Solid for discounted price years later. Good game

Couldn't compete at full retail price (sixty bucks) with games like the Life is Strange and all the Telltale series. The game itself is good and well worth the twenty bucks or less price it goes for now. I do look forward to see what David Cage will do next!

Heavy Rain was better, so is Life Is Strange

Unique and interesting but I would not have been happy paying $60 for this. At fifteen dollars or less, it is worth it, however.

One of the most exciting games on PS3.

Naughty Dog owned last gen with all 3 Uncharted games and The Last of Us. The gameplay is perfect, the story is as good as Indiana Jones, and it is just the right blend of gunplay, puzzles, exploration, and cinematics. I would NEVER get tired of Naughty Dog doing action-adventure.

One of the best last-gen games, without question
on March 27, 2015
Posted by: rodericrinehart
from Indiana
I think anything lower than a 9 is a troll review. The game is expansive, memorable, great gameplay, classic Rockstar GTA but in the Wild West. It is one of the 10 best games of last gen, and it was never ported to the PC. We all eagerly await Red Dead 2 and it would blow the doors off this gen!

One of the 10 greatest games of all-time
on March 27, 2015
Posted by: rodericrinehart

Definitely one of the 10 greatest games of all time, and probably a fraction of a hair better than GTA V (minus the graphics). Metacritic and GameRankings have in Top 10 all platforms, all time, and it is obvious why.

Better than every Dark Souls. Best new gen game!
on March 24, 2015
Posted by: rodericrinehart

It's everything Dark Souls was, cranked up to 11. This is the best non-remake game on new gen yet. (The Last of Us was one of my favorite games of all time, however).
This is a system seller if there ever was one. Hard, but not in stupid ways. It challenges you to be better and you will, or you will die repeatedly.

We love this new 3DS in every way.

My daughter and I love this new 3DS. The two best features by far are the C-stick (which is WAY better than I thought it would be) and the 3D (which is light years past the old 3D).
It is snappier, I like the new layout of the buttons, and it will play new games exclusive to it (which will increase over time).

Charging into combat on the battlefield, you find yourself face-to-decaying-face with hordes of undead warriors. Dismembered body parts fly this way and that, as bullets and arrows whiz past your ears. You return their fire with all of your might, but it seems to barely dent their massive numbers. In despair, you believe you've been left for dead. Suddenly, you hear the familiar war cries of your comrades in arms. Perfectly performing all of the tactics you taught them, your soldiers join your side, cutting down zombies left and right. Together, you will stand or fall ~ can you lead this noble army to ultimate victory?Take command of a unique band of soldiers and guide them to glory on the battlefield in Fire Emblem: Awakening. In this brilliantly rendered fantasy adventure for the Nintendo 3DS, you have the power to turn the tides of battle in an epic war against a dark dragon. Your fire-breathing foe threatens to destroy the entire empire with help from his armies of the undead ~ but with your loyal crew of fighters, you just may be the one to stop him for good. Create your own customized soldier and join a massive cast of interesting characters who all have their own stories to tell. Heighten your power on the battlefield by strengthening the bonds between your troops and even enlisting a friend of your own. Plus, with StreetPass and SpotPass options, you can access exciting new items, characters and maps. The world depends on your leadership ~ this is your Awakening.

Turn-based strategy god of games

Gender:Male
This is turn-based, tactical strategy at its absolute finest. You will play this game for HUNDREDS of hours ... and then replay it to experience new marriages and children on the game, and try even harder difficulty levels.
This is a true hardcore game with permadeath and serious management of strategy (marriages, children, team selection) and tactics (placement, movement, pairing up).
A truly unforgettable gaming experience.

Players have been going on daring adventures with Link for more than two decades. An instant classic, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past for the Super NES, introduced gamers to a storyline that has been rejuvenated with The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. With new features and an enhanced look, you'll love embarking on a new journey with Link.Link is setting off on another adventure in Hyrule, but this time he has some new abilities under his belt. Transform into a "drawing" and move along the walls of dungeons, so you can explore locations Link could never reach before and open up new puzzle elements for thrilling gameplay challenges. The amazing visuals and 60 frames per second transform the 2D world and enhance it with elevation and depth for an experience the reinvents the classic. The 3DS also allows more freedom with customized settings ~ just touch and drag items from the item window and switch them with what are assigned to the X and Y buttons.

THIS IS NOT A LAPTOP, THIS IS A GOOGLE APPS HOLDER
By LaptopSeeker
First off, if I search for a laptop, Chromebooks should not be included. This is not what the typical Joe is looking for when they search for a laptop. Anyone that will be satisfied with a Chromebook will search for a Chromebook.
So when I purchased this so I could do some urgent work on the go, only to realize once it was already too late that this piece of plastic does not operate any Microsoft applications, it was extremely annoying.
Moreover, when I tried to use MS Online or QuickBooks Online, it would keep prompting me to install the latest version of Chrome. When I tried doing that, it would tell me I have the latest version of Chrome installed. You could only imagine the frustration...
Do not waste your time on this unless you are specifically looking for a Chromebook. In that case, its a nice and sleek device, but not worth the price tag even then.

Chromebooks are laptops, better for 90% of people
July 28, 2016
I use them for personal, work, and school - and it is speedier than Windows for everything. It is a laptop, and thankfully doesn't run Windows.
