Fun game to pass the time.

I bought this game mainly because I'd seen the anime on Netflix and enjoyed it. It's combat fun, but repetitive. The flight controls feel intuitive and it's cool just to fly around the environment at times. Unless you're a fan of the show, I don't think you'll enjoy this game as much. It's a self contained story so watching the anime isn't a requirement, but it helps.

This movie reminds me of Die Hard. Though not as good, it's still a fun action movie to pass the time.

Great tactical shooter!

This game is pretty much just an online multiplayer. It has single player content in the form of tutorials called Situations that introduce the player to some of the operatives used in multiplayer, but is nothing more than that. You can easily burn through those in 1hr. I don't play a lot of online multiplayer games. Mostly just Battlefield, Titanfall, and Elite Dangerous, and I never really had a reason to use the headset. This game, however, changed both of these things. I can't stop playing it on my spare time. It's addicting. The matches are 5v5, Attackers v. Defenders, with the objectives being TDM, Rescue/Protect the Hostage, and Plant/Defuse the Bomb. The matches are usually short and exhilarating because they require you to work together with your team to win. This is where the headset comes in. I've noticed that the team with all, or at least three, headsets usually wins because players are communicating where the enemies and objectives are and can come up with a plan on how to proceed. Each operative has a unique ability or piece of equipment and it is best to talk with teammates on who should take on the role of which operative. Weapons can be customized, though not to the extent of a game such as Battlefield for example, but enough to make it effective for any situation. You can add sights, barrels (suppresor, flash hider, or compensator) under barrel (laser) and a vertical grip. The thing that bugs me the most is the progression system. You earn "Renown" for completing the tutorials, matches, and smaller actions like destroying enemy equipment. These Renown points are then used to unlock new operatives and weapon attachments. The trouble is, the operatives become increasingly pricey to unlock. You unlock the first operative of each CTU group for 500 renown. The next is 1000, then 1500, and finally 2000. You get a good amount of renown when you win matches, but a very low amount when you lose. Even worse, once you reach a certain rank (I forgot at what rank) the amount of renown you receive even from winning seems to drop. So if you're having a bad gaming session, don't expect to be gaining any renown at a good pace. You can buy renown with real money, but I've hated this method of progression ever since it was introduced. there are some glitches that I've noticed such as: no audio until you restart the game, no dialogue audio until you re-install the game, game crashes in the menu or during a match (just 2 times so far). Also, all the game modes might as well be death matches since most matches I play it doesn't matter what the objective is, most end with the death of your team or the opposition.

I love this movie! Robert Downey Jr., Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Tom Cruise, and the rest of the cast all have great performances! If you're into comedies, I would definitely pick this movie up.

Great for what it is.

First off, this will NOT replace your phone in any significant way. It's more of a convenient extension for those that are usually busy and don't want to take their phone in and out of their pocket repeatedly. PROS: nice design, reasonable battery life, great for glancing at e-mails, texts, and other updates quickly(weather, maps, Instagram, Facebook, etc.), great for tracking workout data, good for setting reminders, and of course it can also tell you the time. The watch faces are fairly customizable (some more than others) and present selected information nicely. You can control music with the watch and certain movie apps. CONS: phone calls have a delay when talking. I noticed the receiving end would hear what I said 2, sometimes 3, second after I've said it. I know it's probably not such a huge deal to some, but it's noticeable. Texting is either through preset replies such as: Thanks, okay, can we talk later? Or through voice dictation. Voice dictation is spotty and has trouble clearly hearing what I said. Unless you workout often enough that you can take full advantage of the heart rate monitor and workout tracker, there really isn't much here for you to use.
It's a great piece of tech and can come in real handy when you need to quickly reply to a text or email. I don't regret buying it at all, but would only recommend to those that live an active lifestyle and enjoy seeing the results of a workout. To others I usually say it's best to wait until the next one is announced. I'm sure the next Apple Watch will have functions better suited for every lifestyle.

Amazing game!
on November 27, 2015

This game is one of the most refined first person shooters I have played this year, aside from Destiny. The only reason I give it a 4/5 is because of the exclusion of split screen. One of my favorite features of past halo games was split screen because I could play alongside my girlfriend, nephew, or friends whenever they came over. It was a huge disappointment when I read that split screen wasn't going to be included.
Other than that, the online multiplayer is fantastic and so much fun! The graphics are great. The sound effects and music are very well done. The gameplay is everything you'd expect from a halo game. Fast, responsive, and just an overall blast! The new movements and functions Spartans have in this sequel are definitely a huge improvement. In past games I never got the full sense that Spartans are these faster, stronger super soldiers because they had moves that any other soldier would seem to have. Besides a higher jump, I didn't feel the Spartan was much different from other soldiers. Now you can slide, smash through walls (not all, but specific destructible ones) glide while shooting, shoulder charge, ground pound (my favorite), and quick boost an any direction.
The story is very well written and even though you don't spend as much time in the Master Chief's boots this time around, the new protagonist, Spartan Locke, and his team are a welcome addition.

This movies is simply amazing due to the stunt work alone. Not a whole lot in terms of story, but the art direction and music is captivating. The characters are memorable and the vehicles are jawdroppinlgy gorgeous.

Best X-Men movie yet!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I loved this movie from the first time I saw it. I was a bit reluctant about buying this version because I didn't really believe anything too significant would be added to warrant a new purchase. The addition of Rouge's scenes are great, but some of the other additions just seem to slow the narrative down a bit. A few extra lines were added for characters like Bishop, Sunfire, and Warpath but they're not all that important. You can definitely tell that the CGI used on the extra scenes isn't on par with the rest of the film and can be a little distracting. All-in-all it's still the same, fantastic movie released the first time around with some tweaks. That said, I would only recommend this version if you don't already own the original release.

The story and character development are a little lacking. The action is pretty good compared to the marvel movies before it. I still enjoyed this movie, but bought it mostly just to complete my phase 1 collection.
