This is how remakes should be done
on July 7, 2017
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
The original Crash Bandicoot games are great, but there were things about them (such as the terrible saving system in the first game) that just made the experience a pain.
These remakes are wonderful and fix some of the big issues I had with the originals, and the new graphics look marvelous. While some parts of the remakes are a bit easier, other parts are still pretty difficult. The trophy support is also nice.

One of the best JRPGs I have played in a long time
on April 30, 2017
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
Persona 5 is hands-down one of the best JRPGs I have played in a very long time. The story and characters are very engaging, the gameplay is fun, and there is so much polish. The game is very stylish, the soundtrack is great, and compared to previous games in the series, the only negative things I could even think of are nitpicks.
What will turn a lot of people off, however, is the amount of time needed to complete the game. Typical JRPGs usually take around 40-50 hours to beat the main story. Persona 5, on the other hand, took me over 100 hours to beat. But I had so much fun that I didn't even realize how much I was playing.

Fun multiplayer game for your new system
on April 30, 2017
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
This takes everything that was great about Mario Kart 8, includes all DLC, and adds various improvements such as new items, racers, game modes, and some not as noticeable changes such as the Ultra mini-turbo, which is a third, stronger boost attained by drifting.
In this version of the game, all characters and tracks are unlocked from the beginning, which is discouraging because I enjoy unlocking them. But it is still a fun multiplayer game to have for the Switch.

Great system, small library
on April 30, 2017
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Nintendo Switch is a great system overall. It has some hiccups that need to be addressed, but I am definitely looking forward to seeing its future. Right now there isn't a huge library, but if you get it, definitely look at the following: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and The Binding of Isaac Afterbirth +. I am excited for Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

Good, but not the experience I was wanting
on April 30, 2017
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'll start by saying that this game is good, but it just doesn't feel much like Zelda. While it was awesome in many ways, a lot of the things I play Zelda games for were let downs. It was still fun overall, and is a game that Nintendo Switch owners should play. But if this is the only game you want for the Switch, just play the Wii U version.

Awesome monitor for PC gaming

Prior to buying this monitor, I have never experienced anything higher than 60fps for gaming. Now I have experienced 144fps and it is awesome. The monitor looks great and has a knob on the back that makes navigating the menu really easy.

Must have if you own a 120 hz 4k tv
on February 20, 2017
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
Although it is a very expensive cable, it is very fast. I have a Vizio M43-C1 tv that is 4k 120hz and this cable allows me to achieve much better looking 4K than my previous cable at 60fps. It also allows me to achieve 1080p at 120fps with pc games using the 4k @ 60fps hdmi port.
Definitely a must have if you own a 4k or 120 hz tv.

Great game, both a remake and reboot
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
Fantastic game with great characters, gameplay, music, story, and graphics. Story is told from Captain Qwark's point of view so there are some differences. The game feels like both a remake and reboot of the original Ratchet and Clank, as the story is very similar but with differences, there are some of the same worlds but new ones too, as well as some of the same weapons and some that weren't in the original.

Nothing amazing, but still pure and fun nostalgia
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
World of Final Fantasy is a pretty fun game. I know the chibi art style is unattractive to some people, but it is still a pretty game. The best way to sum up the concept of World of Final Fantasy is by describing it as a cross between Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Pokemon, and Disney's Tsum-Tsum.
World of Final Fantasy takes place in a combined world of various Final Fantasy games, containing locations and characters from many games throughout the series, and awesome remixes of songs. The game features a very similar character art as Kingdom Hearts as well.
The battle system is a pretty standard turn based RPG like the classic final fantasy, but it also features the ability to capture monsters, transform between chibi and non-chibi characters, and stack with your monsters.
The story isn't anything to care much about, but the characters, music, and gameplay are what I enjoy about the game. The game can also drag on quite a bit sometimes.
If you love the Final Fantasy Series, definitely check it out. But if you don't care for the series, then you won't care for this game.

Great upgrade, even if you don't have 4K
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: Hoff
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was meaning to upgrade my PS4 hard drive for a while, so when I saw the PS4 Pro when it was announced, I decided I would do a full system upgrade instead of just upgrade the hard drive.
PS4 Pro has a larger hard drive, 4K support, HDR support (but so do other models), a better processor and more memory. Games on PS4 Pro will have more detailed scenery and some, such as Ni-Oh, will even have higher frame rates than on the original and slim PS4 models.
However, some games that are not optimized for the PS4 Pro yet, such as World of Final Fantasy, seem to look blurrier and more pixelated than on the Original and Slim models.
PS4 Pro is definitely a step up, so if you are just now getting a PS4, definitely get this model, especially if you can find a deal. However, it is nothing extremely groundbreaking, so if you already have a PS4, I'd say wait for a decent sale.

Does a HDMI Cable make a differences in the TV resolution yes or no

No, it does not change the resolution of the TV. However, it does make 4K look a little better, and allows for 120fps pc gaming if you use 1080p resolution.
