Adobe Photoshop CS4

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: Adobe

October 31, 2008
I called Adobe before I purchased PS CS4 from Amazon.com. They told me that Amazon is not an authorized dealer so "we would not give support" and then he curtly transferred my phone call to their Customer Service. The Customer Service told me the opposite and apologised for the lie.

I purchased it from Amazon and it was delivered as demanded except for a slight glitch. I had to cancel my doctor's appointment to receive the product because Amazon insisted on my physical signature. I called Amazon which was someone in INDIA who said that "presently, our systems are down, call back in two hours". I had to reschedule my appointment which got postponed for 3 weeks because the doctor is very busy. Not a good thing for my heart problem. ... Read More:

It's hard getting used to playing with the Nostromo after being a keyboard WoW player. However, after I got the buttons set up how I wanted (through the very easy-to-use GUI) and got used to using it, I love this thing! I'm so glad I bought one!

DeLorme Earthmate PN-40

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: DeLorme

November 21, 2008
I had a chance to try the PN-40 extensively on a recent off-trail desert hiking trip. The unit performed flawlessly, and though I'm pretty picky about features, at the end of the week, I still didn't have a wish list.
Delorme's new high resolution color aerial imaging is a real upgrade from it's previous topo and "satellite" imagery. Comparing side by side with Google Earth, Google has a slight edge on resolution, but it's pretty close. And for a mobile GPS, the resolution is more than you need, and you can zoom up on details that provide more than enough detail. Delorme's new subscription pricing option of $30 for a year's worth of unlimited map downloading is a much better pricing model than the old "pay as you go", which got expensive fast.

Mass Effect

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: Electronic Arts

May 27, 2008
It is very unfortunate that they have to give such a promising game the death touch that is SecuROM. There is absolutely no way I'm letting EA put Malware on my PC. Games like Sins of a Solar Empire and Galactic Civilizations prove that games can do extremely well without SecuROM. You have to have an activation key to get updates, but it never expires and you only have to enter it once as long as you have the same email address. Piracy is much worse for SecuROM games than others. EA is actually making things worse for themselves. I recommend that no one should buy EA games, however tempting it is. And definitely don't buy used ones as you may not even be able to install it.

Gears of War

I thought this game was great. Although you need a pretty advanced computer to run it, overhauling your computer now a days is pretty cheep. Its what I did. I loved this game because, let's face it, who doesn't like ramming guys up the butt with chain-saws. The game takes graphic to an astronomical level, making you fell like you are in the game. The multiplayer is also altered from the original 360 version, making the experience all that much more enjoyable. The story line is good, you can fight aliens from destroying the Earth. There are a variety of weapons that make bashing the bad-guys loads of fun. You can also fight huge aliens with a machine gun. Great Game!

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 DVD

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: Electronic Arts

August 28, 2007
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2008 is quite simply one of the best golf games ever. I am really into first-person shooters (Battlefield 2, Rainbow Six), racing games (GTR2, Race 07 WTCC, Need for Speed), and adventure games (Oblivion) and found it easy to become immersed in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2008.

The graphics are very detailed and precise. The scenery is gorgeous and everything runs smoothly with full details (on the auto adjustment setting) on a P4 3.0 GHz rig with a Radeon X1950 GT.

The sound quality is top notch. The ambient noises such as duck quacks and bird chirps immerse the player in the golf environment.

The custom character system is similar to the system used in The Godfather where you can adjust the character's facial and body features. ... Read More:

Age of Empires III

This is one of the best game of al time. I have always been a huge fan of real time strategy game, and Age of Empire series have always been consistant in its delivery of strategy, graphic, and gaming. Age of Empires III raises the bar to another level, and this is a must have for any gamer, both for Macintosh and for PC. The add on's - Warchiefs and Asian Dynasty are both terrific. I love this so much I have both Mac and PC versions.
