Nice but not MAINSTREAM Music
on November 9, 2008
Posted by: austinite04
from TEXAS
I had this service for 3 months. I did like it at first then I realized it wasn't totally MAINSTREAM, sure it had some A-listers (Taylor Swift,Aretha) but I am seriously baffled that they don't have some much better artists like anyone from austin, TX which is the Live Music Capital and has a ton of artists just wanting a website that will pick em up. I must not reccomend this service if your used of A listers!!! It's weird at times, it has alot of Seattle Grunge indy pop so watch out. I can't really see how this site is still up!! Not to mention it should be free!!
What's great about it: Music You won't find anywhere else
What's not so great: There's a reason why...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

GAME OF THE YEAR!!!

The first second I popped LBP in to my Ps3 to the time the install screen popped up, I knew this game was going to be different. I watched Beta user videos on You Tube and Thats what encouraged me to buy this game. I'm so glad I bought this game, the story is trying at times but ultimately can be beat in 6 hours if you breeze through the levels. BUT I must tell you that I strongly encourage you grab every new item bubble, It makes your user levels more fun when you make them. I have yet to find anything impossible to reach as when I get to the 2 player parts in a level I simply press start and invite a buddy to help me out, they can leave shortly after they do. I would like to see what other game lets you have buddy support like that. I must say that the overall feel of the Media Molecule Levels are by far the best levels I've seen in a game. This doesn't fade like with some other games over time would. ( I have Mario Galaxy and never play it anymore) I must make clear that as far as the editor goes, it's not for the faint at heart (no offense) It requires alot of time to make the perfect level. I'm on version 3 of my first level. It has Unlimited bubbles (the game currency) I can't wait to learn the elevator tool, there are a ton of videos and sample areas to learn how to use things. It does take along time but its worth it when 10,000 sackboys/girls played your level and your #1 on the LBP community. The trophy system only sweetens the deal. You get trophies for just about everything you do. All I can say now is WHY DON't You Have this game already???, lol !!!!! Get it now!! 10 out of 10 5 stars and 10000% are my grades for this game. I recommend this game to anyone who nows what a Ps3 and a TV are. and have a little bit of imagination.
What's great about it: Graphics,community,Infinite Levels,100% Moddabability
What's not so great: Network lag, which will get fixed soon, so really no downfalls.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A Must Have for Die Hard Fans
on July 10, 2008

I loved the movie as a kid and what really kept me focused back when I saw it on VHS in 1987 or something like that was the music and the movies' characters. I'm going to Burn this to my PS3 so I can listen to it in the ATRAC format which will be so much better than WMA or AAC. Let me extend what I said about this being a rare find, I looked everywhere and Best buy was the only place Cheap enough and the only site that I could trust with my Personal Info. People, This music means so much to me, it was an inspiration along with the movie itself for me to be a better kid back in the 80's. I have no idea what I would have done without this movie&Music. I insist everyone get this right now as it is slowly becoming more and more of a one of a kind, No retailers carry this soundtrack anymore. I bought it just so I could have the chance to hold on to this music forever. This music cd is priceless $11.00 is nothing for complete happiness. I Hope everyone stumbling across this review can draw up enough courage to get this CD it is one that you can listen to 10 billion times and never get tired of it. I am obsessed with The never ending Story, I will never get tired of it, I want it on Blu-ray really bad. I will buy the Hi-def version the minute it comes out it means that much to me.
What's great about it: The Whole Soundtrack, Nice Non offensive music
What's not so great: What cons? This movie and it's music are flawless, Timeless! An Impossible CD to find on Napster or Rhapsody or anywhere
I would recommend this to a friend!

What does the American Dream mean today? For Niko Bellic, fresh off the boat from Europe, it is the hope he can escape his past. For his cousin, Roman, it is the vision that together they can find fortune in Liberty City, gateway to the land of opportunity.As they slip into debt and are dragged into a criminal underworld by a series of shysters, thieves and sociopaths, they discover that the reality is very different from the dream. In a city that worships money and status, life is heaven for those who prosper and a living nightmare for those who don't. Developed by the superstar designers at Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto IV continues the exciting legacy of the Grand Theft Auto franchise.

Great game

Overall I think GTA4 is mostly a good game the only reason I give it a 5 star rating is for the story mode. Other than that the graphics are a "been there done that" kinda feel to them. They don't really ever push the PS3 to it's limits like COD4 or GT5 prologue does. The dualshock 3 makes this game that much more interesting. DS3 adds something missing from most games depth and a sense of being there. I love the minimal load screens (you can goto any building thats interactive and just walk into or out of it) The mission load screens are unadvoidable. Just a little side note: this game takes a HUGE chunk of HDD space (5 gigs) so have little to nothing on the HDD before installing gta4.
The helicopter flying leaves something to be desired such as a joystick accessory for the ps3 (you know just like a pc one) It is really hard to fly one of those things. The sixaxis controls are goofy and might as well be turned off. I was mostly let down with the graphics more than anything.
What's great about it: Storyline, ONLINE, Open World, New locals, No building load times just mission loads.
What's not so great: graphics are dated, some minor bugs with online service

THE SIMS 3 on ps3...
July 16, 2010
It is about time, now if they offer the base game AND world adventures, it will seal the deal for me.. but either way I will LOVE to play TS3 on a huge screen without the distortion the pc's DVI to HDMI does.. I love the fact this game is finally releasing, while October is a ways off, I don't mind... I want it to be a bug free game... If we can have full online access to the TS3 store and a virtual EA Download manager and or a game launcher menu to sort downloads, this would absolutely seal the deal..

Sackboy is back in an action-packed adventure that puts you in pant-wetting peril. Sackboy may have successfully returned sharing to LittleBigPlanet but a larger threat now looms. When an 1,800-watt vacuum cleaner appears in the sky over Sackboy, he finds himself sucked into an adventure bigger than he could have imagined. Saved from the musty interior of The Sucker by Larry Da Vinci, Sackboy finds himself face-to-face with the head of The Alliance. This semi-secret, semi-organized group is wholly focused on destroying The Sucker before it destroys them. Can you help them in their quest to save the Cosmos, or will your home face the ultimate cleaning?LittleBigPlanet 2 lets you unleash your imagination with even more options to create than ever before. Develop whole games with the enhanced Popit, digital puppetry, cinematic and circuit board tools. As you animate Sackbots, you choose their style, shape, size, clothing and purpose. You are in charge of developing your own friends, foes and more as you add life to your levels. Produce a movie, level or entire game and share it with friends via the online portal where you can try out more than two million user-generated creations.

Follow the intriguing storyline as Sackboy as you once again struggle to save the world, this time in more than 50 whimsical levels. Barrel through with all-new powerups, including a grappling hook, bounce pads and more. With an exciting storyline and the power to create your own worlds of gaming fun, LittleBigPlanet 2 helps you develop your dreams, no matter how big.

It will probably be better than the 1st, AMAZING!!
By GunnerH1992
When I got the first game, the cashier @ Best Buy reassured me that it was a really awesome game. Everyone will want to play it! I was skeptic, of course... But obviously I really enjoyed it. My friends and I constantly laugh the whole way through the game! Especially when we back hand each other, and see us flying across the screen, down to our little sack boy deaths.... Priceless! The game looks basic, but you can do soo much in it!!! Looking forward to the next installment!

Is there anyone with the BETA??
October 25, 2010
I want real feedback from a BETA user... I want a good in depth preview from someone that really has LBP2 beta, and if you want post your PSN.. I have seen too many LBP2 videos, but NOTHING will compare to the full game... I hope to GOD they make this sequel FULL 1080p.. I just got a new HDTV, I wanna use it until the screen dies from playing LBP2 too much.. I can't say how excited I am about this game.. I hope the delay is 100% justified, I have heard that the online is still buggy, I need them to fix that asap.. I am playing LBP almost everyday...
