The graphics in the game are great. some of the best I have seen to date. however the game only has 1 option to play, and that is online. I didn't like that so I never bought it. I actually received it as a gift. I played it for about 2 weeks, and traded the whole thing in for a different game.

I had the game for about 3 weeks, played it off and on. I beat the game on hard and never went back to it. I ended up selling it off. The glaive idea is great, you can control it, bounce it off of things, gather things with it, power it up or ice it down or set it ablaze.
The glaive reminds me of the OLD OLD movie KRULL. perhaps the only reason I bought it in the first place. After I beat it I traded it off for a different game. It just didn't have that replay ability that other games have.

The game gets boring after a while, and you feel a sigh of relief once you've beaten it. I beat the game on hard in 4 days of play. After that I was done, I did not find it to be that fun.

This is a great game, the second I have ever played of the Sid Meyers games. This is by far and above the best so far, and I am sure that there is more to come. Goes from yawning easy to panic attack hard for levels. They have released several free and pay upgrades to the game so far and I have them all. the game just keeps you in it.
What's great about it: A LOT of replayability
What's not so great: The pop up characters are annoying.

I have owned the original RB game since it was released. I LOVE IT. The second is even better. More songs, PLUS you can import all but 3 of the original songs from the RB 1 disk to be played in RB 2. The online play is MUCH better, the world tour is fantastic, however a little more thought in the game to make the songs change from venue to venue would have been better. You will find yourself often times playing the same songs over and over again in different venues. Especially on the random set lists. I am almost tired of Green Grass and High Tides. Other then that the game is fantastic, A far cry BETTER then the Guitar Hero world tour game. As well as the option to buy the cymbal packs to add on to the RB 2 drum set is REALLY NICE. make game play a little more "real."
What's great about it: TONS of new songs
What's not so great: the calibration set is a bit odd.

Ok, I got sick and tired of having to use up 2 of my 4 usb ports on my 80Gig PS3, as well as I got tired of the cords. They constantly kept getting in the way of other things. As well as my 2 cats thought that when the cords hung down that they would be great toys. As well as I have a 2 year old son, and any chance to grab anything in his reach he would.
I purchased this on a more or less whim. It looked good in the packaging. When I got it home and placed it on my cabinet, it looked great sitting near my PS3.
Unlike the comments that were said about the LED's going out, I have yet to have that problem. The lights change from Red (charging) to Green (charged.) They do take a bit to get used to for plugging in the controllers, especially since I have the color change controller covers I have on my 2 controllers, but even with them on the controllers still slip in nice and easy and snug.
The base has 2 extra ports on it to allow you to plug in 2 wires to charge up 2 extra controllers. The base sits firmly on the cabinet, does not tip over unless it is given force. It looks stylish, and functions well.
Even if you DO get the LED's going out problem, leaving the controllers plugged in for at least 30 minutes will give you quite a while longer of play if needed.
The price is a little high for a charging station, but then again it is worth it, at least it was for me.
What's great about it: It functions well, it looks great on the cabinet.

I have read the previous reviews, and found that many of them are correct. Fallout 3 is very much basically "Oblivion with guns." But then again it is not. It does follow suit with the 2 previous versions. The graphics are VERY appealing, game play is very good. straight forward and good to go. Apparently the PS3 version is supposed to have glitches, but mine has not. I have over 20 hours of playing on it and have not had any lock ups or freezes or anything else that was reported. Perhaps it is because I have the nYko intercooler on my PS3. The map is quite big, and provides you with a lot more then just the "main story." Overall I find the game to be quite fun, grabbing, and entertaining. I half heartedly expect Bethesda to release an add-on disk for this game to increase the playability, similar to what they did with Oblivion.
What's great about it: It's open ended similar to Oblivion
What's not so great: This is NOT a kids game.........

for those of us old enough to actually remember the ORIGINAL Alvin and the Chipmunks this really brings you back. It's a fun movie, and quite entertaining.
The Blu-Ray version is so much more clear then the regular dvd version.
I also like how in the extra's they give a history of how the chipmunks came to be, and honors the man responsible for them.
What's great about it: GREAT details on the BD format

the action and adventure of this movie will bring you in. The Special Effects REALLY stand out on the Blu-Ray format then they do on the regular dvd format.
What's great about it: GREAT Details on the BD format
What's not so great: Milla as a overpowered zombie again.

While I never got the chance to see this movie in the theaters, I knew it would be one that my son would like. It's got good action, and great fantasy. The extra's are rather fun even for adults.
I have watched both the regular and the Blu-Ray versions, and highly recommend getting the Blu-Ray version.
