Rise of Nations, fun game for non gamers
3 personnes sur 3 ont jugé cet avis utile. First off, I am an old guy! I am retired and tired, so I don't play video games very often. I bought Rise of Nations for the long winters we have here in Montana, as a diversion from the mindless drivel that is on TV. I find that I have had a load of fun already.
The instructions are very easy to understand, and the format of the game makes it easy to get started right away. The game has two aspects, the sims and the fight. You need to get on the sims in order to build an army to fight, so they are linked. Being a non gamer, this provides no down time, and you stay busy through out the entire process. The graphics are very well done, from the start in primitive man, right up to the modern world where you go from sticks and arrows and swords to tanks and airplanes and nukes.
There are several levels of game play, from easy to very hard. Easy is exactly that, it is nearly impossible to loose, and very hard, it is extremely hard to best the computer, at least for a non gamer. There is a on-line game play, but I have not had the time to try that out yet.
All in all, it is worth a few bucks to try out at least. You can download a trail version from Microsoft, and as the game is a few years old, you can get it pretty cheap here on eBay. It is worth a try in my opinion.

Now safe to buy! Patches and updates have made this the game it should be.
13 personnes sur 25 ont jugé cet avis utile. Hi, and thanks for reading our review.
This game has been in development for just over a decade. Activision Blizzard has decades of experience in launching online games. Armed with this knowledge, you would think that after millions that have been spent in development, plus a ton more on advertising and marketing that Activision Blizzard would have enough hardware and servers to insure a successful launch of this highly touted game. Well, sadly you and we would be terribly wrong. Save your sixty bucks and wait a few months to get this game cheap and keep checking reviews to see if all the errors have been corrected. As of this writing, the game is completely unplayable and here's why;
1) If by chance you are fortunate enough to actually get logged into one of the servers, you are asked to create a character. Easy enough, but in our experience, we were booted off the server seven times before actually being able to create a character (called a hero in this game).
2) There is plenty of substantiation on the single player disaster, so allow us to move forward to after 30 minutes to create a hero to the slow motion play. I kid you not, the game plays for an average of 7 to 14 minutes in slow motion before you get exited out of the game. All this plus a plethora of error codes and messages that would cause most people to seek refunds immediately. Obviously Activision Blizzard never bothered to invest in enough server capacity to even come close to the demand.
3) You can't complain to them, as the company actually took down their "battlenet" common area supposedly to use those servers to help with demand. They didn't help!
4) The stock price plunged today by .40 cents, which wouldn't have been a big deal other than the stock trades in the $12 - $14 dollar range. Forty cents is significant. Investors figured out quickly that once again Activision Blizzard had ruined the launch of this game.
If you own this game, the only way I have found to actually send a message to complain is to find the investor page on the website and email them from their. I would encourage everyone that ponied up the $60 bucks and much more for the collectors addition to do just that. Here is the link: http://investor.activision.com/contactus.cfm
Again, thanks for taking time out of your busy day to read our review. Take care and we hope you find a playable game.
UPDATE 8-29-12:
I think it is only fair as I was so direct in my opinion of the terrible launch of this game, and it was TERRIBLE, that I now amend my opinion as the company has LISTENED to the many gamers and have had several updates/patches that have dramatically improved the game. You will find that this game is very rewarding in it's current state, but there is still significant room for improvement. Stay tuned for future review updates, and thanks for taking the time to read this.

Sony HDR-SR10 Full 1080HD Handycam
1 personnes sur 1 ont jugé cet avis utile. Thanks for taking the time to read my review:
I have only had a few days to play with this camcorder, but it is amazing! The clarity is incredible as is the ease of use. You can set it so the camcorder does everything for you, so you don't have to be tech savvy to make great shots. It works perfect on single shots or in camcorder mode to shoot extended periods. I hook it up to my 1080 HD TV, and you can't believe the clarity.
I can burn my movies or single shots with my computer and the software that comes with is very easy to use, or you can get a DVD recorder, I have a Toshiba that I just love, and burn them that way. I haven't done much editing yet, but I am convinced that the Sony HDR-SR10 does way more than I need, but I will most certainly grow into it. I can't wait to take it to Yellowstone Park!
If you are considering a really nice camcorder, certainly consider the Sony. It got fabulous reviews on Cnet and many others, and ranked right up there with the Canons. I was concerned with the touch screen as I thought that may some day come loose, but forget that. It is very well constructed.
I hope this helps any potential buyers.
