I only got the S because I got a new tv. I really like how much smaller it is. The unit I got makes a little bit of fan noise. Not enough for it to bother me. I mention this because it seems to be a very wide spread problem for this new system. The new improved controller is good too. I like how the dpad and shoulder buttons don't have that loud click any more. The HDR gaming is nice. I wasn't blown away by how gears and horizon looked any better. They already look really good. So I couldn't really see a big difference. This system is best for someone that doesn't have one yet, someone that has one that is broken,or failing or someone that can afford to just buy another system.

I was looking forward to this game because of what I had been seeing. But also very very skeptical. Because the first game being under whelming. I am very happy to say that the developer really listened to the fans and to The criticism. This game is very fun. Very open in the way you can play the missions. The game sounds good, and looks good. I can speak on the PS4 pro. version. To me it looks very sharp. Runs very well. Draw distance is also very good. Lighting is great. The world is filled with a lot of life. If you even kinda liked the first game. This one is definitely a buy.

This game is so much better than the first. The Devs really payed attention to what the people had criticized about the first and improved on everything. They did a few weeks to multiplayer that for me could have been left alone. But the game looks great. The gameplay is very tight. Too bad the publisher EA released this between battlefield 1 and CoD. It would have been better received around February to March. I hope they sell enough to make another.

It's obvious to see that it is a different setting for this installment. What you will only know by having this game is, is how polished this game is. This has got to be the best performing game at launch in recent memory. It's not perfect. But compared to other titles that just came out (CoD) this has got a great online experience. The game looks incredible. Sounds incredible, and the gameplay is tight. A must have.

This game is pretty good. It is fun. Has good mechanics. It does have some problems. Once you spend a little bit of time with it you can probably see that it could have used some more time in development. Probably 6 months or even another year. But I think they just wanted to get the game out there that's probably why the game is less than the normal 59.99 price.

I bought this while it was on sale from 19.99 to 14.99. Plus I get that 20% off. So it was maybe $13 w tax. I start with that because that is the only reason I decided to buy this game. It's like 2 years old. Looks decent,and famously difficult. Has gotten really good reviews when it released. So I finally got it. Haven't played it for that long. From what I have played it's pretty good. I would recommend this when on sale again.

This is a game that was made by devs that knew what made the previous games great and improved on that,and left alone what worked previously.
The game looks,and sounds great. Lots of detail in the city. You can really tackle every mission in so many ways. The game has a lot of replay value. A lot of games now days are lacking that. I highly recommend this game. It is definitely worth full price. Specially if you have gamers zone unlocked and can get that 20% off.

I read that the games last delay was for removing a lot of the features that this game had in place. I believe it. Comparing the game that I got to a lot of videos that I've seen. I believe they did this to then put it back in future updates or dlc. Too bad they made a business decision like that. This game has suffered for that. I can only recommend to wait a few months for the devs to ad more gameplay features, and or a great sale or inevitable price drops. Also. Read or check videos online before you buy. So you see what I'm referring to, and you know what kind of game you are getting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

 Far Cry 5 Gold Edition - Xbox One
Far Cry 5 Gold Edition - Xbox One
Far Cry comes to America in the latest installment of the award-winning franchise.Hope County, Montana, has been overrun by a fanatical doomsday cult – The Project at Eden’s Gate. Upon your arrival, you must spark the fires of resistance to liberate the community.
 

Why is your gold edition of far cry 5, 10 dollars more than anywhere else I have looked for it

I noticed that as well. That it's $89.99. I figure it's because it's the digital edition. The physical copy seems to make it cost more.

You and your elite team of Ghosts must infiltrate and destroy the deadly cartel to save Bolivia, and its people, from total collapse. Set in a massive open world, you have total freedom of choice; every decision made affects the world around you. You decide how to play.
 

does best buy sell a preowned copy of this game and if so how much are they?

The thing is that not all stores carry used games for sale. I bought this game on sale. So it was actually cheaper to buy it new. So I recommend buying it on sale.

How do I find out what stores will have midnight release? And could I have someone else pick it up for me?

I usually just google the question: insert game name Best Buy midnight release. Then usually one of the top results is an actual Best Buy website link directly to that section of their site.

My store is releasing Mario odyssey at 9pm. What time should I arrive to be early for pick up when it released?

At least 30 minutes earlier for those type of release events. The bigger the game, the earlier you should go. So this game, maybe like at least 45 minutes early.

Is this 6000. btu Energy star rated like it says it is on front of AC FRIGIDAIRE ITSELF AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN WILL MY AC BILL BE LESS $Costly.

The way it saves energy is, that once it reaches the temperature for a few minutes that you set. It will go into standby mode. In other words it shuts off. Then when it gets a few degrees hotter than your setting it will turn back on.

Does the unit leak water or does it evaporate the water?

It will leak water from a drain hole towards the bottom rear of the unit. The water helps the ac cool more efficiently. When not in use the elements help evaporate the leftover water.

 Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Standard Edition - PlayStation 4
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Standard Edition - PlayStation 4
Several years after his last adventure, retired fortune hunter, Nathan Drake, is forced back into the world of thieves. With the stakes much more personal, Drake embarks on a globe-trotting journey in pursuit of a historical conspiracy behind a fabled pirate treasure. His greatest adventure will test his physical limits, his resolve, and ultimately what he's willing to sacrifice to save the ones he loves.
 

Was I the only one that did not receive the pirate sigil coin when pre-ordering a copy of this? It was advertised on tv and it was on their website as part of the pre-order bonuses.

The store I got mine from only received about 10 coins (or so the guy said),on top of that he initially did not intend to give me the coin. I had to ask him then it was a fiasco asking several other employees about if he can give it to me. I had this game preordered as well. I did get it tho.

I remembered this game was advertise with a 10 dollar pre order in certificates months ago, for people that pre ordered the game at that time do they receive the reward certificate?

This game was not a part of the "victory can be preorder" program. I don't know why. It's one of the biggest games of this year. It seems to me that Best Buy is cutting back on the amount of titles it is including in the program. Compared to the last couple of years.
