When the success of your next quest hangs in the balance, or only one more hairpin turn stands between you and first place. When the clock is running out and your team must defend that flag at all costs, or the next combo attack could either be your greatest or your last. When the on-screen action is intense, nothing matters more to the success of your game than the relationship you have with the controller in your hands. The DUALSHOCK family of controllers has always brought you innovative features and precise control. The DUALSHOCK 4 is no different and brings an exciting array of additional features that are designed to usher your gaming experience into the next generation. With these additions, the DUALSHOCK 4 Controller becomes an extension of your brain, turning every move of your fingers into an accurate performance in the game ~ and in your hands, accurate performance can only mean victory.How gamers use a controller is being redefined right before our very eyes as the next generation of consoles also redefines many other aspects of gaming. The DUALSHOCK 4 controller is equipped with a multitouch touch pad on the face of the controller, opening up a new world of gameplay. The integrated light bar generates a rainbow of colors and works with your favorite games to enable innovative gaming experiences. The DUALSHOCK 4's share button lets you upload screenshots and video of epic gaming moments or live-stream sessions with your pals ~ with the press of a button.

The future of gaming is now, and the features of this controller live up to the hype.

Awesome looking controller!

Not much to say other than the color is different than the stock black one. This one has a nice bright blue with black button/grip to give it a pretty slick and cool contrast. The battery works great and no issues with buttons sticking.

Story is awesome, graphics are much improved (increased anti-aliasing and draw-distance) increased traffic and extras. The first person view is a nice addition but it is a bit different because none of the other gta's had the view and the movement is a little twitchier. The story is awesome and interesting. The dialogue is hilarious and very well acted. Overall a pretty entertaining game with high replayability.

Great movie with fantastic picture quality. I'm a big sci-fan and this blu-ray is superb. The cgi looks realistic and the story is entertaining. It also includes dvd and digital version.

Best game I've every played!!

Awesome graphics, gameplay, and story. It has a human element that we could all relate to which is why the story is so good and addicting. Some parts can be scary and suspenseful. Graphics are awesome and much improved to the ps3 version. This is the one game I recommend to all my friends.

The producers of Planet Earth explore some truly remarkable creatures and their unique habitats, many of which have never been captured on camera before. Star nosed moles, Zambian bats, and the Vogelkop bowerbird are just a few of the creature's you'll encounter as the filmmakers take viewers to distant continents, using state-of-the-art filming techniques to drift along with migrating elephants, soar through the sky with monarch butterflies, and witness a mating battle (also known as a "heat run") between male humpback whales. A two week visit with some Komodo dragons allows us to witness with striking detail how the mighty, ancient beasts can manage the unique feat of taking down an animal that towers over them in size. The series concludes with a "making-of" special which reveals how the dedicated filmmakers worked for more than four years to deliver a nature series with the power to take your breath away. Narrated by David Attenborugh.

GREAT Documentary!
on January 10, 2015

If you're a fan of planet earth then you'll love this. Some clips are from planet earth and some are new material. This is the David Attenborough narration so it is better than the Oprah one that everyone hates. Picture quality is fantastic and in 1080p. It was on-sale for very cheap during the holidays!

Time feels suspended at the starting gate as you and the other riders lean forward anxiously. Your hands unconsciously move up toward your face, checking that your goggles are secure and in place. Your fingers tighten around the handlebars, gripping tightly with determination and the overwhelming desire to win. You were born to race. You take off and immediately the air is filled with a haze of wheel-flung mud and dirt and the sounds of a dozen engines throttling. You time your first double jump perfectly, achieving serious airtime in the process. The rider next to you was not so lucky and in your peripheral vision you can see that he came up short. Everything starts to become a blur, but you've ridden so many times that by this point it's almost second nature. You approach the finish line, neck and neck with another rider. You execute a series of mini hills excellently, noticing that the other rider has fallen behind, sending you rocketing across the finish line as the clear winner.Take on a virtually unlimited array of platform-racing challenges in Trials Fusion, where you'll have to draw on your motocross skills to make your way across a plethora of courses filled with obstacles, ramps and jumps. Set track records against some of the best Trials players around the globe by competing in worldwide tournaments. Race on official courses and experience a rich world of custom courses, which are built by some of the most skilled content creators in the game. Perform insane acrobatic stunts and maneuvers with the brand-new FMX tricks system. The included Season Pass helps you stay in the action with six DLC packs and a new Career mode event, as well as tracks and items for the track editor and five bonus unlockable in-game items. Enjoy an over-the-top racing experience with Trials Fusion.

Easy to play. Great graphics. Lots of levels, includes the season pass DLC code for downloading new map packs. I bought it for my 8yr old nephew for christmas and he seems to enjoy the map editor since he's into minecraft and building things.

Slightly above average sound
on December 8, 2014
Posted by: ates
If you wan't something for the bedroom to replace those tiny tv speakers then this will do the job. Just don't put this thing in the living room and expect high sound quality. As a bedroom speaker the audio quality for movies and videogames is much better than the stock tv. The treble is nice and clear for audio voices and sound effects. The bass is decent considering there is no external subwoofer. For music this thing sound horrible. I would only recommend this for a bedroom tv/pc setup whose main use is movies/tv and videogames.

Use this intelligent adapter to connect your iPhone 5 or 5s, iPod touch (5th generation), or iPod nano (7th generation) featuring the Lightning connector to many of your 30-pin accessories. The 0.2m-long cable provides extra length to connect to 30-pin accessories.

Works Great but expensive!
on December 8, 2014
Posted by: ates
Works great for connecting the iphone 6 to a car stereo deck with 30pin connector. The only negative is it doesn't charge while it is plugged and it is quite a bit expensive for a cable adaptor. But if you wan't something that works and don't wan't to deal with the hassle of generic adaptors then buy it.

iPhone 6 isn't just bigger ~ it's better in every way. Larger yet thinner. More powerful, yet power efficient. It's a new generation of iPhone.
Posted by: ates
Fantastic screen, battery life, and apple hardware. The only negative is it is a littler large and uncomfortable to fit in your jean front pocket or back pocket.

Upgrade your home theater system with this NVIDIA SHIELD Android console. It lets you stream 4K HDR movies and TV shows and play hundreds of PC-quality games via GeForce NOW or Android streaming. The 16GB of internal memory stores your favorite multimedia files, and the voice search feature of this NVIDIA SHIELD Android console lets you access content immediately.
Overall4 out of 5
4 out of 5Performs identical to 2015 model but lacks ports
By ates
To clarify this has same internal specifications (CPU/Ram) as the previous 2015 16gb release and functions the same. The shield TV itself is reduced in size but at a cost of removing the micro-USB, and microSD slot. On the front the IR-receiver is also removed. The remote is different too, it is now made of plastic, uses a coin battery that must be replaced, and does not have the 3.5mm headphone jack for private listening. The controller has been updated for ergonomics, google voice commands, and increased battery life due to BT connection. Overall, the Shield TV functions the same but is a re-launch to get the controller bundle out and save Nvidia in manufacturing cost by reducing the inputs of the 16gb and making the remote plastic. The 2015 Nvidia Shield TVs will get an OTA firmware update so both would have identical performance/firmware/software. If you have the old Shield TV then it's not necessary to get this. This does have a new controller but the Shield TV/Remote is a downgrade as it lacks the inputs and aluminum remote.
