I'm sorry, I didnt mean to come off as holier than thou FN fanatic...but it just seems the mentality is that if the round doesnt start with .4 and end with 5 then you are some kind of wussy. Yes, I know for stopping power, you cant beat a .357 or a .40 or the ultimate and venerable .45 ACP. I owned 2 Glock 21's in my life and loved them to death....but as far as stopping power....I dont think anyone is going to keep going after I shoot them with a 5.7 and if the first one doesnt stop them, well I have 20 of its brothers in the mag(Five Seven Pistol) or 49 of its brothers(PS90 with 50 rd mag). But ultimately it comes down to personal preference and what you are willing to trust your life with... So again, I am not trying to argue or anything...people have different opinions and they are going to keep those opinions. I guess I was just gut reacting to what I thought was going to turn into another bashing the Five Seven and PS90 because it shoots a .22 round argument. JsArclight, I respect your opinion and I know that you are very knowledgable about the round and that you have fired the PS90/P90, so dont think that I am trying to show you disrespect in anyway. Twich

Have you fired a Five Seven or a P90 Graham? I dont mean to be flippant, but that seems to be a pretty common misconception with people who have never fired the weapon. I own a Five Seven, and I traded in a Glock 21 with 13 rd Mags for it, and I think that it was the wisest decision for me to make. Granted that ammo is not as plentiful as say 9mm, but the round beats out a .22 in all regards...But I guess it is a personal preference and to each his own.... Not trying to start a fight, but it just gets tiresome when I hear that same thing over and over again..... FN wesite that has a nice FQ with the ballistics of the 5.7mm round in all its incarnations A personally owned Five Seven/PS90 website for owners of those weapons-good info source Twich

Scored average grunt 65% Twich

The PS90 that you have pictured up there is an awesome weapon...for a personal defense weapon, I dont think it can be beat( in my opinion) I mean you have the capability of 50 rd mag, you have ambidextrous controls and you have a light compact weapon which comes with non magnifying optics included in the package...plus so many people are making accessories for the PS90 like quad rails that mount over the barrel, and optic mounts that I think this weapon will turn out to be quite popular... The only thing standing in the way is the numbers...FN has something like 16000 purchase orders for the PS90 that they intend to fill by the end of the year....so getting one now might be a bit rough, but if you do I think you will be happy. Now all we need is for wolf to start making some ammo by the truck load and this will turn very popular indeed! Sorry for the Fn rant... Twich

So, just a quick question...where does the art on the front page come from...A model box art, or is it this book...can someone make abigger scan of it if it is the book, that is really a nice picture and it is too bad it is soo small. Thanks Twich

I belong on Moya Twich

Wow, I am very impressed with the VF-0S so far...I hope this get popular so we get all kinds of Macros Zero Valks Twich

can we see some more Macross Zero ones? Maybe some clean screen shots of the Anime done up? Maybe a clean version of the VF-0S and VF-0D...I am sure that you can get the images on this site, in this section even! I just put the three that you did on my PSP while using my PSP to browse and they look great, although the Macross Zero one is kinda "busy" for lack of a better term, but they all looked great! Please, keep up the good work! Twich

Very Good episode, but what happened to the stuff with Lee Adama, they just sort of glossed it over...maybe next weeks episode will explain things better. Twich

Sorry to see you go Kevin, you have always been a good online retailer and I have always been happy with my dealing with you. Good luck with your future endeavours. Twich

Yeah, I thought that seemed a little bit out of character for her. And the whole thing with Lee at the end...I wonder what that is going to mean. Twich

I have this book, and I am moving, so I would like to sell it...what is it worth...I can remember paying a good chunk of change for it when it came out from Hobby Link Japan... Any info would be appreciated. Twich

Ahhh Dungeons and Dragons....that really brings back some memories...Neverwinter Nights 2 is going to be coming out soon along with Dungeons and Dragons Online: Stormreach Twich

Wow, those numbers for the HVD are quite impressive. I wonder what will actually make it in consumers hands and what will become in common use as a replacement for DVD's. Twich

Okay, let me ask this.....Does the F-22 have the same sort of thrust:weight ratio that the F-15 has? Meaning can it accelerate while climbing straight up like the f-15 is supposed to be able to do? I know that the f-22 can supercruise, but can the F-35 do the same since it is smaller, but has the same engine as the f-22. Also, what is the weapon load of the F-35? does it have the same internal bays that the F-22 has? Why does the F-35 have a 27mm Mauser cannon internally mounted? Is that some sort of concession to Germany to try to get them to buy into the JSF? For the marine role as a replacement for the Harrier, do they intend to mount gunpods on the undercarriage like they did to the Harrier to give it better ground support capability? Twich

I see that I was mis/un-informed on the subject, sorry to interrupt the discussion. I thought that the trend of the thread was that people didnt like the F-22 because it wasnt as good as the F-15, but I guess I misread the "gist" of the thread. Twich

Iam curious as to why people dont seem to like the F-35? I agree that the F-22 is a poor replacement for the F-15, but I guess that is not something we can change right now, but would it not be better to have 1 jet that has multiple roles with similar parts to another jet in the inventory? While I dont like the concept of a single engine jet, the "jump jet" role seems really neat for the Marine Version of the F-35. Twich

Did not know the latest came out, but have really enjoyed the previous books...will have to check it out. Twich

Actually, I have about 15 movies for the PSP, I think it is a nice format to watch these movies and I like the quality...the only complaint that I have is the earbuds, they suck and hurt my ears, but other than that...awesome. Twich

I think that if it is a launch PSP, then it is preset at 1.0....you have to download the firmware updates, so I guess that if they are launch PSP's, then you are all set. Twich

Yes it is, he is a Colonel.... Twich

So, what games are people looking forward to? I am looking forward to Legend of Heroes and Ghost in the Shell...anyone have any info on either of these games? Twich

I think that I might wait and see what Sony brings to the table before I jump into the Next Gen consoles...besides, I have a PSP that I see is getting more and more interesting games coming out all the time.....Also, I want to see what Nintendo does with its system. Twich

I went to go see this movie with a friend of mine that had never seen the series and we both loved the movie...I had to explain who the characters were and why they were together, but this thing was a great Sci-Fi movie....I liked it also because it was gritty, things were not always in order and it didnt make space seem like a shiny-happy place....while I love Star Wars and Star Trek, they are too clean sometimes for their own good. I like how Kaylee looks without that extra 20lbs that she had to have for the series, I was sorry to see Book and Wash go.....but it was nice to see that everyone got hurt in one way or another from that final battle with the reavers. I will go and see it again to get all the dialogue and to take it all in... Twich

The VF-0S looks awesome...gosh I cant wait until this toy comes out! Twich
