This one, though, has already rather dramatically let me down, in a couple ways... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~438211350148 Tue, 22 Jul 2008 21:02:04 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_438211350148?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_423965986436?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - Storyline: Zelda fanboys rejoice, critics say "it's OK" ___Traditional Zelda fare. It continues off of Wind Waker, and is ultimately pretty much a 'side quest' to a main storyline. I won't say how or why, that's for the gamer to figure out... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~423965986436 Sat, 29 Mar 2008 01:59:29 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_423965986436?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_238324977284?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - I'll keep this one fairly short, as I'm not going into anything particularly technical (aside from pointing out that this is a 400mhz GPU... higher end ones usually don't break 500 or 550, and a step lower runs below 300mhz typically, so this is... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~238324977284 Sat, 24 Jun 2006 20:55:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_238324977284?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_195712421508?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - I've got an old pair of Sony behind-the-head headphones. The only reason I kept them was because I could jog with them (earbuds hurt my ears, and Grado's aren't exactly "joggable"). They routinely shoved my glasses out of the correct spots, screwing... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~195712421508 Fri, 9 Sep 2005 14:39:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_195712421508?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_193967394436?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - I just got this OS on a laptop, which I got for college. This is also my first time using a Mac (so, this is my "Mac experience", not just 10.4). And, above all, I'm IMPRESSED. It took a bit of work to learn, but I'm pretty geek-literate, and I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~193967394436 Mon, 22 Aug 2005 19:58:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_193967394436?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_172916969092?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - My first impression when I got this game: ooh, 3D! Ooh, crappy framerate! Then I got a better video card :) Anyway. Let the review... COMMENCE! Graphics are mediocre at best. Yes, it's in 3D, but the units are EXTREMELY chunky and largely... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~172916969092 Thu, 10 Feb 2005 12:52:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_172916969092?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_149362871940?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - Here's the quick and dirty: it's got a mediocre music compliment, and far fewer movie and game selections. But, it's got decent prices, quite often there are sales that can save you a LOT of money, and I've never had a problem with the site OR... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~149362871940 Tue, 27 Jul 2004 18:57:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_149362871940?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_147750751876?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - A while back I was looking for a headset with a mike on it for Counter Strike, and with this I struck pure gold. Construction/design: 9/10 The ear pads are almost cupping size, and therefore comfortable for several hours at worst. It... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~147750751876 Wed, 14 Jul 2004 23:28:38 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_147750751876?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_147738562180?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - Well, I bought this for my brother (birthday present), and he certainly likes it. He uses it in EVERY game we have. I don't, for a couple reasons. 1) It's... small. I've got big hands though. I have to bunch up my hand to hit the keys... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~147738562180 Wed, 14 Jul 2004 21:07:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_147738562180?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_147591564932?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - LMAO I beat this game the first time through on the hardest difficuly in under 3 hours. No, seriously, it's that short. I regret the 5 dollars I spent to rent the thing. And I'm a big fan of the Star Wars games, both console and PC. People who buy... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~147591564932 Tue, 13 Jul 2004 21:40:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_147591564932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_147568889476?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - Well, maybe get one of those 6v ones. Those are sweet too. Anyway. What's to say? I've had mine for several years now, taken it caving, climbing, camping, anywhere I need light. And it works. And works and works and works... You get the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~147568889476 Tue, 13 Jul 2004 17:30:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_147568889476?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_147076517508?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - First off, this is a fairly old PDA. It's 16-grey B&W, 8 megs (you don't need much more for a B&W, but still...), and only upgrades to PalmOS 4.1 at max (I still use 3.5.2, which it came with. More programs :D ). On the flipside, it's a handspring, so... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~147076517508 Fri, 9 Jul 2004 23:42:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_147076517508?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_146440228484?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - I was kind of shy at the price tag (50 dollars o.O ) at first, but the sheer sw33tness won me over. Big time. I've never found, tested, or bought a better mouse than this. It's mind-bogglingly accurate, you CAN'T make it skip by moving it too fast... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~146440228484 Mon, 5 Jul 2004 19:06:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_146440228484?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_146216160900?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - My brother actually owns these, but I use them more than him :) For under 100 dollars, these are by far the best headphones for a portable player you'll find. OK, so there's a couple sub-100 ones that are better, but if you look closely at reviews and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~146216160900 Sat, 3 Jul 2004 20:00:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_146216160900?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_146214194820?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - I'm really picky when it comes to sound quality. I look at people listening with cheap Sony headphones, and I can do nothing but cringe. THAT ISN'T HOW MUSIC IS SUPPOSED TO SOUND!!! argh. My brother and I fall into the category of "Audiophiles"... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~146214194820 Sat, 3 Jul 2004 19:22:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_146214194820?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_146211901060?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - A neighbor of mine got four of these suckers, and I'm always skeptical of anything but the original Nintendo controllers. I've had sooo many bad experiences with 3rd party controllers (every one I have bought, I've kicked myself for later. Without a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~146211901060 Sat, 3 Jul 2004 18:43:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_146211901060?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_144784920196?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - Firstly, this is one of my all-time favorite games. There are SOOO many free mods out there for it, many of them are truly excellent, and it's got the largest online player base of any game in the world. Ever. On any given time, on Steam alone (the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~144784920196 Tue, 29 Jun 2004 21:04:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_144784920196?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_144783216260?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author groxx - If you're thinking of buying this separately, take my advice: don't. It's not BAD, but it certainly isn't worth running out and getting it. Gameplay: 7/10 Still a solid game mechanically, because it's built off Half Life. The overall... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~144783216260 Tue, 29 Jun 2004 21:04:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_144783216260?linkin_id=8003929
