It's been 15 years since the events of Alien and the facts surrounding your mother's disappearance still remain a mystery. You've been forced to grow a thick skin since then, making your way carefully through an increasingly volatile world. You've had to deal with numerous confrontations with a frenzied population whose eyes belie animalistic fear and dread. But most of all you've had to devote your intelligence and skills to evading the Alien ~ a predatory monster who is constantly on your trail. Despite all of these obstacles and hazards to your life, you're still determined to complete your mission and unravel the truth behind your mother's vanishing.Set off on a desperate battle for survival and truth as Amanda, Ellen Ripley's daughter, as you navigate through Sevastopol, a decommissioned trading station located on the fringes of space. Meet a diverse cast of characters who have been shaped by a constant atmosphere of fear and mortal danger. Use your wits to find necessary resources, hack systems and craft items to deal with each unique situation. Escape the clutches of a dynamic, reactive Alien who hunts you mercilessly. Do you have what it takes to survive in Alien: Isolation?

Yes there's a couple glitches out there, but I played this near launch and barely noticed them. I love the fresh take on the franchise as well. The story, atmosphere, and graphics are really impressive. Some of the DLC w/the cast from the original Alien is also delightful.

Francis Ford Coppola's Masterpiece features Marlon Brando in his Oscar-winning role as the patriarch of the Corleone family. Director Coppola paints a chilling portrait of the Sicilian clan's rise and near fall from power in America, masterfully balancing the story between the Corleone's family life and the ugly crime business in which they are engaged. Based on Mario Puzo's best-selling novel and featuring career-making performances by Al Pacino, James Caan and Robert Duvall, this searing and brilliant film garnered ten Academy Award nominations, and won three including Best Picture of 1972.

I picked this up for $19.99 plus tax around Christmas for my Italian/Chilean girlfriend. Let's just say she loves these movies and loved me even more for it. I loved the price!

Strap up the boots and put on your shades as you step into the role of the King of Shooters. his name is Duke Nukem, the legendary hero who shook up the gaming world while chasing babes, chugging beers and smoking cigars, and when he's serious about something, no one can get in his way. Over the years, Duke has been kicking back and franchising himself on the fame he earned after saving Earth the first time. When the horde of invading aliens return, they begin stealing Earth's women, drinking all of Duke's beer and are slowly destroying Duke's gambling haven and franchise chains ~ this won't stand. It's time for everyone's favorite irreverent gunslinger to Make a Massive comeback and save the world again ~ his way.Return to the glory days, when shooter games Meant outrageously big enemies and even bigger weapons, in Duke Nukem Forever. Kick some Major alien butt ~ and take names ~ as you blast away enemies, evade alien shrink rays and battle giant bosses. Since no one, especially Duke Nukem, likes a workaholic, enjoy some chill time as the King, taking in some typical leisure activities like shooting hoops, lifting weights, reading adult Magazines and ogling lovely women. Enjoy the stream of hilarious one-liners that Duke says throughout the game. Never tire of the endless fun with explosive first-person shooter action, bizarre settings, driving and puzzle solving. Compete in explosive Multiplayer action with classic modes that let you shrink your opponent and squash them with your foot, freeze and shatter them, attach explosives to their back and More. Don't be another hero ~ be a bad guy-busting King with a serious 'tude. Forever is here ~ and the shades and the legend live on.

Cheap fun

Was hoping the game would be a little better in the graphics department, but it's more throwback to it's roots. Which is fine, and it's still fun if you're a Duke fan. I've only played thru a couple hours of it- will probably go back to it eventually.

Good background for a dinner party

Having watched the first 2 seasons and really enjoyed them I was wondering how Jod, Danny and co. would outdo themselves in season 3. They have. It's one of the most ludicrous shows you'll ever watch because they're constantly trying to surprise you with off the wall humor and story elements. No topic is off limits and honestly I love all the profanity. There's nothing on television like it. Like Paul Rudd says in one of my favorite movies, "it's not tv, it's HBO!"

This nature documentary, narrated by David Attenborough, captures wildlife in their natural African environments, some of which have never been filmed to this extent previously.

This is why you get blu-ray
on March 17, 2013
Posted by: THISISAFRICA
Yes its true Richard Attenborough likes to say a lot of cute one liners- but this is a phenomenal bluray. I have a 50" HDTV that is fairly new and I wanted a 'demo disc' to pop it's cherry. The fighting giraffes, the slow motion, and the cinematography. everything about this documentary is impressive. Add on to that if you've been to Africa or have a love for it. I think buying dvds is a waste of money, but there are always exceptions. Terrific value for $19.98.
