For now (day 1), this game isn't worth your time. Capped at 30fps, poor textures, glitches, crashes, and virtually no controller support. After the patches come out to address these (and other) issues, you should definitely buy this game. The story is awesome and well told. If you're like me and just can't wait then go ahead and try it. Otherwise, wait until it's stable.

Finally replaced an older Airport Extreme that I've had problems with for years. Granted I've only had this router up and running for a few minutes, so far it's awesome. Compared to the Airport Extreme, this thing has a greater range and speeds have been higher and remain constant (I pay for 30/5mbps and get 37/6mbps on speed tests through wireless). The interface is easy to use and contains plenty of options for configuring your network (I'm majoring in network administration so these options are great for someone like me). I haven't had a chance to utilize the USB port yet so I can't comment on that, I just hope it works unlike the Airport Extreme I previously used. The price is right on this one and I recommend to anyone looking for a router.

Built my first PC for myself and went with all the new stuff (Skylake/Z170, etc.) and used this for my main drive. This thing is super fast. For instance, I copied a 26GB virtual machine from one folder to another and it took around 2 minutes. Doing the same thing on my 2011 Mac Mini (i5, regular HDD) takes around 20 minutes. Boot times are great, antivirus scans are quick, and everything loads nice and fast. This thing will spoil you though, it's hard to go back to anything slower. I will definitely add at least another 512GB to my PC, this thing is the best and worth the price.

Works fine but took a star off because this one is made for the XL slot and not the standard black slot. This isn't a huge deal but it is a little misleading.

Had this heater for a few days now and so far it works just fine. Saw it half price on the deal of the day so I couldn't pass it up. It actually puts out a decent amount of heat and heats up my small office in my house fairly quick. The switch on the bottom is a nice little safety feature that will turn it off if it happens to get knocked over. I definitely recommend this to anyone that could use some extra heat in a small room. Some people say they would like a way to adjust the temperature, but for a cheap heater like this I'm not complaining. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it really needs to be a little heavier. Just barely moving the cord will cause the heater to move with it. It's not a huge deal and for the cost I guess it makes sense.

I just had these shipped since I was in no hurry for batteries. Unfortunately, the package was open and all the batteries were just rolling around in the box. Also, I've tried using them in some of my daughters toys and so far half of them haven't even worked. They were the deal of the day so they were about half price, but in the end half of them haven't even worked so I guess I just paid full price for a 12 pack.

Got this on sale for half price and it was definitely worth it. I got it to keep in my bathroom since I like to listen to music when showering and/or getting ready and it's perfect. This little speaker gets pretty loud and the overall sound quality is pretty decent for the size. The high's almost sound a little tiny but the mids and lows make up for it (the bass isn't booming but it's definitely there). You'll get a little better sound using an auxiliary cable but bluetooth still sounds good. The speaker also feels good to hold as it has enough weight that it doesn't feel cheap but light enough that it wouldn't be an issue to carry around. If you still listen to music from a cellphone or laptop speaker then quit and go out and buy this, you won't regret it.

This game is probably one of the best games ever made. While it starts off a little slow, it eventually picks up after you meet up with Ellie. The story is the best part of the game, it's like an emotional roller coaster, and this is coming from a guy that doesn't pay attention to the story in almost any game ever played. I've beaten this game maybe 8 times because it's so good. If you have a PS4 (or even PS3), this game is a must have. You can believe the few negative reviews if you want, but you're better off reading the top of the case where it says: "Over 200 game of the year awards". Those awards are for a good reason.

I wasn't looking for anything too crazy when shopping for a monitor, I mainly just wanted something silver that didn't look cheap to go with my Mac Mini. I've only had this monitor for a day, and so far I'm really liking it. Everything is really clear, colors look nice, and it has built-in speakers (they're nothing special). The "buttons" on the bottom side of the screen took a second to get used to, I kept accidentally turning the monitor off when trying to adjust it to the right angle. In all, this is a good monitor and was just what I was needing.

I needed some extra ports since one of the ports on my Airport Extreme went out a long time ago. Ordered a couple of these but only have 1 hooked up right now and so far it works like it should. It functions, it's cheap, and it looks good. As long as you don't need to mount it, it should be perfect for anybody needing some extra ports.

Picture fades if viewing slightly from side angles

Purchased Samsung 40" LED 1080 UN4OH5003AF, my first experience with Widesreen. Is it normal to have the picture colour fade or bleach when viewing from the sides? Thanks for any comments.
To an extent, yes. It shouldn't be so much that it's unwatchable though.

im just curious how long these sets last-does anyone have their set over 5 years / thanks for your time

I'm pretty sure this model isn't that old so I don't think anyone can honestly answer that. On another note, I have this TV in my bedroom and I haven't had a single issue out of it. As for the longevity of Samsung, I have a higher end Samsung that I've had for maybe 4 years now and it's still going strong (but I also paid over $2000 for it so I hope it will last for a long time) and another Samsung that I've had for maybe 5 years without any issues (a smaller 22" LED). I've got 2 more Samsung TV's (this model being one of them) but they're only a few months old so only time will tell. If you don't feel 100%, you can always purchase a warranty.

Would this be a good monitor for photography?

Mainly looking for color representation
I really enjoy this monitor but honestly I can't say I would recommend it for photography. It's not terrible, but the colors start to get a little (emphasis on "little") washed out depending on the angle you're sitting and for photography I don't think that would be ideal. Then again this is my opinion and you might find the monitor to be perfect for your needs.

Should I buy a Blu-Ray DVD player with wi-fi capability?

I just recently purchased a Smart TV and now want to buy a blu-ray DVD player. If I am accessing Pandora, Netflix, Facebook apps via my Smart TV, do I really need this same capability on the blu-ray DVD player?
No. Smart TV's and smart BlueRays really aren't that great for streaming movies and music as their menus tend to be clunky and they rarely have updates. My main setup is a high end Samsung and a Samsung BlueRay/stereo (not very great, but sufficient); they're both "smart" but I never use those features and instead use PS3/PS4 or Apple TV to stream.

Smart Tv and Smart Blu Ray Player

Hi

I purchased yesterday at one of your store the following items:
Samsung 46" smart Tv UN46ES6100F
Samsung Smart Blu Ray Player BDD6500BD
I was thinking last night before I unpack everything, do I really need a smart Blu Ray Player if I have a smart TV? Advantages to this? At this point it would be easy just to exchange the Blue Ray player if there no major advantages to having two smart devices.

Thanks very much
If you want to watch BlueRays then yes, you'll need the BlueRay player. Honestly, smart TV's and smart BlueRay players aren't that great as their menus tend to be clunky. If you're wanting to stream movies from Netflix or something similar, you're a lot better off buying a separate set-top box or dongle (Chromecast, Roku, Apple TV, etc.)
