This is not like the Frogger we knew and loved, November 10, 1999

By A Customer

= Durability: = Fun: = Educational:

This review is from: Frogger (Video Game)

Grand visions of my favorite arcade game from the 80's filled my head as I purchased the new Frogger. I rushed home and put it in my Playstation only to be completely frustrated. The first level is like the old Frogger I remembered, but the rest is completely different. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind change, but the least these people could have done was created a game that was playable. It is very difficult, and after a couple of frustrating days I put the game away to collect dust. It's not just me, friends have reported the same thing. Be warned, those of you who are trying to recapture your youth, it's not the same old Frogger we knew and loved.

Frogger is 3-D, June 12, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Frogger (Video Game)

Frogger is a great game. The object is to save 5 little frogs. (yellow,red,green,blue & purple) Then you can go to the other levels. Sounds too easy? It's not. You are timed & you have to make sure you don't fall into lava, run into spiders or fall in the water. (It is weird but in this game frogs can't swim.)You can also play with up to 4 people in multi-player mode. In multi-player mode you try to get 5 flags instead of 5 frogs. You are not timed. Whoever gets 5 flags first wins.

Frogger, November 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Frogger (Video Game)

The new Frogger is a combination of easy fun and frustratingly hard. It is a bit addicting - my friends and I just HAD to get past a certain level before we turned off the console.. but it gets to the point where one would like to start to tear his/her hair out. The first level is the best (that's the classic Frogger), the second level sort of leaves me wondering where i am supposed to be hopping, the third level is impossible (i think it's just there for show), and it continues on like that -- some levels are tricky and fun, others are just not possible to complete, and others are very ambiguous about how to get to the goals. All in all, i liked the game. It has simple controls and it's fun to play by yourself or with a friend.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Playstation2 Analog Controller for Ps2 (Black Color) (Accessory)

This controller gets the job done it is great for 2 player games. It is basic it does not have the sony ps2 logo on it and i also noticed the cord is a little shorter than the ps2 original controller that came with the ps2 console. This is not a big deal to me as my kids do not know the difference as long as it works and it does. But for someone who likes brand names this should be noted.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Atari, Anniversary Edition Redux (Video Game)

I bought this game mainly for Asteroids, centipide and Black widow.I played the other games but those 3 where the ones i liked more.I am ussing the PS3 80G 2usb port and a 1080p LCD tv to play this games and I can't get to see the laser shots in both Asteroids and Asteroids Deluxe, this is frustrating because you can hear the sound of the shots but not see them.ALso try playing PONG with the PS3 control !!!! it's nearly imposible to control the sliding bar and rebound the ball; same aplies to Super Breakout.
One more thing, in the description and on the CD it says you get a FREE ATARI STICKER, this is not true.I looked everywhere and i couldn't find it.

Bushnell's classic 1971 anthology, June 26, 2004

Kathleen Kenney (Bay Point,CA USA) -

This review is from: Atari, Anniversary Edition Redux (Video Game)

In 1971,Nolan Bushnell invented the first video game,Pong.He decided to call its company Susiucchiee.But Later he changed the company's name to Atari because no one seemed to know how to spell or pronounce the original.I really love this game.Plus it also has interviews with Nolan Bushnell,Atari Memorabilla,Excerpts fom the book known as Phoenix and a free sticker.I have this on the Playstaion format.I love playing Asteroids,Asteroids Deluxe,BattleZone,Missle Command,Black Widow and Centipede but Pong was what made this disk great.Buy the 30th annioversary edition today.

A blast from the past worth revisiting, February 7, 2002

Earl Green -

This review is from: Atari, Anniversary Edition Redux (Video Game)

Though some of these games - namely Asteroids, Centipede, Missile Command and Tempest - have been featured on past Playstation compilations before (as well as updated into more modern versions of themselves), it's nice to see them again in this compilation. "Atari Anniversary Redux" offers half a dozen games not previously emulated for the Playstation: Gravitar, Black Widow, Asteroids Deluxe, Pong, Warlords and Space Duel. It's also a big step up for the vector graphics games, with two modes of resolution to make sure the game is as sharp as it can be on your monitor. The cabinet art is a neat touch, but luckily it can be turned off since it often compresses the playing field into an almost unplayably small size. The Nolan Bushnell interviews are nice, as is the slide show of Atari memorabilia, but then games are what really count, and they're represented well here.

Comment on Logitech USB Headset H530 with Premium Laser-Tuned Audio (981-000195) by Dave "Dave"

Only so-so given a couple of things, July 20, 2010

Dave "Dave" (New York, NY USA) -

This review is from: Logitech USB Headset H530 with Premium Laser-Tuned Audio (981-000195) (Personal Computers)

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)

First, let me say that I have an earlier version of this headset from Logitech and that it hasn't changed much, though the current price is about 50% more than I paid for it 4 years ago.

On the upside,

1) The sound of the headphones is decent, and it works well for very casual music listening and for use with things like Skype.

2) Being a USB headset, there are no drivers (in XP or 7), you just plug it in and it works and while plugged in becomes the default speaker/microphone. Thus you're not dependent on a sound card or drivers.

3) The microphone worked very well for things like Skype.

4) There is a volume control that very conveniently controls the system volume, not just what's allowed to get through the headset.

On the downside,

1) The sound is decent, but not all that great for $50. It's certainly as good or better than many computer speakers, but not nearly as good as many.

2) BIG DEAL: They are heavy and uncomfortable. On my head, and a couple of other people who tried them, the cushion around the edge isn't very cushiony and it's not enough to keep the mesh (behind which are the speakers) from pressing against one's ears.

Overall, if you're going to use them for short periods of time, and are going to mix music with using them for conversation (with things like Skype) then they do the job. But if you're going to use them mostly for conversation, then you will probably be much happier with a headset designed just for that, and if your primary concern is music, then get something just for that.
