Great Game

Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan Nintendo 3DS Game
Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan Nintendo 3DS Game

Pros: This game has an inventive and balanced class arrangement, innovative and well-planned dungeons, and gorgeous imagery, music, and sound. New to the series, the game music is played as recordings of live instruments, and also all enemy monsters are animated.

Cons: This being a game of discovery and exploration, replay value is low, though there are new things to do after finishing a game and there is a large amount of content already. The 3D effects are in my opinion, weak, being used mostly on flat panels.

Overall Review: Legends of the Titan is the latest of four games under the Etrian Odyssey title, In Japan is called Sekaiju no Meikyuu (Labyrinth of World Tree). These games are dungeon-crawlers, so if that doesn't match your taste, this game is likely not good for you. Each game is separate from the other, so that playing just one of them or out of order is no issue.

Pros: I love this start menu mainly because it favors keyboard navigation, and i like that it covers the whole screen, so i need to move the mouse less. System tools and default task manager are easier to access. The default task manager is also greatly enhanced. win 7 file explorer is reused.

Cons: Haven't found a way to add "power off" to the start menu. Straight out of the disk the system was choppy, but since updating the OS and drivers, i have been getting much better use out of win 8. Claim to be no expert, but i feel a new system is bound to have inconsistencies. I have no use for any touch-based features/programs, and live tiles annoy me. Thankfully i can remove them from start menu.

Overall Review: Seems like half the negative response is on the start menu. I feel it's about as useful as ones in previous editions, since the default shortcuts can be deleted and replaced with other programs. Isn't the real organization work done via the file explorer anyways? Not sure how a system based on Windows 7 is greatly worse than it.

Pros: Works good for me.

Cons: Have no problems.

Overall Review: Don't have a huge volume of data to store, nor is speed performance an issue for me.

Pros: Free gift is great! =) Needed it to reduce cost of my new computer. Have no real problems with this memory.

Cons: My BIOS says this is 1333 speed memory not 1600. I feel the heat spreader design is kinda meh. Not my style.

Pros: Low price, good performance. Been able to handle everything i need it for very well.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: I don't put this through a whole lot of work, just a few games and videos. Tried to avoid a cpu/gpu combo.

Pros: After over a month's daily use, still works well for all my parts. Started right up the first time. Good features make this a great board.

Cons: Only one: the north and south bridges get really warm, while the rest of my computer runs cool. First experience with a new board, so dunno if that's a problem or normal.

Overall Review: Chose this board for its forward capability and PS/2 port - still have PS/2 keyboards and mice.

Carrier botched delivery, but free replacement

I received an email telling me that my order was damaged en route, along with numerous others packed on the same vehicle. Due to that, the eventual replacement arrived later than my original order, but I was charged nothing extra and what I received was exactly what I wanted and undamaged. No harm done.
