5.0 out of 5 stars This surpasses AEII!, March 13, 2007
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Age Of Empires III (Video Game)
This far surpasses Ages of Empire II. This is the game update that should happen for the previous game.

Patience is key, and a few spare hours do not hurt much, either.

I'm more glad I bought this (and waited for it) for MAC than PC.

This game was worth every penny, and even my husband, who is hard to impress, was kinda impressed by how smooth everything played. You really have to admire 17th & 18th century warfare to LOVE this game. A little knowledge about who was ally and who was enemy makes the game all the more fun.....

Enjoy!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful but Imperfect, January 10, 2009
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Age Of Empires III (Video Game)
I'm really more on the fence about this game than my score indicates. It's really more of a 3.5 than a 4.

As for the Pros, first of all it's gorgeous. The game utilizes different lighting very effectively which provides different regions of the American hemisphere their own unique aura (for the most part). The Yukon winter, the subtropical fauna, the Caribbean waters, and the New England fall are all portrayed very well. It's also nice to see such a variety of regions portrayed (who else would have thought to include Patagonia but Ensemble?).

Next, the graphics engine really is a pioneer among RTS games. To see a cannonball shot from a culverin, scream over the landscape, smash into a town center, blow out the windows and a corner from the building's steeple, come out the other side, and come to a rolling stop a few relative feet from the building with splinters falling around it sets a standard that no other RTS from here on out can afford to not meet.

This game is awsome! Very well done. Anyone who has played the previous age of empires should catch on very fast. Even if you havn't played before it won't take long to get the hang of it. I have a 2ghz intel mac and have no problems. Graphics are amazing as well as the gameplay.

(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: SteelSeries Diablo III Gaming Headset (Personal Computers)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
As a DJ and avid gamer I'm always in the market for decent headphones. I've had so many over the years I've lost track as to the actual number. When I saw this SteelSeries Diablo III Gaming Headset on Amazon Vine I jumped at the change to try them out. Here are my thoughts;

Pros

+ Official licensed Blizzard/Diablo product.

+ Deep red lighting on the side of the headset looks neat even if it's just cosmetic.

+ Beautiful Diablo III logos on headset as well as extremely nice packaging/box.

+ Superb sound. The bass is warm and rich, better than the majority of headphones I've owned.

+ Set-up and installation of software was easy.

+ Sits comfortably on your head and adjusts easily (comes with a con see below).

+ Lightweight (also a con, see below).

+ Mic is clear, bendable and retractable/concealable inside the left ear cup. A great feature.

+ Headset cord is entirely covered... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Looks Nice, Sounds Nice -- but a few minor problems, November 22, 2011
This review is from: SteelSeries Diablo III Gaming Headset (Personal Computers)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
The first thing you notice is how nice this Diablo headset is on the eyes. The design is slick and the illuminated red gives off an intense glow that says "I'm ready to play." The headphones are very comfortable even after 3-4 hours of play and don't build up noticeable heat, sweat, or pressure points. I'm not sure the headset would work very well with small heads however due to the lack of adjustable ear pieces.

The sound is rich with plenty of bass. The mic produces crisp, high quality sound although it does catch a little more breathing and background noise than hoped. The headset extension chord also helps especially if you plug it into the rear of your PC. I tested this game with Left 4 Dead 2 and Battlefield 3 -- the sound and mic performed excellent.

Now for the bad. I found problems with using USB compared to the old style audio jacks. Sometimes my computer won't re-recognize the headset if it gets unplugged and the re-plugged in. Other times I... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Headset, little pricey but if you like Diablo you will like these :), November 14, 2011
This review is from: SteelSeries Diablo III Gaming Headset (Personal Computers)
So I will keep this relatively short.
If you want to watch my in depth review google Psylacus and Diablo 3 headset and you will find a 3 part review going over everything you probably want to know about them.

Now, the headset is based on the Siberia v2. I think they are around 80-90 dollars or so. These cost around 120 so you are paying about 30 mroe dollars for the cool Diablo theme.

Yes, they are awesome looking if you like red and are into the dark tribal look. If so, you will like these a lot.

The sound they produce are similar to a 60 dollars pair of headphones.
So remember, you are buying a gaming headset, not a audiophile grade 300 dollar pair of Sennhieser/Shure...
The sound is also improved by having a decent sound card or amplifier combo.
The headset construction is good, full of screws and thick plastic. It doesn't look like it will fall apart anytime soon! The lights can be turned on and off and set to different... Read more

This review is from: Limited Edition PSP Sports Entertainment Pack (Video Game)
I purchased this item here on amazon not too long ago. What I paid for was a Sony PSP 3000 Sports Entertainment pack which was meant to be a little 8 year old boy's Christmas gift. The set was being sold by a seller called priceless and I have always had faith in amazon.com and the sellers they allowed to sell on their website and I purchased without haste for $173.99.

The reason why this wasn't reported sooner was because the package had to be sent to a mail forwarding facility to be sent to my country. I also had a bit of a wait for it to get there during which time I was contacted by the seller for priceless via amazon email to leave him feedback. I had not received the PSP as yet but I saw that it was delivered to my mail forwarding facility. As such I left positive feedback for him as I have with other sellers because I have NEVER had a problem buying anything from amazon till now like I mentioned earlier and it is a site I used to trust completely.
