Another cog in the machine

Although I don't usually recommend buying a re release of a game, Gears of War Ultimate packs just enough content into it to make this an exception to my rule. With updated graphics "1080p" and 60 fps"multiplayer" along wth all the map packs ever made, it just might be worth picking up.

Replace your old coaxial cable because...it's old

Technology has not come so far on a coaxial cable to give you outstanding performance over the ones you had 15 years ago, but you might as well just replace it anyways. They don't cost very much and I sleep better at night lol.

Should I get the more expensive cable?

Verified Purchase:Yes
I just spent a couple grand on a new 4k TV and the salesperson told me I might as well buy the expensive monster cables to go with it. I got these instead. 1 month later I went back and purchased the $60 cables and, apart from a better quality cable, I didn't notice much of a difference in sound or picture quality. If you have the extra money, buy monster, but these cables will do just fine

Is it worth the money?

Posted by: newtechreview
from Colorado Springs, CO
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was told by the salesman that since I'm spending a couple of grand on a 4k TV I might as well buy these cables. Instead I went with the mid priced cables. 1 month later I went back and bought these. Although the quality of these cables are certainly higher than the cheaper ones, I didn't notice any major differences. If you have the money, why not. Other than that, you will be fine purchasing the less expensive hdmi cable

As far as the movie goes, it's alright. A cash grab for sure. One book that's stretched out to make 3 movies. If you can wait, the delux, definitive, all extras version will come out soon, followed by the limited edition box set of the trilogy, followed by the limited edition, 6 movie ultra collection...you get my point

Length is important

The battery life on the PS4 controller is atrocious. The charge cable that comes with the console forces me to, if I want to play and charge, sit a couple feet away from my system. Lame. But thanks to the insignia usb plug and play cord, I can sit up to 10 feet away and destroy noobs. Seriously, buy it already :)

When the success of your next quest hangs in the balance, or only one more hairpin turn stands between you and first place. When the clock is running out and your team must defend that flag at all costs, or the next combo attack could either be your greatest or your last.

The DualShock 4 is no different and brings an exciting array of additional features that are designed to usher your gaming experience into the next generation. With these additions, the DualShock 4 Controller becomes an extension of your brain, turning every move of your fingers into an accurate performance in the game ~ and in your hands, accurate performance can only mean victory.How gamers use a controller is being redefined right before our very eyes as the next generation of consoles also redefines many other aspects of gaming. The DualShock 4 controller is equipped with a multitouch touch pad on the face of the controller, opening up a new world of gameplay. The integrated light bar generates a rainbow of colors and works with your favorite games to enable innovative gaming experiences. The DualShock 4's share button lets you upload screenshots and video of epic gaming moments or live-stream sessions with your pals ~ with the press of a button.

The future of gaming is now, and the features of this controller live up to the hype.

The controller u luv, in white

Not much to say in this review...if you like the PS4, you will love the sleek white controller. I bought the extended warranty because my first controller started to wear out within a year. Since it only gets moderate use I figured this new controller will conk out on me in about the same time. Don't usually by warranties but with this product, it's worth it.

THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL recounts the adventures of GUSTAVE H., a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars; and ZERO MOUSTAFA, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting; a raging battle for an enormous family fortune; a desperate chase on motorcycles, trains, sleds, and skis - all against the backdrop of a suddenly and dramatically changing continent.

Bought this because of a dispute between a local station and directv. It works just fine but has kind of a flimsy design. I can't complain too much as it was inexpensive and allowed me to watch my programming.

Bought this because of a dispute between a local station and directv and it works great. It has a tuning knob to adjust how powerful you want it to work, low to max. A pointless option as who would put it on low, but an option none the less. It would get five stars if not for the old fashioned, telescoping rabbit ears.

1st floor apartment

I live on the first floor of my apartment. Which means that, my apartment is halfway underground. Will I be able to get good reception with this antenna?
You will get perfect reception. I have one connected to my tv in the basement of my house which is half way underground.

You do need a separate antenna for each television as this is not a whole home system.
