As far as first person shooters go, Half life 2 ranks among the finest Jam packed with action, realistic graphics and physics that you would think would bring any respectable machine to its knees, but actually it's easy on the system resources (My machine is over a year old without any major upgrades except a memory upgrade ...             Apple Mac OS X Version 10.5.1 Leopard342 reviews Mac OS X, Macintosh | Apple, 2007 First Time Mac User Loves It First let me say that my iMac 20" was only my second ever apple purchase. I'm a former PC gamer and hardcore PC guy who has given up on Microsoft. I've used everything from FreeBSD & Linux to Windows XP/Vista and this is the most stable consumer based operating system. The OS loads very quick and the integration with iTunes & Safari is wonderful.             Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007543 reviews Windows | Microsoft Software, 2007 Very good value & Fast Delivery Student/Teacher is a very good value for MS Office product.

The product has proved to be as described and an excellent value based on the features and ease of use. I considered going with the professional package, but am glad I did not as the software offers all I need, and is much easier to use.             Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Home & Student Edition144 reviews Macintosh, Mac OS X | Microsoft Software, 2008 MS Office, Home Addition Product has a bug that causes frequent shutdowns. Strongly advise use of auto save to protect your work. Software has a new interface that appears in an expandable column instead of rows across the top of the screen. This works well for documents in Word but covers up a portion of the worksheet in Excel. Takes some getting used to! I would not have upgraded the software except for the fact ...             Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare194 reviews Windows | Activision, 2007 Stunning On a high end PC this game is absolutely stunning. It's harder then the earlier WW2 COD games, but the attention to detail in both the characters and the environments is staggering. The sniper mission stands out, you'd swear you were watching a movie sometimes. It's true that this is a linear shooter in the sense that you are restricted in what routes you can take and enemies will appear ...             Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures Collector's Edition7 reviews Windows | Eidos, 2008 Great game I've played many, many MMOs over the years and AoC has definitely provided some of the best synthesis of previous MMO gameplay and new and innovative gameplay. All of the classes are soloable and are more interactive and at minumum subtly different than classes in other MMOs. The graphics are beautiful, but I'm truly only rating the game high because of its well-thought out gameplay.             Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures4 reviews Windows | Eidos Interactive, 2008 Still waiting for email code... I pre-ordered this game 6 days ago (5/9) and I'm still waiting on the email code for early download. I understand that the box will take a few days... but how long should it take to send me the promised email with the special game code??? I'm now at the borderline for missing the game launch - I should have ordered elsewhere.             The Sims 2: FreeTime22 reviews Windows | Electronic Arts, 2008 Great Game Now the Sims can become even more realistic by having hobbies! Each Sim has a pre-picked hobby they enjoy. Some hobbies include: music and dance, sports, arts and crafts, nature, science, cusisine and tinkering. Now you can build trainboards (caution can kill Sims!), restore cars, hunt bugs, make pottery, you can now have secondary aspirations, and discover secret lots. Alot of fun, makes ...             SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition179 reviews Windows | Electronic Arts, 2003 Best game Best game I ever played in my life. I built a city with 1,045,934. It's way better than societies, even if it's old i never seem to get tired of it. If there is a contest for best city I am going to win it sure enough. I recommend this game than societies.

Homeworld was good in its time but its time to retire that game and say hello to a newer, bigger, better and superior game called Sins of a Solar Empire. A true TBS meets RTS game and the best mix of these two genres I have ever seen. Excellent single or multiplayer. One of the toughest computer AIs ever made. Beautiful graphics, some of the best space battles I have ever seen. Looks like it was ...             World of Warcraft 60 Day Pre-Paid Time Card92 reviews Windows, Mac OS X | Blizzard Entertainment, 2004 cheaper by the card It seems odd to me, considering the overhead costs, but the prepaid World of WarCraft card is less per month than to send in the money directly.             Hoyle Card Games 200825 reviews Windows, Macintosh | Encore Software, 2007 card game review. I found the product to be very good.The information on the product before purchasing it was accurate and what I wanted to know.I like the graphics and the ease of use of the product.I like the casino games because It seem as though you are really in a casino playing with different people.All in all I found the product very entertaining and fun.And look forward to purchasing other products along ...             Corel Ulead VideoStudio 11.5 Plus [AMAZON.COM EXCLUSIVE]4 reviews Windows | Corel, 2008 Hi-Def (BluRay) on Standard DVD 5 STARS for the ability to burn/edit/ watch in AVCHD. Well, I just got ULEAD VideoStudio 11.5 Plus software and the Sony PS3 yesterday. Although I prefer Sony Vegas Studio to do the editing, I bought the Ulead because of the claim that Hi-Def videos could be burned on standard DVDs and viewed through the PS3 in Hi-Def. I have a Canon HG10 camcorder and so far Sony Vegas Studio is incompatible ...             Logitech G25 Racing Wheel95 reviews Logitech Logitech, 2006 It's like Im Driving Recently buying Gran Turismo 5 Prologue caused me to want to take my racing game up to the next level. Enter the G25 racing wheel. Playing GT in cockpit view almost seems like I am racing in Daytona. The feedback this wheel gives makes me feel the road and what I may be doing wrong or right. This wheel is set apart with it's shifter and clutch. Of course a big plus is the complete ...             Assassin's Creed: Director's Cut Edition11 reviews Windows | Ubisoft, 2008 Good but not Great.... First, the good stuff, great graphics (when my character first rounded the curve overlooking old Jerusalem, I felt butterflies!!! Superbly done guys.) Fight scenes (graphics and action) are also enjoyable- which is the meat and potatoes of what this game is all about. And the storyline is intriguing enough to keep me interested- probably why I originally bought the "director's cut" version. Also, ...             World of Warcraft Battlechest18 reviews Windows, Mac OS X | Blizzard Entertainment, 2007 Amazing World of Warcraft Battlechest is an absolutely amazing product. I was skeptical about online gaming and have avoided. But about a month ago my tv died while I was sick and since I was bedridden for 5 days I could only sleep and read so much. So I purchased WoW Battlechest and started playing. It is by far the best video game experience I've ever been a part of. I am not a complete convert to the ...             The Sims 2: Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff6 reviews Windows | Electronic Arts, 2008 Can't download from EA.

Though I've corresponded with EA customer service in the last couple of days, as of April 18 EA customer service is not available, and won't be for several more hours!
