This is an XB1 exclusive that for some reason doesn't get a lot of talk. Its a very cool game and looks the next gen part. As an added bonus you get the old X360 classic Alan Wake as a DL code.

A sprawling metropolis in the not-so-distant future. Premise: A catastrophic event has left the city in ruins and most of its inhabitants are either dead or have been transformed into horrifying mutants. For most people, being dropped down into these kinds of circumstances would mean certain death. Not only are you fighting for survival in a postapocalyptic city, but you're attempting to escape the nightmarish transformation that has claimed most of the survivors. Good thing you're not like most people.Dive into the open-world shooter of Sunset Overdrive, and prove that you've got what it takes to survive catastrophe. With a knack for traversing the ruined city with hyper agility, it's a simple matter to survive postapocalyptic conditions. When it comes to the mutants, not only are you escaping their transformation, but you've found your true calling — mutant destroyer. A fully loaded arsenal of overpowered weapons back you up and make it totally clear that the end of days is just the beginning for you. It's your turn to star in this end-of-the-world storyline.

Well between black Friday sales and store cards as gifts I finally got an Xbox One S this year. So playing some of its exclusives and even though this was a launch game it is very good and lots of fun. Its dirt cheap now so if per chance you have not played it give it a go.

Digital download of at least 14 GB required to play. Download files to either the Nintendo Switch console’s internal storage or a microSD card (sold separately). Download requirements may change, visit rockstargames.com/lanoire/storage for details. If using a microSD card, minimum 60 MB/sec read speed required. A dark and violent crime thriller set against the backdrop of 1940’s Los Angeles. Amid the post-war boom of Hollywood's Golden Age, Cole Phelps, an LAPD detective is thrown headfirst into a city drowning in its own success. Corruption is rampant, the drug trade is exploding, and murder rates are at an all-time high. In his fight to climb the ranks and do what's right, Phelps must unravel the truth behind a string of arson attacks, racketeering conspiracies and brutal murders, battling the L.A. underworld and even members of his own department to uncover a secret that could shake the city to its rotten core.

A really compentent port of a great classic

Other than the angst over the fact they didn't put the entire game on the Cartridge, this is an excellent port. Runs well, looks a bit better than the PS360 versions and added some nice Switch only features like touch and motion. I got it for $30 can't go wrong at that price.

The best JRPG series keeps getting better

This is now the 3rd game in this excellent JRPG series. The plot and such are all new so playing the previous games is not required to know whats going on here. The combat system is greatly improved and simplified. The story is strong and the game eases you into the many systems so its not overwhelming. All in all a great entry and it took till year 3 to get Xeno on WiiU so awesome we get it on Switch in year one..

ASUS USB-AC53 Nano USB Wifi Adapter delivers an instant Plug and Play providing 802.11ac Wifi standard for desktops and laptops. The dual-band wireless AC1200 USB adapter features 2.4GHz and 5GHz connectivity coupled with MU-MIMO technology.
 

What speed are you able to get with this through a USB 2.0 port? USB 2.0 is rated up to 480 mbps, but usually you don't get this level of throughput due to a variety of factors.

Not sure as I used it on USB3 which is does support on USB3 with a decent newer WIFI router I was able to connect 802.11AC @ 896mb. So it was zippy. USB2 actual throughput is about 1/2 of what is specified so you will likely get about 240mb/sec via USB2

The NETGEAR AC1750 Smart WiFi 5 Router with external antennas delivers extremely fast WiFi. With AC1750 WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet speeds, and high-powered external antennas, this router offers ultimate performance in wireless coverage for large homes with 12 or more wireless devices. It gets 3x faster access than similar 802.11n.
 

Will the router handle fire stick Or roku?

I wouldn't see why not. They should be operating on standard wifi this router supports 802.11ABCN which is about every standard. The wifi bandwidth on the router is great so should be no problem streaming HD or even multiple HD as long as your internet speed is fast.

Display, charge and play on your Nintendo Switch console with this Insignia dock kit. Its charging port with USB 2.0 output powers a controller and any other compatible device, and its HDMI cable connects your Switch to an HDTV. This Insignia dock kit includes a USB-C AC adapter for power outlet charging.
 

Does this device let you play in table top mode if you unplug the hdmi cable but still charge the Switch and play at the sametime?

It will not (that is one feature the Nyko supports). The power supply will work to charge you Switch so if you use a stand like the Hori one then at least you can use this charger when in portable mode.

The Samsung Countertop Microwave makes preparing multiple dishes effortless with 1.4 cu. ft. capacity. Designed with a scratch-resistant interior, this modern microwave features Sensor Cooking options which automatically provide optimal cooking results.
 

How hard is the OPEN button to push? How noisy is the door when closing it? Is the light bulb situated so we can change it ?(GE's you need a technician to replace theirs)

On the Black-Stainless model (which really only has stainless on the edge trim) the button works quite nicely. Easy to push. I noticed on just the straight black version the button was not as smooth. The door seems to close quietly and smoothly. Overall I was quite impressed with the build quality of what is otherwise an inexpensive unit. The light is decent and comes on when opening the door (some unit do not). Not sure what has to be done to change it.

Ideal for use with desktop performance towers, all-in-one computers, consumer-grade NAS devices or desktop RAID arrays, this Seagate internal hard drive features a 1TB capacity, so you can store plenty of digital files.
 

Would this fit in my HD bay on my 2008 intel imac?

Just wanted to know for sure if this would fit. My previous HD dimensions were 3.5 x 1 . This product is 4 x .5 .
It will fit 3.5 x 1 is the form factor and 4x5 must be the actual inches of the external case if it is a 3.5 inch hard drive bay this should fit.

Warantee discrepancy

Website says 5 years, inside the box it says 2 years... what's the deal?
Seagate only does 5 years on server line HDs which generally cost more. 2 years is still pretty generous as most other manufactures have gone to 1 year on desktop hard drives.

Is this Win 7 64bit compatible

The Barracuda 1TB Internal Serial ATA Hard Drive 7200rpm 32meg buffer is this compatible with Win 7 64bit
Sure if you motherboard supports SATA this drive will work fine with Win7 x64

dell dimension 8400

will this hard drive be compatible...i am already upgrading my memory to 4gb...thanx
As long as your computer/mother board supports SATA (Serial ATA HD) it should support this drive. All newer SATA drives work with older SATA standards so even if you have a stat 1.5gb controller it will work fine with newer SATA 3 or 6 drives. Sometimes older BIOSes will only support 2TB but you should be fine as this is a 1TB drive. If you have the older IDE connecter (a wide flat ribbon cable) then you will need a PATA drive which you may have to order online as they are getting pretty rare at the stores.
