If you like story based games this is great. Besides the story you can freely web on the buildings to go wherever you want! Learning the buttons takes a long time as there's many button combos to learn as you go through stories and beating up burglers, enemy's and bosses. The graphics are wow on this game real as ever.

I'd say it's a second best Spider-Man movie after the ones made by Tobey McGuire. It's odd that the actor is so young though. Tons of craziness and learning in this movie. But the only lame part is only one villan.

12 months PS Plus $60 is the lowest to pay for a year. It's always good, 2 free games a month for PS3, 2 free for PS4, 2 free for Vita. Although Vita production will end in 2019. Just $60 dollars for 6 free games a month, that's 72 free games for a year!

Great but not the best

Verified Purchase:Yes
It comes with great games like Super Mario Bros 123 as well as Donkey Kong, Kirby, and others. There's a filter option. Saving was confusing at first. But to save hit reset button and than go down to savings blocks and hold A until your saved block screezes into a save block. Every game can have 4 save slots. Pretty good but half of them are boring games.

5 out of 5GREAT affordable TV for Xbox One X 4K gaming!
By Eric
I went in on Black Friday to purchase this TV for 249.99 along with an Xbox One X. I was debating whether or not to purchase this one or the Samsung 43" UHD 4K which was going for 299.99. When I asked the sales rep what he recommended he said "Samsung, you will hate the TCL its very low quality".
I compared the two and found that both are extremely similar in specs. The reason that I purchased the TCL over the Samsung is that this TV offers Dolby Digital which enhances the audio and picture quality for more vibrant and accurate colors.
Differences I noticed:
-TCL 5 Series offers Dolby Digital / Samsung UHD does not.
-TCL 5 Series HDR10 / Samsung UHD HDR10+
-TCL 5 Series 8W speakers / Samsung UHD 10W speakers.
-TCL 5 Series Dual-core processor / Samsung 4K UHD processing chip.
-TCL 5 Series offers Dolby Digital / Samsung UHD does not.
-TCL 5 Series HDR10 / Samsung UHD HDR10+
-TCL 5 Series 8W speakers / Samsung UHD 10W speakers.
-TCL 5 Series Dual-core processor / Samsung 4K UHD processing chip.
For a $50 dollar difference I didn't mind a slightly lower sound as I have this TV in my bedroom. I am not sure if the Samsung processing chip is better that the dual-core processor in the TCL, but I haven't noticed any lag or blur when playing games or watching video content.
My 4K games from my Xbox look absolutely amazing on this TV. While I'm sure that there are far more superior TVs on the market, I am truly impressed by the detail and picture quality that this has been providing for the price I paid.
**Just note that if you do purchase this TV for use on your Xbox One X, you will need to set the HDMI mode to 2.0 in the Settings on the TV. I was wondering why my Xbox was saying my TV wasn't compatible with several features, but once I changed the HDMI mode I had full compatibility.
Dave
Even more great things
January 10, 2020
I found the TCL 43S525 has better contrast, color ratio, and Dolby Vision. Dolby Vision is HDR12. Right now Amazon video and some other services support HDR12 dolby vision. Plus that the Samsung has edge lit meaning the edges of the TV have backlight. The TCL has direct lit meaning full back of TV lighting. Overall the TCL is better in those 4 details. Better contrast, better color, has dolby vision and has direct back light for better black levels. I studied this at rtings

5 out of 5Love every single thing about it!
By StimpJ
Every single thing about this TCL 43S525 tv is awesome. Picture quality for the price is beyond superb. Audio seems good even though I don't really turn the built in speakers up very loud. Easy setup right from the get go with simple to figure out settings. As well as ease of use of the Roku UI and other apps which is a huge bonus if you don't want to deal with a lot of nonsense. The remote is nothing particularly special (having the volume controls on the side is slightly annoying) but still it does the job fine. Honestly I can't find much at all that I don't like about this tv. The 43" inch is perfect for my bedroom setup. The screen looks seriously huge and I'm glad I didn't go for the bigger 55" inch one which would have been overkill.
The tv was flawless out of the box (bought in store at local Best buy) with no damages and everything is working perfectly. I've only had the tv for a few days so I can't attest much to the longevity value, but for the moment I couldn't be any happier about my purchase. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for the best tv to buy in this price range.

Got back the wrong TV to review
January 12, 2020
In reviews like rtings the TCL got the 2nd best contrast, but it got the best color gamut, the best color accuracy, and the color uniformity. It's also the best at HDR gaming and HDR movies. It has direct back lit lights for the best black uniformity as well. Overall in tests it reaches the highest number of wins in categories. Setting up is super easy, it guides you through it all. Dolby Vision aka HDR12, HDR10, contrast, color! Great for video gaming!

5 out of 5Fast and great PC!
By Dave
Camera built in and it's really fast. No slow downs with SSD. No trouble at all so far. It's working like a charm. Windows start menu works fast, had some trouble with the internet, but little did I know I connect with my network and password it goes fast. I tried just straight ethernet and it was slow. It is going faster with secure password protection. I also love the new 20H2 Windows 10 update. Opening control panel to settings to file explorer, opening browsers, changing wallpaper background, it's all fast and easy to do.

Thanks for reporting how bad the Switch lite is. It's saving me from purchasing one. All I hear is the battery doesn't last long, the thumb pads drift, the screen comes out. Just horrible from Nintendo.

5 out of 5Awesome PC!
By CarlC
I love this computer! Everything has worked flawlessly. I bought this on the flash sale for $2800 dollars! Such a great purchase. I will upgrade the ram at later date but for now it’s fine. I use this computer strictly for gaming and the 3080ti is awesome. I’ve had very stable frame rates and the gpu temps haven’t gone above 75 Celsius! If your looking at this computer it’s great value for what you get. Also the case looks better in person! Will post some pictures. What you see is what you get!

I bought a cyberpowerpc from microsoft and never got any display on monitor. I don't want that to happen again. Did you get display of Windows up right away after plugging the PC in and turning it on? Because I'm not a tech guy. I want it to just work right out of the box, plug it in.

1 out of 5STAY AWAY
By Ryan
I want to preface that I was given all the help possible from Best Buy and I really appreciate the effort given from the employees at my location, but this PC was a disaster. First time I ordered this PC everything looked great, the system looked clean, flashy, nice gpu, parts all looked correct and in solid fashion. Then once I downloaded my games everything went downhill... All of my games downloaded perfectly fine and were running smoothly and looking great, then the games kept freezing and shutting off. In an effort to resolve the problem I bought 16gbs of ram and swapped them out, which ended up making no difference at all. I ended up returning the system and we ordered a new one hoping that it was a rare case and the system was just faulty. This is where the second problem occurred. This time when I picked up the PC and brought it home, I opened a box with a bigger mess than before. The PC now had a dent in the top right corner, several plastic screws were broken within the system, the power cord wasn't even provided, and when I used another power cord I had laying around my office and plugged it in, the rgb on the fans didn't even work. I was very disappointed with this product and would not advise anyone to buy from cyberpower. I even tried to call the cyberpower tech support and was on hold for an hour just for them to tell me that I had to return the PC again. Bad experience overall.

I recomend
March 31, 2022
I've dealt with PCs since 2005. Windows is the major problem. Doesn't matter if you buy CyberPower, iBuyPower, HP, Dell, Alienware, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, anyone else. Windows 10 code is leaked. Windows has given me errors for directx, errors on whatever, BSOD, BlackSOD, freezes, crashes, random restarts. After 18 years of using Windows PCs I'm done with them once and for all. Microsoft using the same code structure since the beginning of Windows 95 is just horrible. It's starting to show how bad x86, x64 Windows code structure is. Switch to Mac and finally you'll have a computer without all these errors and crashes. As a gamer I recommend sticking with consoles.

1 out of 5Do not buy from ibuypower. Nothing but problems!
By EDX1987
I bought this less than 20 days ago and pretty much the whole time it has frozen on me daily. On top of this, it takes such a long time to get to from power on to desktop, despite having an NVME SSD, compared to my 8 year old laptop that takes roughly 12 seconds. This thing is unacceptable, if you're going to buy a prebuilt, buy from a different company, seriously.

I love this controller i use it all the time. Outside the color the software was confusing but once i realized i switch it to advance mode to use the software it was easygoing
Dave
Yes took time for me too
June 17, 2023
When you turn it to advance you can choose from one of the profiles created. If you want to make your own profile you will have to replace one of the original 4. I created my own FPS style, it's basically the same as there FPS style, but I disabled the back buttons. You can by making your custom profile with NA for the back buttons and anything else. You have to use Windows to use the software of course for it that it says to download. It's awesome.

What is the highest frame rate possible with this computer?
With the Nvidia 3060 GPU card I can achieve up to 240 FPS at 720p on old games from 2010 and sooner. Most games these days get 60 to 120 FPS at 1440p as I am using this computer right now with a 1440p LG Nvidia G-sync monitor.

How is the cooling? it doesn't seem like it has too much airflow I don't know.
I've personally owned this product for 2 months now and I don't get any overheating. I have the computer on maybe 5 hours a day, play games, surf the internet, and I don't get any over heating issues once so ever.

According to the product it comes with windows 11, but a reviewer said it has a windows 10. Which one is it? does it have a windows 10 or 11 preinstalled? Does the windows 11 come with and you have to install it?
I have bought and own this product and am typing on it right now to answer this and conclude it comes with Windows 11 pre-installed and ready for use to set up for a brand new user.

Yes. HDMI on the monitor is limited to 120 FPS however, that is the only limitation. You have to adjust for the frame rate in system display settings always. It only goes to 144 FPS in display port attachment.
