From What I see, There is nothing lost on my end. The game plays very good. The shadows still look  good like they did in patch six. The trees look quite well also. Game play was very smooth. Some of it felt a tad too smooth. But i am not complaining about that. it’s just i am used to certain things lagging a whole lot . When it doesn’t I kind of over steer.

one tiny error during install.

Install Error

This error is nothing. It just confused windows lol. Everything was fine.

Patch seven, very good. I didn’t even have to update drivers this time. But still waiting on latest Nvidia and ATi drivers to be released.

I would say full ten but there is a tree issue I see from time to time.

Android, Shop Savvy Barcode scanner

The Shop Savvy Barcode Scanner for androids

The application gives some sense of security. Knowing that you can scan an item and check local prices that might be better than what you are about to pay for the item at the establishment you are at currently. There is a downside though.  It seems the application only finds Target Stores, I mean the store with the big circle looking like a dartboard target.

On some occasions it does  show Walgereens. Really it should show  more than one  vendor location. instead what ever vendor  they choose, they show all locations of that vendor. It is supposed to show you the cheapest place to purchase the item. See  I think that might be a bit of bs. I have a feeling it’s a sponsored  programs, like just an advertisement market. it does no search other than your location, and how to find their sponsor who carries said product. See I bought a coffee bean  Grinder from Kroger for 9.99 (I am not paying $100+ for a grinder, I’m just not. While standing in Kroger I scanned it, the results I got said  Target for $12.99. i looked down at the price on  the shelf, 9.99 ..

The model I got was  proctor Silex fresh Grind  model number E160B. Barcode 0 22333 91600 1 . Here it is at Target  for 12.99 . Sorry Kroger does not have it on their site but

LOL that should do. Don’t bother scanning car parts, because clearly they have no car parts sponsors.
