I had not heard anything about this movie. For being the 3rd installment in a popular franchise, there seemed to be no buzz about this one at all. The kids wanted it, but I did not anticipate much out of it. While nowhere near as good as the original, I was pleasantly surprised. We all enjoyed the movie, even the second time through.

We've had the game for a week or two now. Seems to be a hit with everyone. Lots of game options, lots of different worlds to play in. Would like to have access to some of the other characters more quickly, but we are working on it and figuring things out. It's fun to play and looks great.

I needed a universal remote because I was stuck using 4 separate remotes for the TV, Sound Bar, BluRay and Apple TV. The Apple TV remote was also dying and needed to be replaced one way or the other. The reviews for this product stated that it worked for Apple TV and that was good enough for me. The set up was easy enough, but when it came to programming it to work the Apple TV, I couldn't get it to work. Tried all of the different methods, and none of them worked. I don't know if it's only able to work with the newer versions of Apple TV, maybe that's the problem, but I was disappointed to find that the primary reason that I purchased the remote was basically a waste of time. I still like being able to control the other 3 devices with one remote, and I even used the last of the 4 slots to operate the Xbox One, which allowed me to watch Netflix/Hulu until I forked over another 20 bucks for a replacement Apple TV remote. Good purchase overall, but if you have the old version of Apple TV, just be aware that it may not work (it didn't for me...).

I'm pretty pleased overall. The visuals and presentation are great--light years ahead of the game 10 years ago. My only complaint is with the running game. I used to be able to guide my running back through a gap when it was available and pick up a first down or more. In this game, no matter how big of an opening I see, I'm lucky if I can pick up more than 5 yards. The control is sluggish, and the back needs 5 steps before he decides running would be a better idea than walking. No chance to break a big run for the end zone. Guess I'll stick with the passing game. The receivers seem to be moving at full-speed when they catch the ball.

I caught this one on a daily deal for around 5 or 6 bucks. My previous case had busted after I dropped it...into my pocket and it slid down too hard onto the desk I was standing next to. Gave it a shot as my replacement. At that price, it couldn't hurt. Very pleased. Good grip and feel. Good protection around the edges and on the back. My wife was upset at me for not getting a second one for her. A very nice, inexpensive phone case.

I was familiar with a couple of these songs as being by Deep Purple. There were several songs that I had heard, but had no clue who the artist was. Very good collection.

 Batman: Arkham Knight Standard Edition - Xbox One
Batman: Arkham Knight Standard Edition - Xbox One
The shadows are his home and keeping Gotham's citizens safe is his sustenance. Darkness envelops his every move and his legend lives in the whispers of each passerby. Known by many names — the Caped Crusader, the Dark Knight, Batman — this man lives to protect. But by pitting himself against the criminals of a city, he has only made his laundry list of powerful enemies grow. One after another, a new and nefarious threat has risen up and one after another Batman succeeded in bringing them down. But what happens when those menacing masterminds join forces? Who will rescue Gotham when a deadly roster of depraved lunatics gangs up on the shadowed warrior? Who will save us all?The finale to the legendary Arkham series explodes onto your screen in the most adrenaline-pumping storyline yet. The Scarecrow has returned to Gotham City and he has united a terrifying team of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn. For the first time in the franchise, you get to step behind the wheel of the iconic Batmobile as you harness the power of Batman and scramble to outwit the wicked gang after your blood. Tear through the streets and soar across the skyline in heart-pounding gameplay that will suck you in and force you to ask yourself if you have what it takes to save Gotham. Do you have it within you to be the hero the city needs? Or will the villains of Gotham overtake the Dark Knight once and for all?

I have been a big fan of the arkham series, and was disappointed that the newest game was unavailable on the previous gen systems. Took me awhile to upgrade, but this was the first game I purchased. Wasn't a huge fan of the bat mobile at first, but now I find it to be a blast traveling from one case to the next. Very entertaining so far. About 50% done. This game is the reason I can't get to sleep at a decent time.

Easy set up. Love having 1TB of storage. You sure need it as much storage is required when adding these games. Enjoying the quicker load times and quicker transitions between gaming, Netflix, etc. Time will tell how "worth it" the upgrade to xbox one will be. Will have to check out some more next gen games to know for sure.

NETGEAR - Powerline 200 Mini Ethernet Adapters (2-Pack) - White
These NETGEAR Powerline 200 XAVB1301100PAS mini adapters plug into most power outlets, so you can easily extend Ethernet network connectivity throughout your home, delivering Web access to desktops, gaming consoles and other devices.
 

How many adapters can be used at once?

If you already have a pair of these in use, can another pair be used only as "receivers" and/or combined with other power line adapters? I'd like to set up another wired, and one wired/wireless hub
Yes.

The first set has one adapter to connect to the modem/router and one to connect a device. I had to buy a second set because I had 2 devices that I needed to hook up, and I didn't realize that I would only be able to use one adapter from the first set.

Both adapters that are used to hook up devices (one from the first set and one from the second) are working fine. Just plug it in like the first one. And I have one more adapter ready to use when needed.

Using the NETGEAR - Powerline Ethernet Adapter

We are going to use the NETGEAR Ethernet Powerline Adapter to connect our router to the
ROKU 3. The router (next to the computer) is separated from our TV by two rooms ... almost
75 feet.
Do you have any suggestions?
To my understanding and experience using the products in our house, the distance itself doesn't matter. The first adapter is connected to the modem/router via ethernet and to a power outlet (not a surge protector). The next adapter is plugged into an outlet near your device and connected via ethernet cable. It works through the house's electrical system. That's what "boosts" or transmits the signal. As long as you have an outlet, you can have signal. I bought a second set so that I could have a second device with ethernet internet access.

They all work fine.
