  1. I just finished watching the entire series in one sitting. I love the opening...the art...the song ("Lilium")! A very 'adult' anime.... The first few episodes were great; then a little before half way through the series the dialogue got worse (in a couple episodes); then the last several episodes were great once again. The anime is very colorful too.... Overall, I really liked it. My two cents.
  2. So Nov 2006 and newer models should have the smaller CPU? I have a 360 as well, but I think it was made before then. There have been a few instances where my 360 would freeze...but that's only been in a few demos that I've played...probably because of over heating (no problem with GoW though). I probably do have the older/bigger chip. Other than that though I haven't had any real problems with mine. With the way things are looking now with the PS3, I don't think I'll be getting one for at least 3 to 5 years...if I do ever get one. There will have to be some 'must buy' game (like Halo 3 on the 360) on the PS3 if I were to buy one.
  3. Sure it's a bit of a stretch, but it works. Unless you'd define espionage as something else....like an art? The art of spying....the science of spying....whatever. It is a bit of a stretch, but I thought it was worthy enough to be discussed on this forum. Those of you haven't seen the movie are missing out. Not that you'd care, but I don't think I'll ever take you or any of your posts seriously again.... I'll probably just skip your posts...not that you'd care. There's no sense in you replying to this thread or my response if you have nothing of worth to add...unless you don't care to waste your time and mine. (I love the ignore feature) Thanks.
  4. I can't seem to figure out who's responsible for that. There's one other thing that I can't figure out, and that's how Matt's character figured out something...I dunno if it was the result of what that KGB guy said and did or what. I'd be more specific but I don't want to spoil anything for those that haven't seen it yet. There were so many famous people in the movie, all preformed great. This is definitely one of my favs. I liked some of the word play they had in there too. It's a smart movie. I didn't know Robert De Niro could direct...but I liked every minute of it. It was money well spent at the box office imo...probably one of the best movies of 2006.
  5. Honestly (even though I love and prefer the lyrical songs in Macross over Robotech), I don't think "To Be In Love" is that bad of a song. I dunno if that's because I loved Robotech when I was but a kid or what...but I don't think it's that bad. It is, however, the only song I like by Reba West. As far as the other music goes in Robotech. There are 5 or so BGM titles in Robotech that I really, really like. Like "Broken Heart," "Reconstruction Blues," "Catastrophe," "Main Theme (Robotech OP song)" to name a few.
  6. Some of you need more sarcasm in your posts, I don't think there was enough. I guess some of you don't call espionage a 'science.' Science in the broadest sense refers to any system of objective knowledge. Espionage is a practice of obtaining information. I digress though.... Delete this thread or do what you will with it for I doubt there will be any serious responses with this lot.
  7. I just saw it tonight and I must say I'm impressed. It's one of the best movies I've seen from 2006. Anyone else seen this movie? Thoughts/opinions?
  8. Oh! That I did not know. Never mind what I said then....
  9. If it's a built-in NIC on the mobo and your computer doesn't see the NIC, you may want to check the BIOS settings. You may also want to update the chipset drivers on your mobo. If neither of those work, then it's probably 'hosed' and I don't think you can do anything about it since it's built into the mobo.... You're only alternative would be to buy another NIC that'll fit into your PCI slots or go back to wireless. Edit: Hiriyu beat me to it. (I must type too slow.)
  10. Even with the G.I. Joe sounds and 'laser sounding' gunpods? ...And we're talking about the Macross Saga of Robotech, not the rest of the 50 or so episodes after the Macross Saga in Robotech (I could care less for the rest).
  11. I hope there will be a Macross game made for the PS3, just like the one for the PS2. I've always been wanting to play the Macross game on the PS2, but I don't think I'd be able to mod anything properly. Do Japanese PS2s display on the NTSC system? If they'll display on NTSC, I just might have to track a Japanese PS2 and find myself a copy of that game. However, if there is a Macross game made for the PS3, I won't have to worry about getting a Japanese PS2 then will I?
  12. Thanks Keith. I may as well stick with my Manga VHS tape then. I don't believe I have a region free player. :cry: Maybe my 360 would play a R2 DVD? I'll have to look into that. Edit: I just checked the XBox site...so much for that idea.
  13. I've been ignoring this thread for some time...just finished reading through it all. Like many of you here, I bought my set directly from AnimEigo. However, after reading all of your guys' posts...I just bought the $40 repackaged AnimEigo set from Robotech.com. This set I won't be opening. That aside, I was actually interested in seeing the dubbed version of Macross...that is till I read your guys' posts. I may as well just buy the rest of the Robotech: Macross Saga DVDs if I'm that in need of watching a dubbed release. On a side not...going off topic here. Is the Macross Plus: Movie Edition from Manga worth the $30? I live in the States and I'm not too sure what other versions I could get that may or may not be better than that Manga version. (I know I've asked this before and my question was answered once before, but I'm pretty sure that was on the old message board.)
  14. Did you guys know that those working on the atom bomb back in the day had to live in a city isolated from the rest of the world? No one could get in or out. There were some government employees working there who didn't know what they were doing...except for making sure the needle on the gauge stayed w/in certain limits. If that needle were to move out of the limits they had to turn a knob one way or the other. ...Anyway...I could definitely see a city surrounding the Macross.
  15. Thanks!
  16. If I were to get a second tattoo it'd be of that image. I'd just have to find a larger image of that.
  17. ROFL! If there's one thing I AM sure of, it's me getting a tattoo of the kite...just not which rendition of the kite I guess I should have mentioned that I'm indecisive when it comes to the little things...like "do I want to eat at Burger King or Carls Jr?" and "do I want to watch Macross TV or Macross DYRL?" Either way I'll be eating a burger and watching Macross.
  18. As others have said, nice work! I'm liking the site...and ironically enough...reading all the profiles and such for the mecha has me wanting to watch some Macross right now. I'll have to wait till next week unfortunately to do some watching. I dunno if you want to explain what GERWALK and FAST stand for in your profiles or not.... I guess that'd depend on your targeted audience. Other than that, awesome work. I'm looking forward to seeing more (even some Macross II!!! ).
  19. Thanks Hurin! I still need to get a copy of DYRL? on DVD btw.... My head is spinning.... I guess it's going to boil down to which one is more liked by others...which one others think is more 'true'...which one I like the most.... I'm quite the indecisive type too. Why couldn't there just be ONE consistent rendition? :cries: (I removed the images in my reply to save bandwidth/memory or whatever)
  20. My mistake! Sorry! I somehow missed the keyword "Movie"...don't ask me how either. ...I also forgot to thank you for posting the image. Thank you!
  21. You make a great point. I can't recall what the U.N. Spacy insignia looks like though in DYRL?. ...Is the one Mr March posted the one from DYRL?
  22. How much does the HD box set cost and is it only on BluRay?
  23. Would you mind posting it, please?
  24. Awesome! Thank you for the image! You know it didn't occur to me, until your post, to try and replace "Macross" with "Robotech" as a keyword in my searches. Surprisingly enough I got quite a few 'good' results. You'd think "Macross" would have gotten better results...I thought so at least. After looking at quite a few of them, the rendition you use seems to be the more "true" looking rendition. These are the images I found [numbered (plus Hurin's)]: Hurins: 1 2 3 4 5 6 With 5 I was thinking of photoshopping it to get rid of "Macross Saga" if I were to use the image. I'm not sure which of these is the 'most accurate/true' rendition. 2 and 4 look wider at the bottom; 2 and 5 have the 'same colored' stripe down the middle (background color that is). What do you all think? Thanks again.
  25. I'll be sure to post pictures as soon as I get it done and it's all healed. I just need to find an image now. It could be a long while, I just have the DVDs at home...so I don't have much to work with.
