Los Santos: a sprawling sun-soaked metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets and fading celebrities, once the envy of the Western world, now struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap reality TV. Amidst the turmoil, three very different criminals plot their own chances of survival and success: Franklin, a former street gangster, now looking for real opportunities and serious money; Michael, a professional ex-con whose retirement is a lot less rosy than he hoped it would be; and Trevor, a violent maniac driven by the chance of a cheap high and the next big score. Running out of options, the crew risks everything in a series of daring and dangerous heists that could set them up for life.Grand Theft Auto V is the largest and most ambitious game Rockstar Games has yet created and takes full advantage of every ounce of processing power available in the current generation of consoles. In order to provide the best possible experience for such a massive and detailed world, the game will have installation requirements on the PlayStation 3 system. Grand Theft Auto V ships on one disc and will install content as soon as you insert the game. The install is roughly 8GB, and players will be able to play as soon as the install is complete.

This is by far the masterpiece of the GTA series. Personally this is the first one that I actually finished, main story line wise, and I intend on finishing all side missions as well. The other games were fun but I thought some stuff got a little repetitive and some of the storylines didn't hold my interest. GTA5 is awesome! It kept me wanting to play it every chance I got. The characters are very interesting and the way the game introduces them is pure story telling, in game, while you're drivin, on a mission. No spoilers! The abundance of things to do is just insane and you won't get bored of this game anytime soon. Then there's the online mode which is a whole other animal! Lotsa fun there too! Do not buy this game for a kid! Grown ups only! Everyone should know this by now....

Borderlands 2 furthers the distinct blending of First-Person Shooter and Role-Playing genres to create the true evolution of the Role-Playing Shooter.

Borderlands 2 features a new visually stunning array of procedurally generated guns, shields, grenades, artifacts, enemies and more. Choose one of the four new character classes to be taken through a carefully crafted and connected story to all-new and surprising environments across the living planet of Pandora. Make new friends, arm them to the teeth and fight alongside them on your relentless quest for revenge and redemption.

If you've played the first one and loved it, ya gotta check this sequel out. This time around it doesn't feel as desolate and sorta unoccupied as the original and that can be a good thing if it was an issue at all. So much to do and collect and even more loot. Haven't tried the online part but intend on doing so as soon as I finish it solo. The humor & dialogue in this game is as strong as ever! Overall great FPS/RPG

I'm a long time fan of Sonic Youth, my absolute favorite band ever, first hearing them in the late 80's and my all time favorite record of theirs is Sister. Until more than 20 years and a whole buncha beautiful records later, this record, the Eternal, completely consumed me. Listen to this record, it's good for ya, and sadly, it could very well be their last..........

Forget about those other music playing games where you're using an instrument shaped controller. THIS game has you playing you're real guitar and bass so it feels natural. The bulk of the game is playing a bunch of songs, either lined up in a "career" type mode, or choosing any song you like among more than fifty or so songs. The better you play the songs, the more you score. The notes thrown at you initially are just a few at a time and the better you play, the more notes are thrown at you till you've played all notes and essentially every note to an entire song! There's also a "challenge mode" that lets you practice different techniques that pertain to either guitar or bass. Nail those and ya get more points. And of course you can unlock stuff with all those points like pedals and amps, all giving you different sounds that you can customize in your set up!
Now the game and most reviewers boast the game teaches you how to play guitar. Well, I'll say that, if anything, it certainly shows you how to play certain songs. And if you can play those songs accurately, then I'd imagine ya learned how to play the guitar. For if not having learned how to play, then ya wouldn't have played the song. It also teaches newcomers techniques like bends, hammer ons n pull offs etc.
Seriously, some folks have gone out and bought a guitar just to play this game! And now they can kinda play a guitar!
Also, the 2 player mode is awesome because it allows your friend, spouse, significant other, kid or whatever to play along with you! And yes, one can play bass while the other plays guitar!

Safely secure you guitar or bass at your next show with this durable guitar stand with a tripod base.

Got this guitar stand at one of the Best Buy locations that's unfortunately closing the music department. It was on sale for dirt cheap but it does what it's supposed to: holds my guitar. Very pleased with it and I have no complaints about it.

I bought this for my wife who wanted to pick up and learn the bass guitar for fun. According to her and what I've seen and heard her play it teaches pretty effectively. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to learn bass guitar from home without having to actually hire an instructor.

These nickel-plated steel guitar strings feature extra core strength for durability and are compatible with most bass guitars with a 34" scale length for wide-ranging use.

I've been using these strings for over 20 years now and have tried others but always come back to GHS Boomers because they have serious durability and they sound great!

This Whirlpool everydrop 3 EDR3RXD1 ice and water filter reduces the presence of 66 different contaminants to protect your family from potentially harmful pharmaceuticals, pesticides and other elements. Wide-ranging compatibility ensures ease of use.
insignia model
Is there an insignia water filter that matches this whirlpool water filter?
I don't think there is one because as a Best Buy Elite member, I would get a 15 % discount on an Insignia water filter but I couldn't find one on my own. I also asked a Best Buy associate in store but all he could find was the Whirlpool model.
