Product Description
Almost 90% of mankind has been killed off following a devastating meteor strike that hascaused a massive dust cloud to blot out the sun. Scattered survivors pick through the wreckage, and the remnants of several military superpowers patrol the ravaged landscape, some factions protecting the innocent while the others prey upon them. The two rival world superpowers, Rubinelle and Lazuria, continue to fight among the ruins of their countries, the few surviving military leaders of each side carrying on the conflict begun before the catastrophe. In their wake, various warlords rise to power, seizing scarce food rations from the defenseless survivors and attempting to assert their dominance in the absence of law and order. Follow the Rubinelle COs Will, Brenner, and Lin as they embark on a mission to rescue as many of the survivors as possible, with the help of the mysterious Isabella, an amnesiac girl who seems to know vital military secrets, and various other sympathetic factions.

Required for DVD functionality on the Xbox
Amazon.com Review
Got an Xbox? Do you enjoy watching DVDs? Then you need one of these. This DVD playback kit unlocks the DVD functionality of Microsoft’s powerful Xbox and helps make the console an even more important addition to your home entertainment deck.
Feeling rather light in hand, this remote features large keys that feel rubbery yet firm. The kit sports some of the basic functions you’d expect from a common controller, including chapter skip, play, pause, and number buttons. There’s also handy 32x fast-forward and reverse controls.
Pressing the display button calls up a friendly onscreen menu that allows access to more features, including up to 10x magnification, A-B playback loop (for cueing and viewing favorite scenes repeatedly), and subtitle and audio options. It’s worth noting that many lower-cost DVD remotes have access to such features through the press of a button. The fact that this one requires you to use a menu to access such common commands may rankle DVD aficionados, as the menu is a bit slower than using buttons. Still, the menu is quite intuitive and couldn’t be much easier to use.
For the remote to work, you’ll need to plug the included infrared receiver into an open controller port on the Xbox. Most gamers will never need to unplug the receiver again, as you can plug it into the rarely used fourth port. Interestingly, the receiver works best when the remote is operated almost directly in front of it, and can be a little finicky when signals are sent from the far left or right.
The couch potato crowd won’t be thrilled to learn that the remote does not include power or eject buttons. Why such standard features were omitted escapes us, but that is far and away the worst thing we can say about an otherwise decent control. –Mark Brooks
Pros:
Though very lightweight, the controller seems sturdily made and the buttons are large and comfy
Uses any of the 4 Xbox game controller ports; rarely gets in the way
Gives the Xbox cool DVD playback features
Onscreen menu is very easy to use
Cons:
No power or eject buttons
A-B looping, subtitles, and language selects–as well as other features–are only accessible via onscreen menus
Cannot use the remote from far to the left or right of the sensor
