When the success of your next quest hangs in the balance, or only one more hairpin turn stands between you and first place. When the clock is running out and your team must defend that flag at all costs, or the next combo attack could either be your greatest or your last. When the on-screen action is intense, nothing matters more to the success of your game than the relationship you have with the controller in your hands. The DualShock family of controllers has always brought you innovative features and precise control. The DualShock 4 is no different and brings an exciting array of additional features that are designed to usher your gaming experience into the next generation. With these additions, the DualShock 4 Controller becomes an extension of your brain, turning every move of your fingers into an accurate performance in the game ~ and in your hands, accurate performance can only mean victory.How gamers use a controller is being redefined right before our very eyes as the next generation of consoles also redefines many other aspects of gaming. The DualShock 4 controller is equipped with a multitouch touch pad on the face of the controller, opening up a new world of gameplay. The integrated light bar generates a rainbow of colors and works with your favorite games to enable innovative gaming experiences. The DualShock 4's share button lets you upload screenshots and video of epic gaming moments or live-stream sessions with your pals ~ with the press of a button. Besides all of the new innovations, the DualShock 4 controller improves features from past controllers, such as the feel, shape and sensitivity of the dual analog sticks and trigger buttons for enhanced control and a built-in speaker and stereo headset jack for flexible audio options. The future of gaming is now, and the features of this controller live up to the hype.

Nice lookin thing

The urban camo color helps differentiate my controller if I bring it to someone else's house. Otherwise it's exactly the same and has the standard little annoyance of the battery being super not-long. Wish that it didn't have a speaker or a light bar...

When you know someone has a PlayStation 3 or 4 and likes indie games, this is pretty much what you get them. This, or cash, I guess.

Needed a local splitscreen game--it does the job
on April 26, 2015
Posted by: uwshiva
Verified Purchase:Yes
The campaign isn't much to write home about. The story garnered quite a few exasperated sighs due to it being pretty dang predictable. For a CoD game, it's old enough now that I would expect the server activity to be waning, but as of late April 2015, it's still very easy to find matches via online multiplayer.
Something nice if you want to play a splitscreen shooter with a friend who doesn't own a PS4.

You are Talion, Ranger of the Black Gate. For what seems like eons, you have guarded the entrance to Mordor, keeping watch over Sauron's undisturbed dwelling place with relative uneventfulness. But in the blink of an eye, everything you hold dear is snatched from your grasp. Your family, your friends ~ even your very life is taken from you in one fell swoop that leaves your soul desolate and filled with an eternal rage. Resurrected by an unforgiving spirit, you have one purpose to your life, one thing that keeps your heart pumping and your mind from giving in to the relentless grief ~ vengeance. Prepare yourself to embark on a dogged vendetta that calls upon you to fight your way through Mordor and uncover the truth of the spirit who compels you. This epic tale of revenge and redemption transforms you into the most feared force in the land ~ the Shadow of Mordor.Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor delivers a dynamic game environment where the player orchestrates their personal plan of vengeance as they bend Mordor to their will. The game begins on the night of Sauron's return to Mordor, as his Black Captains brutally execute the Rangers of the Black Gate. Players become Talion, a ranger who loses his family and everything he holds dear, only to be returned from death by a mysterious Spirit of vengeance. Based on the player's actions with the in-game Nemesis System, every enemy encountered is distinct and can evolve to become a personal archenemy through the course of the game. As Talion's personal vendetta unfolds, players uncover the mystery of the Spirit that compels him, discover the origin of the Rings of Power and confront the ultimate nemesis.

It reminds me a lot of Assassin's Creed mixed with Batman Arkham stuff. Smooth gameplay, good ol' Tolkien lore--just all around fun. Plays very nicely on the PS4.

Great range of stuff to do.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a wonderful little 3DS game with hours and hours and hours of stuff to do in it. There are tons of options to choose from with your in game life, and you can change your class (what they call Life) whenever you want at a guild building. Great for anyone who wants tons of gameplay options and ways to play.
The main downfall: there is about 10 times more talking in this game than doing stuff. I have literally just sat there for actually 2 minutes at a time just mashing A to get through dialogue that is sometimes cute, but definitely not worth the stop in gameplay. It's pretty bad. Yet I still enjoy it, so that tells you how important the storyline is...

"Welp, I died again. There goes all my progress."
on March 31, 2015
Posted by: uwshiva
Verified Purchase:Yes
You'll be saying that quite a bit. And while you'll be angry and annoyed and spiteful, you'll keep playing the game. Because it's beautiful and wonderful and great. The online multiplayer makes the game--if you've ever played Dark Souls, it's the same sort of online system and it's the same sort of amazing fun. Instead of souls, you have "blood echoes" and they are the same experience/currency system that From Software has had in place. Very fun game, very challenging. There are a few bugs that I've run into, but nothing game-breaking on my end. I hear that there IS a game-breaking bug that will be fixed via an emergency patch in a week or two, but it seems like it's sort of hard to activate said bug. Still, if you want a more polished experience, wait a little bit longer for patches to come out and especially for the community to figure out what the heck is going on in-game, because From is notorious for not telling anyone anything. It's all on the onus of the community to discuss stuff in forums. I am not strong enough to play through From Software games without consulting the various wikis.
IMPORTANT CAVEAT: If you don't have Playstation Plus or an internet connection, I CANNOT recommend this game. It will turn into a total completely repetitive level grinding fest. I cannot imagine beating some of these bosses without help. My prediction is that it will not be fun, it will just be dying. The difficulty level is ruthless, but I still am in love with this game.

The Peach amiibo, while pretty plain compared to one like Bowser, is very nice. Nice for Mario Party 10, and nice to have sitting on the shelf with other Nintendo paraphernalia.

Amiibos are great

When Nintendo announced these things, I thought, "good grief--jumping on the Skylanders bandwagon." But, oh man, they're so nice just to have as decorations even if you don't use them a whole lot in gaming. The figurines are consistently a great quality, sturdy, and nice looking.
