Beautiful animation...

Verified Purchase:Yes
For the first time, Disney and Pixar characters and their universes are brought to life in a beautiful CGI like game that is just as good as the Ratchet and Clank remake by Insomniac Games for PS4. This game is a wonderful tribute to all things Disney, and a fantastic close to the Kingdom Hearts Trilogy!

Great game and an insanely difficult final boss...
on January 1, 2020
Posted by: JABL
Verified Purchase:Yes
From Software explored their Dark Souls franchise by pushing the boundaries in two different directions. Bloodborne was the game where they made offense essential to the gameplay. In Sekiro, the designers created the game under the premise that people learn how to block/parry effectively to gain the upper hand. The game is absolutely beautiful, set in Japan, and has wonderfully designed bosses that are all majestic to look at! Strongly recommended, and it's GOTY 2019 by many reviewers!

The lighting in this movies is AMAZING...

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought John Wick 3 on 4K Blu-Ray specifically b/c of the lightening. I have the first two on regular Blu-Ray but the lighting of the city, and environments truly makes this movie come alive. Get this version if you love the John Wick Series! Can't wait for JW4 in 2021!!!

Move with stealth through the sprawling devastated city of The Surge 2 for Xbox One. With new enemies and bosses lurking around to attack, you can choose from a vast arsenal of weapons for slashing and tearing unforgiving combat play. The Surge 2 is a fast-paced hardcore action RPG with a unique story and improved level design.

Great game!!!
on January 1, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Surge 2 builds on what made the first game great! Creative Dark Souls like combat in a future universe. The twist is you can cut off enemies armor and weaponry and use it for your own! The environments are much more open than the first game giving a lot of variety and much more beautiful scenery. Strongly recommend this if you were a fan of the first game and Dark Souls/Lords of the Fallen!!

Much better build quality than Series 1
on January 1, 2020
Posted by: JABL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I returned my Series 1 multiple times to Microsoft for grips that kept falling off. I bought Series 2 and am glad they fixed all the mistakes made with the first edition. This model has a built in battery that lasts over 35 hours on a single charge (Been playing Borderlands 3 with it since Christmas) and the grips are no longer glued but a part of the controller itself. It's more expensive than Series 1, but that's because of the amazing built in battery. Strongly recommended if you're a hard core gamer that plays a ton!

A very different type of game...
on January 1, 2020
Posted by: JABL
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you're into story driven games, this is up your alley. The gameplay is different than what people who are fans of Kojima's MGS series may be expecting. But the graphics are gorgeous - utilizing photogrammetry to make a virtual-Iceland-like environments. Recommended for people who like to be surprised! I found the gameplay to be very zen compared to the normal action/adventure RPG. It was nice to unwind while playing this game. The obstacles come from figuring out how to reach a destination and overcoming natural environments. It's very different, but it is also very good!

A divisive title, but the best Star Wars yet imo!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Rian Johnson got a lot of flack for this movie, but it isn't deserved imo. It takes the tropes of all the past Star Wars movies, and turns them on their head, giving us something new while exploring who Rey and Ben really are and their place in the Galaxy. It's a fearless film that isn't afraid to take chances and it pays off many times over!

This won numerous GOTY awards for a reason

This game is AMAZING. It takes Kratos, an angry 1-dimensional caricature of anger in all the prior games and gives him depth, and makes him an empathetic character. The story is full of heart as it tells the tale of the travels of Kratos and his son as they wander the Norse mythology, and reveal hidden secrets and dark powers that rule that land. The best game on PS4 along with Horizon Zero Dawn in my opinion. Make sure you play both!

Get this game for the traversal...
on January 21, 2019
Posted by: JABL
from Orange County, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the definitive Spider-Man game since it's release. It's that good. The traversal across NYC feels fantastic, which is no surprise coming from Insomniac who also created Sunset Overdrive on Xbox which shares many of the same traversal mechanics. The Open World is generations old now, almost like early Assasin's Creed 1-3 days, which is a bad and good thing. It's simple and fun, but it feels like a checkbox of things to do across the city which can be a burden when all you really want to do is travel all around virtual Manhattan helping everyone as your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. A must play! :)

A nice surprise result of the Turing test...

This was a great movie, especially for computer science graduates, as it explores what makes a robot self-aware? The twists and turns are delightful, and the characters are hilarious at times, depraved in others, and yet all believable. It's funny to think the two main actors also play enemies in the Star Wars films lol...

Unlike traditional, circular earbuds, the design of the EarPods is defined by the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other earbud-style headphones. The speakers inside the EarPods have been engineered to maximize sound output and minimize sound loss, which means you get high-quality audio. The EarPods with Lightning Connector also include a built-in remote that lets you adjust the volume, control the playback of music and video, and answer or end calls with a pinch of the cord.
 

canthis work with Mac

No, it’s a lightning connector which is only on iPhones and some iPads

Charge your Nintendo Switch during travel with this 20,100mAh Anker PowerCore power bank. It recharges your handheld game console 2.5 times, providing 15 hours of extended play time, and it has a standard USB port for charging another gadget. Fully recharge this Anker PowerCore power bank in three hours thanks to its Power Delivery USB-C port. (20100 mAh is the total of the nominal rated capacity of internal battery cells )
 

Are you able to bring these on an airplane?. I have an international flight and I’d like to be able to play the switch to pass time

I think so - I brought it with me on a flight to NY. One thing to let you know though, this item does not come with a wall outlet plug to charge the battery. You'll have to buy another USBC wall outlet separately, or buy the other Anker version that comes with a wall outlet charger that isn't Nintendo branded for approximately the same price.
