		<description>This game was passable.  My kids liked it except they did not understand why the Superheroes were fighting each other.  I did not either, not being familiar with the &quot;Cival War&quot;.  But then  I did learn and I was laughing pretty hard.  So, in a society where you need to register to own a gun, its a big deal to register when you are the equivalent of a nuclear weapon?  Gimme a break.  Anyway, once I explained to the kids the heroes are fighting because some writer has the political sense and common sense of a comic book store owner they understood exactly.  Well, no they didn&#039;t. But they still liked it.  Personally, I found it kind of simplistic and dull.

		<description>We travel alot, so this seemed like a good purchase idea.  We charged our iPod mini&#039;s and that was easy enough, but then we realized it erased our music and audiobooks.  We tried to reconnect at home on our computers, and the library would no longer export to the minis!  It&#039;s bad enough the music and all was erased while we were on the road, but then not to be able to put it back on is adding insult to injury.  We use Windows Home XP, maybe there&#039;s an issue there, but in any case, it&#039;s a major hassle and not worth the purchase price.  We&#039;re sending it back.

		<description>en si el juego en si es una fiel copia al carbon de su predecesor presenta elementos nuevos como los fusion attacks, de recomendar este juego solo si tienes con quien jugarlo ya que solo es un poco aburrido,...
&lt;br /&gt;no es un mal juego pero en si es una secuela algo mediocre, si eres de los q jugaron el primero te recomiendo mejor rentarlo antes que comprarlo, para los seguidores de marvel comics podrian llegar a adorarlo a pesar de sus bordes algo rusticos.

		<description>The reason I am giving this unit a 3 star is the fact that i still need the usb cable supplied with the ipod unit to charge it.
&lt;br /&gt;By ordering an upod charger, i expected it came with its own cable usb to ipod plug. However, this unit comes with only the adapter without a cable.
&lt;br /&gt;Apple are squeezing their customers for money in return for minimal accessories.

		<description>Just got this LCD TV today.  I replaced a 15&quot; TV in the kitchen.  This TV has a great picture and the volume is adequate for the room.  Before I had problems with the old TVs picture because of the different light situations in this room.  The set up took about 10 minutes from the box to picture.  So far I am very impressed.  Highly recommend this television.

		<description>I generally do a lot of research before buying a game. But I bought this one even after the poor reviews because I&#039;m a big marvel fan. What a let down this game turned out to be.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Graphics :
&lt;br /&gt;Its definitely not on par with the current gen games. Its just ok, nothing more than average.
&lt;br /&gt;The cutscenes are of very poor quality, both from graphics and direction point of view.
&lt;br /&gt;MUA 1 had some superb cutscenes to show off. None of that &#039;s here.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Gameplay:
&lt;br /&gt;By now most of you have heard about the bugs: characters getting stuck, repeatedly resetting to &#039;auto spend&#039; character points, enemy soldiers walking in the air. And DLCs should be coming. So optimistically speaking, we can assume that they would be fixed very soon.
&lt;br /&gt;BUT... the core game play cant be fixed &amp; sadly its very poor. What&#039;s there isn&#039;t bad but its just too little &#039;to do&#039;. This game plays the same as MUA 1 but all the customizations and collectible equipments form MUA 1 has been greatly and i mean GREATLY stripped down. Now its like a &#039;kindergarten RPG&#039;. Even X-Men Legends 1 had more &#039;to do&#039; gameplay in it than MUA 2.
&lt;br /&gt;This is a linear game. Atleast they could have done the level design right. Even the level design in this game is poor. Certain level have these small path patterns that are repeated through out that level. Some levels are very similar to MUA 1.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;They took 3 years to make this game. I had very high hopes.
&lt;br /&gt;MUA 1 made big improvements over X-men Legends 2.
&lt;br /&gt;Shockingly MUA 2 takes several steps backwards.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I have returned my copy.
&lt;br /&gt;Definitely don&#039;t buy this. You can rent it if you want. But I suggest not to waste your time on this one.

		<description>Don&#039;t let apple continue ripping you off, don&#039;t buy their products. Search for other USP power adaptors.  Search under &quot;iPod USB travel adapter.  Apple doesn&#039;t have a right to rip you off after you paid hundreds of dollars for your iPod.

		<description>Almost all the reviews concertrated on how useful this thing is - no question about that. I give it one star becuse you can buy similar products for up to 1/6 the price.

		<description>When I bought my 3G 20GB iPod, this part was included.  Fortunately when I sold the iPod, I forgot to include it, because we are getting a Video today, and now I learn this item is not included.  Way to go Apple...I believe it is called fleecing your customers.  At least there is an alternative way to charge these...
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Very useful item, I agree, as much as I hate paying more, I also hate burning out a high dollar piece of electronics (iPod/Cell Phone/PDA/Laptop) because some company had monkeys putting them together in a remote jungle in Indonesia or something.  
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I have had too many friends lose cells in particular because of the $5 charger they found online or at the flea market.

		<description>I&#039;ve been looking for a reasonably-priced, high-performance flat-screen HDTV over 60 inches for a long time, and the new Samsung 63-inch low-energy plasma HDTV fits my needs in every way.  Amazon started selling this set just a few months ago and has a price that beats all the local merchants, and they ship it free.  I had to wait a couple of weeks for it, but it was well worth the wait.  The shipper handled it with &quot;kid gloves&quot;, air freighting it from Washington state to Hartford, CT and then trucking it to my house.  They brought it in, unpacked it, and turned it on to make sure it worked properly before they left.  I mounted it on the wall with a great mount (Sanus) that Amazon sells, and everyone who has seen it has been &quot;blown away&quot; by its performance.  The picture is very sharp and the colors just pop out at you, yielding and almost 3D effect.  The blacks are very clear and detailed, just like a great plasma set should be.  I&#039;m sure it helps that I get a very fine picture from Dish Network, which now has a lot of HD channels available.  It also works very well (great picture) with my current DVD player, which has component video output (no HDMI). This makes me reluctant to get a Blue Ray player, because they still seem to have a lot of problems (DVD rejections and no memorized stops).  All-in-all I couldn&#039;t be happier and I&#039;m glad I waited to get the right system to fit my needs.

		<description>Ordered the A650 model 3-4 weeks ago.  They had the best price and I was excited. A couple of weeks into it and many conflicting answers from them, I canceled the order.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Got a call back offering me the new model B550 for $400 less and better specifications.  After a quick research I decided to give them another shot.  Again, this in stock but not close .  Well a week later I call them to cancel my order and they tell me that the TV at the shipper, this is Friday the 3rd.  On Sunday the shipper calls and lets me know that the TV will be here next week.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Got it today, works beautifully.  Called Samsung and registered the TV as I was worried about that too.  But they did have my address so BF must have done something about it.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;All in all, quite an experiance, but nice to save almost $1000.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I&#039;ll be keeping my fingers crossed.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ordered the A650 model 3-4 weeks ago.  They had the best price and I was excited. A couple of weeks into it and many conflicting answers from them, I canceled the order.</p>
<p>Got a call back offering me the new model B550 for $400 less and better specifications.  After a quick research I decided to give them another shot.  Again, this in stock but not close .  Well a week later I call them to cancel my order and they tell me that the TV at the shipper, this is Friday the 3rd.  On Sunday the shipper calls and lets me know that the TV will be here next week.</p>
<p>Got it today, works beautifully.  Called Samsung and registered the TV as I was worried about that too.  But they did have my address so BF must have done something about it.</p>
<p>All in all, quite an experiance, but nice to save almost $1000.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be keeping my fingers crossed.<br />

		<description>I received this TV with great expectations, but within 10 minutes of viewing, I decided to go through the pain of returning this large item.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I have 2 other Samsung TV&#039;s, and I was particularly impressed with their A650 series LCD TV (LN46A650).  I expected same type of vividness out of this B550, but unfortunately, this one doesn&#039;t even come close.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;The brightness level is all off, and the color bleeds all over the screen.  After some tweaking, I concluded that the trouble is something more fundamental.  Basically we are dealing with something that cannot be adjusted via user interface.  Flesh color looks dead on the screen, and HD signal doesn&#039;t help either.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Maybe they cut the cost too much this year.  Maybe 550 series was never meant to complete with A650 series.  I&#039;m willing to give one more try with A650 plasma series from 2008, as B550 is the only item for 2009 so far.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;I just hope I don&#039;t have to go through too much trouble returning this TV.  I also hope that Samsung gets their act together and put out better product in the large category.

		<description>Ordered the Samsung PN63B550 from Amazon and it was damaged upon delivery by CEVA and returned to Amazon.  The replacement arrived and the entire panel was shattered, delivered again by CEVA.
&lt;br /&gt;  
&lt;br /&gt;Called Amazon&#039;s customer service and I&#039;ve been told they cannot get this TV for another 1-2 months.  A full refund has been requested and I&#039;ve been told that too will take several weeks.   Unbelievable.
&lt;br /&gt; 
&lt;br /&gt;I&#039;m very disappointed in shipping by CEVA and Amazon.  I would highly recommend NOT buying a TV from Amazon.  Their policies for shipping (no air freight, only truck) and refund policies are terrible. 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;If you plan on purchasing a nice TV, buy from a reputable LOCAL dealer and NOT AMAZON.  Think twice about the deals Amazon touts; sometimes it&#039;s too good to be true.

		<description>I purchased two HDMI cables. One for my XBOX 360 and one for my PS3. Honestly, i haen&#039;t been able to tell the difference between using these HDMI cables and my previous component cables. They both seem to give the same output. Maybe my TV sucks a lil bit (Sharp Aquos), but i&#039;ve seen blu-ray output on other TVs (Sony) and it looks way better than mine. (Same Movie) ...

		<description>BEWARE !!!  While the JBL Speaker docking station for my 120GIG Classic iPOD is great and sounds wonderful...
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;  BEWARE   Amazon.com will create a profile on its customers that is filled with Personal and Private information and make it available to anyone and everyone!!!
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;AND  try to contact their Customer Service via email or telephone and be prepared to spend a lot of time talking to INDIA and the Phillipines.
