    Ryse Reviews

    Probably the most anticipated launch game for the Xbox One unless Dead Rising is more of your thing. Unfortunately, reviews aren't looking so hot right now. Ryse: Son of Rome for Xbox One Reviews - Metacritic

    MS and Retail Stores

    I hadn't given this much thought, but I went to my local GameStop and Best Buy to see what the local opinion was with the employees in regards to both consoles. I was a bit shocked to see GameStop throwing their complete weight behind Sony, whereas Best Buy was a bit pro PS4, but nothing like...

    Best Buy's E3 Wii U Promotion Ambushed by MS

    Given the website, take this with whatever grain of salt you want. However, it seems like it's also popping up on twitter as well. Basically, for those who don't know. Best Buy is running a promotion with Nintendo, in which they allow customers to play some of the E3 games at selected stores...

    Considering Getting Surface Pro...

    Here's the situation, basically my work is offering me compensation on the 64 GB model. All in all with a touch or type keyboard, I'm looking at 50% off. I'm in desperate need of a PC, given our house uses mostly Apple products. The Lumia 920 just does not do well with my MBP in regards to...

    Experience with Asurion?

    Hey guys, so unfortunately, my white 920 cracked pretty badly. Despite already having some issues (battery, loose unibody, battery moving inside), I didn't want to deal with any potential replacements until I broke it. I'm gonna be paying a 125 dollar deductible, and judging from what people...

    Why does battery increase after reboot?

    This is the strangest thing I've seen. My battery on idle drains about 3-4% per hour, and I assumed it was due to having 5 background tasks + a few live tiles. However, I've done a reboot the past three days, and I've seen my battery jump back up. Today, after 10 hours, it went from 60% to 90%...

    People tile has gone blank...

    Don't even know how this happened. I noticed that when I unlock my phone, my people tile is all blank, and will start flipping to pictures of my contacts. Lock the phone, unlock it, and the people tile has gone back to blank. This also happens when I scroll down, scroll back up, the people tile...

    Camera and white lights

    This is something I've noticed with my camera, and that is that anytime there are flourescent white lights in the picture, they come out over exaggerated to say the least. Granted, I am shooting on auto, but I'm wondering what I can do to address this...

    Will AT&T cancel new activation fees?

    Here's my situation. My family is 3 months out from our T-Mobile contract expiring. We currently pay 225 for unlimited data on all lines. Going to AT&T, our bill is looking to be 260 (after you count taxes and corporate discount). I've done some other math and here is what I'm looking at. A...

    Why are Nokia Drive and Maps different apps?

    I was playing with the 920 at the AT&T store for an hour, and was playing with my friend's for a while earlier today. For the life of me, I could not figure out why it's that...if I type in an address in Nokia Maps, it will give me a list of directions, but not an option to start the navigation...

    General WP Questions

    I'll be brief. I was playing with the 920 today at a store and couldn't figure two things out... 1. Can you have multiple colored tiles? It seems like you're stuck with one color barring certain apps (AT&T is orange and Xbox is green) 2. Can you change the color of the Music/Video app? Not...

    Sync app for mac?

    I'm a lover of all tech. I own a macbook pro, I plan on getting a Windows Phone 8, and for my tablet, I am looking at the Nexus 7. So yeah, while I will miss out on the whole "ecosystem", I just love playing with all three OS'. My question is, I've always heard Windows Phone 7 never played nice...
