one of the better Adam Sandler movies
on May 20, 2013
Posted by: buddster

I think a lot of Adam Sandler movies are childish and immature. But this is one of the better ones to watch and has more broad appeal. Has a bunch of his 90's SNL co-stars as well, which is a bit nostalgic for me.
The price of the DVD is pretty low, around $5 when on sale.There aren't too many special features though, only 3 short featurettes that are around 5 minutes each. The bluray has more special features like deleted scenes, audio commentary, and more featurettes so if you really liked the movie, it's better to get the bluray.
My Best Buy number: 0556042431
What's great about it: low price for DVD
What's not so great: not too many special features
I would recommend this to a friend!

not the fastest card, but reliable

I use it with:Point and shoot camera
I only use this card in a point and shoot camera so I don't have a need for fast speeds and class 6 is good enough. If you have a DLSR or shooting video with certain camcorders, you might need a faster card. But this PNY class 6 card is good enough if you don't have a need for a high speed card, and it's been reliable so far. Haven't had any data corruptions issues yet.
However, most SD cards out there are now a minimum of class 10 so my next SD card will most likely be a class 10. When I bought this class 6 card, it was slightly cheaper on sale than the same PNY class 10 card.

What's great about it: PNY is reliable brand
What's not so great: only class 6 card

pre-owned PS3 disc was damaged?
on April 19, 2013
Posted by: buddster

I bought the pre-owned MW3 for PS3, and it was less than half the price of a new version so thought I was getting a good deal.
However, the game keeps freezing up on me, even on the opening sequence before playing the game. And I am just trying to play the campaign not multi-player.
I'm not sure if the disc itself is damaged. It looked spotless without any scratches, but I know that they resurface the discs so not sure if the resurfacing caused any damage.
I haven't had this problem with any other PS3 games, but I've never bought a pre-owned disc so this is my first experience with trying to play one. And not a good experience.
The game is basically unusable to me, and since BB instituted a 14 day return policy, it's too late for me to return it or to try to get a replacement pre-owned disc.

What's great about it: the price is cheaper than buying a new version
What's not so great: i think the PS3 disc was damaged

great visuals, especially if you have a 3D tv

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have a 3D tv, this is the type of bluray to get as it is demo worthy on the level of the 3D version of Avatar. The visual and sound effects are amazing.
Story in the movie is simple with not much of a plot, but it's still good. It's basically about a tale of survival.
Lots of solid extras too to learn more on how the movie was made. The extra are not fluff material and provide fairly in depth background on the movie.
The Best Buy exclusive version of the 3D bluray comes with a $10 e-book certificate (basically a $10 Visa e-voucher) and an $8 coupon off any Fox blu-ray. The regular 3D bluray doesn't come with the $10 e-book certificate (not sure about the $8 coupon). The e-book certificate expires on 7/31/13, and the $8 coupon expires on 5/31/13.
