Xbox 360 Universal Media Remote

Great remote. Allows me to watch the movies I'm wirelessly sharing to my xbox on my bigscreen while only using one remote. I can change inputs on my tv, change the volume, control the xbox dashboard ... Ahh, so nice :)

My only complaint is the 'TV' button. It's basically a TV/Xbox button that allows you to switch the device that you're currently controlling with the remote. Unfortunately, it's awkward to figure out which device you are currently controlling. A switch would have been better.

Otherwise, great product!

Major League Baseball 2K8

MLB 2k8 I would say is the worst baseball game I have ever played. There are no good features to this game. The gameplay is so bad that it is almost impossible to play a realistic game. For one the batting is fine on pro mode, but the pitching absolutely sucks. For example I can not pitch agood game at all with dominate aces like Johan Santana. YOur closers will suck. I had K-Rod, who we know is absolutely dominate had a 9.60 ERA for me. Now that is very unrealistic. Before that I had Billy Wagner with a six run lead in the bottom of the ninth, he gives up like five home runs. Total control pitching is garbage because every pitch you throw is served on a silver platter to be crushed. Precision pitching is not much better. Batters still crush the ball. ... Read More:

The Darkness

First off, this is a game for adults only.
And I mean that in no uncertain terms. (This is a game that visits the worst human tragedy in known history - World War I)
Violence, language and general depravity considered, even an adult might want to rethink her/his steps when purchasing this item.
This game is so intense, it literally made me feel weird and bad during the later stages. I was truly angry at the end of the game and actually cried during the final sequence.

If you can shrug off these warnings, you are in for arguably the most intense video game experience on the 360 so far.

Even in its earlier releases, Starbreeze prided itself in challenging the player to think outside the bounds of what was possible ... Read More:

Xbox 360 120GB Hard Drive

from: Microsoft Software

The only saving graces for this and other M$ Xbox 360 storage options are:
- It lets you save Xbox Live Marketplace content and Game Saves
- If you plan on using the Netflix movie service with your Xbox 360, you'll need this device to store the movies and television shows. The typical 20GB drive may store one season's worth of standard definition TV shows at the very most.

Otherwise, it really isn't worth the money considering how little storage you get for the price. It and other M$ branded storage products are the ONLY solutions to save Xbox Live content and Game Saves. Other options require either violating a warranty due to hacking the drive and storing its content onto your PC, or having your Xbox 360 banned from Xbox Live for ... Read More:

Soul Calibur IV Premium Edition

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox 360
from: Namco

This game is very polished and balanced, and I think fans of fighting games as well as casual gamers can enjoy it. Novice and expert fighters seem to have close battles more often, unlike Dead or Alive where experts always clobber novices, or the opposite end in Smash Bros. where the battles can be very random. Also you can make your own character and the online mode is pretty good, but not amazing. There's no online tag team and it's one-on-one fights only, but at least you can spectate when it's not your turn and there's not a lot of lag. Unlocking things like new weapons, characters, stages, and clothes is very rewarding.

The graphics deserve special mention. They're probably the best I've seen in a video game ever, with emotive and nuanced facial animation, ... Read More:

I found it funny how it asked me how fun this "game" was...Let's see, the controls were jerky, the graphics were bad...

But no. It's a webcam. Given everything, I didn't even use it for a game. No sir, I did not buy it for my XBOX 360. I bought it for my iMac.

Basically, it's for claymation and such. I bought it because it's a good webcam, but more importantly, it's Mac-compatible.

Good "game" overall.

Blue Dragon

Blue Dragon represents a strong foray into the world of Japanese style RPGs for the XBox 360, and on that front, it was a complete success. It's straightforward in virtually every aspect, offering little new, but doing most everything well.

The graphics are great throughout, and stunning at times. It's a lush and varied world, and the style, although criticized as childish by some, is well executed. Vivid colors and a variety of settings make travel throughout the world a pleasure.

Music is also a highpoint. The score is catchy, fitting, and engaging. My only criticism there is I would like to have seen a few more songs for battles. There are basically two battle themes -- regular and boss -- that are repeated throughout.

The storyline ... Read More:
