Still Going Strong a Decade Later
on December 29, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
While it's extremely sad sacrifices had to be made to the graphics of a game that came out over a decade ago on a system two generations behind us, but such is the state of the 3DS. At least the lack of 3-D is due to hardware limitations, not developer laziness or a personal, misguided choice of the lead designer. It's worth it to have the game on the go, and not have to mess with AV cords and a display that takes up about a third of your HD TV display. There are some other additions to make the deal sweeter - two new playable characters, rebalanced spells, new cutscenes, voice actors where previously there were none, and the ability to bank skill points rather than use them right away (but still no ability to reset them). Highly recommended, whether you're experiencing this for the first time, or have beaten it numerous times on the PS2,

Tap this Nintendo Mipha amiibo, and receive exciting in-game extras when you play Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The collectible figurine looks great on a shelf, but it holds exciting secrets when you use it in the game. This Nintendo Mipha amiibo figure is a replica of the battle-worthy Zora Champion.

Nice looking Amiibo
on December 29, 2017
Posted by: Rich

Verified Purchase:Yes
I enjoy collecting these, and leave them in their packages, so I can't comment on the in-game interactivity, if any exists. What I can say is that this is one of the nicest looking amiibos, with a lot of small details, like the intricate jewelry she is adorned with, and an ornamental trident that looks equally nice.

An excellent movie!
on December 1, 2017
Posted by: Rich
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
Hope exists for the ailing D.C. franchise, in the guise of Wonder Woman. A wonderful film, hobbled by occasionally nonsensical motivations, such as Diana's mother not wanting her daughter to learn to fight. The action sequences are awesome, but there are not as many as the previews suggest. It's more of a character film. Good chemistry between Gadot and Pine, and an ending that would be a lot better if another film hadn't come earlier and done it first. Still highly recommended.

Classic arcade action combines with modern 3-D fighting environments to deliver the ultimate punch-'em-up fighter in Tekken 7. Outstanding battle mechanics and awesome combo moves let you trash the opposition in one-on-one battles. Over 30 characters are available from fan favorites to brand-new warriors all with unique fighting styles in Tekken 7.

More Tekken
on December 1, 2017
Posted by: Rich
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
Another installment in the Tekken series. Everything you love about past installments is back, with a whole slew of unlockables that allow you to play mix and match to an even greater degree than the 6th installment did. Graphics are better than ever, though it's hard to notice fine details at fighting distance. My only complaint are the paid DLC. Not only characters, but clothing options. The random unlockables are also annoying, as it takes a long time to get what you want unlocked. Still, it's a lot of fun, unless you didn't like past installments. If that is the case, there's nothing that switches things up enough to change your mind. .

A Great Game with a Major Flaw
on August 9, 2017
Posted by: Rich
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
Crash is almost exactly what I wanted it to be - a remake of the original trilogy with updated graphics. They even went the extra mile and added further improvements and features from the later games, such as the unlockable time trials in all games (previously only available in the third game), the ability to play as Koko in all the games (with new and unique animations created for this game) and the removal of the awful save system of the first game. The graphics, while I doubt they push the PS4 to the max, have a lot of detail, and even drab, boring levels in the original games are made interesting here. The one problem? The physics system. The developers took the physics system from part three (because it was the most recent) and used that as the basis for all three games. This means that, while tweaks to the jumps were made in each individual title, the first two titles now require even greater precision than the originals demanded. Considering how maddeningly hard some of the levels were in the original Crash, this has made the game that much more frustrating. 1/3 of Crash 3 also consists of boring vehicle levels, but this is a fault of the original developers, and a faithful recreation would have to retain this flaw. Overall, if you can live with the jumping issues, liked the originals, and crave a challenge like they had in the old days, then give this a try.

A great alternative to Spider-Man
on February 14, 2015

from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you only buy one character to play with in your Spider-Man play set, make it this one. He has (or can be upgraded to have) Spider-Man's abilities, including web-slinging. His symbiote-based attacks are fun, and powerful. Pretty nice figure, too.

Takes the Mario formula and mixes it up, not only introducing the expected new outfits, but mixes things up with the new Galalxy gameplay! One of the few first-party Wii classics still available. A definite must have!

![Boardwalk Empire: The Complete Fourth Season [Blu-ray]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/304b2327-370a-41e7-956a-951dd4939472.png)
Season 4 of the Prohibition-era drama opens in February 1924 as Nucky (Steve Buscemi) makes peace with New Yorkers Masseria (Ivo Nandi) and Rothstein (Michael Stuhlbarg), moves into the abandoned Albatross Hotel and, coincidentally, spreads his wings with a potential real-estate bonanza in Florida, where he's smitten with a saucy barkeep (Patricia Arquette). Back in Atlantic City, Chalky (Michael K. Williams) runs the boardwalk's Onyx Club, though the mysterious Harlem intellectual Dr. Narcisse (Jeffrey Wright) challenges his North Side reign, and Eddie (Anthony Laciura) finally gets a promotion. In Philadelphia, Eli's son Willie (Ben Rosenfield) dives in over his head at college; while in the Midwest, Nelson (Michael Shannon) pulls double duty for Chicago mobsters Capone (Stephen Graham) and O'Banion (Arron Shiver), and a wandering Richard (Jack Huston) reconnects with his roots. With Shea Whigham, Brian Geraghty, Ron Livingston, Margot Bingham, Anatol Yusef and Domenick Lombardozzi.

Another Excellent Season
on January 1, 2015
Posted by: Rich
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
While it lacks the greatness of Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones, it's still another winner in the HBO historical series. Honestly, I think they made a big mistake bringing the Darmondy affair to an end in the second season. It should have been a series- wide arc culminating in the final season, with James and the rest scheming to betray and undermine Nucky, and the latter slowly getting onto them, until it all comes clear. Still, it is what it is, and while Season 3's war against Gyp Rosetti seemed more like a one-off excursion, something bigger is brewing this season. Fan Favorites Chalky White and Richard Harrow feature heavily, and the always good Jeffrey Wright joins the cast as a seemingly civilized intellectual who reveals himself to have a very dark side, and Michael Shannon's former FBI agent turned fugitive goes in some promising directions. Just a preamble for the next and last season, but don't miss it.

Never Good, but Better Now that Future Past is Out
on January 1, 2015
Posted by: Rich
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
Days of Future Past is about undoing what happens in this movie; in other words, making sure it doesn't exist. Yep, it's the weakest entry in the series proper, but it does continue several threads, and provides most of Wolverine's motivation for his solo adventures and the rest of the series up to Days. Flawed, but still essential for those who want the whole stories.

This is it!

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an entertaining series, and it's sad to see it end, but what a finish! Now, the revolting slaves have to go against the richest and most powerful man in Rome! The previous seasons set records for violence and nudity, and it seems they wanted what few stops were left pulled for this one! Still a guilty pleasure, but also still tells a good story.
