Another great console from Sony

PS4 Pro is a nice upgrade from the original PS4 released 3 years ago. It's better and improved in every way. I am also glad they decided to not include a UHD 4k drive so they could keep the cost down. If you are looking for a console with a UHD 4k player look to the Xbox one S. The hardware isn't as powerful as the PS4 Pro but you will be able to play games and watch the limited but growing amount of UHD blu rays that are available.

I truly believe this is one of the best monitors you can buy at this price point.. 1 ms refresh rate, 144hz, adjustable stand, and once tweaked and properly set up, it has a fantastic display.
This display is the biggest issue with this monitor because out of the box it just isn't that good. It's extremely bright and the colors look washed out. I have spent a few months messing with settings and tweaking the display and I will share the settings below that I am happy with that rival the color and great picture of any ips display you can compare this Philips to.

Great headset for PC or console gaming
on June 8, 2014
Posted by: CPB3
from Monterey CA
How Often Used:1-2 times a week
I use this headset to game on PC, PS4, Xbox One, WiiU and PS Vita. The sound is completely natural. Meaning that there are no added effects or sounds other than what the game is offering, so you get to hear the game exactly how the developer intended you to.
I also own b&w P7's which are superior to this product in every way except gaming, IMO Sennheiser really nailed what they set out to do with this headset. It all comes back to that natural sound these offer and the great mic.
You will need a separate adapter PCV 05, if you want to use the mic on Xbox live or PSN. It's $15 and converts the Y connector ( mic & audio) to a single plug so you can plug into the Dualshock4, xbox one controller, wiiu gamepad, or vita and use voice chat. You will also need the Xbox one chat adapter to plug into if using microsofts console.
This headset is a tank. Its light weight, but very solid (plastic) and even though it hasn't happened I know it could take a drop to a hard floor and not be damaged.
The mic is off when raised, you simply lower the mic to turn it on and chat away. There is a volume wheel on the right side of the headset. This is one of my favorite features just for the ease of use, you won't realize how much you will use this until you start using the product, at least I didn't. The volume on the wheel adjusts the sound and chat from 40-100%. You can't turn the sound off with the dial alone.
If I'm not going to be using voice chat I plug into my reciever using the supplied larger plug. I do notice a difference in sound. It sounds better than when using them plugged into a controller. It has more bass and can be turned up louder, but you can't use the mic. So the sound quality of this headset is somewhat determined by the source of the audio and the power it outputs. That being said, they still sound very good while plugged directly into the controllers I listed.
Almost forgot to mention how comfortable these are. The plush velvet ear pads are very soft and flexible. They feel great around your ears and pressing against your head for hours is a non issue. You forget your wearing them after awhile. These are open, so you can hear everything going on around you, they also leak sound, so others can hear them somewhat.
I'm probably forgetting something but this is a long read already. If you've made it this far thanks for reading and if you couldn't tell, I definitely recommend these for any gamer looking for a quality headset.

Another great Lego game

So I just picked up this game to play with my 4 year old who started running around and flapping with excitement when he saw it.
Good graphics, easy to play. We play exclusively in co op mode and have a blast playing together. This is just a good positive game that makes us both happy. It's nice to escape to a game like this after a long day at work or on a rainy day.
This won't be the last Lego game we buy that's for sure. And remember, everything is awesome!

Great game for PS4

I played through this game on my 360 and loved it so I didn't hesitate to pick it up for ps4.
$60 well spent after you see all the details and hard work that went into this definitive edition, the game looks absolutely incredible. Best graphics I have seen on a console and look as good as a high end pc.
Pick this up and see what your new ps4 is capable of.

Tv Gave Black Screen After Only 13 months
By MGMN
Steer away from Panasonic Tv's. I purchased the Viera TC-P55VT30 and it died after only 13 Months. Panasonic said they would do absolutely nothing. Best Buy said the same since I didn't have a warranty with them. After paying $2300 for the set, one would think the mfg would stand behind their product. If you go ahead with your purchase after reading this, remember to look in the mirror when the tv goes black.

Why are you "reviewing" the wrong model. Your expierience has nothing to do with this specific TV. The VT50.
I have this VT50 and a VT25. The model year before your VT30. The VT25 looks as good as it did the day I brought it home from BB.
"Steer away from Panasonic TV's" you say? I say steer clear of your review.

Only you can mix and match their tops and bottoms, put them on the new Portal of Power and help save Skylands.Starter Pack includes: one Video Game, one Portal of Power, three Skylanders Figures, one Character Collector Poster, three Sticker Sheets with Secret Codes and three Trading Cards.

Best version of swap force on PS4
December 2, 2013
This game is very fun to play. I play it with my 4 year old who is a pro at the previous 2 games. This game introduces the ability to jump for the first time in the series. It's a great game to teach him platforming, although it's a little harder for him than the first 2 games.
The toys are expensive and addicting, you will spend a lot of money but it's fun to collect them and they are pretty cool for both parents and kids.
We had swap force for Wii U which has the same graphics as the xbox 360 and ps3. The PS4 versions graphics are unbelievable when compared. The game looks like a Pixar movie. When you look at screenshots or the back of the game case it actually looks like the game on the PS4. Really shows the power of this PS4.

I just got a new Alienware x51 and whatever sound card is in that little machine makes these sound even better than they did before. Plenty of bass and treble. Crystal clear sound. Like I mentioned in my initial review, the sound quality you will get from these is largely determined by the source you are using.

Value-priced monitor
By PK12 from San Francisco, CA
This was an emergency purchase since my old monitor died. The screen is larger than my previous monitor and the display is much sharper. I thought I was getting it a good price ($150). However, the Best Buy price dropped by another 20 dollars in less than a month after I purchased it but I couldn't get Best Buy to agree to refund me the price difference.

Best Buy has a 15 day return policy. Common sense tells you that the price match policy would also fall under this 15 day policy. If you have elite or elite plus you would have 30 or 45 days for a price match or return.
If I am within my return policy (45 days) Best Buy has always honored a price match, and I do it quite often.

Poor Customer Service and Poor Quality
By Graham
I purchased an LG 65EF9500 smart TV on Nov 23, 2015. It was installed Dec 9, 2015. The TV is beautiful as was working very well until Feb 25, 2016 (effectively working for 3 months). On this date a thin line appeared and ran across the bottom 3rd of the TV and is seen on every medium (cable, Apple TV, Chromecast). The $5,000 TV is defective and after verification from an LG approved TV repair person that the unit is in fact defective, LG refuses to replace the 3 month old $5,000 TV, telling me they will only replace the panel in a repair. Initially I was told by their representative Daniel that their process for replacement was to have a 2nd repair person come to my home and inspect the unit again. The appointment was emailed to me followed by a phone call from Daniel confirming the next day appointment. When I contacted the repair shop they informed me that the correspondence they received from LG was to order a panel for repair. I called LG for the third time only to be told by Robert (Rep#10243) that they use to replace the TV but now only repair it with a panel. As a consumer who paid $5,000 for an LG TV that only worked for 3 months, this is unacceptable. I will never consider an LG product again and I will tell my horrible experience and LGs tone deafness to their customers to everyone who will listen.

Sorry to hear you had this issue with your basically brand new tv. I know for sure I would be frustrated and want a new tv also instead of a panel replacement but at least it should be fixed for you. I would just be worried that the panel replacement would be defective or have a flaw like my first set did, that I had to swap out with the Best Buy return policy. Good luck!

Just as good as an IPS
By RyanPiv
This monitor does not conform to the standard TN stereotype (imo, Dell has a lot to do with that). As others have said, 144hz, Gsync, 1440p, 1ms response for under $500? Unheard of.
For the current time you won't find all of that for this price point and from my understanding the IPS equivalent would be ~$650+. I've been keeping an eye out for a year now and this is finally it; I picked up two.
I also find strange how no one has mentioned the thin bezel and flat/minimal design of this monitor. Great looking piece of hardware if you're seeking a modern PC setup. A requirement for me at this point.
It's a great monitor and my first high quality display. I'll never go back under 144hz or 2560x1440 (also g sync is incredible). It will look like absolute bad out of the box but you can fix that easily.

HDMI cables

Are all HDMI cables the same or do you recommend specific cables to get the best picture quality from this TV?
Get a hdmi that supports 4K, 3D and arc. Most of them will say newest standard. If you pay more than $15 for a cable 10ft or less you are a fool. Agree with me or not, I've tested it out and my $11.99 6ft cable will give a picture equal to anything that costs more.

Does the TV's Optical Audio Output pass Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel audio signal?

I purchased a Definitive Technology W Studio sound bar system and it does not have ARC. Therefore, I couldn't connect via HDMI and had to use an optical cable connection. But, I am concerned that I am loosing sound quality if the TV can't pass full unfiltered audio through its optical output. Is audio signal pass equivalent for the optical output as the HDMI ARC?
Not equivalent to the hdmi. But it will output Dolby digital 5.1 via optical output.
