The new direction that the GOW reboot series has gone in is nothing short of amazing. The graphics are legitimately stunning. Gameplay mechanics are incredible, sound is impeccable. If there's ever a reason to buy a PS5 if you can get your hands on one, this is it.

Perfect for playing games on Gamepass and indie games, which is all I've used it for thus far. Played High on Life on it via Gamepass and while some frame rate drops occurred, I experienced no major performance issues. Can't wait to play other Microsoft exclusives!

Chef's Kiss on top of a masterpiece
on September 27, 2021
Posted by: paulypofficial
I played Ghost when it came out on PS4 last summer. Great game, beautiful graphics and landscapes, one of my favorites from the last generation of consoles. I finally got my hands on a PS5 (not at Best Buy unfortunately) and the director's cut came with the bundle. I wasn't super excited at first tbh, but the refresh looks even more gorgeous and in 60 frames per second. The Dualsense adds another layer of immersion as well thanks to the adaptive triggers and upgraded haptics. Worth buying, whether you played the PS4 version or not!

In the late 13th century, the Mongol empire has laid waste to entire nations along their campaign to conquer the East. Tsushima Island is all that stands between mainland Japan and a massive Mongol invasion fleet led by the ruthless and cunning general, Khotun Khan. As the island burns in the wake of the first wave of the Mongol assault, samurai warrior Jin Sakai stands as one of the last surviving members of his clan. He is resolved to do whatever it takes, at any cost, to protect his people and reclaim his home. He must set aside the traditions that have shaped him as a warrior to forge a new path, the path of the Ghost, and wage an unconventional war for the freedom of Tsushima.

I just completed this game and wow, it is incredible. The setting and story is incredible and the graphics and artwork are contenders for the best on PS4. Combat is super fluid and really makes you feel like you're a samurai. SP exceeded my expectations.

No regrets

I debated buying a stand mixer for 2 years before finally caving 4 weeks ago. I got it on sale for $279.99, which is $100 less than MSRP. I was intimidated by the price but the build quality is incredible! I'm not worried about it breaking, even when I'm putting it on higher speeds for longer periods of time, and the COLOR is wonderful. It is as much as an art piece as it is a kitchen gadget. I highly recommend waiting for a sale and buying one if you make bread or any baked goods.

Great game that deserves its name
on July 1, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
I loved the Last of Us - it's one of the few games that felt so immersive and really made you connect to the characters. And honestly it ended well enough that I didn't think that it needed a sequel. But 20 minutes in I knew that it was the right move. Learning about Joel and Ellie's lives after the events of the first game felt so fluid, and getting to know a new character, Abby, and her motivations was also extremely interesting. I feel sorry for the people who have written this off as a bust, because even if you're let down by the story the gameplay is improved and the graphics are unbelievable. Recommend!

Charming and Cathartic

This is my second Animal Crossing game, with New Leaf being the first. If you're like me and usually prefer fast-paced games or if this is your first AC game, there is a bit of a learning curve, but once you get your island up and running you'll be surprised how fast time flies by while you're playing. There are no real objectives, but that's the beauty of the series. The experience is your own. I wholeheartedly recommend this game to anyone.

Serious flaw prevents it from being great
on December 6, 2019
Posted by: paulypofficial
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've had this laptop for about 5 weeks now and I have nothing but good things to say about the specs, performance, and ease of use for the casual user. The build quality is fantastic, probably the sleekest, best laptop I've ever owned. It's Windows, so you probably already know what you're getting in terms of software.
HOWEVER, about two weeks ago, coincidentally after performing a software update, I've had some bad luck with this laptop. In the middle of nearly every use, the screen either freezes or the computer shuts down entirely. Now, I was highly anticipating this laptop and it has delivered on almost all fronts as I mentioned in the first paragraph, but when the computer essentially freezes and I have to power it back on again, it's extremely frustrating, as this laptop was not cheap (for the specs, I felt that it was, but a computer is still a significant investment). I have not called Microsoft support, as I'm sure they would have told me to just do a factory reset, which I'm not sold on. I wish I could have given this laptop rave reviews, but until this flaw gets fixed, I am fairly dissatisfied.

Nice Alarm Clock With Google Assistant
on October 7, 2019
Posted by: paulypofficial
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this as a birthday gift and it's the perfect size for an alarm clock! I considered buying the Google Home Hub in the past, but the screen was too big to be used as a clock, in my opinion. What I like about this clock is how simple it is. I essentially use it to play music and wake up in the morning. If you're looking for a "smart" speaker that does only a few smart things, give this a shot!
