Great console controllers, poor battery life

Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the new PS4 console controllers, but the battery life in them is pathetic. I recommend buying a chat pad battery extender or having multiple remotes to ensure minimal delay in game-time. I docked a star for this reason alone. Additionally, the thumbstick pads do not wear out nearly as quickly on these new controllers as they used to, but I still highly recommend buying a set of third party stick pad grips.

As a whole, Andromeda feels good
on April 4, 2017

from Logan, UT
Verified Purchase:Yes
Putting aside the controversial and somewhat quirky character animation (as it is not just limited to facial animations), this game feels good - though it does not feel entirely like the previous Mass Effect games, and it isn't a life-changer. There is a lot to do, and much of the story is very linear. The choices you make while playing the game do not seem apparent, but they become more meaningful as time goes on and the more time you put into the story. Exploration is not nearly as rewarding as it should be, but the open exploration worlds are beautiful - the scenery and the graphics are absolutely amazing. This, coupled with a PS4 Pro, makes the visuals captivating and worth stopping just to admire the time that it took to build - it is no easy task, and I speak from experience.
There are a few minor issues that are not show stoppers, such as the battle system and the wonky aiming, but all in all, this game is really pretty good. Bioware is still one of my favorite developers, regardless of what people might say about this game; it is worth playing through at least once. Even still, I cannot speak to the nature of the multiplayer experience as I do not play online multiplayer games, and local-co-op games are practically extinct nowadays. There might be an element there that interests you - especially because the multiplayer ties right into the actual campaign. It is sort of interesting the way that it was set up.

Bottom line: Mass Effect Andromeda is not worth full price, but it is worth purchasing. Just wait until it's on sale :)

Songs all sound the same
on March 17, 2017
Posted by: JShandrew
from Logan, UT
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this album for the singles on it, but I actually enjoy the entire album. The music on this album actually ended up being much more political and opinionated than I had anticipated. Only downside is that outside of their two singles on this album, all of the tracks sound the same (**whew** - nearly called them SONGS. That'd be a mistake.). Get this album if you need some loud, angry music to rile you up, or if you actually find it relaxing like me.

Chevelle's best album

I absolutely love this album. I originally purchased it when it was released and lost the album, so I snagged it for five bucks. Awesome. The only thing better than this album (when compared to their other stuff) is seeing them in concert.

Play as your favorite hero with The Legend of Zelda video game for the Wii U. Fans of the old NES game can revisit the original Legend of Zelda to gather the eight pieces of the Triforce once again. Set out on original quests as Link in The Legend of Zelda video game.

Overrated, but still an excellent addition

Verified Purchase:Yes
As a long standing fan of The Legend of Zelda since the days of the original Nintendo, and having a strong affinity toward the Ocarina of Time on the Nintendo 64, I would say that this iteration has been too heavily influenced by the moving tide of modern video gamers. Even still, Breath of the Wild still receives high marks in my book because of the amount of things to do, places to go, and the story behind it (don't worry - no spoilers here). Outside of the longer load times upon first bootup and after dying - because I bought the wii U version, there are only a couple of things that irritated me (and they really aren't that big of a deal, regardless):
1) Weapon durability degrades over time, which is really annoying. This is not something I enjoy dealing with in any video game, really, but in Breath of the Wild, it seems like you always have to be scrounging for weapons and it's always at the forefront of your mind - it can be distracting if you are not careful.
2) Poor inventory management: I get it, Link doesn't have much space on his person for an infinite amount of items (and there are *a lot* of items in this game), but man... It felt like I needed to devote the entirety of the first part of the game to finding Korok seeds in order to expand my inventory.
All in all, this was - is - a great adventure. The graphics, even on the wii U, are great, and I immediately felt at home in the kingdom of Hyrule once again after a small learning curve. There is much to be done, and even after 120 hours, there is still so much to do (even outside the forthcoming DLC) that I don't know that anyone but the most easily bored can find a way to overplay this game. Oh, and make sure you have your amiibos ready for this one - they are surprisingly helpful.

Best recent RE entry

Excellent game. From start to finish, this game excels in telling a great story while keeping the tension and horror factor up and kicking. The DLC has thus far been disappointing, but the game itself has been excellent. Very high replay value and great reward system.

Work, rest and play with the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. A massive 5.5-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen goes all the way to the edges of the phone so that you get the maximum area possible to work with. Solid water resistance, great processing and masses of memory round out this Samsung Galaxy S7 edge.

Great phone, but you need a case in order not to drop it. Slippery as all get out. Not as great as the Note 7s,. But it's OK.

Best 64 GB card on the market for the money

This thing is awesome, and the read/write speed is great for the space provided and the price. Granted, I got mine for 30$ on sale, but even still, it's well worth the money for pro photographers or people like myself that need a huge capacity card on their mobile device.

Star light, star bright... oh wait, that's the LED

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good charger. Got mine on a really low price or I wouldn't have even spent the money for it. It worked very well with the Note 7. This is the quick-charge version of these chargers, and is a stand rather than just a flat pad to lay your phone to sleep on. It works well, but it hums really loudly (I wear ear plugs at night regardless) so don't use it while sleeping. Additionally, the first night I used it, I rolled over to try to figure out what the noise was that was coming from the charger and about had my retinas burned out of my eyes because of the intense brightness of the LED on the front of the charger. This thing is bright. I had to duct tape it so that I could sleep.
Anyway -
Pros:
-Charges quickly
-Turns off upon full charge
-Sturdy, heavy design
-Rubber pad for holding your phone upright

Cons:
-LOUD

-Black, so it collects dust, and after a week it looks like a muppet
-No ledge grip, so your phone still tends to slip off of the shelf if you're not careful.
-Not worth the price unless you can get it on a really good deal
-Only works with certain phones (S7, S7 edge, Note devices, etc.)

I was not aware of being a Verizon customer, am I in fact on Verizon? Motorola-MotoZ 4G LTE Cell Phone I thought that I was on Consumer Cellular,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,is that Verizon?
Consumer Cellular is its own brand, for all intents and purposes. Verizon is not the same company. A variety of cellular phones are made for various service providers and usually have that provider's proprietary software on the cellphone when you purchase it. If you buy a phone from either provider, you are serviced by that provider until you switch carriers. Be very careful to read the fine print on any contractual agreement that you might have to sign so that you are aware of the circumstances to which you are agreeing.

What is the activation fee for this phone?
I had to pay a 20$ activation fee. This may depend on your area, however. I'm not exactly sure about that. I'm sure you could ask Verizon through their online chat program for a better explanation.

Use this 64GB SanDisk Extreme PRO micro SDXC UHS-II card to expand your camera or mobile device's internal storage capabilities. The large capacity lets you avoid the conundrum of having to quickly delete photos and music. Equipped with shock-proof technology and full HD video-capture abilities, this SanDisk Extreme PRO micro SDXC UHS-II card is a great supplemental tool.
I have a tablet with android Marshmallow,and it has expandable storage capability.Would this card be fast enough for internal storage for apps,videos,etc.Or would it be too slow?I,m trying to find a fast card to use as "adoptable storage"...thank you
Absolutely. This card is not the fastest, but it works very well for mobile gaming and high-speed photography, so I imagine it would work well for your needs.
