Came back strong after recall

The Nest protect is a great product that works well with the evolving Nest ecosystem. I do not have a Nest thermostat as of yet, but these were my first step in moving to that direction. I wanted a product that will have all my home automation in one easy to use app and I feel nest will be the way to go ( nest thermostats, nest protects and dropcams)
The nest protect was easy to install for any skill set and only required your iPhone, a screw driver, your homes wifi key and a ladder). Once you program the wifi information into the first device, the system Can copy that information to the other devices. From that point forward, it's adding the new backplate and wiring white to white and black to black.
The app is easy to read and the system will always remind you it's in good status whenever you turn off the house lights. If it's all clear, you will see the device illuminate green. I was interested in this product prior to the recall and I'm happy I waited. Not only do I believe it's now a safer product, but it's also 30.00 cheaper per unit!
Amy only compliant, is since my alarms are flush against the wall. The nighttime path feature is useless. I was hoping the motion tracking would be better to compensate for this installation type, however, it doesn't want to work. If you mount these on an angle or directly to the ceiling, I don't see that being an issue at all.
My Best Buy number: 397654336
What's great about it: Advanced smoke and carbon monoxide detector
What's not so great: poor path light ( if hung flush on wall)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great decision

My Xbl account was set to expire and auto renew on 11/20/2013. I figured why not go buy this card instead and just take advantage on the included DLC. to my surprise when the product rang up, it included a 20.00 xbl store credit too! so, I got a full year of xbl, two DLC codes and now 20.00! I couldn't be happier! if anyone's xbl is going to expire, or even if not, since it won't go into effect until your current subscription expires. I would strongly recommend taking advantage of this deal.

Good Game Overall, Some Technical Drawbacks

The Walking Dead game was very entertaining and drew me into the story line instantly. The graphics were better then the IOS version and the sound was really good. I played through the entire game and the DLC over a weekend and really had a good time playing it. However, there were some drawbacks. At least for me, the black levels were horrible even with the brightness turned to a 10. I play a lot of videogames and this was the first game to make me feel this way. I noticed the game glitched for me twice requiring me to play specific sections over again. Button queues would be missing and I had to look at a gaming websites walkthrough to determine it was glitching. Overall a fun game and quick achievements but I wouldn't of been so willing to give a good review if this game was full price.
My Best Buy number: 397654336
What's great about it: The story was compelling and well written, Had the ability to decide how you wanted to play, good price.
What's not so great: Black Levels WERE BAD and game glitches

This game is absolutly amazing! I have been purchasing the 2K series of basketball games since the dreamcast. I honestly have to say this one takes the cake. I was a HUGE live fanboy since 95 but for the past several years it has been on a decline. I didnt even hesitate deciding between the two. The AI is amazing this year and it should be a true challenge even for the expierenced gamer. HAVE FUN!!!
What's great about it: DAILY UPDATES, FUN, Differnt, Challenging
What's not so great: Runs SLOW at times (IE Freethrows and in between quarters)

You learn that this once idealistic society, the brainchild of a hopeful group of scientists, artists and industrialists, now has corpses littering the city limits.Going beyond run-and-gun corridors BioShock presents a unique and unpredictable first-person shooter experience in real time. In order to survive an onslaught of assailants, you must take control of your world by hacking mechanical devices, capturing security towers and crafting items to protect yourself. Upgrade your weapons and genetically modify your body to evade the grotesque ghouls who are after you. Make meaningful choices and mature decisions to ultimately answer the question: Should you exploit the innocent survivors of Rapture or save them?

This game is AMAZING~ I would suggest this to anyone who wants a new game for there collection. I cant wait for Bioshock to come out on the PS3. Not because I like PS3 better, its because it will give me another reason to play through this great game again. Note to game develpers. Use bioshock as a template and then proceed~~
You will not be sorry with this purchase!
What's great about it: Entertaining, Difficult,
What's not so great: To Short.
