Excellent RPG

Dragon's Dogma Playstation3 Game
Dragon's Dogma Playstation3 Game

Pros: This game is excellent, it's the best RPG game I've seen in a very long time. This actually is better than Dragon Age Origins. I would go as far as to say that this is better than some PC games I've played. The gameplay is smooth & the fighting is superb. I like how you can revive your allies & that you're able to trade them up as much as often provided that other players are leveling them up. The game is based off a community of players who play the game. Their Ally is put into a system pool for others to use at whatever lvl you left your ally off at the last time you logged off. If a player should "rent" the ally then that player can keep the ally for however long they wish, until they return later to switch out for a higher level ally. The allies you rent do not lvl up. However, as you are playing, so are the others. And while they are lvling up their characters & allies then you have a chance to rent higher lvl allies to meet your current lvl or higher. This comes in handy.

Cons: There is a few small cons. The game itself has no specifics in the questlogs. There are no clues in order to complete your quests. You get a quest and it logs it into a questlog. Then highlighting that quest will mark the area on your map. However it does not tell where you're looking for the quest item at on a local map.(dungeon map if applicaple) The Bounty Boards that give quests arfe vague, and you do have to use a little bit of brain power to figure them out. But that's part of an RPG. The game also has a Pay 2 Win feature. You can go onto the PSN or Xbox stores and buy Rift Crystals in order to "Rent" your allies. Depending on your playstyle or laziness, this could get expensive. There are also other in-game weapons & armor you can purchase in order to buff up your experience while playing.

Overall Review: The last thing I can say that the Stores do offer an additional 100 quests to purchase and be able to complete in game. The game does come with already an amazing set of quests to complete so by adding more content is a bonus. I just can't wait to see if they are going to add on to this game or some out with a sequel. It would be nice to see a DLC Addon or sequel.

Most Critical Review

It's a Camera

Sony PS4 Camera
Sony PS4 Camera

Pros: This is a great camera for wanting to Stream with, as well as chat with your friends.

Cons: I personally don't like the idea of the Camera having a mic that re-verbs or echoes back into the Live Stream, If Sony could figure out a way not to make the internal mic or Sound of the Game echo back into the Live Stream this would be great. But this is the same reason I am knocking off 2 stars.

Fancy Controller

Pros: Great Controller, smooth handling, dialog sticks are just right texture of rubber. The Touch Pad gives a unique feature.

Cons: Does not come with anything else. No Micro USB cable. So knocked off 1 egg for that. Not Newegg's Fault. Just Sony's way of trying to get more money for less product.

Overall Review: For the price it could have included a Cable.

2 in 1 Over the Head Bluetooth Stereo Headstet Headphone w/ Mic Microphone for Sony Play Station 3 PS3 - Nosie Canceling

Pros: I'm giving this headset just 3 eggs; The headset does just ok for what I had bought it for. I've had no issues pairing it for my ps3, I'm able to hear and be heard cystal clear. It does fit comfortable on the ears and can be a little snugged if you wanted.

Cons: The cons are these: You have to leave the volume setting on one level. Otherwise you will hear a really bad echoing feedback. Regardless on how you adjust the volume via Ps3 or Headset the echoes are soo bad that it only radiates louder. So to keep from it doing so you have to leave it on 3 on the Ps3 and the lowest setting on headset; once adjusted to the right volume you shouldn't mess with the headset volume.

Overall Review: I was hoping I could have hooked it up to my computer, however I was not able to considering this headset is designed for Bluetooth only. Even with the USB cord you're not able to have your computer register the headset at all. As for my cell phone; I haven't tried it. Even though it does use the same usb connection end. Which is the "Micro-USB" cord for those who don't know it. The ad for this product does not specify the type of USB it is. The connection port for the Micro-USB connection cord is a little tight. The cover for the port does tend to get in the way. The mic itself is a little flimsy but very adjustable.

Move and Lose it

Sorcery Playstation3 Game
Sorcery Playstation3 Game

Pros: This game brings fun and excitement to the home with the kids and adults alike. The story is innovative and original. The gameplay is free flowing with smooth edges and crisps fps.

Cons: The problem with this game is that it's for the Playstation MOVE only. You can not convert this to controller. And the problem with that is that you're looking for repetitive motions with your writsts; shaking them back and forth to cast your spells. Then the camera only picks up certain motions in order for you to cast your spell in a particular direction. So you have to be precise on where you flick your wrists. With all the flickering of the wrists you have to do in this game you end up having corpal tunnel syndrome. Which is a huge problem for me. I for one am not happy with the game due to that problem alone. And will not play it anymore.

Overall Review: The only thing I can say other about this game is that I'm surprise that Sony doesn't get lawsuits over this game for Corpal Tunnel Syndrome. It is truly that bad on your wrists. Buyers beware.

DOA

Logitech MX 518 Aluminum 8 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Optical Gaming Mouse

Pros: The order was put together and shipped out immediately within a few hours of purchasing. Considering the large purchase I thought it would have taken at least a day.

Cons: The mouse had arrived DOA right from the start. I tried it twice. 1st I just plugged in to see if my comp would auto detect & it did. However it would not install due to a fatal error? The next thing I did was backed out w/ a System Restore; tried the Install CD 1st; Fatal Error again. So I had to back out a 2nd time. Finally I just said maybe I'll ask someone on vent, Come to find out as soon as I press connect on vent; it totally blue-screened me. my comp shut down & rebooted, I thought it might just have been a glitch. But I tried connecting Vent again & it Blue-screen of death a 2nd time. This time I was worried. So I went to System Restore a 2nd time, Come to find out it's the Logitech Viewpoint that was shutting my Vent off & Blue Screening my comp. I had previously installed my Logitech Webcam & Creative Wireless Gaming Headset HS-1200; no fatal errors or blue screens had occurred. So I knew w/o a shadow of a doubt that it had to be the Viewpoint; Mouse's LED was not lit at all.

Overall Review: The mouse did feel a little large to my liking, I would rather just get a refund on it and wait til I find a more suitable mouse that won't Blue Screen my comp or interrupt my Vent Services.
