The movie is growing on us... the kids loved it from the click of play. After watching it over and over and over it's growing on us too. Fun movie for the entire family. Great voice acting and enough adult jokes to keep parents involved and interested.
My Best Buy number: 1046524345
What's great about it: kids love the minions.
What's not so great: hard to live up to the original.

Outnumbered and outgunned, but not outmatched.Call of Duty: Ghosts is an extraordinary step forward for one of the largest entertainment franchises of all-time. This new chapter in the Call of Duty franchise features a new dynamic where players are on the side of a crippled nation fighting not for freedom, or liberty, but simply to survive.Fueling this all-new Call of Duty experience, the franchise's new next-gen engine delivers stunning levels of immersion and performance, all while maintaining the speed and fluidity of 60 frames-per-second across all platforms.

Another subpar COD game

Verified Purchase:Yes
Game is fun but they left a lot to be desired.
They changed just enough to keep die hard COD fans but not enough to keep the casual fan interested.
I hope the next COD takes next gen leaps. This one was clearly built for PS3 and that's fine but I expected much more.

What's great about it: Changed just enough...
What's not so great: Another stale COD game

Fun game but overall could be so much better. Added some pretty cool features while keeping a lot exactly the same.
No competition for NFL football games means it can get lazy and stale while still living off of the Madden name.
My Best Buy number: 1046524345
What's great about it: Fun for adults and kids.
What's not so great: Madden is Madden. No competition means stale game year after year.

The PS4 is a graphical powerhouse, able to deliver massive game worlds with impressive clarity and detail. 8GB of RAM allows for serious multitasking potential, complementing the great apps and features that make up the PS4 experience. The PlayStation brand of consoles has an impressive history of delivering world-class exclusive games, and the trend is sure to continue with the PS4. The growing blockbuster catalog is backed by a library of free-to-play and indie games, giving you flexibility in how you pay and play. The PS4 also acts as a social hub, with several built-in features that take advantage of the social networks you're already using. The controller's Share button opens up a world of video sharing, with the option to stream your gameplay live or record it to edit and post later. PlayStation Vita owners will enjoy the connectivity that ties the two devices together, from Remote Play, which allows you to play your PS4 games on your Vita's screen over a local Wi-Fi network, to Cross-Buy, which allows you to purchase a game digitally only once and play it on both your PS4 and your Vita. All PS4 consoles will need a firmware update and must be connected to the Internet to complete the update. While your console will not always need to be connected to the Internet, a one-time connection is required for the update. Online multiplayer requires a paid PlayStation Plus membership. Some features require a broadband Internet connection; ISP fees apply. PS3 games, controllers and some accessories are not compatible with the PS4.

I like the system...

I really like the system. Great improvements from ps3...
Good:
Stream feature works flawlessly.
Controller is much approved.
Price is more affordable than xbone even though xbone includes kinect.
Bad:
Limited titles at launch.
Launch headset is unusable.
Overall I'm glad I got it but I'd also suggest waiting for others until more titles were released... especially since the holidays are right around the corner.
What's great about it: Better dashboard, stream, controller
What's not so great: Limited titles at launch. HORRIBLE launch headset...

It's been a decade since the events at Raccoon City, and the President of the United States has decided it's time to reveal the truth behind what happened. His hope is that it will calm the resurgent tide of bioterrorist activity, but when the venue where the President is located is central to a bioterrorist attack, he is transformed beyond recognition. His personal friend and Raccoon City survivor, Leon S. Kennedy, is forced to face the changed President and make the hardest decision of his life. At the same time, Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance member Chris Redfield arrives in China and finds the nation under threat of a similar bioterrorist attack. With no country safe from harm and the subsequent outbreaks, the entire world has one thing in common: fear that there is no hope left.Return to the horribly disfigured world of the Resident Evil universe with Resident Evil 6. Facing an unprecedented threat that looms in the minds of the world's population, franchise-favorites Leon S. Kennedy and Chris Redfield join forces for the first time in the series. The latest installment to the legendary action- and survival-horror franchise delivers three distinct and interwoven storylines. Experience the thrilling horror with multiple characters and their respective partners. Leon S. Kennedy is paired with U.S. government agent Helena Harper, Chris Redfield has teamed up with BSAA member Piers Nivans, and Jake Muller, son of the infamous Albert Wesker and gun for hire, has joined up with Sherry Birkin, who is the daughter of former Umbrella scientists, William and Annette. Face the deadly C-virus ~ and its gruesome effects ~ in this worldwide adventure that will take you to North America, war-torn eastern Europe and China. Engage in white-knuckle combat against terrifying and advanced zombies that can run, jump and use weapons against you. Strategically attack enemy creatures, known as J'avo, who possess the ability to regenerate when injured and mutate severely damaged body parts into different forms. Experience a vast array of horrific creatures ~ that are an abomination to nature ~ thanks to the mutated Chrysalide. Use the evolved control system to shoot while moving, slide, roll, take cover and execute powerful melee attacks. Lock and load for the thrilling action in single-player and co-op gameplay, available on- and offline. Pre-order Resident Evil 6 to receive an exclusive map that functions with various game modes. With humanity on the brink of disaster, are you ready to become civilization's last hope?

Price is cheap but game play isn't as strong as RE 5.... Had a lot of hope for this being a good co-op game but so far hasn't been what I expected...

The incredibly small, wearable music player has a clickable control pad. And VoiceOver tells you the song title or playlist name.
