SynopsisJust imagine this ~ you're sitting on your couch, lost in the action-packed excitement of your latest video game, when you see a pillow move out of the corner of your eye. Then a cabinet opens and closes, and then a little white critter emerges from under the floorboard. You've been warned for years that they could be real, you thought they were just imaginary. But now the invasion has started and is flooding your home with zany, crazy and wacky creatures. The Raving Rabbids are real ~ and they're in your living room with the power of the Kinect. Will you be able to stop the invasion before it's too late?Fire up your Kinect and get ready to fend off the threat of the hilarious and crazy critters in Raving Rabbids: Alive & Kicking. Watch as the Rabbids climb out of the floor and interact with you in fun-filled mini games with the power of augmented reality.

Just a good game
on August 27, 2012

This game is fun for random party of people. The game doesn't instruct you how to beat each mini game. I have calibrated my Kinect a few times but this game doesn't sense very well to your movements which can be frustrating as you try to progress through the game. There are a few good mini games but if you payed more than $5 for this, then it's not worth it. I only got it because it was on clearance for $5.
What's great about it: Has a few games that are enjoyable
What's not so great: Horrible sensor and instructions
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Decent RPG

It's a good game but I've dealt with some glitches which can be really annoying. I wish you can level up more than just the provided enemies for the missions or side missions.
What's great about it: Great
What's not so great: Gameplay is a bit slow along with glitches

Great movie to have. If you don't know the movie, then that is just sad. Great additional scenes from the Unrated Edition. Quality of the movie didn't seem that much of an upgrade to blu-ray. Still, it's a nice addition to any collection.
What's great about it: Extras from the Unrated Edition
What's not so great: Nothing else was new.

Decent Sequel

I didn't play Fable 2 but I did play the first one. This was really different than what I was used to. The graphics aren't that great. The whole gameplay is a joke because the game would freeze or slow down while I'm running or attacking which creates frustration over how poorly the programming was done on this game. Gameplay is fast but I have not finished it because I'm just too angry about all the little defects and bugs in the game. Enhancing your weapon is a bore since you have to do stupid side missions like digging 25 times or killing a certain breed/race which takes time in searching in different places for.
Overall, it was not worth it but I got it with my Xbox bundle. I'm going to sell it once I completely finish the game.

Great Sequel

Great game on the new Kinect system. It's a lot better playing this game without using Wii controllers. It's a lot more accurate as well. There's not that many popular songs on this one. However, the moves are more challenging.
What's not so great: Random songs that doesn't appeal to you as much as Just Dance 2

Awesome series!

Got this for a good price for $24.99 at best buy. Great storyline as it exists after the original Spartacus. Has great action, gore, and violence. It's like 300 and Gladiator combined.
What's not so great: I don't like the sleeves for the blu-ray disc.

Great Asian Flick!

Posted by: thnguyen1215
from Kansas City, KS
I loved this movie when I was a kid. So I was glad to see it for a pretty good price. If you haven't noticed, DVDs require you to turn your surround up higher whereas blu-rays don't require you to turn up your surround system as much.
I was pleasantly surprised how the sound quality was which was superb. The extras are just basic, nothing new. The movie and plot is enjoyable as it was when I first watched it.
What's great about it: The sound and picture quality has greatly improved
What's not so great: It doesn't have Mandarin, just Cantonese

Great Family Game!
on January 5, 2011
Posted by: thnguyen1215
from Kansas City, KS
This game is great for family reunions or if there's nothing to do outside. This game can give you a workout and the song selections are broad but you can purchase more songs through the Wii store.
It may be challenging at first but once you get used to the movement and can anticipate the next set of dance moves, then you're set. However, there are times when the sensor bar doesn't pick up your movements and if you're in a small room, there may be some accidental whacks from other players so watch out for that.
Also, you can cheat by not moving your legs. The Wii sensor bar can't pick up your leg movement since it's concentrated on the Wii remote.
What's not so great: The sensor bar may not pick up your movements at times.
I would recommend this to a friend!

GPS USB cable

I lost my Magellan GPS USB cable. Can I use my camera usb cable (it mechanically fits) or are the usb cables all different?
Tony
I think it should work. I used my ps3 cable to hook up Garmin's Nuvi 205 to my laptop to download updates.
