I own a few heavy duty professional outlet surge protectors, but this simple one used for home is remarkably excellent. I really like the energy saver switch that shuts off the outlets not in use. I use it more for when I travel so I can always have the extra outlets I need.

I was recommended Fallout 4 by a Best Buy sales representative. His description of the game and the whole Fallout series made me want to divulge right into the game as soon as I got home. I was a little disappointed to tell the truth. The game has free roam which I like and was the main reason i wanted to purchase the game, but it's visuals, and first person play didn't really impress me. The visuals look more cartoony like and it's hard for me to take the game seriously. I haven't played it since...Another $59 dollar down the drain.

DualShock 4 Wireless Controller for PlayStation 4: Improved dual analog sticks and trigger buttons offer an impressive sense of control, while the capacitive touchpad opens up endless potential for new gameplay possibilities.

I am 50/50 on the purchase of the Sony - Dualshock 4 Wireless Controller for PlayStation 4. The controller is a little too big and bulky and the cost is ridiculous. Personally there is too much going on with it. they should make a standard controller that doesn't have all those features that to me is of no use. having such an expensive controller (for those that can't afford it) limits a person to only playing games by themselves (online doesn't count)

Capture smooth footage with your camcorder or HDSLR camera using this Sunpak 1000AVG VLB-GRIP action video grip, which features an oversize mount for stability. An adjustable shoe mount enables simple attachment of an accessory light or microphone.

i love my action grip. It gives me the ability to handle my camera with ease . It adds more mobility when I'm taking video footage with my DSLR camera. Only thing I had a problem with was that I initially bought it for my XF-100 but even though I can mount it on there, I have to squeeze it on there, But it is a useful mount especially if you want to set the camera down without putting the camera on a surface. I would recommend it for anyone with a camera

There are so many important moments in your life and you want to capture every detail. You know your memory is limited, so you make sure to document each event.

You want to smell the hydrangeas as you watch your daughter walk down the aisle again and again. But the colors in your videos are flat and muted. They just don't create the same feelings you had when the memories were first unwinding. VideoStudio Ultimate X8 allows you to transform original footage using tools and effects.

Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events is one of those weird rare children's dark comedies. This is Jim Carrey at his funniest and darkest. Also this was my introduction to Emily Browning who would later go on to star in another favorite movie of mines..Sucker Punch

![Full Metal Jacket [DVD] [1987]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/4176/4176377_sa.jpg)
Stanley Kubrick's Vietnam war opus Full Metal Jacket is available as part of the Stanley Kubrick collection from Warner Bros. Featuring a digital master from restored elements and a soundtrack newly remastered in Dolby Digitial 5.1, this title looks and sounds great. The only qualm, and it is a rather major one, is the format of the film itself. It is unfortunately presented in full screen, not the original widescreen format many DVD lovers have become accustomed to. As for bonus materials, the title is on the skimpy side, offering only the original theatrical trailer, scene access, and language choices in English and French. Subtitles are also available in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese.

I'm a big fan of the Need for Speed games. This Need For Speed game feels basic. Feels like something is missing. All the game play is set in the dark. And just like other games, there needs to be an internet connect to play the game. Why? A person shouldn't have to shell out $50 or $60 dollars for a game and can't play the game if they have no internet connection or can't get the full benefits of it. But over all the game is excellent..so far.

Does Geek Squad repair Ps3 dual shock controllers & For how much
My Ps3 dual shock controller is messed up....it might be the analog stick but I'm not sure so are you guys able to fix it and if so for how much?
I'm not Geek Squad..And no...Geek Squad, nor any other video game retailer will fix it. if you have protection they will replace it. But the problem you having is a common flaw in PS3 controllers and can easily be fixed by you. There are several You Tube videos that will walk you thru the process step by step. Look at it like this. Even if you mess it up, you would have still probably been looking into buying another one anyway

I'm not a Geek Squad Representative but sorry to inform you, but Best Buy, nor any other place like Game Stop will fix your controller. Maybe you can get a little out of the way video repair shop to do so. But I just recently learned that this problem you have is a common flaw in the PS3 controllers. If you not concern about messing the controller up, you can actually correct the problem yourself. It is a sensor in the controller that sits behind the buttons. Through wear & tear mount that pushes the sensors up against the buttons loses it's firmness and caused the sensor to move. Also if you have dropped it and hear something moving around, up may have broke the housing that holds the sensors in place. If it's not to badly broken, you can tape it up using very small pieces. With the mound you can also use a piece of rolled tape behind the sensor on top of the little black mount. To better assist you in doing this, there are several videos on You Tube that can walk you through it

Can u fix my PS3 remote controller & if yes where do i go to get it repair & if not where can buy a new one.Also I have a gift card for $25 for a discount or repairs
I can't fix it, I'm not a technician and most places you take it to that do game repairs will say they can't fix it because they want you to buy their refurbished or new controllers..but don't despair...you can fix it yourself ..It really just depends on what it is wrong with it. If it seems like it has a mind of it's own...like the analog stick is stuck and just keeps scrolling by itself and you can't control it, then the problem will more likely be that the sensor inside may be off track. If you have dropped it a few times this could throw it off also or you may have broken one of the mounts that hold the sensor in place.This is a very common flaw in the PS3 controller and can be easily fix with with a small Phillip head screwdriver and some black electrical tape(really can use any tape) by opening up the controller (wipe the sensor off with a little light alcohol and a cotton squab just because) and add a small piece of black electric tape behind the sensor to push it up firmly under the buttons. There is already a black spongy backer but I guess after wear and tear it loses it's firmness. There is video instructions on You Tube on how to do this. Watch several of them before or right along with doing it. Now if it's totally dead or won't hold a charge, it could be your battery. Best way to test that is try taking the battery out of another controller (Only if you don't mind taking that risk or maybe you have another one that acting up but still charges)and putting it in there. If that doesn't work, you may have to try sending of to the manufacture for one ..if the still carry them. If you just want to shell out $54 for a new one, try Best Buy online. They don't carry them in the store. Me personally I trust Best Buy for all my electronic needs.But shop around, if I ain't mistaken, Best Buy does price match guaranty..Use the $25 discount if they honor it. If not try Walmart, Kmart or Target online.Unless Game Stop or a local video game repair store have them you may only find them at online stores and you wanna try those that will honor your discount . I hope this was helpful.

Replaced black cartridge and now printer will not print text
I have a HP Photosmart Premium Printer -Model c309g. I replaced the depleted black ink cartidge with a brand new one and now it will not print any black text. Colors all print. I am now getting a message that the photo ink is depleted ( I have never printed photos and seldom any graphics.) Is the photo ink necessary for printing text? Can a regular hp black cartridge be substituted for photo ink? What do I try now to get this printer to print?? All cartridges are hp ink.
I would suggest troubleshooting your printer if it has that capability.Sometimes when adding a new cartridge you may not put the cartridge in all the way an so there may not be a proper connection.take it out and reinsert it. I sometimes have to remove all the ink cartridges and clean the heads of the connectors. that may be another reason for bad connection. I have a built =in self-cleaner in mines that I use after i clean it manually. Also turning the printer off a and on after installing ink with kind of reset it. If none of these things work just try contacting HP customer service
