Pretty impressed

Sharp AQUOS 46" 1080p LCD HDTV
Sharp AQUOS 46" 1080p LCD HDTV

Pros: Buy this if you want a really nice LCD for a low price.

Cons: Inputs don't stay renamed after devices are turned off. Not a big concern if you don't have a lot of them.

Overall Review: Newegg is amazing.

Most Critical Review

don't bother...

split fish GAMEWARE Split Fish Wireless Dual Frag Pro for PS3
split fish GAMEWARE Split Fish Wireless Dual Frag Pro for PS3

Pros: I finally got it after much anticipation. I read the reviews, I googled for optimal settings (didn't find any), and I charged it to my newegg card. Everything is going to work out, right?

Cons: Upgrading the firmware is a little complicated for a console user. I could do it, but it just doesn't feel right. This is a controller for a console. OK so after upgrading the firmware and playing with this, it truly does feel like it emulates the analog stick movement. In no way did I ever get the feeling I was playing with a mouse. I felt like I had a mouse sitting on top of the PS3 joystick. Quick and smooth motions are nonexistent. I think playing with this new controller made me better at using the analog sticks. I spent $30 on batteries, $100 on this controller. I move my mouse up in the game, it goes up and to the right. I move it down, it goes down and to the left. Changing settings hardly fixed this problem at all.

Overall Review: This thing sucks and I feel like an idiot for every trying. A mouse controller for the PS3 IS too good to be true. It feels nothing like a mouse on the PC. I used it for a couple hours and I have given up. I think I spent more time with the firmware than actually playing with it. I came back to it after one use and now it's dead. Now I have to ship it back. Once you know...you newegg...or you try to.

Looks good, but lacks newness

Call of Duty: Ghosts PlayStation 4
Call of Duty: Ghosts PlayStation 4

Pros: The game looks good and seems rather balanced.

Cons: Maps are typically too big and they really don't stand out at all. I've played for a few days and the only map I remember is like a castle. And it sucks. They make the COD maps bigger with every game and it makes no sense. There are also no noticeable differences that set this game apart from the others. Honestly it seems like the others had more fun because of the killstreaks. Now it seems like everyone can get a personal dog rather easily and the other killstreaks are just meh. I play it and have fun, but it won't blow you away at all.

Overall Review: They developers of COD really need to think out of the box for the next one or their die hard fans will completely look past the next watered down version of what was the most popular game around. We've logged countless hours into the franchise and the least we can hope for is something different with our new purchase. We got none of that with Ghosts.

OPTOMA GT700 WXGA 1280x800 2300 ANSI Lumens 3D Compatible Game Time DLP Projector

Pros: 1080p, Bright, loud enough speaker, crisp enough to not need a screen, plug and play. Pre-calibrated settings for cinema, game, etc. I never heard it make a sound. It stays pretty cool, great product. The packing!!!! WOW just the packing was sweet. You could have dropped the box off my roof. Awesome all the way around. I considered an Epson, but wanted the 1080p.

Cons: Remote is kinda dumb looking with buttons that could be sized differently. Whatever. Who cares. Only con is that I am at work right now instead of at home, projecting glorious scenes!!

Overall Review: I watched Planet Earth last night on a 13' screen. THIRTEEN FEET. I ran out of tape measure with my 12' tape!! YEAHHHH if you are thinking about getting this, GET IT!! Why buy a TV for twice as much? My 46" Sharp Aquos from Newegg now looks like a postage stamp in the living room. Going to mount this and get it plugged into my Onkyo 7.1 surround sound (from newegg too) eventually. Right now it's on the floor and it's simply breathtaking. I was constantly changing games, movies, just to see everything so huge. WOW!!!! WOW!!! BLACK OPTOMA BLACK OPTOMA

woo yea

Pros: i have 4 of these mounted on the walls so my living room & dining room get perfect sound throughout. sports games are sweet.

Cons: now i want a bigger tv screen...46 is getting outdone by the SS

Overall Review: i don't see why you would pay more for anything else, mine has an ipod dock and everything....7.1

Just Purchased, Has Everything, Looks Amazing.

ASUS Laptop M50 Series Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 4GB Memory 250GB HDD NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GS 15.4" Windows Vista Home Premium M50Vm-X1
ASUS Laptop M50 Series Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 4GB Memory 250GB HDD NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GS 15.4" Windows Vista Home Premium M50Vm-X1

Pros: Just purchased, hoping to get it tomorrow with my NewEgg preferred card. I wanted 4GB of RAM, integrated webcam, a lot of video memory, and wireless N capability, o and a nice black finish. Shopped circuit city, best buy, and newegg. This laptop looks to have everything and more (touchpad). I cannot wait to install 64 bit Vista and unleash some games on it. This will keep me occupied while on the road. CANNOT FREAKIN WAIT!

Cons: Someone said it only has 512 vram? I hope not. A gig and 512 are not to be confused. Maybe they didn't have the 64-bit vista installed? We'll see.

Overall Review: It looks beautiful. Asus is the way to go. I WANT IT NOW!!!!
