  1. There's an optional TV hook-up, though you can only game with the component cable version.
  2. An epic moment that wouldn't have been possible without Basara.
  3. Such as Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. Very Lunar/Grandia 1-ey.
  4. Ratchet & clank, check it out. Also, the PS3 will play Japanese PS3 games.
  5. I'll agree with one point though. I miss anime character designs in games. Stupid chunky roided up SSFIV:AE characters!
  6. Except that "is" the original version, the shorter edit was done the U.S. theatrical release. The dub is a bit jarring regardless.
  7. Enough of this foolish Maia Sterling talk. Sheryl FTW! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU9xYBJ64sE&feature=related
  8. Sounds like what you actually want is a Wii and a trip to their virtual console store.
  9. It's contract time again, Fox always screws with the simpsons cast during contract time.
  10. Just be aware that it's the same DYRL boot that's been around for years, now with the HK english dub included as an audio option.
  11. Dude, Basara flew into a freakin' volcano despite Protoculture distortion fields disrupting avionics to find Sivil, he flew into the orbit of a sun to save al the citizens of city 7, he flew into Gepelnitch to save the whole galaxy, etc. Bottom line, if Basara did eveything he did with a gunpod full of death, we wouldn't be having this discussion.
  12. Ratchet & Clank, Uncharted, Batman Arkham Asylum, SSFIV:AE, Bayonetta, Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3, SW The Force Unleashed, Katamari, and as mentioned Valkyrie Chronicles. There are "many" games to choose from.
  13. No, no they don't. The problem with that is that there's enough of the Red Noah plot mixed in that they are necessary. Instead, I'd reccomend skipping the Africa episodes, as those are equal parts useless and borderline racist, the musical episode however is still fun.
  14. Sheryl crushes your badly drawn fake titied whore!
  15. So if I have your theory correct, then:
  16. We know that the U.N. Spacy discovered the Vajra in 2040, and we know that Mao & Grace were studying the Vajra for long enough to publish studies on them in 2047. It's not improbable to concieve that some of Chiba's research "may" have been influence by Vajra study, though it could be the opposite with Chiba's research opening up the possability of Vajra study. Regardless, since we know the Protoculture based their technology around the Vajra, and that human/Protocultur tech is fully compatble with the Vajra tha the bases of how they work are similar. It's nothing so ambiguous as libido power or spiral energy. And we do know that Basara's control scheme is based in an alteration of a standard control scheme. It's close enough for Mylene to pick it up with her knowledge of valkyrie cockpits. It's not so ridiculous. Most of the technology we have now is a mechanical representation of things that occur in nature, the only way we have of recreating things. The theory is that technology has to inevitably evolve back to a biological state as it becomes more advanced. For example, a computer is a rudamentary recreation of a brain. Eventuallly design will demand that computers will become more brain like as the technology advances.
  17. Spiritia is based in the concept of wave motion. All living things produce energy, different types of energy have different attributes. Anima spirtia has the virtue of being a perpetual form that not only renews itself, but renews energy in other beings it touches. The EVIL series are biological representations of the mechanical technology that the Protoculture already engineered. We now know that said technology was based on a naturally occuring biological manifestation, i.e. the Vajra. Fold technology, barrier shields, and reaction cannons were all biologically recreated in the EVIL series, and later on a mass-producton scale with whatever the AFOS was. This isn't a concept exclusive to Macross, other sci-fi & anime has touched on bio-mecha for years, both before and after. Take a look at Farscape, a fairly popular sci-fi series, and one which was based highly in bio-technology. The Vorlons & Shadows in Babylon 5 being the higher species of that universe also used bio-technology. Even the recent BSG adopted the concept that bio beats mechanical in the technological hierarchy. What the Sound Energy Converter/boosters do is convert that bio-energy for mechanical use and amplify it into the beams shown. We also know now that this ability was likely based in Vajra technology as the Vajra have a working bio-internet that's fully compatable with protoculture/human based mechanical counterparts. Hell, we even see this in Macross Plus with the BDI/BCS interface both used for the YF-21 & connection Myung with Sharon. Coincidence that ti required a bio-neural chip to make Sharon self aware? Cry space monsters & magic all you want, but the fictional tech base is there, deal with it. Also, super robot shows are distinguished by bright colored robots, they're distinguished by hot-blood completely replacing pilot skill, and of course ywlling out attacks replacing any need to control a robot. This is not true for Macross 7, as even the guitar controls are just an alternate interface for a standard flight control scheme, and still require piloting skill to use.
  18. Fushigi no Umi Nadia / Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water Anno's first full TV series. It's basically prototype Evangelion done with a Jules Verne 20,000 League's Under The Sea theme .Your reaction to the Anno-isms in Gunbuster in relation to Eva were my tip that you hadn't seen it. It's the next step in his story evolution after Gunbuster, and really, you "must" see it. There are a handful of crap episodes mixed in due to Anno leaving after the network forced a lengthening of the series, but the beginning, most of the middle, and the end are all epic. As fir Diebuster, that's pretty much in line with the new post FLCL order of Gainax, and the the major lineage step inbetween the older works & Gurren Lagann. Also very much worth seeing.
  19. Note: Throwing around the term "magic" isn't going to boost your argument any. Everything in 7 has the same technological Protoculture (and now Vajra)/Overtech base that the rest of the series have.
  20. OMG, you haven't seen Nadia have you?
  21. And that is why you fail
  22. Because the Timecop tv series was such a hit....
  23. What did they bring back with them? What spread unrest through out Britai's fleet? He came back with stronger resolve, and more hot-blood. Max gave up and decided to throw reaction missiles, then had them thrown right back in his face. Basara to the rescue!!
  24. October 20th in Japan.
