Clive Barker's Jericho Order Now

I want to give it a 4 stars but I need to offset the other people who gave it a low rating so 5 stars it is. I have played GTA4, COD world at war, and Jericho's graphic is a little better than those two which is quite good. game play is fun fun fun and challenging. You need to learn where to place your swat and who is best to use when facing sets of enemies. The game is long and I couldn't put down the controller. help me!!!Get more detail about Clive Barker's Jericho.

Lips Right now

Awesome game that allowed for fun for hours. I would suggest getting this version because it comes with the two Microphones and then downloading your favorite songs from the other versions online. There is a HUGE online database for songs that can be accessed through XBOX live and was great! I bought all three game versions but after the party realized that I/we really only liked a few songs from each so I just downloaded those and returned the game!

The ability to karaoke to mp3s is really cool but I would suggest using a small thumb drive with only the songs you want on it. The game struggles to publish a song list when you plug in an ipod or a Zune for that matter (we tried both) with a couple thousand songs on it. Overall the game is solid and was a huge hit at out party!Get more detail about Lips.

Lowest Price Halo 3

The game was solid. Single player was decently lengthed, if my memory serves me, at around 15 hours of gameplay. The story was entertaining and filled with a variety of circumstances that really kept the player on the edge of suspense. Multiplayer was a blast, if unbalanced, certain weapons being vastly overpowered. And co-op. The single player was long enough, epic enough, and fun enough to make the co-op experience probably one of the most satisfying gaming experiences of my life, and I've done a lot of gaming.Get more detail about Halo 3.

Low Price Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera

I had received this for Christmas a few years back and I got to say I'm impressed. The camera is compact and light and has a quality build, unfortunately there is no way of mounting it on anything so very often you'll probably have a falling camera if your not careful...after all it is NOT wireless. At this point in the year 2010, not many games support this camera, in fact it seems like the avatar thing has taken over all together, there are games that still support this product and the one's that I know of are listed as follows:

UNO
Burnout Paradise
Rainbow Six Vegas
Rainbow Six Vegas 2
Bankshot Billiards 2
Hardwood Spades
Hardwood Hearts
Hardwood Backgammon
Texas Hold'em
and amongst others

Video chats are also a feature but it's not anything to get excited about. I haven't even used it once.

Final statement: This product received poor support from developers, and not to mention probably will become obsolete when Kinect arrives this fall, I would suggest passing on this product unless you are certain you will be using it.Get more detail about Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera.

Save Xbox 360 Pro System 60GB w/Wireless Controller

The Xbox 360 I received had carpet in the all of the air ducts and so i took it apart and cleaned it, hoping that I still would have a good system for a great price. Unfortunately, A little less than a month later the drive won't read my Xbox 360 discs half of the time, and so I will need to install a new one soon.You would think the company that gets such favorable ratings on Amazon so much, Mister Money, would take greater care in making sure they are sending you a decent used system, unfortunately this was not the case. I would recommend just buying new instead of going through all this hassle, Especially with the new more powerful 360 models just released.Get more detail about Xbox 360 Pro System 60GB w/Wireless Controller.

Discount Banjo-Kazooie - Nuts and Bolts (Platinum)

As soon as I got it, I gave it to my husband, since I bought it for him....He would NOT put it down, then my lil one learned how to play it and they were both like in a 'zone' lol cuz they would not stop playing this game....But......for some reason, it got scratched,so now the game can not be played :o(.... I dont know if it happened in the XBox itself, as in the lense, could this happen? Is there a way I could return it for another one? Is it too late? Either way, is a great game.Get more detail about Banjo-Kazooie - Nuts and Bolts (Platinum).

Cheapest Brütal Legend

Okay so I picked this game up about a month ago because I downloaded the demo and it seemed like it was going to kick ass. So I thought...The beginning of the game was fun to me and then I slowly progressed through the game and then came the RTS (Real Time Strategy) aspect of the game and I just became extremely frustrated with it. I've never been a fan of RTS mostly because I suck at it but I just find it annoying. The only thing that saves this game from being a complete failure is the unique world and all it's surroundings. Although the story was really corny I actually enjoyed it. I also liked driving around jamming to some old school metal songs while collecting things. I tried so hard to finish the game just because I hate not completing things but I wanted to throw the remote through the tv on the last mission so I gave up. Ditch the RTS and this game would be badass!Get more detail about Brütal Legend.

Cheap Dead Space

For $20 this game is a steal. Can't wait for part two. This is one of the few games that once i played through it I had to get all the trophies and finish it completely. If you haven't played it and like fps games then this is one to play. Although it's not an fps there are good reasons you see your character because all in game menus and life bars, etc. are on his suit. I played through this and then bioshock and i think i like this more. Both are great games for cheap now.Get more detail about Dead Space.

Buying Split / Second

Split Second is a fast game where you literally have to react in a split second. Explostions, building falling down (which can create new routes), helicopters dropping bombs, and much more, which left me saying "WOW". The storyline of this game, is where you are in a "reality show" which has dangerous races for the competitors to race in. These races are extremely chaotic and I find myself crashing several times in one race. The main objective is to win the race, and how you do that is drifting, which creates points, which can be used in explosions, new routes, shortcuts, and if you save up enough points, you can create big explosions, which can end up wrecking 5 competitors or none. So explosions can wreck your competitors, which gets you ahead.
The graphics in this game a amazing to look at and keeps me on the edge of my seat. This game is great racing game and is great with multiple player.Get more detail about Split / Second.

Purchase Viva Piñata (Platinum Family Hits)

The amount of color simply on the box is astounding, and it really shows in the game too.

This game is as lighthearted as you want it to be, but if you want to be serious about your gardening and truly maximize profits, then you can do as you please.

There is A LOT of variety in this game. Initially, like all games, you start with very little, but once you catch on and start leveling up and doing new things (thus unlocking new items and pinatas), you will have a blast trying to get new stuff.

This game looks like a kiddie game (similar to Rare's other recent work, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts), but it really isn't. Like N&B, you can give a little kid the controller and they might find their way around (or you can simply plug in a second controller and give them a helping hand cooperatively). What I find most impressive is the amount of detail given to everything, things that young kids will easily miss: the descriptions of EVERY single item in the game, the clever species names, the witty dialogue, the interesting story that is unlocked as you go along, the trial and errors, etc. I've been playing for a great deal now, and I was astounded to realize one of my pinatas had a special variant simply because I decided to feed him an apple for the hell of it. Things like that may easily be overlooked by young ones, but they won't miss out on the bright colors, and cute pinatas for sure.

This game will have you working around the clock (well, not literally, in the game world at least) to tend to your garden and everything inside. If you want to keep making money and leveling up, you will not have much of a break as the action is nonstop. Thus, you will always have a difficult time putting down the controller and saving your game for next time.

Lastly, don't ignore this game because you are not a gardener/breeder/landscaper in real life. I am none of those, and find this game immensely enjoyable. Like all games, it is not for everybody, but it is worth trying. As a cheap Platinum Hit (one you can play with your family nevertheless), there is nothing to go wrong.
Also, I have not played the sequel yet (Trouble in Paradise), but I am led to believe it is very similar with some extras and maybe a bit more plot. I, personally, think it best to start at the roots with Viva Pinata, then if you enjoy it, you continue with the sequel, and if you don't, then maybe VP: Party Animals is more for you ( :P this is more of a kiddie game with simple gameplay, it got decent reviews, not like VP and VP: TiP).Get more detail about Viva Piñata (Platinum Family Hits).

Order Xbox 360 Snap-On Cooling Fan with Temperature Sensor

Anyone with an Xbox 360 (aside from Microsoft's latest version) knows that the console gets hot and gets loud. This fan clips on easily and can help cool down the Xbox.

Where To Buy Tom Clancy's HAWX

This is a pretty good game and worth the price. My son and I have played and it gets pretty hard in some levels but overall is fun and realistic. It is more difficult to play when the flight assist is off and the views make it hard to line up a target but still enjoy playing. Overall a game worth having.

Shop For Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows

The built quality of this controller is excellent, over-all I prefer it to the other options, although they can be more programmable the Xbox controller typically requires no setup at all which can be nice. One thing to note, which is why the product lost one star, is that the wireless receiver pulls a lot of power and it simply would not work properly until I bought a powered USB hub to plug it into. This also affected my other USB devices to some extent, but since I was running out of ports anyhow I went ahead and made the hub purchase, and now everything works flawlessly.Get more detail about Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows.

Battlefield: Bad Company Top Quality

I was a little surprised with this game. It's ok, but I didn't enjoy it as much as any of the COD games or the game's sequel BC2.

Fable 2 This instant

Fable 2 has to me one of my all time favorite RPG action games. I love all the interactions you can have in the towns with the townsfolk. Yes my female character went evil, and people were very scared of her. I mean eating meat makes you evil in this game... funny! I real time fighting is fun especially when you mix up magic and good old hack and slash. Slow down time and start swinging wildly into a mass of baddies. Good times. The story was fun and heart string tugging (when you see your dog again after years and years apart) My only complaints seem to be things that Fable 3 is going to address. So maybe the future Fable game will be my new all time favorite.Get more detail about Fable 2.

Deadly Premonition Decide Now

Before buying Deadly premonition I read many reviews many good many bad I bought this game a week ago and when I play it it feels like the first time i play it every time , this game drops through so many plot points it'll keep you excited till the end of the game.
Deadly premonition is hard to label in a specific genre its an open world survival-horror simulation game.
The basic story of Deadly premonition tells about Francis York Morgan an FBI agent on his way to Greenevale a small town in Washington that has been washed over with grief and depression due to the death of Anna A local loved one.
The simulation open world part of the game is very fun due to the numerous towns folk and mini games like darts and racing.

Driving can get boring and almost tough due to the lack of a waypoint system but your character will engage in conversation with himself and his mysterious friend "Zack" that range from music 80's movies books and many other interesting topics.

One of the supernatural realities in Greenevale is what seems to be very influenced by the other world in the silent hill game it successes to give off the same creepy feel. the fighting to say the least is why a gave this review a 4 star although combat has never played a big part in most survival horror games (Except newer titles Dead Space , Resident Evil) it can get a little boring and melee weapons will break unbelievably easy.
The monsters will give off a freaky edge during the beginning of the game but after a while the horrible voice acting of the monsters settles in and will make your view of them go to comic and stupid.

Deadly premonition for the most part is an amazing game that any 360 owner should buy or at least rent if you want to be sure of what your buying , but I myself highly recommend this game.Get more detail about Deadly Premonition.

Lowest Price Ear Force XLC Stereo Headset with Mic

i got this headset for 1 reason. My friends all had turtle beaches, and i wanted to improve like they did. My friend joe has X1's. He can hear everything and i mean everything. So i decided for a cheaper way to hear ninja pro.

Overall, they are decent. If u have everyone muted, and are very still ( yes still ) u may be able to detect ninja pro, but take it to court. i was just playing cod mw2 search and there were 2-3 times when i felt deaf after watching the kill cam. With my buddies x1's he would have hear them a mile before. And i am constantly getting made fun of or laughed at ( in a friend way) for not being able to hear a thing.
If they dont have ninja pro on u can hear some big footsteps, but u have to (with the character) stop moving and hope u heard correctly. Sometimes i can guess where they are, but thats only happened a few time.


The Worst thing is the chat!!! Oh my goodnes. Eveytime my teammates say something i have to go to the game settings and turn down the volume to where i cant even hear footsteps, but only my teammates. I really cant suggest these to u even if ur on a budget. They make a decent music headset, but if ur only using these for music, get some dedicated music headphones. im saving my $$ to buy X11's or X31's and thats what i suggest to u too. Hope this can help.Get more detail about Ear Force XLC Stereo Headset with Mic.

Low Price Fight Night: Round 4

First off I'll try to make this short and sweet.

This game is superior to Round 3 in EVERY way... it's also superior to all MMA games I've played including UFC undisputed 2009 AND 2010 which I own and have barely touched after getting this game. It's made me understand why boxing's called THE SWEET SCIENCE, literally... it's rekindled my love of boxing... which had gone to MMA the last 15 years.

Once you start to master this game, which takes observation, intunition and ability... it is incredibly rewarding!!!.. and the game is totally fair in that as you improve you will see the result... you will be the one bringing the hammer of the gods on just one punch to ANYONE, Ali, Tyson, Leonard, Robinson, etc... perfect punching, perfect timing... in facts It's improved my hand eye coordination.


THE SHORT FACTS ARE:

-Character creation is great... you can REALLY make your guy for the way you wanna fight.
-Licensed characters are plenty AND awesome, the likeness is AMAZING! both in look and in fight style.
-Interfase Is the best I've ever seen in a sports game (that's including Madden, MLB 2K, NBA live and UFC Undisputed series) it's super intuitive and comfortable.
-Legacy mode is well thought out, challenging and exciting... I've retired twice as the GOAT, with two different fighters because I enjoyed going through it so much.
-VS. mode is better than anything out there... great fun and WAAAY WAY better than any fighting genre game (which I am a fan of, including DOA, Tekken, MK and Soul Calibur series), if you like fighting games, MAN!
-Graphic are WAY up there with the best I've ever seen in any genre.
-This is one of those games that will NEVER tire you... trust me on this I have a lot of games on my 360 and this one has been inside or near the console for MONTHS now.

If you like either: Action games, Fighting games OR Sports games you owe it to yourself to check this out... EA outdid themselves on this one... it's my favourite game of the last year and in my top 5 of all time... and that's including when I played 2600, NES, SNES and PS!!!Get more detail about Fight Night: Round 4.

I like this one!Get more detail about Bully: Scholarship Edition.

Discount Final Fantasy XI: Ultimate Collection

I would have been pretty satisfied if my package came a week later, but, Amazon and their advertising shoved Amazon.com PRIME into the free-shipping and at 2 days and waving the original fees, 9.99 for a DVD of three or four expansions was an excellent price!

I have played the game on and off for about several years and I dont have the original disc to play with. So, I consolidated my losses into one DVD rom. I got the DVD ROM on time after breaking open the packinging the thing would not work.

That's strange, I pulled it out, put it back in, Waitied and nothing. Is it my DVD Disc Drive? Put it in, wait, the light is flashing and nothing.

So, I get my hands on the manual disc, place it in and VOILA. Pops right up. Okay, so I figured I'd have some kind of solace in using the game on another PC. So, I put it into three other PCs with working old and new drives, and nothing.

You can paint me pretty frustrated at getting back a defective product and the turn around for amazon is a few days until I'd get a replacement. That is unnacceptable. They should return your product much sooner instead of shoving useless annual things for a service we won't use for one time buys. Amazon has lost my business in software, I am going to game stop or walmart.Get more detail about Final Fantasy XI: Ultimate Collection.

Lego Indiana Jones 2. The Adventure Continues Top Quality

I own five different LEGO games across PS2, DS, and PS3, and I enjoy playing this game every bit as much as the others, but this game is too buggy.

It usually freezes up at the end of a level or the end of the loading screen when switching movies. I can play anywhere from 5 minutes to 3 hours until the game reliably freezes and I have to force my PS3 to shut down, losing my game. I've never had this problem on my PS3.

I've given up playing my game before finishing the story mode, a true rarity for these LEGO titles. Would not recommend.Get more detail about Lego Indiana Jones 2. The Adventure Continues.

BioShock Order Now

Bioshock is a very unique, very fun first person shooter with an engaging, dystopian storyline and an environment that oozes with feeling. Set in an underwater city called Rapture, you use a combination of weapons and genetically enhanced abilities known as Plasmids to accomplish tasks that slowly reveal the mysteries of Rapture and its apparent destruction from within.

Bioshock has been endlessly praised for its environment, and this praise is justified. Rapture is an isolated, haunting place that throws the player into roller coaster of feelings with its odd mix of the familiar and the bizarre. The game looks incredible with beautifully rendered environments and amazing effects (dig the water!) and the performance on the PS3 was practically flawless and glitch-free. While after a while the look of the areas could sometimes borderline on monotonous, everything is kept fresh with the incredible sense of time and place. Bioshock takes place in 1960, and Rapture, as a city built by those who chose to flee American society and create a type of Ayn Rand-esque Utopia for themselves, retains that old time feel of mid 20th Century America in a way that, despite its startling contrast with its steampunk backgrounds, still feels very natural and genuine.

Another area where Bioshock really excels is in its sound design. This game begs to be played with surround sound. The excellent sound effects and ambient noises come from every angle and really help create a very high level of suspense and intensity. Hearing enemies from a distance but not being able to actually see them was very creepy, and the way my subwoofer rumbled when a Big Daddy was in the vicinity got my heart racing every time. Again, the developers have done a splendid job of creating a fantastic environment that stays in your head after you put the controller down, and the sound is a huge part of this.

The biggest flaw of Bioshock for me was the ability to re-spawn after getting killed and have the enemies be in the state you left them before you died. This made pretty much every enemy, with the exception of the final boss, beatable just by simply re-engaging them over and over again, as they wouldn't recover their health. A system of checkpoints, where you'd return to a save point and have to start the fight all over again, would have made the game much more challenging. From my understanding, the PS3 version has a patch that allows you turn off the vita-chambers (aka re-spawn points) so that you can do just that, but I was unaware of this until after I beat the game.

Also, the game description on the box touts the fact that you must make philosophical choices to determine the fate of the civilians of Rapture, and I've heard other's discuss this element of the game as well. In reality, this is a very light aspect of the game and not very deep or involved at all. Especially right after playing a game like Dragon Age: Origins where you have to make so many very difficult choices that have immediate and long term effects on your overall experience with the game, the "choices" of Bioshock seem like philosophy for middle schoolers in comparison. So while the decision making is an element of the game, I don't feel it's a strong point and feel there are lot of other great things about Bioshock that FAR outshine this aspect.

Overall, I really enjoyed Bioshock a lot and would highly recommend it. It has a great combination of strong gameplay, intriguing story, fantastic environments, intense action and hardcore suspense to keep you coming back for more. Turn the sound up and enjoy!

Xbox 360 Intercooler TS - black Right now

I've owned this little unit (white) for one year, and, as others have reported, the noise level is significant. If you use your XBox360 for streaming movies, then you will probably be disappointed like my wife and and have been with the extra fan noise. In spite of the increased airflow through the game console, our XBox360 still suffered a second red-ring-of-death (RROD) in its first 2.5 years of life. To top all of that off, this Nyko Intercooler TS unit has died an early death at one-year-old. The fans are fine. It turns out that something in the circuitry has failed permanently, and I am not convinced that the purchase of another one of these units is worth the additional (albeit small) expense.Get more detail about Xbox 360 Intercooler TS - black.

This product is great! It shipped quickly and it worked great. It isn't wireless but the wire is long enough to go about a few feet away from the Xbox 360 system. Remember you won't have any use for it if you do not have an internet connection for your Xbox or points to access it.Get more detail about Xbox 360 Max Live Headset.
