  1. Right, so let's just sell it in one place only, spend zero on advertising and then be surprised when it doesn't sell well........duh! Obviously, high IQs, or any knowledge or experience in marketing is not a requirement for working at Deagostini. Of course the bright spark who decided to make it mostly reprint material only a couple of years after the last run finished is also to blame. While it may have worked for Eva and Gunam, Macross is not those shows. Graham
  2. They should print all the planned new material in one book. I'd buy it for sure, and I bet 90% of people who collected Macross Chronicles would by it as well. This whole let's just print and sell a small quantity in Hiroshima to test the market, seems to be really badly thought out idea. And yes, even though it is the 30th anniversary, it is still too damn soon to reprint all the old material again! Graham
  3. Is their a digital copy that can be purchased anywhere? Graham
  4. Pet peeve with modern movies, why are drones shown flying way faster than they actual can? Just sat through the start of the Keanu Reeves remake movie, 'The Day The Earth Stood Still' and they had Predator or Reaper style drones flying at supersonic speed and then firing Sidewinders at a ground target.......LOL. Not the first movie I've seen that has drones flying way faster than they actually do. Graham
  5. It's supposed to be 20 of them. What a find! Graham
  6. So do any characters in the movie actually say "You sank my Battleship"? If not, it aint even worth a rental. Graham
  7. Correct, I don't even have a current generation console. My last console was a PS2 (which now mostly just sits gathering dust). In the 8 years since me son was born, I just don't have the time or energy for console games anymore. All my gaming these days is mobile gaming and occasionally PSP, while on the long commute to and from work. Graham
  8. Sky Crawlers is worth checking out. Very thought provoking, but a bit depressing (kinda like Jinroh in that way). Definitely worth watching at least twice, as you pick up more on the second viewing. Graham
  9. It means that graphically and gameplay-wise, it looks like an iPhone or Android game, not something you expect to see on a current gen console like the X-Box 360, where everything is pretty, pretty graphics and movie style cut scenes ala Mass Effect 3 etc. Simple is good, but i'ts not often you see something like this on consoles (not that I monitor the console scene too closely). These days, I'm only into casual gaming on smartphones, which is why when I saw the vid I thought it was a smartphone game. Graham
  10. The YF-23 is such a beautiful looking plane. Side by side the YF-22 looks really ugly IMO. The wrong plane definitely won. Graham
  11. Second thoughts, just rewatching Macross 7 for the 6th or is it 7th time and it is perfect, I would not remake it. Graham And let's not forget Sheryl in the school shower, staring at and complemently Nanase on her breasts Graham
  12. Yes, but Frontier did have Sheryl getting off in a locker with her vibrating phone and Alto Graham
  13. I only watched about 2 minutes of the video, but I really thought this was a smartphone game from the video. Really doesn't look like an X-box 360 game. Graham
  14. While I'd love to see the 1:1 VF-25F, I have absolutely no interest in seeing a Macross Musical or a Miss Macross contest. For those who are interested, good for you. Somebody wake me up when they announce a new Macross anime. Graham
  15. Android or iOS? Graham
  16. I think sales would have been far better if this was a sequel or continuation of Macross Chronicle, with 100% new material and not mostly reprint. Did they honestly think the majority of Macross fans who had already bought Chronicle, where going to shell out for a slighly improved version of the same thing all over again? Graham
  17. 'Tis a nice looking ship! Graham
  18. Finally broke down and bought one of them new-fangled Vortex disc guns. Bought the Vigilon pistol. Really impressed by the range and accuracy. Now thinking of getting the Praxis or Lumitron. Had a couple of battles against my son. He used the Vigilon and I used my Alpha Trooper. He hammered me everytime. Graham
  19. I've often thought it would be cool if all nations agreed to ban things like guided missiles, radar, jet engines and stealth to reducing spiralling defense procurement cost. Then I'd love to see with today's technology, how good of a prop driven fighter plane we could build, compared with the best WWII planes.eapons to be limited to machineguns, cannon, unguided rockets or unguided bombs. Graham
  20. I'm happy to handle any T&A that comes my way. Heck, at my age, you take what you can get! And Macross 7 rocks.........BOMBA! Graham
  21. I actually, quite like the Resident Evil movies (except for the last one, which was just plain silly). I've only ever played a couple of the Resident Evil games and don't really remember them that well, so it doesn't bother me that the movies don't follow the games. The Death Race remake and it's sequel are also a guilty pleasure of mine. As much as I'm a huge fan of the Roger Corman original and expected to hate the remake, it and the sequel were actually much better than I expected. Graham
  22. Milia was definitely much better looking in Macross 7! Graham
  23. Why the heck was he rocking the plane from side to side like that after taking off? If I was a passenger on board I would have been pretty scared then (I don't mind flying, but get a bit nervous during take off and landing). Graham
  24. Whether or not it's a good anime, is irrelevant for me, the whole cutsey idol group thing is just not my cup of tea. Gimme a serious 'real robot' war anime any day. Graham
