Numark Axis 9 The best value cd deck for rookies and bedroom Djs

Advantages: Consistent, All main effects (scratch + key lock that WORKS)
Disadvantages: No built in memory

...I dj 2-3 times a week and often take my equipment in and out of venues so I need equipment that is durable and reliable. Ive had a pair of axis 9's for a few years now. They have turned out to be quite reliable and consistent where more expensive models weren't .. very important if you dj'ing at a gig. If you are a laptop Dj the Axis 9's works fine with all the major software, VDJ, Rockit, Traktor etc. There are some new features on the axis 9's along with all the standard feature on the axis series. Pitch-lock (called key-lock on numarks) is one of the most useful features I use and in my opinion axis 9's do this much better than others in a similar price range like 1200DZ or CDJ 200. They have very decent effects that are really easy to use, most notably, the scratch function which is a direct improvement from previous models like...

Review of Numark AXIS 9

MusicMan Axis Review

Advantages: Great for smaller hands. Lightweight. Easy to play.
Disadvantages: Floyd Rose Trem. Hard to get parts

...I won't bother boring you with the specs of this guitar, if you are looking to buy it you will probably already know them already! Just for reference, the model I have is the orange quilt top with maple fingerboard. The Axis has a Floyd Rose, as opposed to the Super Sport which I believe is more akin to a fixed bridge. I am not keen on Floyd Rose trems due to the extra hassle with tuning and changing strings, but that is pretty much all I can fault with this guitar. The neck is absolutely incredible, especially for someone with smaller hands. It is my favourite guitar to play, as it suits my hands so well with its narrow neck and short scale, it's much easier than guitars such as PRS and Jacksons of similar price, which have wider necks. I find the MusicMan does not produce particularly clean sounds when amplified; that is to say...

Labtec axis 301

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: None

...Being an online gamer i decided to go out and purchase a headphone set so i could talk in person to my fellow gamers instead of typing into the games chat all the time (which often resulted in me letting my team down as i would get shot whilst typing) The main criteria for my purchase was... 1. Needed to be hands free with a mic attached to the headset. 2. Needed to have a long enough cable to reach my sound card without being streched. 3. Needed to be cheap, i didnt want to pay silly prices for something i would only use 3 times a week!!. Enter the Labtec axis 301, it is all of the above, it was simple to setup and came provided with a 2.4 metre cable which is ample for me. The product also supports speech recognition although i havnt had the oppturnity to test the accuracy of this feature yet and a 1 years manufacture...

Review of Labtec Axis 301

Just ask the Axis, he knows everything

Advantages: Some great rock songs here
Disadvantages: A forgotten album

...Axis: Bold As Love with its fantastic spaced-out cover art, showing the band as kind of like Hindu deities (cobras, elephants, kings, girls, firebreathers, the lot) was The Jimi Hendrix Experience's second release after "Are You Experienced?" in 1966. The passage of time has seen this album somewhat overshadowed by their debut and the later "Electric Ladyland" complete with their no 1 smash single, the famous and totally brilliant Voodoo Chile. But that's getting a bit ahead of ourselves so let's get back to this interesting record which has 13 songs in all and clocks in at a respectable 46 minutes. The late 1960's was the era of the power trio, with such bands as Cream, Gun, and the US outfit Mountain playing hard rock with fuzzy guitars and heavy bass rythyms. Indeed the Experience's bassist, Noel Redding, was...

Review of Axis: Bold As Love [Remastered] - Jimi Hendrix Experience (The)

PS3 SixAxis

Advantages: +Lightweight +Great battery life +Motion-sensing
Disadvantages: -No rumble

...ones after a while. They also don’t break easily, as you may expect from such a light controller, I've dropped mine several times and it works fine! Another difference from the ps2 controller is that the R2 and L2 are no longer "buttons" but more "triggers", this makes them easier to use and allows more control on things such as shooters. "SixAxis" refers to the motion sensing capabilities, the "six axis" are up-down, left-right, forward-back, rotate left-right, rotate up-down and rotate sideways. Most games contain some form of using the motion sensor, however you won't actually use it in quite a few games. Some games manage to use the SixAxis motion sensing really poorly, and some use the motion sensing amazing. For example in Heavenly Sword you can fire a crossbow bolt, or throw something and then steer it using the SixAxis, this...

Axis Vs Allies round 2

Advantages: It's Free, It's Wolfenstein Multiplayer
Disadvantages: Most Servers Have Custom Maps Meaning Uber Download Time

...Enemy Territory is an online game that costs nothing to own. All you have to do is find it on the Internet, download it, then enjoy. Brought to you by Activision and Id, who are known for making the Doom and Quake series and have also produced one of the best gaming engines to date. The original Wolfenstein game was a leading pioneer in the way we play our first person shooters today and led to successful games like Doom and Doom 2. Then once Id software had made their genius Quake series, they then made Return To Castle Wolfenstein. This contained a single campaign where you cruised through wartime Germany following a fictional story about Himmler's crazy super-monsters that were in development to win the war. This also contained an excellent multiplayer, which acted as a stepping-stone towards the game I am currently reviewing. You...

Review of Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory (PC)

Gears Of War 2

Advantages: Fantastic Gameplay and Playability
Disadvantages: Not your typical 3rd person shooter (taking cover is required!)

...The heavy hitting "Gears Of War" was a giant step into the world of future gaming, it's mind blowing in-game graphics and fantastic gameplay gave birth to a game which was not only playable once..but endless! times."Gears Of War 2" packs a much larger punch.With a lot of hours placed into the making of GOW:2 to guarantee fans of the original be satisfied, they have managed to make a game which will not only test your skill but will force you to think up a cunning strategy..or a thousand.Computer A.I (in game characters) will react to your every move,which is good if your pinned down behind a blown up vehicle with constant fire and need a hand from a comrade.However this can also be reversed in the way that if you have a enemy locked down your iron sight...he is going to call in his "friends" to help get you out his path.Gears 2 is all...

Six Axis Dosent Provide A BIg Shock!

Advantages: Six Axis Feature Is Good!
Disadvantages: Dualshock!

...The PS3 Six Axis Wireless Controller is a revolution in the gaming but is not as good as the wii remote and how it reacts to the game. I am glad that they kept the design the same but feel that it should have the range of features the wii does to make it even better. I feel the best part is the fact that it is rechargeable and will last for about 10 hours of game play and can be charged from the PS3 system in less than an hour. It is really top quality and a great revolution in the world of gaming. The new trigger buttons are a really great addition and the games like FIFA 2008 change the button to R2 as sprint because of the ease and control that you now have over the trigger button. The poor feature of the controller is the dual shock which really does need to be included in the new version of the controller but the cost maybe...

Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.5 GHz - 17" TFT

Advantages: nice screen, good battery life, fast specs
Disadvantages: large size (price?)

...Apple mac-books, where to start... ok, so to start, it is an apple, that means you get a solid quality product and on the whole very good customer are. this particualar apple is deffinatly more suited to being a media center than other laptops. At first glance you realise that it is a fairly large laptop, this allows for a big screen, which being an apple ffers clear vivid displays, unfortunatly the big screen increases the overal size and also uses more battery, however, the 4.5 hour yattery is still very good for an entertainment laptop. The laptops technical specs include a very fast 2.5 ghz dual core proccesor which is very fast, the dual core allows it to tackle multiple tasks quicly as well as increasing the overall speed of the laptop. The price is quite steep however, but i believe, if given the money, it is...

my gears of war 2 review

Advantages: great graphics, Fun
Disadvantages: Slow matchmaking

...Campaign I really enoyed the first campagin but as money reviewers stated it was quite short and the ending did annoy some. Thankfully the story is much better off this time round. The story follows macrus and dom on an emotional story to finish off the locust and find doms wife maria. Presentation As gears of war 1 looked so incredible many different reviewers questioned if gears of war 2 could look any better than the first. But since epics showing of the newly updated unreal engine peoples minds started to beleive and gladly they did. The graphics are incredible, bascially mindblowing. They have improved alot than the first gears of war, with added extras like new water effects you cant go wrong. Multiplayer The multiplayer is pretty much the same as the first but with some tweaks. Firstly the shotguns damgaed has been...
