I don't use services like this one, but it does what it was supposed to do and that was to use $20 towards shutterfly.

I was skeptical about purchasing a refurb hd, but the content on it being lost isn't important to me but paying less money is. I use it for my xbox one as an external hd to load games faster. It does have a little faster load times and like i said, I just save games on it so, if it goes bad I can easily reload the games on a new one and my progress is saved in the "cloud."

There is a learning curve to the product, you need to shake between pulsing salsa and other "chunky dips" or else you will end up with "Salsa Milkshake" but once I learned how to also cut the vegetables to the correct size, it started to really work for me!
The ease and convenience of use is fabulous. There is WAY less time spent washing dishes with this, and it is the perfect answer to "Pre-Dinner Munchies".....my favorite is to whip up salsa or guacamole while I make dinner! Whatever you make in it will taste SUPER fresh!

Amazing, Powerful movie!

This movie may have been controversial, but that is mainly because of its religious connection, especially its connection to Christianity, and because of it being so violent and vivid; but I feel it was necessary to portray how it really happened and how much Christ loved us that He would go through all that just for us who do not deserve it. It was a very emotional and very touching example of love and how we as human beings should be in this world of ours

Exciting and fun to watch! All I expected as an action film with enough humor to be fun as well. The special effects and stunts are awesome.

Modern Marvel of a game
on July 28, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Having not touched a FF game since FF-X (Since all the ones after that got destroyed in reviews, didn't waste my time/money...figured I'd leave the series on a high note), I was super apprehensive about jumping into this one, even though the preview content looked promising. Take into account the negative reviews from people such as "It looks like PS2 graphics" or "this absolutely awful"; didn't help make it easier. I bit the bullet, pre-ordered, got it on release day, and sat down to play it.
DOWNLOAD/INSTALL
The download/install took a while (51GB; 41GB on Disc, 10GB over network) but not as bad as something like GTA-V. Once downloaded it still had to install. It let me start the game at ~50% installed, and never had a problem after that.
COMBAT
Once installed, I started my adventure. The combat was a LITTLE hard to get used to for the first 5-10 minutes (I Highly recommend doing the 5-10 minute tutorial in the beginning, makes the start of the game go much smoother) as the controls aren't super "common" for combat games, but before I knew it, I wasn't even thinking about it anymore, and was pulling off nasty full-team combos on mobs and rares/bosses.
STORY
The story seems a little "off" to start with, but after about 1-2 hours it gets back on the rails and I found myself fully invested, and making conspiracies of my own on who's doing what and where and why...etc. I am excited to see where the story takes me next!
GRAPHICS
Ok, I'll start by saying, I'm playing on an XBOX One-S, on a 70" 4K TV. This game is beyond gorgeous. The cutscenes alone had me like "Holy, this is where we are with technology now?" Every little detail in the world is built with TLC, and it shows (Even the burn pattern on a piece of toast...seriously). I'm blown away. Whoever said this looks like PS2 graphics needs to go see an Optometrist and get their eyes checked and stop playing on a 90's Tube TV.
OVERALL 5/5
I'm about 9 hours in, and I'm enjoying every minute of it. If you're feeling on the fence about this, I hope my review has helped shine some light for you on this wonderful game and put to bed any doubts you may have. If it wasn't for me being at work today, I 100% would be hunkered down at home playing till I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore.

I've logged many hours into this game, it's beautifully crafted. Wish it was longer but it's broken up into "seasons" as lots of games are doing now. It has tons of replay value, for me at least. Looking forward to season 2. The graphics are top notch for next gen consoles, and the levels are great in size. I feel like it is a great purchase for fans of the original series, just straight forward assassinations peppered with mysterious backstory in between levels. Fun!

This game is amazing. First of all anyone who has followed DBZ since the beginning whether it be the original runs or the re-runs in the 90s will LOVE this game. Xenoverse and Xenoverse 2 are DBZ games that are the most unique of their kind because for once this is not just a DBZ game where you fight...This game enables you to create your own character from different classes (Majin, Frieza Race, Human or Sayain) and it allows you to use different moves from all the different characters throughout the Dragon Ball story. This is the first REAL Roleplaying game for the DBZ game series and Xenoverse 2 is the absolute best. Great gameplay through story mode and plenty of content and other battles through training and parallel quests (which is story mode style but not quite story mode) AND the online play is amazing. I definitely recommend this!

Do refurbished drives carry the same warranty from Samsung that come with the original? (I believe it's 5 years for the 850 EVO)

No. It's 90 days.
