When I first watched this on television I didn't care much about it. Now I realized how much I've missed out. At first the castings seem a bit awkward, but as you progress through the story you get more comfortable with the crew. Later, the father (Danny Devito) gets involved in the story and the humor just gets better and better. What I liked about this sitcom is that the humors are not over exaggerated to the point it feels dull. Overall, this is a keeper for good laughs.
What's great about it: great casting, very funny
What's not so great: some humor kids shouldn't watch

I bought this to save some space on my PlayStation 2 memory card and I also saved money by doing this. I would've bought another memory card, but I decided to save myself $10 and use my PlayStation 3 to hold onto the game files I do not use, but cannot delete because of the numerous hours spent. My memory cards are all product of Sony, so I cannot guarantee that it'll work with other products. Overall, it does what it needs to do... transfer.
What's great about it: transfers saved games from memory card(s)
What's not so great: may not work with non-Sony memory cards

Movie night is even better when you equip your living room with this home theater system that features 1200 watts of audio power. 1080p upconversion through the HDMI connector enhances the visual beauty of your multimedia.534.99

My goal was to buy an affordable home theater system for watching movies. I did not care much about sound because I don't need insanely loud speakers. After some use, it has proven itself worthy. The set up took less than 20 minutes. The speakers are loud and the sound is clear. I love the wireless rear speakers because I don't have to worry about covering any cables running from the front to rear. The 5 disc changer is convenient. My only problem would be with the audio ports. It does not have enough ports to hook up other systems. But, changing the cables isn't a hard task, so it's no big deal. And for those of you wondering, you can hook up your game systems with this surround system.
What's great about it: great sound, 5 disc dvd, wireless rear speakers
What's not so great: needs more ports

This game is the main reason why I bought the Xbox360, despite it being overrated. I was not in a rush to buy the game, because I thought I was going to play nonstop. Alas, the moment of truth has arrived. Unfortunately, it was not as great as I thought. The game turned out to be a polished version of Halo 2. It features a couple new weapons, and the button control is slightly different. I bought the game, mainly, to play the campaign (to "finish the fight"). From the looks of it, I see a possibility for Halo 4, but we'll see when the time comes. Online multiplayer is decent. It has new maps, and character customization. Other than these... enjoy what you have enjoyed in Halo 2.
What's great about it: great graphics, good storyline
What's not so great: not much different

SynopsisContinue the legendary mad hoops action in NBA 2K8, featuring New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul on the cover. Now in its ninth year, the series presents extreme on-the-court excitement and the intensity found only in the realm of the NBA. Sport your gravity-defying moves from city to city in Dunk Contest challenges, where only the baddest and the best can unlock new dunks, props and players in multiplayer and online modes. Keep the screaming crowds interested or say goodbye to your career. The groundbreaking Signature Style feature returns, this time with hundreds of new shooting, dribbling and passing animations. Change the playing style of your favorite team members and create custom moves and dunk packages to send the fans into a frenzy. Control players all over the court to call for alley-oops, jostle for post position and set screens. Scoring isn't the only consideration; new defensive controls enable you to play tighter defense on the ball handler and run other defensive sets that shut down the offense. For additional thrills, up to six players can compete in the NBA 3-Point Shootout.

The last basketball game I bought was back in 1998, and now 10 years later I decided to give it a try. The game play is smooth, but it takes awhile to get used to. For instance, free throws using the SIXAXIS is a bit troublesome, but you can change that to analog stick. Managing your team's roster and chemistry makes the game very fun and competitive. Online leagues are fun only if you join a serious league. Otherwise, prepare for a LONG season. My only complaint would be the menu. Trying to navigate through the menu gets annoying and it's uncomfortable.
What's great about it: amazing graphics (on hdtv), online league, signature moves
What's not so great: navigating through menu

The game has real life weapons that a special force would use, giving a sense of realism. Also, the graphics and storyline are great. However, actual game play is a bit short, and the game ends in a cliffhanger. But, this is where the online feature makes up for it. There are many types of play such as death match, and terrorist hunt. As you play more online, you'll gain enough experience to advance through the ranks, unlocking new gears. Only complaint would be the AI because at some point, they tend to clump together and come towards you with no tactics, making it easy kills.
What's great about it: good graphics, great storyline, fun online
What's not so great: weak AI at some point

Learn more about Resistance: Fall of Man. (Flash demo) For decades, populations across Europe and Asia have felt the fury of Chimera: a rapidly mutating parasite that infects other forms of life, rendering its victims into new Chimera. The unstoppable spread of this deadly disease has made its way to the shores of England in Fall of Man. It's now 1951, and while playing the part of U.S. Army Ranger Nathan Hale, you must fight alongside a group of British resistance soldiers in a last-ditch effort to free England and the rest of the world from the stranglehold of this ruinous plague.Exotic weapons and vehicles team with proprietary physics to create a unique human and Chimeran arsenal. While on your mission, you'll encounter lifelike characters and creatures who display sophisticated behaviors and interactions in complex environments for an immersive experience. You'll be subjected to the chaos of large, crowded battlefields in close combat within infested military command centers and decimated urban landscapes based on actual locations in Great Britain.

The game setting is after WWII. The chimeras started of in Russia and started expanding. This is where you come in and kick some butt. Straight from the start, the game goes through intense actions. It is easy to pick up, and the storyline is interesting to follow. The co-op campaign is fun, and it seemed harder than single player, even in the same difficulty. The cut scenes are in black and white to give it the old texture. Online multiplayer is fun to play as well. I'm not a competitive person when it comes to video games, but if you are, then you'll enjoy playing in ranked games. You have your typical capture the flag, free for all death match, and team death match. These seem like the most favorite among all first person shooters. My only complaint is selecting weapons. At some point you'll have so much weapons and trying to select the weapon with the analog stick doesn't quite work the way you want. Also, you automatically end up using whatever weapon you pick, which gets annoying because you have to switch weapons.
What's great about it: great graphics, original storyline, fun online
What's not so great: selecting weapons

I bought to game awhile back. The game has great graphics like most current generation games. It also has plenty of action and good co-op campaign. I have never finished the game, however. I bought the game because of the hype at school, played it for 2-3 days, and never played since. It's not a bad game, it's just that, to me, the game did not keep up to all its hype and put down my urge to play. In the game, you have plenty of weapons to use, the co-op is unique. At some points in the game, you and your friend would have to split up taking different routes, I thought that was pretty cool. Also, the "finishing moves" when you verse a friend was original. I would recommend to others tho, just because I didn't like it doesn't make the game bad.
What's great about it: good graphics, plenty of action
What's not so great: just a phase in gaming need
