In the Comedy Hall of Fame
on November 20, 2021
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
Superbad remains in the pantheon of all-time classic comedy movies, all these years later. Some of the jokes may be a bit crude in today's era, but almost all of them hit for its intended audience. The character of McLovin is still one of the most iconic movie roles of the 21st century, and Cera and Hill's characters complement him very well. The Blu-ray disc itself is very solid for being an early Blu-ray release, with dozens of worthwhile extras and good picture/sound. If you catch this in the Best Buy bargain bin for $5-$10, don't hesitate grabbing it off the shelf just to add to your movie collection!

Best Version of 101 Dalmatians You Can Get
on October 20, 2021
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Signature Collection Blu-ray copy of 101 Dalmatians is an amazing version of the Disney classic. The picture and audio quality is about as good as you can get for roughly 60 year old movie, and the disc is loaded with a bunch of interesting bonus features for those super into the film. Add in a digital copy and a spare DVD, and this is a great package, particularly if you are a collector keen on owning the movie rather than just streaming it on Disney+. Especially at sale price, this is a smart buy for fans of 101 Dalmatians.

Snap like you mean it!
on October 4, 2021
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
New Pokemon Snap is a return for the dormant 21 year old Pokemon Snap spinoff series, and what a return it is! Fans of Pokemon have waited years for a true sequel to the original, quirky Snap N64 game, and this Switch sequel does not disappoint, for the most part. It is amazing to see so many true to size Pokemon (over 200 across all 8 generations) in their real life habitats, coexisting and interacting with other Pokemon. Using the camera to take pictures, throwing fluffruit and illumina orbs, scanning, and using the Pokeflute, brings back memories of the N64 game, while still remaining engaging enough for newcomers. The game is overflowing with content (as well as supported by a free DLC drop) and the chase to catalogue each Pokemon and complete requests to get pictures of crazy Pokemon behaviors is truly exciting and satisfying. My one qualm about New Pokemon Snap is the lack of Pokemon evolutions (like in the original); if you're an old school fan returning for the nostalgia, you might miss these, but it's not a game breaker. Whether you are a new or old fan of Pokemon, if you are looking for something different and unique outside of the standard catch and battle 'em all, New Pokemon Snap has you covered. There's truly nothing else like it in the franchise.

Super-Sized Mario Fun
on July 28, 2021
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
Whether you've played them 10 times over, or never before, the Super Mario games contained in this compilation are well worth the price of admission - this is one of the best deals on Switch. Contained within this package are the first 3 3D Super Mario games: the pioneering Super Mario 64, the eccentric Super Mario Sunshine, and the dazzling Super Mario Galaxy (at last saved from its Wii-era purgatory). The best game of the package for players in 2021 is Galaxy, with its forgiving difficulty, simple mechanics, and all-around variety and fun. Sunshine is a bit of a mixed bag, and while it looks great on Switch (particularly in handheld mode), it has frustrating tropes held over from previous generations of gaming, and certain design decisions can be mind-numbing, especially if you plan to shoot for 120 stars. Super Mario 64 is overall much more enjoyable to play and complete than Sunshine, but its atrocious camera makes playing it a chore at times. If these games bring back fond memories, the epic nostalgia will blind you to any of these problems - I don't need to sell you on 3D All-Stars. If this is your first go-around, Galaxy alone is worth buying this package for. The only real downside to this collection is its lack of Super Mario Galaxy 2 - come on Nintendo!

Sackboy's Return is an Essential PS5 Platform
on April 13, 2021
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
Fans of the LittleBigPlanet franchise on PlayStation's stable of consoles and handhelds have been hoping for a new entry in the series for many years now, since the release on LBP 3 on the PS4. While this game is not exactly in the same vein as your standard LBP game, I'd argue it's just as good, if not better, stripping away the cumbersome "create" and "share" monikers, and focusing purely on the "play" aspect. Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a pretty standard platformer, taking what appears to be large inspiration from Super Mario 3D World, fusing together the whimsy and charm of old LBP games, with amazing handcrafted worlds that are a joy to play around in. The most unique aspect of Sackboy is the addition of musical levels, that is, levels which correspond and adapt to selected musical tracks. These levels are among the best in the game, and use sound in a way unlike most video games out there. With over five different worlds to explore, countless costumes to collect, and seamless drop-in/drop-out online and couch co-op, PS5 gamers who enjoyed the short but sweet Astro's Playroom pack-in game will have a great time with Sackboy. In an otherwise pretty quiet launch window for the PS5, Sackboy stands up with Spiderman: Miles Morales and Demon's Souls as a must-play PS5 game.

Pokémon Original Trilogy
on December 25, 2020
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Pokémon movie collection contains the first 3 classic Pokémon movies that started it all. The picture quality isn’t amazing, but they look much better on Blu ray than on DVD or even VHS. This collection does not contain the original Pikachu shorts that played at the start of each of these movies, which knocks this collection down a bit, but it’s still the best way to way these movies. Worth a buy especially on sale if you’re an OG Pokémon fan.

Biking in the Zombie Apocalypse
on December 2, 2020
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
Days Gone is a game that squanders some of its potential for greatness, but depending on your tastes, you may end up loving it or hating it. On its face, Days Gone is a relatively standard zombie game, with enemies called Freakers out in the beautiful open world of eastern Oregon. These enemies aren't anything amazing; however, the big draw here are the Freaker hordes, which provide a new, exciting challenge for anyone who's become bored with the endless zombie games of the past decade. Groups of 50-100 zombies running after you can give you a thrill that's unlike almost any game before. Your main method of transportation is your motorcycle, which plays into the story about a former member of a biker gang, trying to survive a pandemic-induced apocalypse with the help of his biker brother as he searches for his long lost wife. The bike is a unique item, and if you're okay with having to keep up its fuel levels and overall maintenance, you'll enjoy the challenge the bike provides in traversing the environment. The story has received mixed reviews, and if you are not enjoying it, you probably won't make it through the roughly 40 hour long game. I happened to really enjoy it, and it kept me captivated the whole way through, but it may not land right with others, so ymmv. Days Gone may not have the polish and refinement of a Last of Us, but if you are interested in an open-world zombie game, this might scratch your itch. I will also note that Days Gone has received a recent patch which apparently allows it to run much better on a PlayStation 5 console, so if you are in the market for a PS5 and skipped some of the PS4 generation, I highly recommend this game for your new console.

The Next Generation of Gaming
on December 2, 2020
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you are able to get your hands on a PlayStation 5, you will not regret it. Coming from a base PS4, the new console is a major step up. The main thing you will notice right away is just how fast it is in comparison to the PS4. Menus pop quick, the PlayStation Store is snappy, and best of all, most games take advantage of the new SSD, allowing them to boot up within seconds and take you right into the action. No more looking at your phone for minutes on end waiting for your game to start. With its ability to display at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second, games look better than ever and feel better than ever to play, particularly if you can get your hands on a 4K TV. The PS5 arguably has the best launch lineup of games available, especially when compared to past consoles and even the Xbox Series X. There's really something for everyone, from Spider-Man, to Sackboy, and even Demon's Souls. A few things to keep aware of: 1) This thing is huge, whether you lay it horizontal or prop it up vertically, 2) Storage space for the SSD is lacking, until we are able to add additional storage (which is not yet enabled), so I'd advise not filling up your SSD with every PS5/PS4 game you have (unless you have access to an external HDD for PS4 games), 3) Menus are simple but a bit cumbersome coming from the PS4 (some things are hidden, some require extra unnecessary button presses, and the layout for trophies is not great). Despite some flaws at the outset, the PlayStation 5 is more than worth the $400/$500 it costs if you are an avid gamer. The blazing fast SSD, the innovative controller, and the quality of life improvements make this system a much needed entry point into the next generation of video game consoles.

2K for the Next Generation
on November 23, 2020
Posted by: ndw4
Verified Purchase:Yes
After stagnating for years on current gen hardware, NBA 2K21 is a return to form for the series, even if micro transactions continue to be prevalent across the game. 2K21 looks downright amazing on the PS5, and the attention to detail is unmatched in a 2K game, from the coaches, to the crowd, to the accuracy of the arenas. The gameplay takes full advantage of the DualSense's haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, and although there are still a few kinks that need to be worked out, these new features really serve to compliment the more realistic style of play. MyCareer as always is hit or miss, but if you're big into online play in the park (or city, now), there's enough there for you to enjoy. MyTeam continues to be a time and money sink, and has evolved a bit into a seasonal game mode (like every other GaaS), but again there's enough content to keep you busy for months. MyLeague remains unmatched, and that mode coupled with the amazing gameplay makes 2K21 an easy early purchase for your brand new PS5.
