gterr says "Amazing party game." about Rock Band 2 - Rock Band 2 for Xbox

gterr — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 00:19:27 GMT

What can I say about Rock Band 2? It is one of the most popular franchise games out there and the never ending list of downloadable tracks keeps growing and growing every week. You can bang it out on drums, shred it on guitar or scream your lungs out on vocals with their own specially made plastic intrusments. The game itself has a huge World Tour mode, which lets one to four people play out their biggest fantasy in a rock and roll band spanding all across the globe in a battle to become a Rolling Stones Rock Immortal. Outside of the world tour mode is a sprawling online play, which lets people play others online with or against each other in 4 different competitive modes. Starting from easy tracks that will almost put you to sleep, to blistering, hand throbbing, throat burning songs that can easily get you frustrated. But fear not, it's all in good fun and anybody who is a fan of music and video games will love this one.

gterr says "A good buy for new moms." about Graco Snugrider Infant Car Seat Frame

I am reviewing the Graco snugride stroller frame. This is my second child and I already had the carseat so all I really needed was the srtoller. This is a great product! Instead of investing all the money into a big bulky stroller I was talked into trying this by the sales associate. The Grace Snugride carseat fits beautifully on this. The best part is that it is so lightweight and easy to fold up to put in the car. We even took it on an airplane for a visit to our relatives in florida! Great for travel. The only downside is that it is only good as long as your child is in the carseat, and it doesn't have a good storage basket to put your diaper bag in.We are planning on letting my sister have this when we are done because it has plenty of life in it. It is very easy to fold up and you can attach the carseat to it in about 3 seconds! I wish I had this for my first child instead of struggling with the huge stroller.

gterr says "It's cool." about Xbox 360 - xbox 360 console

gterr — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 00:01:00 GMT

The Xbox 360 is an amazing console. No doubt. The online play's replay value is just increased everyday by new marketplace add ons and new game releases. Many of the world's most popular games are on the 360. Such as Gears of War 2, Halo 3, and the Orange Box. It has a lot of great features like charging your controller through a play 'n' charge kit, it charges your batteries while you are playing and the Hard Drive can go up from 20 gigabites to 250 gigabites. It has no defaults whatsoever, except for the fact that after owning for a year or two, it can break, but it is easily fixed for free if you send it in to Microsoft and is returned in 2 weeks to a month. A small wait for a great thing, in my opinion. So all in all, the Xbox 360 is a product definitely a worth while investment and for any video game fanatic it is an easy choice for people tied between buying a Playstation Three and the Xbox 360.

gterr says "Britax Marathon is made in the USA." about Britax Marathon

This is my second car seat, I bought and returned the Evenflo Triumph, it was too hard to use and almost impossibe to tighten the straps as you are supposed to. The store sales associate talked me into this purchase and I am so happy with the seat. The seat is so easy to install using the latch system. The straps don't get twisted as the did on the Evenflo. The Britax Marathon is made in the USA and exceeds US safety standards. Our little one is so comfortable in this seat as we take many long trips. The pad has an attractive pattern that matches our car and is completely machine washable. I just found out that you can buy additional car seat covers on the Britax website. It would be good to have an extra one on hand in case of a spill or a diaper blow out. We plan on purchasing a second one for our other car. Don't waste your money on anything else go for the best and you'll save yourself so much time and aggravation.
