Good Starter Pack
on July 27, 2012
Posted by: Nightmare317
from Travis AFB, CA
Comes free with each soda stream. Easy way to figure out what flavors you like. Several if not all taste like Coke brands. Only drawback is the design of the syrup packets, should be in bottles for easy pouring.
What's great about it: Variety
What's not so great: Poor design of flavor packets

A simply great machine

Posted by: Nightmare317

My family loves our SodaStream. Simple to set up and use. I like that the flavors are similar to Coke flavors. They're not exact copies of any brand but in my opinion they're closer to Coke than any other. I also like the Natural flavors (Coke, Root Beer & Ginger Ale). They remind me of what soda tasted like when I was a kid AND the Coke/Root Beer are excellent over ice cream. The only flavor that could use some work is the "Sprite" mix, not the greatest. Orange, Dr. Pete, Coke Free are all excellent. I really like that I can customize my own flavors....Coke with Grenadine or Lime is excellent. I figure it costs around .75 cents per liter and in my book a quarter saved in this economy is good. Well worth the high initial investment and will provide many happy returns.
ENJOY OVER ICE CREAM, YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED
What's great about it: Custom mixes, fun, money saving
What's not so great: High Initial Investment

Could be cheaper

As always Apple designed a simple, powerful & astetically nice device and as always Apple charges a premium for it. I think $20-$25 is fair for the unit. I hightly recommend these as they're built to last; provided you don't yank it by the cord. Got over 3 years with the last one. Get one!
What's great about it: Functionality, Ease of Use

SynopsisYou've received your assignment, hustled into a helicopter and skillfully maneuvered into the murky abyss of a mysterious land — with one deadly mission on your mind. You slip and sneak through dangerous territory. You spot an enemy in the distance and raise your rifle as you aim with precision. With a nearly silent pop, he drops lifelessly from view, as you press on, planting explosives to carve your way through secured fortresses, removing classified information and leaving only a trail of smoke in your wake. Welcome to a new kind of war. Tomorrow, the government will deny that your operation ever occurred. Your location will be obscured. Your alibi will be written. The war will be erased from history. But today, you bask in the glory of a perfect kill.Call of Duty: Black Ops is the latest installment in the Call of Duty franchise and the follow-up to last year's blockbuster Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The Cold War has ended — or at least, it appears that it has. You are one of the few to know the secrets of the deadly conflicts that persist and to complete the classified operations that quietly protect the nation. You are Black Ops. Descend into the explosive combat with all-new force and all-new technologies to destroy the enemy, including new Killstreaks like Napalm Strikes, a remote-controlled explosive device and controllable helicopters. A deadlier mission than ever requires the most intensive Combat Training yet — hone your tactics offline against A.I. bots in both Free-For-All and Team Deathmatch modes and earn COD Points to purchase equipment, attachments, perks and new customization options. Further test your nerves and weapon skills in point-gambling Wager Matches, and celebrate each epic kill in Theater Mode. You are being summoned — do you have the courage to answer a grave new Call of Duty?

Great Set for the Price
on May 15, 2011
Posted by: Nightmare317
from Travis AFB, CA
This game is beyond awesome and I can't say more than has already been said by other players.
The Collectors Edition is well done, the art book is nicely bound and the Pandora's Box packaging is sturdy enough for display.
My only warning would be to double check to see if the DLC codes still work. Other than that enjoy this set masterpiece of a game.
What's great about it: God of War
What's not so great: Unknown if there is DLC Codes

This release from the classic '80s cartoon series Transformers includes all 98 episodes from all four seasons of the show, telling the story of a robotic alien race called the Autobots, who lead a quest under the leadership of Rodimus Prime to battle the Deceptacons, an evil rival race bent on controlling the world, led by the dastardly Galvatron.

Not acutally complete but close enough
on May 15, 2011
Posted by: Nightmare317
from Travis AFB, CA
This set contains all the original episodes from seasons 1-4. However it's missing the Transformers Movie. If you missed out on the Matrix of Leadership edition this will suffice. I wish that Shout Factory would include the movie in their sets, it would actually make them complete. If this set is from the same DVD transfer as the Matrix of Leadership edition then they'll play and look fine. They contain all the original mistakes from the 80's (poor color rendering, talking with no mouth movement, improperly rendered character colors, etc.) but it still provides a high nostalgic value to those who grew up with this cartoon.
What's great about it: Transformers Seasons 1-4
What's not so great: No Movie, AGAIN!!!

Well Done
on April 19, 2011
Posted by: Nightmare317
from Travis AFB, CA
I had no issues at all with my install. Two agents showed up on time with all equipment ready and charged. They took the time to listen to my concerns before starting, measured twice, drilled once and was done in 40 min. I recommed that before getting this service ask your local BBY to show you the customer surveys on the prospective agents. I was able to do this and was able to pick out a team that was well reviewed. My only minor complaint was the price, could've been a $100 cheaper but overall I'm very pleased.
What's great about it: Able to pick certain agents to do this
What's not so great: A litlle pricey

Where can I find a best buy which sells referbished PS3?

I seen some on the web site but they are gone.
After speaking to the Geek Squad at my NorCal Best Buy the refurbished ones are gone within 24 hours of hitting the store, you have to be lucky and in the store when it hits because they are few and far between.

does the ps3 runs hot if u play it for hours

Yes, however, if you keep it in an open area, away from direct sunlight and nothing obstructing the vents, it will be fine.

Can you return a ds game if you don't like it?

Unfortunately no, it has to be defective or broken. Sometimes it depends on the cashier as well, some do some don't; but official policy is above.

do you sell this item

is there somekind of item that connects to your tv or gaming system (ps3) that prevents lagging, and keeps you from having trouble on getting online and not having to try repeatedly just to get online to play a game
If your having issues connecting, you need to dedicate the wireless router solely to the gaming system. At my house I have 1 computer and it's plugged in via ethernet cable and the PS3 which runs off the WiFi (Linksys "G" series router). If you run too many items off the WiFi, it's going to run slow. If you can't/won't do it, make sure all other items that are connected to the router are TURNED OFF, don't put them to "sleep", they must be turned of or disable the WiFi while your gaming. Only other option is to upgrade your router, but be careful, WiFi routers that can do this cost big $$$$.

what is the difference in a xbox 360 and a playstation 3 which is better and why

Here are the pros and cons for both

PS3 Pros- Up to 250GB HD, Free Online gaming via PSN, BLURAY PLAYER, Netflix Compatible up to 1080p graphics/7.1 surround sound, no red ring of death, easily upgradable HD.

PS3 Cons- Price tag (up to $350 250 GB HD), still a brick weight wise, since online is free some issues with gaming.

XBOX Pros- Up to 150 GB HD, much cheaper, lighter system, up to 1080i 5.1 surround sound, Netflix compatible, easily upgradable HD, a lot easier to mod and upgrade and XBOX live is far superior for online gaming, however it costs up to $60/year depending on package

XBOX Cons- RED RING OF DEATH (sure it's replaced for free but no gaming for 15-30 days while it's getting repaired SUCKS!) Only plays DVD's.

What it really boils down to is what you are going to do with the system; If you are a hard core online shooter gamer, XBOX would be the way to go. If your a medium to light online gamer go with the PS3, a lot less problems and it's got a Blu-ray. If you get the XBOX your going to spend an additional $100+ for a blu ray, why not take that additional $$$ and put it towards a PS3.

I own a PS3 and I play very few online games. I've had it for 3 and half years, keep it well ventilated and clean and I've never had any issues with it. I highly recommend it over the XBOX.

what is a DNS error

im having trouble connecting my ps3 to the internet and it tells me that it is a DNS error. What is that?
If you are using wireless internet make sure that the PS3 is only system hooked up to it. If you are running multiple computers and gaming systems it can cause it to run slow and generate the error message. Only other way is to turn off (not standby) all other "systems" running. Hope this helps.
