A little too hard for me. Guess Ive been spoiled

Back in the day all games were pretty hard. And this is similar to that in that when you die, well you lose a lot. Because of the current gen of games with save points every few minutes Ive gotten use to that. This game was just too hard and frustrating for me.

Another great A50 entry from Astro
on February 18, 2015
Posted by: Nate34
from North Bay Area, Ca.
I own a few of these headsets and love them. This new white version is one of my favorites. It has the great Astro sound and fit, but this version also comes with the AG1 XBOX One chat adapter. I like that its white. Most of the headsets out there are black, but this one stands out. But just because this is branded as XBOX One dont think that its only for that console. All Astros work with PS3, PS4, XB1, 360, PC. Some just require an additional cable to connect to the controller for chat. (XB1, 360). As said before this version comes with the required adapter that goes from your XB1 controller and then to the headset giving you chat ability. The battery life is great at about 7-8 hours. But sometimes it will go dead during long gaming sessions. This is why I wanted more than one headset so I could swap. Have one charge while using the other. This avoids having to go wired when the battery needs charging (which takes on average about 4 1/2 hours for me). Ive also had great customer service with Astro so far. Some people said its terrible now that they are owned by Skull Candy. I havent noticed. If your looking for a great gaming headset this is a great choice. Thanks for reading.

I live in Napa, Ca. and as most of you know or heard we had a pretty big earthquake here. 6.0. It took 2 out of 4 of our TV's with it. So since then Ive been TV shopping. I tried a couple others (Sharp, Vizio E Series), and ended up with this M series. I love it. Every little thing that was wrong with the E works perfect here. So it was well worth the extra $130 difference to me. It has an outstanding picture, got a great review on Cnet, and I love the qwerty keyboard on the remote. If you are searching for a set that isnt going to cost a ton, with great picture, and pretty good smart features you cant go wrong here.

BioShock Infinite is a first-person shooter like you've never seen. Just ask the judges from E3 2011, where the Irrational Games title won more than 75 editorial awards, including Game Critics Award's Best of Show.Set in 1912, players assume the role of former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, sent to the flying city of Columbia on a rescue mission. His target? Elizabeth, imprisoned since childhood. During their daring escape, Booker and Elizabeth form a powerful bond ~ one that lets Booker augment his own abilities with her world-altering control over the environment. Together, they fight from high-speed Sky-Lines, in the streets and houses of Columbia, on giant zeppelins and in the clouds, all while learning to harness an expanding arsenal of weapons and abilities and immersing players in a story that is not only steeped in profound thrills and surprises, but also invests its characters with what IGN called "emotional ties (that) will continue to set the bar in gaming."

Awesome upgrade from S3, or for anyone!!
on July 19, 2013
Posted by: Nate34
from North Bay Area, Ca.
Age:35-44
Phone size:Large
I could write pages and pages about all the recent phones and carriers Ive been through, but Ill save you the drama. After trying the S4 on every major carrier I ended up getting the T-Mobile one for several reasons. The main one is the monthly price of the plan. But this review is about the phone so here we go.
I also have the Metro PCS Galaxy S3 and love that phone also, but this S4 is on another level. It is ridiculously fast with its quad core snap dragon processor, 2 gigs of ram, and Android 4.2.2 Jellybean. The 5" screen is now 1080p from the 4.8" 720p screen of the S3, and you can definitely see the difference. And you would think that the bigger screen would affect the battery life, but the S4 has a bigger 2600mah battery in it that is a major difference from the 2100mah of the S3. I use to have to hook up my S3 at the end of the day, but with the S4 it still has plenty to go at the end of the day. And Samsung was able to squeeze the bigger battery, and larger screen in without increasing the size of the whole device. They did this by making the bezel around the screen much thinner, and that is one of the things I love about it. If you look at some side by side pics between the S3 and S4 you will see what I mean.
Before and after I got the S4 Ive read several reviews complaining about its plastic build, and how it looks too much like the S3, so I want to take this chance to address my feelings on that. I for one absolutely love the way it looks, and its build. And what bugs me is that these same reviewers will praise the iPhone 5 for its build improvements. I admit the iPhone 5 is a beautiful piece of hardware, but to me it looks exactly like a larger version of the iPhone 4 and 4s. So complaining that the S4 looks like the S3 is silly to me, but enough of that I don't want to start an Android vs Apple war here.
I'm not much of a picture taker, but I can tell you that my S4 is my main camera. And if I do decide to start taking more pics having a 13mp camera built into my phone is yet another great feature.
As far as speed this phone is SUPER fast. You can literally try to bog it down and you wont be able to. It will run several tasks at a time without so much as a hiccup.
Anyway I think you get the point. If you have an S3 and aren't sure you need to upgrade I say go for it if you have an upgrade. And for those of you searching for a new phone this should be at the top of your list. I highly recommend this to anyone, whether you are an S3 user looking to upgrade, or in search of your first high end device, you cannot go wrong here. And if you go with the T-Mobile version and sign up for the Jump insurance you'll be able to upgrade twice a year if you choose to.

5 out of 5Excellent TV!
By Faceman
from Saint Paul, MN
I bought this TV after comparing several TVs at my local Best Buy store, and was a little hesitant since there were no reviews of it online yet since it is brand new. But after comparing a few options, I decided on this one and am so glad I did. The picture quality is outstanding, and I would say it is on par with some others that are quite a bit more expensive. The sound quality seems good as well. It has three HDMI inputs as well as a USB input (in addition to the other standard inputs), which is nice since some in this price range had fewer inputs. It was really easy to set up, and I'm very happy that I purchased this TV. The only negative at all is if you need more details from the user guide, the included set up instructions refer you to go online to the Sharp website, but this TV is so new that the user guide is not yet online. That wasn't a major problem since set up was really easy and settings are very straight forward. I would definitely buy this TV again if I was looking for another and recommend it to anybody.

Hello. Im still trying to get a new set after our huge earthquake in Napa, Ca. My nice 50" Samsung plasma bit the bullet. Ive been trying to find one that has a PC input since I use it to attach my laptop as well as others. And it seems like its so rare to see a pc input as well as more than 2 HDMI. And I see that this set has both.Still happy with it?

I purchased this laptop a few days ago and man do I love it. This computer has everything I was looking for in a laptop (expect for an SSD) however I felt I could live without it considering the price for this machine. I have never owned an Acer always HP, had it for 7 years and it was time for an upgrade. I do really like this laptop fast, beautiful design and enough ports not to mention the PRICE again you wont be disappointed.

5 out of 5Should be at the top of your TV shopping list!!
By Nate34
from North Bay Area, Ca.
When I started TV shopping I did a lot of research and at first bought the 55” KS8000. I liked that but when the KS9000 went on sale I exchanged it for that. One of the main reasons I went with the 9000 was the design (mainly the stand). On the 55” version of the 8000 the legs are about 44” apart. My stand that I have been using for years for several TV's is only 42” wide. So I had to use a large piece of wood on top of my stand just to be able to set up the 8000. This didnt really look all that great, and I didnt want to have to replace my stand with a wider one. And thankfully the 9000 has a more standard V shaped stand that fits and works great on my TV stand.
And the 9000 also has some improved specs and also looks better in my opinion. I didnt really like the glossy back of the 8000. Anyway I really love this TV. Ive had several Samsungs, and my last set was the JU7100. But decided it was time to upgrade. I dont really miss the lack of 3D because I think I literally only used it once on my 7100 to test it. And I do believe 3D is on its way to being extinct. Anyway the new thing now of course is HDR. And the KS9000 really takes advantage of that. It simply looks amazing. There are several Netflix shows that show what HDR is all about. And I also recently bought the new XBOX ONE S. Ive yet to buy an HDR Bluray, but I will soon. But as I mentioned there is plenty of HDR on Netflix and Amazon Video in the meantime.
One of the really cool new features this years Samsung TV's has its the new Tizen system. It is much more simple and streamlined this year. My favorite feature so far is how well the TV detects whatever device you are connecting and names it accordingly. I have a PS3, PS4, XBOX ONE, 360, and a PC laptop all connected to my TV. And it names them all without me having to do anything. The PS3 and PS4 are both automatically labeled as “Playstation”. And the XBOX One and 360 are both labeled by their full names each. I didnt have to type out names like I have before when customizing my input names. As you can tell I have a lot of things connected to my TV. And since it has 4 HDMI ports I use 2 HDMI 3 way splitters. They automatically switch to whatever source is powered on. So my system is set up like this:
HDMI 1 = Direct TV
HDMI 2 = PS3 and PS4
HDMI 3 = XBOX ONE S
HDMI 4 = PC, Wii U, and XBOX 360
HDMI 2 = PS3 and PS4
HDMI 3 = XBOX ONE S
HDMI 4 = PC, Wii U, and XBOX 360
The reason I am listing these all out is because I want to add how smart this TV is. It switches the settings, input name, and device type on HDMI 4 on its own depending on whichever one is powered on. And I have different settings for PC and the Wii U and 360. I use to have to manually switch the input type every time I went from one to the other. But when I power off a device it automatically switches all the settings and input types on its own.
Of course a review of a TV without talking about picture quality isnt complete so here we go. Simply put its amazing. The colors and picture are awesome. It also has very good motion handling, especially if you set Auto Motion plus to Auto. But this gives you the dreaded SOE (Soap Opera Effect). Which I really dont care for. So I use a custom setting for Auto Motion (Blur 3, Judder 3, and LED Clear Off). This gives it very good motion handling with very little SOE.
As you read above I am a gamer. And one of the main things I look for when TV shopping is the input lag (or lack thereof). And this is one of the best TV's released this year for low input lag. In Game mode the lag is only 20.5 ms. This is great, I dont notice any lag at all. I was also thinking of getting the Sony X930D but decided not to for a few reasons, one of those is that it has about 54ms of lag. This isnt terrible, but would be noticeable in my opinion.
The other main reason I went with the Samsung over the Sony is that I am still not sold on the Android Smart platform. I tested it on a 2015 Sony and it was just too buggy. I have read it is better this year, but in my opinion the new Tizen is much better.
Another thing I look for in TV's is a good USB media player for videos on hard drives. And Im happy to say that the Samsung recognizes and plays every single file type I have tested. It also has SRT subtitle support.
So overall I am very happy with this TV. It is by far the nicest set I have ever owned and I look forward to years of use with it. If you are looking for a new HDR 4K TV this should be on the top of your list. If you want a cheaper alternative go with the KS8000. Just be aware on the 55” version of the 44” wide legs. On the larger versions the 8000 has optional closer leg mounts, but for some reason Samsung did not do this on the 55” version. Anyway thanks for reading. If you have any questions or comments feel free. Ill try to answer and respond.

Im the review writer, needed to add info.
September 23, 2016
The one issue I am having is that the source list and its icons go blank every couple days, sometimes more. This is a known issue and apparently Samsung is looking into it. As a work around you can hold down the power button on the remote to force it to reboot. This brings the source list back, but its still an issue. Its only the upper source list, the lower one doesnt go away. If you own the set you'll know what I mean by the upper one. Thankfully this is an issue that can be fixed via firmware update, but as of 1131 (9-23-16) it still happens. If it gets fixed Ill try to update my review.

Battery question
November 3, 2016
I know these have better battery life than the previous gens but have you had them actually run out on you? I have 2 sets of Gen 2's now that I just swap out when one headset dies and then start charging it. I use my A50's for all my TV audio not just gaming so they run out after about 5 hours or so, so Im hoping that the Gen 3's will always have enough battery to get through the day as long as I set them back on the charger when not using them. Thanks

I have owned A40s and currently own a pair of last gen A50s. The new A50s make a lot of great improvements over last gen. No chat cable is great and the docking station acts as an external sound card for the PC and does not require an optical cable for full 7.1 which is awesome. Audio quality seems to be better that the old A50s. I would occasionally get some low buzzing noise in the old model but the new ones are crisp and have no such issues so far. Battery life is significantly improved and the auto shut off is a welcome addition(the headset senses that it has been put down and shuts off after 15 seconds. Once it senses it have been moved it turns right back on. Usually the audio is already coming in by the time I put it on my head). Build quality is super solid. Expensive but they sound great and are a quality product. I am not wild about the color scheme but I can deal with it.

I know these have better battery life than the previous gens but have you had them actually run out on you? I have 2 sets of Gen 2's now that I just swap out when one headset dies and then start charging it. I use my A50's for all my TV audio not just gaming so they run out after about 5 hours or so, so Im hoping that the Gen 3's will always have enough battery to get through the day as long as I set them back on the charger when not using them. Thanks

What does it mean NOT compatible with Verizon & Sprint? I cannot talk to someone that has Sprint or Verizon service?
This only means it is a GSM only phone so if you were on Sprint of Verizon your sim card would not work. You can call and message anyone on any carrier with it.

What are my options to wirelessly connect 2 hd tvs to the same directv box to broadcast the same show?
You would need a splitter that takes one HDMI signal and splits it into 2.

Looking to replace comcast modem want to buy a compatible modem
I also had to replace my comcast modem and have tried 2 different brands since then. This first one I got was a Zoom, and then later bought a Motorola. Ive had less issues with the Motorola. But Im not sure if they carry that same model. Its been a couple years. Depends on what you want to pay. I see the Motorola SB6121 is only 69.99 right now and has excellent reviews.

Modem/Router
I am trying to stream Netflix to two different televisions.. Do I need to purchase a second Modem?
If so, will cox cable recognize a second modem? In other words, must I pay more and register a second Modem with them?

NO, you dont need 2 modems. All you need is 1 modem, and a wireless router. Then set up the wireless on the router, then any device that has internet can connect to the router by searching for wireless and entering your password.
