That's not lack of believability, thats personal dislike with just as personal a skew being placed on the events. There is nothing more "unbelievable" in Macross 7 than there is in any other Macross series, let alone most anime series, let alone most sci-fi.

What's wrong with unlocking/adding features via firmware update?

Ok Lucy, 'splain how the BDI/BCS connects with the brain to allow you to control a machine with your mind as if it were a natural appendage? Also 'splain how monitoring the levels of chemicals in the brain translates into altering peoples moods through visual stimuli, and eventually hypnotizing them into doing your bidding. And for that matter, again Myung being able to control Sharon through a man/machine interface. If you can explain that while at the same time being able to dismiss the ability of using machines to transmit/amplify brainwaves, then and only then can you claim M7 is magic.

I think it should be pretty clear to everyone now that HG is simply counting on the Mayan prediciton of the world ending this year to get them out of trying to produce original product.

And in fact, much of what happens in Plus is parallel with what happens in 7. Sharon has a super processor that can monitor the brain activity of a whole audience, and adjust her hypnotic stimuli accordingly. Her interface with Myung is assumedly also based off of the Q-Rau's pilot interface (just as the YF-21 was), the difference being she has an A.I. that can itnerfere right back with the audience. Spiritia, BDI, etc, all different terms to get at the same general point. Technology & biology are based on the same things, and Basara uses the song energy booster as a wifi-hub to broadcast his feelings to others. People need to get over it! This very topic has been considered "hard sci-fi" forever. 2001 Had the monolith that instantaniously transported David Bowman who the F%ck know's where, & downloaded his conciousness into a new energy based being. Forbidden Planet had a similar device that translated thoughts into energy based entities. Star Trek has had more uber gods than I can remember, some Greek god based, Q being the worst. Hell, even the robo-zombies connected their brains wirelessly to each other, with the queen traversing huge expansense of space to be put into new bodies (wait a minute, did Moore create the borg too?). Hell, have you watched Votoms? You don't get much more gritty & hardcore than that in anime, and even that has super-science/suedo magic in it. Starship Troopers? Hive minded bugs that use bio-technology? Hello? Just about every sci-fi writter eventually comes to the same conclusion, the most advanced forms of technology would have to be based in biology, if for no other reason than being able to self maintain and not having to worry about wearing out/replacing parts.

You must cease & decist immediately, as this is a 100% original Steve Yune design that was made for Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles. Failure to do so will result in HG staff coming to your house and grabbing your wood!!

From how I understand it, you can only have 1 account active on each system period, regardless of the region. To switch accounts you have to reset the system to factory settings. The same goes for memory cards apparently, and the current work arounds are: -Have multiple memory cards, one for each account, pop out card & reset the system, then pop in that accounts card. -Have one card and do a backup of the account profile onto your PC, format system & card then re-install whichever profile backup you'd like to use. This is pretty obnoxious in general, but at least it's not locked for physical copies of games. I just hope they change their mind later & allow account switching on the fly like with the ps3.

There's your problem right there (the quoted name should be "Keith" btw), you mention Star Trek as hard sci-fi when ST is incredibly guilty of regularly throwing in "magic" with no attempt to quantify it scientifically. When you account for the "many" magic god aliens in ST from the original series to curent, Macross 7 winds up being much more "hard sci-fi" than Star Trek ever was.

I'm honestly not sure how long it takes them to render models for the PS3/Vita, as there is a "lot" more detail (as shown by the PS3 demo's). The Vita is region free for actual game cards, but it's region locked for PSN network accounts/DLC. What this basically means, is hopefully there won't be any DLC on these games...

Shadow Chronicles discontinued? YES! That means in 5 years we'll have the uber director's cut as released by some off the wall distributer that has a new documentary on how the Yune's are pioneering the future of robotech. Even though it will only talk about how to set up a power point presentaiton...

SOMEONE CALL THE HG POLICE!!

What are you talking about? Both Eva & Rahxephon have only been done 2 times each. Eva TV + EoE (first & Eva rebuilt (second), Rahxephon TV (first) clipped down movie with slightly different plot (second). And don't get me wrong, while Rahxephon is by no means "bad", it's clearly an Eva clone with a "what if Shinji & Misato got together" scenario. Eva on the other hand is full of 100% mostly original (aside from the Nadia & Ideon influences) awesomeness, especially the Rebuild movies.

Has anyone considered making a fan made Macross Game?
Keith replied to leading edge's topic in Games
Pretty sure this board is only for actual Macross games that exist discussion. -

Another vote for the HHGTTG movie. Good cast, nice take on the story, and really, not every version needs to bad end. -

But if they were really doing it for a tax write-off you'd think they'd team up with that studio that put out "The Terminators" & "Transmorphers" to do their LA movie series

It should be put out in 3 sets, so chances are good we'll get it all.
