Royal Gold film produces royal results

Wed, 19 Dec 2001 19:22:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jmattingly73 - To begin with, I love taking pictures of my children. Most of the time, I will use Kodak Gold or Fuji Superia for snapshots and candids.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jmattingly73 - I got in to SLR cameras with the Pentax ZX-50. At the time, I thought the ZX-50 would supply all the features that I would ever need in a camera.

THQ lays another smackdown on Playstation

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 12:43:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jmattingly73 - Well what can I say, THQ has done it again. I thought WWF Smackdown was awesome until Smackdown 2 came out. The action is killer on the sequel. There are so many wrestlers to choose from than before with the additions of Too Cool, Rikishi, The...

Fri, 22 Sep 2000 18:09:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jmattingly73 - Agetec did a good job with this one. Bass Landing is the best fishing game I have come across. The realism is superb. I've seen with other fishing games that were not realistic at all. Pretty much anyone can just fish away without not even knowing...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jmattingly73 - In the beginning

First, there was PONG. Then came Atari. Later, Intelivision stomped Atari's butt. What was next? A new revolution in gaming, the Nintendo. Nintendo held its own for quite some time. Sega tried to answer...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jmattingly73 - Finally, The Rock Has Come Back to THQ

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jmattingly73 - I had Mcafee Anti-virus on one of my computers at work. It seemed to work pretty well. So I thought, "Hmmmm", I bet the McAfee Office 2000 would be pretty awesome. When you read the box, it has all of these features from an uninstaller,...
