    What are you talking about? That movie was a hilarious parody, and that gives it redeeming value right off the bat. The fact that it was ACCIDENTAL parody is irrelevant.I saw that one in theaters and laughed my ass off. ... I got a few dirty looks from the other folks in the theater, but it's their own fault for trying to take it seriously after the crew crashed into a motherloving diamond supergeode. Heck, after the space shuttle crash-landed six inches from a construction worker's unprotected butt and he didn't even notice. It's got a serious case of so bad it's good. I'm gonna go ahead and say it. The worst sci-fi movie is Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. Objectively, it's not even close to the worst movie ever. But subjectively, the broken promises, crushed expectations, and shattered dreams were more than enough to push it to the head of the line.

    "Darius Burst Second Prologue (iOS)" Mother-lovin' Squeenix...

    Burst Angel has a plot?I've watched like a third of it, and ... if there's a coherent plot, I'm not seeing it. I love the bait and switch, though. First episode acts like this school kid's the main character and sets the expectation the story will be told more or less from his perspective. Then he doesn't even SHOW UP for some episodes, and his role in most of the ones he DOES show up in barely above cameo status.

    Don't look at me. I'm not hte one buying these things. I just drool on the keyboard a little.

    Man, I'd still LOVE to have that Powermaster Prime(it comes with it's own core now instead of being an upgrade?). It'd be the toy I THOUGHT I was getting all those years ago. Man, PM Prime was such a disappointment. I think it hit about when I started wanting to do more than wave them over my head and make laser noises with my mouth. I can't justify the cost to fix the years of disappointment, though.

    In fact, they had orders not to initiate hostilities with any aliens they encountered.See: Booby Trap. It's also implied the Macross was going to go out and look FOR those aliens, leaving Earth in the hands of vessels without fold drives, like the ARMDs.

    Well, yes, it's an adjective. So is vicious. And a thin liquid wouldn't be very viscous at all. ... I apologize for turning this thread into English 101. An Earth so far removed from their own that a greeting they've had ten millenia to plan is bungled because they don't even know how to write japanese anymore. They are now aliens in their own homeland.Most depressing happy end ever.

    I've tried to ignore this, I really did. But...Vicious, not Viscous. One word means that someone is agressive, the other means that they are a thick, slow-flowing fluid.

    Hell to the yes. This totally needs to happen.

    It should if there's not a corresponding amount of comical female nudity!(Actually serious here, not just pushing for more nekkid womens.)

    "Don't see this movie!" Best advice I've yet seen from a trailer, though I'm afraid my sanity has already suffered permanent damage.

    Let's put it this way. I haven't watched any Power Rangers since the original(which I deemed as a "cheap Voltron knockoff", and damn the facts), but I'd watch at least an episode or two of Power Rangers: Geek Force just to see what was up.
  14. JB0
    Thsi is the best sentai show ever. Saban should totally do Power Rangers: Geek Force for the next iteration.

    Sega is the BEST publisher. Am I right, or am I right?

    I thought we established you were looking at a review for Assasin's Creed, not Armored Core. Revelations isn't an Armored Core subtitle. And who plays Armored Core for the plot? And For Answer was NOT Japan-exclusive. I own it, it's sitting on a shelf next to me. ... Still in the shrinkwrap. I've GOT to stop setting games down and forgetting about them.
  17. JB0
    I know at least one other person that does.No, not me. As far as old game roll call, I've been rockin' me some Crystalis lately.
  18. JB0
    Yeah. Armored Core V just came out, and it's a totally different beast. And that vid is priceless.

    We also already have games that are lost FOREVER because the servers have been shut down and they either used always-online copy-protection or are online-only games.The publishers do not have our best interests at heart. Once bound to internet-connectivity, a game has a finite, and possibly extremely short, lifespan. I can still play Combat, Mine Storm, or Parsec TODAY. One of these games was published by a company that simply no longer exists. One was from a company that changed hands roughly umpteen-bajillion times, most notably once to an owner that killed all video-game-related projects. One was from a company that simply hasn't been in the video game market as more than a parts supplier in almost thirty years. On the other end of the spectrum, Tabula Rasa was only playable by ANYONE for a little over a year. And this is ignoring that the game you love may not be the game you will own after the next patch rolls through. This used to be optional(on the console side, it wasn't even an OPTION), but if the game MUST be connected to a central server, it becomes mandatory. And at the same time, patches have become more and more likely to actually change your gameplay experience. If you're new to the game, you literally CAN'T see what the game was like before you started it. If you aren't new, well... I hope your memory is good, because we're counting on you to tell future generations what version 1.0 of World of Warcraft was like. Good or bad, it's become one of the most influential games of the last decade. Please don't let it become another Super Mario Brothers. We don't even know WHEN that came out, but it at least has the excuse of being released at a time when people were convinced video games were dead forever. This is the future. As someone with a strong interest in the history of video games, It is not something I'm happy about.

    THAT I could endorse.I think I've said before it sounds like a fun idea. I admit it'd never happen, but I'd like to see a story told from the eyes of a Destroid pilot. It'd be a very different take on the same story, and give the poor ground-pounders some much-needed street cred to boot.

    Sadly, I don't have a 1920*1200 version. In fact, the file I have is UPSCALED to fill that 1680*1050 display on the right.Nonetheless, I can upload the original 1500*980 copy I have, so you can do what you will with it with a minimum of loss.

    Am I alone in really really NOT wanting to see them using modern gadgets? I honestly LIKE anachronistic retro-future technology. It's an integral PART of science-fiction in general to me. Genuinely curious if that's just me.

    It does indeed suck.And I got it before the limited edition shipped, so no artbook for me.

    Except James Tiberius Kirk was the man. He could back his actions up with quality results, and wasn't afraid of advice. Bay is likable and very earnest, but he's got an ego an AU wide and no sense of quality writing or story pacing.

    Be honest here. This is just the first step in your scheme to convince Hollywood to do a Macross 7 movie.
