I held out for awhile before buying this unit. As anyone who is into this, you can rifle off specs and the whatnot. You know it you love it , or hate.
My one gripe is there is no legacy Bluetooth support. Have a bluetooth headset? Great it's not supported. In what seems like a step backwards you have to be tethered to a usb port or to the controller using a 3.5mm headphone jack device. The unit comes with a cheap headset that is much to big for my ear and is quite uncomfortable. If you have a set of headphones from an Iphone, or similar device that has a Microphone built in this will work. I am currently using a set from a Galaxy S4.

Seems Great So Far

Purchased this unit as a way to share files between multiple locations. At home local setup was a breeze, with the only trouble being from outdated documentation in regards to Western Digital's website and software you have to download. Once I downloaded WD Access I was off and running. The only sticking point I have in setup lies squarely on my ISP and router configuration. But Western Digital has a great community support site that helped me wade through the process.

Charge and display your DUALSHOCK 4 wireless controller with the officially licensed Charging Stand. Charging is a snap - Simply connect the charging adapter to the micro USB port on the DUALSHOCK 4, set the controller on the stand and click down to see the LED base light up to indicate charging level. When fully charged, click to release contact and simply leave the controller on the stand. Be certain your controller is always ready to game as it stylishly charges on display alongside of your PS4 console.

Hardly a bargain with this freeby

I received this unit as part of the buy a system get this, and Fallout 4 deal. The package contains the charge station, a microusb connector. The charging station is connected to a usb port via a foot long usb cable and no A/C wall adapter is included. To me this charging station is beyond useless. How it works, the above mentioned microusb connector is plugged into the top of the remote, angling down behind the remote with two recessed conductors, the controller is then sat atop the charge base and pressed down to initiate the charging. The base is this cheap spring loaded plastic case that is molded to the bottom of the controller. Its stills well enough but the spring load action is wonky. Previous to me buying a PS4 I charged my PS3 controls through my cable box's always on usb port and the route I go with my PS4 control, and if I do use a wall adapter I will just use one from my various phone chargers. In summary this thing accomplishes nothing that you can't already do with what comes with the PS4, other than to take up space.

SynopsisExperience the final chapter in the Solid Snake saga with Metal Gear Solid 4. Travel around with world with Solid Snake to locations in South America, the Middle East and other dangerous areas. As he hunts down archnemesis Liquid Ocelot, Snake's packing the deadliest weapons and touting the most impressive abilities of his career. See if he can enter enemy territory undetected amidst the chaos of battle. Should Snake fail in his final mission, civilization will pay a terrible price: world domination.Combine stealth, strategy and combat to achieve your goals. Know when to aid local militia in the fight and when to let the battle rage on so you can use the chaos as cover. As you infiltrate enemy territory, don the OctoCamo stealth suit to match seamlessly with your environments. You can also rely on your contact, Otacon, to give you the new Mk. II reconnaissance tool as well as the Solid Eye, which provides vital stats on enemies and your surroundings. Visit Drebin on the black market and trade for bigger, badder weapons. The more you trade, the more custom weapons and modifications you'll unlock. Once you have the firepower, feel free to unleash it on waves of invading PMC soldiers.

I find myself surprisingly addicted to the online portion of this game. I've played through the single player and it was good. On the lower difficulties don't expect much of a challange. Online if very we'll done, when it works. Konami has worked very hard to work out those bugs though. Must have game for any PS3 owner.
What's great about it: Stunning Visual Effects, Metal Gear Online
What's not so great: Long Cut Scenes Interupt Your Gameplay, Expansion Packs

This second feature-length film based in the STARGATE SG-1 universe, a follow-up to STARGATE THE ARK THE TRUTH, finds the SG-1 crew attending the execution of the nefarious Ba'al, the supposed final System Lord of the galaxies-spanning dominant alien race Goa'uld. When Teal'c and Vala suddenly evaporate into thin air, however, the rest of the crew heads back to Earth as quickly as possible in hopes to get to the bottom of their bizarre disappearances. What they find is worse than they could have ever imagined. A world in which the Stargate was never discovered awaits them, thus negating much of their own history and personal pasts. Before they can convince the military that not only did this time-tampering occur, but that it is the handiwork of Ba'al, hundreds of Go'uld ships line Earth's orbit. It's up to Maj. Gen.

I was surprisingly disappointed by this release. First off I would have rather bought the Blu-Ray version but for $35 no thank you. I'm glad I just went DVD. Unlike the Ark Of Truth, it felt like nothing was resolved. Time paradoxes have been done before in the series, and I felt that the story was rushed to end it. I hope for more Stargate but please give us something more to wrap ourselves around.
What's great about it: It's more Stargate
What's not so great: Been there done that.
