Do not buy Civilization 3

Sat, 3 Nov 2001 10:32:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Civlization 2 was released about six years ago to rave reviews. It's been hailed as one of the true PC game classics and Sid Meier, the creator, is a household name (well, in really dorky households).

It was so good, in fact, that years after...

Dell Business Online Store: Buying a PDA on Dell.com -- a craptacular experience

Sun, 21 Oct 2001 23:50:11 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - I recently bought a PDA through Dell.com, the Sony CLIE 760C. It was a below average experience, but I eventually got my nice new CLIE in a nice well-packaged box.

PRICES:

If I had a bad time with Dell.com, why do I recommend...

Handspring Online Store: A+, Buy from Handspring.com! Best shopping experience ever.

Sun, 21 Oct 2001 23:03:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Handspring.com is the best shopping site in history, probably.

Handspring.com is Handspring's official website for buying Handspring products, accessories, and software. For those of you who don't know, Handspring makes the "Visor" (and soon...

The Neo is a good bargain PDA!

Sat, 20 Oct 2001 06:49:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Bargain PDA's have the problem that other bargain electronics have: They lack high-end features and they become obsolete faster than more expensive models.

The Handspring Neo is a good way to work around some of these problems. At $200, it's...

General Reviews of Cingular Wireless Customer Service: Cingular will save you $7395793.42

Thu, 5 Jul 2001 20:45:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Cingular is by far the best wireless phone company, in my opinion. =(

This is a review of Cingular's national service and rates; once Epinions sets up a Cingular in Seattle category I'll tell you about Cingular where I live!

Nokia 3390: The best phone in the USA! Wonderful. :)

Thu, 5 Jul 2001 19:49:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - You won't go wrong with this phone. It's the all-around best phone available (for under $300-$400) in the US right now.

- Looks

This phone is small. It's about halfway between the omnipresent 5000-series and the super-tiny...

Look for my Tony Hawk 2 auction on Ebay!

Mon, 2 Jul 2001 22:33:37 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - I didn't like Tony Hawk 2 as much as I thought I would.

If you've never played Tony Hawk, I'll give you a brief introduction. It's a skating game where you control a famous skater and get money and advance levels by completing a number of...

Best budget TV

Sat, 3 Mar 2001 01:51:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - This is the best TV I found that didn't cost a ton. I paid $279 at Circuit City for this TV, despite the $500 price tag here on Epinions. I picked this TV for these reasons:

1) The picture is really good. I won't say that it's great because...

Looks like it'll be the perfect gaming system! (PREVIEW)

Fri, 2 Mar 2001 07:29:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - ** UPDATED: THIS REVIEW IS OLD! **

** This was written months before the GBA was released; it doesn't really apply now that it's out and I own one. Look at my (or others') current reviews for how it's really like! **

The Game Boy...

Blow $10k before you graduate college, get a crisp new benji.

Tue, 6 Feb 2001 01:48:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - This is a review on the actual student card, although there is one that a couple other people have written on the "normal one." There appear to be some differences: First, this card has NO annual fee. Second, you get 1% "cash back" on every purchase...

The Pokemon lie: This is a very solid game! :D

Tue, 6 Feb 2001 00:45:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - If you're reading this, you're probably in at least one of the following groups:

1) You're a Pokemon fan! Not as many of these as there once were, and there's not that much here for you. Pokemon play a very peripheral role in this game; if...

Linux Web Host: Perfect web host for smaller sites.. and CHEAP!

Thu, 16 Nov 2000 21:29:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - I host two web sites on LinuxWebHost for hobby purposes mostly since December 99 (for payyobillz.com and punkest.com). Their prices are great, their service is (mostly) great, they're very reliable, and you'll get a pretty good bang for your buck.

What You Should Know About The Human Brain

Mon, 14 Aug 2000 21:42:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - This is a book about neurology, but as another writer said, it's just plain good reading. This is a book for people like YOU, whether you're an MD or have never taken a psychology class in your life. You'll gain understanding of the human mind from...

Yahoo! Search: Yahoo Sucks

Tue, 1 Aug 2000 06:54:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - This Epinion will detail where Yahoo came from, how it has changed, and why it now sucks. :(

Yahoo is the most popular site on the web as of writing, even though it isn't a very good search engine. It's not even really a search engine. It's a...

Elliott Smith's Best

Mon, 31 Jul 2000 07:32:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Elliott Smith has become one of the great singer-songwriters of our time, and this is probably his best work so far.

If you're reading this, you probably know who Elliott Smith is, as this isn't usually one of the albums people are introduced...

Pedro must not have quit!

Sat, 15 Jul 2000 08:35:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Pedro The Lion is, perhaps, my favorite band, and this album is a great example why.

Pedro The Lion is a band -- well, actually a person, David Bazan -- from Seattle. While in previous albums the drum/bass players rotated almost every album,...

24 Hours Of Fun

Tue, 20 Jun 2000 21:10:12 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - I bought Bomberman Max Blue (Champion) because I was looking for a good new Gameboy Color game to pass some time once school was out. I saw IGN.com gave it a "9" and it looked like a quality game. I bought it at Outpost.com for $29.95 and got...

This definitely ain' t no Pokemon...

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 00:36:41 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Lots of obvious comparisons have been made between Dragon Warrior Monsters and Pokemon. I thought DWM would be a cheap ripoff, until I played it! Now that I have, I can say it's really nothing like Pokemon except for having monsters fight for you (which...

Jotter: All the Internet utilities you need in one!

Sun, 16 Apr 2000 05:04:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Jotter is an excellent program that does what just about every popular Internet utility you could need in one little bar!

The main "selling" point for Jotter, even though it's free, is that it's a pay-to-surf bar just like...

Never got the magazine, but I got a bill...

Fri, 14 Apr 2000 22:52:21 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - This is going to be a short Epinion, but I feel a little obligated to write about it as I've had a somewhat bad experience with this "magazine on CD"...

I've never actually used the Launch CD-ROM Magazine, and there's a good reason...

Original Idea! But not without its problems..

Mon, 10 Apr 2000 05:38:45 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Survival Kids is a very, very original game. You're a little boy or girl on a cruise ship that sinks, and wind up on a deserted island a la Gilligan's Island. You have no tools besides your knife and your broken radio, and your only goal is to survive,...

Jackpot.com: The best sweepstakes out there! This has it all!

Thu, 6 Apr 2000 20:36:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Jackpot.com took all the best ideas from the "web rewards" programs of the past year or two and put them all together. Jackpot.com has a great game program, a points system similar to MyPoints or Beenz, a surfbar like AllAdvantage, and of...

GetPaid4: Occasional hassles, but I get my checks!

Sun, 2 Apr 2000 01:40:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - GetPaid4 is the pay-to-surf program that I get the most money from. I've gotten checks in February and March 2000. While it's not my favorite bar due to some technical hassles, I recommend it.

The rates since December have been $0.48/hour up...

How To Get Referrals: Referrals: What works, what doesn't.

Sat, 11 Mar 2000 20:19:47 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - Referrals are one of the most misleading things about earning programs, such as AllAdvantage, GetPaid4, Imandi, TheMail, and many others. Almost all multi-level referral FAQ's try to mislead you into thinking that you'll get hundreds or THOUSANDS of...

Imandi: Up to $25,000?

Sun, 27 Feb 2000 05:19:08 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jeremyf - This won't work as well as they promise, but you can probably expect a check. By that I don't mean that they won't pay what they promise; I'm very sure that they will. They obviously have a ton of capital and resources to pay off all of their members...
