleeve next time around

Fun Game
on March 26, 2014
Posted by: Ponskippa
I'm not sure why some critics are giving low ratings to this game. Maybe because I never really played the first two games On the PS3. This game is fun, looks gorgeous and has me hooked. I'm having so much fun destroying D.U.P. outposts! Haha. Anyway the story is good, difficulty is just right. For me anyway. I'd say this is a must have for your PS4 library.

Really liking it
on March 16, 2014
Posted by: Ponskippa
I decided to purchase this for my girlfriend so we could play each other on Mario kart lol, also she wanted something to play when she gets bored. I kept it at home so I could set it up for her and started playing it. Let me say I have a 3DS XL. The 2DS fits perfectly in my hands. I'm 6' tall. I have large hands. A regular 3ds didn't work for me, a 3ds xl fits alright, although my hands do tire after a while. Especially with games that need the triggers pressed. The 2DS form factor works for people with big hands, probably small hands alike. Its thicker uptop,rests nicely against your palms and the triggers curve nicely into your index fingers!I want to add that the mono speaker is not that big a deal, it sounds fine. Its also quite loud for its size. The buttons on the system are "spongy" but not in a bad way. I must say, I Love this system. I might try to convince my gf to let me keep it and use my XL instead :D if you have been wanting a gameboy, I recommend this over the 3DS, unless you want the 3D feature. The 3DS XL is also pretty awesome, but for the money. The 2DS is a great deal. I bet we will see a 2DS XL sometime in the future.

great set of Bluetooth buds

I picked these up the other day to use while working and exercising. They pair very nicely with my android phone. They sound very nice, I am pretty picky with headphones and I enjoy the sound from these. Bass is nice and deep, mids are perfect and the highs are not overly trebly. Did not need to use equalizer on my music settings. I'd say they almost sound as good as my pair of skullcandy titans.
The first pair I bought were defective and only worked from the left side, best buy exchanged them and my second pair works excellent. I would definitely recommend purchasing the 2 year protection for these headphones. They are keepers!

It's Saturday. You've donned your uniform and laced up your cleats. You can hear the roar of the crowd, the stomping of feet. They're chanting your name. As you burst out onto the field, adrenaline floods your veins and you know you're ready to dominate. Within minutes of kickoff, you have control of the ball. You deftly maneuver past one defender, block and practically twirl around another. The pressure is intense and you know you'll only have one brief second of opportunity to get off the shot and score the first goal. You tap the ball to the perfect distance from you, so you can adjust your pace to take the shot. With one broad step, you wind back your leg and extend in a perfect arch that sends the ball hurtling through the air towards the net. As the crowd erupts in deafening cheers, you can't hold back the little smirk of satisfaction. Yeah, you got this.The authenticity and reality-based physics of FIFA 14 give you the freedom to use your skills — if you have them — to achieve victory with officially licensed clubs and leagues and more than 15,000 players. Pure Shot technology rewards you for achieving the perfect combination of timing, anticipation and positioning to score against professional defenders. Your players will adjust their stride and pace as they position themselves to approach the ball from the ideal angle. However, players may take off-balanced or rushed shots that impact the accuracy and strength of their attempts. With Real Ball Physics, the ball behaves as it would in real life. Strike the ball with force, launch swerving shots, drill low-rising shots or curl the ball around opponents, all with authentic turbulence. Since ball possession determines the tempo of the entire game, FIFA 14 features Protect the Ball, which enables players to fend off and block opponents with their bodies to maintain possession until a pass can be made. Sprint Dribble Turns let you utilize quick cuts to beat defenders in one-on-one competition while sprinting, while Variable Dribble Touches test your dribbling-touch skills. Improved teammate intelligence lets you rely on defenders to provide support and attackers to outsmart their opponents. As any fan knows, what happens on the pitch is half the battle. A new scouting hub in Career Mode delivers easy navigation and live scouting reports as you develop and refine your scouting network to unearth the players who will bolster your squad. From kickoff in the season opener to the winning goal of the championship game, FIFA 14 provides the authenticity that puts you on the pitch and lets you become a triumphant and victorious athlete.

I wanted to love it

from san antonio,tx
Before I start I just want to say that i have played every FIFA game since FIFA 10 on playstation. So i was excited to play FIFA 14 on a next gen console. Those of you who played FIFA 11-12-13 will understand where i am coming from. Visually this game is amazing. Player animations, the crowd, ambience, all awesome. But the gameplay? HORRIBLE !
I won't rant and rumble too much, but the controls are sooo clunky. It feels like playing a PS1 game on the first dualshock control. Players make big circles when changing direction. And the physics and passing? EVEN WORSE! Players lose the ball very easily, even when dribbling alone. Defenders can hang onto your shoulder for 1/4 of the pitch and the ref's will not call anything. This is the worst FIFA i have played in the last 5 years. I traded it in after a month of trying to make the best of it. If you are new to the series, you might actually enjoy this game. If you are a long time FIFA player, STAY AWAY. save your $60 and get something else.

Awesome Monitor
on December 17, 2013
Posted by: Ponskippa
I picked up this monitor for $169 today. I initially went in to the store looking for a TV for my PS4. I decided to get this monitor since I also have my PC hooked up to it. The ps4 automatically detected the monitor with no problems and it looks gorgeous. The colors are saturated just enough and the contrast is perfect. No input lag while playing my PS4 on or offline. My PC isn't the best spec wise but it looks great on this monitor also. If you are on a budget and want a great gaming monitor, pick this up. You won't regret it.

Best 7" Tablet on the Market
on July 31, 2013
Posted by: Ponskippa
from Texas
This tablet is a must buy if you are searching for a sub $300 tablet. I looked at every other tablet in the same price range and i think this is the best value. It has stock Android, meaning you'll receive all the updates as soon as Google pushes them out. No bloatware that other manufactures tend to install onto Android tablets. Some people complain about the "boring" interface, well you can customize it anyway you want with themes and launchers that you can install from the google play store. The construction of this tablet is very solid (for being plastic and rubber?)
No light leaks on my lcd screen, buttons everything feels very sturdy.
I thought about getting the 32gb version but since google lets you store almost anything on their cloud, you really don't need anything more than 16gb of storage unless you are going to be installing some large apps.
OHHHH i almost forgot, this tablet now has dual speakers on the rear with virtual surround sound. They sound Great! i was worried that the sound would be muffled when i hold it in landscape mode with my hands. No problems, they sound loud and clear.
If you looking at this tablet, buy it already. you won't regret it
My Best Buy number: 2205567791
What's great about it: Crisp high resolution screen, dual speakers, form factor, very slim, 1080P!!!!!!
What's not so great: rear camera isn't the greatest

These headphones are solid. They sound great with music, movies and games. The "pulse" feature is pretty neat. It adds to the gaming experience while using a dual shock control. I was on the fence for a while for these cans, I finally grabbed them when gamers unlocked club gave 20% discount on them. I am really glad I got them, they rock!

This Miroir Full HD pico projector has HDMI and USB Type-C ports for secure connection to a variety of input devices.
 

What speakers go well with this??

If you want to keep things "portable" I would recommend using any portable speaker with an AUX input. most bluetooth speakers come with an AUX input. Get a 3.5mm aux cable and plug it into your speaker of choice!

Revel in immersive audio with this retro-style Ion Boombox Deluxe portable stereo. Dual full-range speakers deliver impressive sound reproduction, while Bluetooth technology, USB playback, an AM FM radio and a built-in cassette player offer vast entertainment options. This Ion Boombox Deluxe portable stereo comes with a long-lasting rechargeable battery for convenience.
 

Can you record on cassette tapes when playing from Bluetooth.

yes, But i believe it records with the built in microphone. So don't expect the best sound quality and it might pick up ambient sounds in the room during the recording.

Experience immersive Dolby Atmos sound through a single device with this Sony sound bar. It connects to your TV wirelessly or with an HDMI cable, and it pairs with Bluetooth devices for audio streaming. This Sony sound bar includes the Vertical Sound Engine, which eliminates the need for ceiling-mounted speakers.
 

I have this soundbar connected to the Sony 75 X850E TV using the HDMI ARC connection. There is a slight audio lag using the soundbar (occurs with HDMI or optical). The delay is small but definitely there, so this causes lip sync issues. Any suggestions?

you can try to adjust it by pressing the option button, then TV or HDMI (according to whichever you are experiencing lag) then press the up or down button press the center button to adjust. It can be difficult to get it perfect. I've tried myself and I just got it as close as I could

I recently purchased the HT-X9000F along with a 2018 TCL Series 6 TV. While it sounds great, is there any way to have its menu appear on my TCL 6 series? It's hard to know which mode I'm in or cycle through the settings without having them show up.

You have to connect the soundbar with an HDMI cable for the menu to appear on screen on your input of choice. If you have it connected with an optical cable it won't work. Also, you need to have it connected with HDMI as it is the only way to enable dolby atoms on supported titles.

I've got my Soundbar hooked up to my TCL 6 Series via HDMI to HDMI ARC, however, when I press the "Home" button on my Sony remote. It just mutes the sound and no menu comes up. Please help! Thanks.

maybe try resetting the sound bar? the manual shows you how to reset the system.
