All in all it is a great accessory to your controller and makes my controller look bad a**. However ever if your looking for a more vinyl/plastic skin this is not for you. It is more of a thick sticker that sticks real well.

The decal came in pretty quickly and was really easy to put on the controller and it looks great on it.

I have an HD-TV with only one HDMI input, and I wanted to connect both my PS3 and HTPC to it. I was interested in getting some sort of switch so that I wouldn't have to manually re-plug the cable every time I wanted to change between the two. All of the other solutions were crazy expensive or generally reviewed as unreliable, so I decided to grab this smart switch as it is cheap and was reviewed well on other sites.

I was actually kind of skeptical about the "smartness" of this thing, as I keep my HTPC on -allthe time, so I had a feeling it would get stuck on that input, and I would just have to use the manual override when I wanted to play my PS3 (which I do power off). I would have been totally fine with this (pressing the button to switch is easy), but when I got the unit, it was smart enough to figure out that when I turned on my PS3, that's what I wanted to use. As a result the thing works -perfectly-, and I don't have to touch it at all.

Great deal.

This does the job.

I have a Scientific Atlanta converter box and PS3 connected to a Sony Bravia TV. One of the HDMI connectors on the TV broke and I bought this instead of having the TV fixed. When I turn the PS3 on, the TV switches to the PS3 even if the cable box is on. Shut off the PS3 and you are back to TV. It also has a switch to select an input, even with both on.

It comes with all the cables you need, they are somewhat stiff, so the box will not sit on top of anything. I have in hanging behind the TV. I can just reach under the TV and hit the button. The only time I need to use the button is when I am downloading on the PS3 and want to watch TV. The PS3 is the priority for the switch.

If it had a priority for the last device on and would sit better, I would give it 5 stars.

I have a Sony Bravia with only one HDMI port on the back and I have two HMDI devices I need to attach: 1. ) DirecTV+ HD DVR and 2.) Panasonic DMP-BD35K 1080p Blu-ray Player. I had tried some other HDMI switches (ie. Terk HDMI-31 Smart Switch, but it didn't work with the Panasonic Blu-Ray playerm, the Terk wouldn't pass the HDMI 1.3a signal to the TV), so I tried this Universal HDMI Quick and it worked great. I have both my DirecTV HD DVR and the Panasonic Blu-Ray player connected through the Universal HDMI Quick Switch and then to my TV and they work fine.

The Auto-switching between devices doesn't work perfectly because when I turn off a device, it doesn't really go off, just goes into standby mode, regardless, if it doesn't switch, just press the button on the Universal HDMI Quick Switch and it manually toggles between the two connected devices. If auto-switching between devices doesn't work for you and you really don't want to get off the couch to press the button to toggle between devices, then you may want to look at HDMI switches with a remote control.

It even comes with an extra HMDI cable...my blu-ray player didn't even come with an HDMI cable, so having this extra one was a good thing.

Simple two port switch that gets the job done better than more expensive HDMI switches that may not support HDMI 1.3a and higher.

The item works, I'll give it that...but it doesn't work well. I plugged in a PS3 and an xbox 360 into this device. The 360 worked fine, but the PS3 didn't. When I would walk by the tv, the picture would fade in and out (meaning that the movement of the floor would shift the device and screw up the picture). Eventually, this started happening when I wasn't walking by it and actually sitting on my couch. It worked occasionally, but I'm not sure that you would want to take a chance with it costing bucks. It's up to you. It may do what you want, just not all the time.

I only have one HDMI input for my LCD TV and I put my PS3 and HD Cable box to this. It works great that even my wife knows how to work it (she hates technology). If you are watching TV and then decide to power up the PS3 for netflix...tada...the PS3 is now showing. No fiddling with switches or any of that nonsense. And when you turn the PS3 off....tada...back to HD cable TV like magic. It's simple and simplicity speaks volumes. I like the fact that it came with an extra v1.3 HDMI cable since I didn't have one and the switch has a low profile. Highly recommend this product.

Tekken had once been a favorite of mine back in the PS1 days. I played Tekken 2 and Tekken 3 religously with a group of friends. I then skipped out on Tekken 4 and 5. With the hype of Street Fighter IV rekindling my interest in fighting games, I decided to go with the LE Version of Tekken 6 to get the fight stick to play it with.

Tekken 6:

+ Easy for the inexperienced button-mashers to play

+ A very large roster of characters with varied fighting styles.

+ New moves and rythms for veterans to discover and experiment with.

+ No time need be wasted unlocking fighters, but plenty of unlockable costumes

+ Fun story mode offer's adventure and a break from the 1-on-1 fighting.

+ Online play is now great since the recent Patch

Gameplay is slower than it's contemporaries.

Graphics are really not very impressive.

Load times seem to be long even after installing.

LE bundle contents:

+ The fight stick is very easy to sync and set up

+ The fight stick has a good solid feel

+ No discernable input lag

+ High quality, hardcover art book is interesting to page through.

+ Fighting Stick can be used on PC games

+ Multiple wireless fighting sticks can be used at once

No bluetooth, requires dongle

Wireless Makes Fight Stick useless for tournaments

Stock Hori parts can feel vague, buttons can be mushy.

Fight Stick is not easily modified.

Questionable Value at $150 (very much worth it at Amazon's discounted prices in the gold box though!!)

THE GAME: 8/10

Tekken 6 gave no trouble for me to get into after abandoning the Tekken series for the last several iterations. The gameplay felt familiar and I was pulling off some old staple moves and combos with Paul and Heihachi in no time.

Tekken is unique in that it uses more directional taps and button+direction type moves rather the all the directional charges, half circle and quarter circle of SF. Tekken has a unique button layout, assigning one button to each limb. This making combos and moves easier to replicate simply by witnessing them. It also is different in that blocking is achieved by standing or crouching in a neutral direction. additionally, The game plays more like a 2D/3D hybrid rather than using full free 3D movement like Soul Calibur, primarily reserving 3D movements for quick sidesteps and evasion rolls.

Combos are still easy enough for beginners to pull off. Tekken allows liberal juggeling of airborne opponents, which further sets it apart from it's competition. You can easily get 2-3 juggle hits on your opponent nearly every time you strike them or bounce them up in the air. However, the big 10 hit combos and the more technical moves simply won't happen by accident and take practice to not only know how to do them, but when.

Tekken 6 offers a "story campaign" mode, in the vein of the the Tekken force modes first seen in Tekken 3. While this mode does add more content to the game and help to flesh out the story, it doesn't play all that well. I found the Tekken Force mode of Tekken 3 much more enjoyable. Tekken 3 offered co-op right from the start, but not so in this campaign story mode. The hybrid 3d controls are ambitious, but flawed. Taking on multiple attackers is confusing as the targeting system is not very good. You must press R1 to switch targets repeatedly until your character faces the correct one. This can take sever cycles and leave you open to attack. The Campaign Story is a nice side-element to the game, but don't get the idea that it is the focus of Tekken 6 no matter how much Namco hyped it. The real game still lies in the Arcade and Vs. modes.

The online mode is not all that I would have hoped for in regard to performance. I have noticed games to be very laggy, only getting one good game out of maybe 10 at this point. It is frustrating, as I am a decent tekken player, but I lose to people using stale moves because my timing is blown from the latency maing it difficult to use counter and parrying. Essentially, this ruins the complexity of the game online and dumbs it down to just timing simple button-press combos. When I do get a good connection, it's great, but at this point I plan to do most of my vs. matching locally.

The online also allows you to save replays, which I am surprised it took this long for a fighting game to add. occassionally you will fight a laggy opponent, but when you both have good connections the game feels good. Perhaps not quite as good as SF IV's online feels, but on par with Soul Calibur's if not better.

Another area where Tekken 6 is a bit lackluster is in the visuals. The graphics look almost last gen. Some of the broken paralex stages just look bizzare. Comparing this game to Soul Calibur IV, which came out last year from the same publisher, it falls short. Character models almost seem to look polygonal, which I thought was gone from this gen of consoles. It is certainly not awful, but after seeing Killzone 2, Uncharted 2, SC IV and Modern Warfare 2, this game just seems very unpolished.Fortunately, great graphics aren't needed for fun gamepaly. Tekken 6 shines in it's accessability and smooth controls. It's any every-man's fighting game.

Tekken online has more features than Soul Calibur IV, but does not hold up to the performance of SF IV, SC IV or Blaze Blue. I won't be giving up SF IV for this, but Soul calbur IV will be gathering dust for a bit. Overall I would give Tekken an 8/10 due to the robust content, with a tilt of 7/10. It's a step up, but not the big improvement some may have hoped for. However, if you're like me and had been out of Tekken for years, this is much greater than Tekken 3 or 4, but only a minor improvement over Tekken 5.

LIMITED EDITION: 7/10

So, I'll get this gripe off my chest first. It is utterly ridiculous to use bluetooth if no accessories can use it. Sony needs to start allowing licensed products to use Bluetooth. That would have made this the perfect wireless stick. Since it uses a dongle, the stick will not work with PS2 games currently if you have a BC PS3. I was hoping to be able to play R-Type Final and Contra: SS with this, but it is just not possible currently.

That being as it may, The dongle is only a slight annoyance. Hori at least made synchronizing it as simple as pushing the X button. The arcade stick uses 2 AAs which may seem bad at first, but it does allow a longer battery life than if it were to use Lithium Ion like the Dual Shock 3. I have not noticed a hint of controller lag either.

Make no mistake though, this is closer to the Fighting Stick 3 than an HRAP3. The buttons have a decent feel, but can be a bit mushy at times. Replacing with high quality parts would be no simple task. The internal parts are not readily accessable since hori used a tri-wing screw type. Buttons are soldered to the PCB and the stick is not easily replaced due to the battery location and very slim profile case. Modding it can be done, but it will not be easy.This stick emphasizes convenience over durability and performance, and really it does quite well with that. To most gamers this will be far better than the control pad. Personally I am happy with it, even with it's shortcomings.

The Art book really looks nice and is a Hardcover. It has some info on the characters and how they were conceived. A nice compliment to the game for Tekken fans.

The added price of the LE bundle is worth it if you are looking to get an arcade stick and don't plan on entering tournaments or, if like me, you simply wanted the convenience of wireless stick. Otherwise, choose the Hori HRAP3 SA or Madcatz TE sticks if you don't mind the wire. As with all arcade sticks, transitioning from a control pad will be akward at first, but it will allow you much higher potential for fighting games. I have noticed having a fighting stick makes those who you would normally be turned off by the complexity of the DS3 jump right into playing on the more purpose-built, simpler arcade stick. Having 2 fight sticks is a blast for parties or family get togethers.

I am an avid Tekken player. I've been a fan of the series since Tekken 2. The game is great. This review is for the joystick included in the LE. I've used other joysticks in the past. I actually have the Hori Soul Calibur 4 stick. The tekken stick feels a bit lower in quality than the Soul Calibur stick I have been playing with. There isn't much weight to the stick, but I suppose different strokes for different folks, eh? The main problem I have with the stick is that it just doesn't meet my standards. There is an incredible amount of free play in the joystick. I've measured and its about 1/4 of an inch of free play moving the stick in any direction. (meaning that before you can move the stick to the left, right, up, down, etc. you must first overcome the 1/4 inch free play before it recognizes input). The buttons feel very spongy and have a bit of resistance to them. I'm used to playing with arcade sticks so it will take a bit of time to get used to this one. I bought this as a secondary stick and because I couldn't pass up buying the bundle for $74. It will work fine as a secondary stick. I would make the following analogy concerning this arcade stick. If you ever have been to a friends house and he has but two controllers... 1) standard dual shock and 2) a third party dual shock (pelican). Which would you prefer? Playing with this stick is a bit like that. There are better ones out there but it will get the job done. I will be investing in the Street Fighter Tournament stick made by mad catz though. As for input lag.... I did notice slight lag playing SF remix (downloadable on PS store). However, I did not notice any while playing Tekken 6.

For someone on the fence about buying this:

If you are looking for a wireless stick...go for it.

If you want a quality arcade stick, look elsewhere.

If this is your first arcade stick... go elsewhere.

If you have a quality stick and just want another so that your friends don't complain about you being the only one with an arcade stick...Go for it. Just make sure that you are not the one using the Tekken stick :)

For the money paid it is ok.

First off do not listen to all the Tournament Edition Arcade Stick fanboys on the internet. This wireless stick is a quite good stick.

It is not as nice or good as the Tournament Edition ones, but it is not supposed to be.

I also have a Marvel vs Capcom Tournament Edition Arcade Stick and though it is much better I highly recommend the wireless tekken 6 one as a second, or to those who are not into fighting games enough to blow a buck fifty on just a stick......... With the prices Amazon has you get a game and a stick for almost half the price.......And the art book no one cares about.

The wireless has yet to cause me any problems, nor have the stick or buttons.... When and if they do I will swap everything out for Sanwa Parts, though this stick is a little harder than some it shouldnt be a problem for anyone who has modded one before or has basic soldering and reading skills.

I really enjoy this stick and find it great for friends to use so they dont tear up my Tournament Edition...... Do not beleve everything you read, this is far from a crap stick. Some people are just too far on Mad Catz pole to realize it.

Oh and the game is good too, lol

Read Best Reviews of Tekken 6 Limited Edition Wireless Fight Stick Bundle Here

Tekken 6 is probably the best in the series so far. It has almost everything you want from a fighting game: lots of characters , lots of modes to play and the graphics in fighting game ever ( I'm so surprised that some people say that the graphics are awful or that it's not better than the legendary Soul Calibur IV ) Tekken & Soul Calibur have always been my two favorite fighting games and fortunately I liked the game a lot. The only bad about the game is the online mode which I was very disappointed from it. It's very laggy and it's hard to play a good match because of that.

so my overall score for Tekken 6 is 9.0 / 10

Now the "Limited Edition"

The fighting stick is good and also wireless which makes even better. I don't know if it's the best or not since it's my first fighting stick. also it works on the PC.

There's actually noting special in the limited edition and with the original price it's a complete robbery but I know Amazon's Legendary Price I couldn't resist buying it.

so my overall score for the limited edition is 6.5 / 10

but with Amazon's Price 10/10 because it's almost half the original price and if you're a Tekken fan you really can't let this one pass you

I got myself this stick as a gift to myself for my 18th birthday. I can honestly say I would never play a fighting game on a pad again. I received this the first week of July. Within a month, the spring on the joystick was loose and the screws are impossible to take out unless you have a Y head screwdriver. A few days ago, I was getting ready to play Street Fighter X Tekken and the controller was not working. I thought the batteries were dead, but brand new ones didn't do anything. I can only assume the receiver died. I will never get a wireless stick again. I have my eyes set on either a Qanba Q1, Q2, or a reasonably priced MadCatz Fightstick TE/Pro.

I bought this cable with the sole purpose of extending the short cable that the Playstation Eye has been designed with. I already own a USB extension cable that I bought from a local electronics store but that cable does not allow the Playstation Eye to connect to the PS3 for some reason. This cable allows the PS3 EYE to connect to the PS3.

Simply put, this cable does what it is supposed to do, but you may not need it. I didn't know until I got the camera, but the stock USB/power cable it comes with, is 6.5 feet long, so before you buy this extension cable, think about your set-up and whether you need "extra" cable. I won't give this product a low score, because it does its job. I failed to research the Eye Camera and its cable length.

If you still want this extension, you can't go wrong at its current price. The cable is well made, but it isn't anything fancy. It's basic plastic shielded, not braided; its connections both male and female nickle/tin plated, but they still work and do their job without any issues. Hope this helps.

I have it connected to the Sony Move Eye and it powers it up just fine. The length is also handy and this cable could be used for anything USB related if needed.

I bought this at BestBuy and used a $15 off coupon so it was worth it to me. I have been wanting to play 'Resistance:FOM' for some time and with this dual pack I get the second one too. I doubt I will be ready for Resistance 3 which is right around the corner, but at least I will know some of the gameplay, characters and story if I decide to buy and play the game anyway.

There isn't much to say about this item. on a basic level, it's worth the money if you're starting from the beginning and want to get caught up or just want to get into this series. Resistance is still a downloadable demo so I suggest that first. This game is pretty hard. I can't imagine it on a harder level, that's suicide. It take some getting used too, and a lot of dying, but you will eventually get the hang of it. Shooters are usually harder than RPG's anyway.

The gameplay is fun and so is the surrounding atmosphere. I love my fellow soldiers, although I'm terrible at saving/protecting them. Gotta work on that. The gameplay is fast and frantic, and if you don't die a thousand times you will probably finish in a decent time.

I think we need more dual packs, but the price can be a little better than $39. about $29 is good enough, especially if the game is pretty old, like the first Resistance is. I can use a dual pack of Bioshock 1 and 2.

Great buy tho!

If you have a PS3 and you are a fan of FPS, then stop reading this review and buy these games! Resistance is one of the best franchises in the industry. The story is fantastic and will keep you interested and intrigued. Graphics will not impress you. These games are definitely showing their age, but it doesn't distract from the experience. I'm a firm believer that graphics aren't everything. The gameplay is smooth, but there is a bit of a learning curve if you are picking up the first game for the first time. The control scheme can be a bit weird now because almost every shooter uses the Call of Duty control style. Sound is great with both games and it will immerse you. BOTTOM LINE: Buy these games. Even if it isn't the Dual Pack. If you own a PS3 and love FPS shooters, there really isn't any reason you shouldn't have these games in your library.

I would hae to say the story line was quite good. Very interesting incorporating such a story during that time period. My only dislikes about this pack was the adaptation from the first to second game. They did a pretty dramatic change in controller functions from the first to the 2nd. It wasn't hard to get use to but I sort of liked the feel of the first games controlls better than the 2nds.
