"Extremely good, very professional & unlike the rest"
5 stars"

This is the only game capture I can find that does its encoding on-board, great hardware and very easy software to get started on though you'll quickly outgrow the software. Being able to play & record on the same system without system resources getting pillaged is a massive win. 5/5

"Amazing , Clear , Super HD , Easy to setup"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This capture is the best. Easy to setup just install via disc (or if you dont have a dvd drive find one and extract the files to a usb and put it on there) Its super clear and awesome. Seriously buy this!!!

"100% worth it" Purchased on Mighty Ape

After owning for 3 months i can tell you;

1: its awesome 2: takes under 15 seconds to begin recording, this includes stop / start recording. 3: default setting 1 hour gameplay = 3.8 GB

most happy being able to capture the games and just sit back and watch, nothing better than seeing everything you missed at the time!
