  1. Should I point out that the Metal Gear series isn't platformers? I hadn't heard that. Shows how much attention I pay to gaming news these days. Yah, I've got both ROM images and BlueMSX. Got a decent gamepad too. It's just a bit more cumbersome than I'm used to. Having to whack both action buttons at once to crouch, then let go and reach for the keyboard to change items or answer the transciever is annoying.
  2. His license plate has been stolen A reward ( Transformers toys ) is offered to anyone who catch the thief or bring the objct back. 310980[/snapback] Pfft, screw that. Maybe if he'd offered me one of those big-ass laser guns, but TOYS? No thanks.
  3. *considers* Yah, the Mk.2 was a bit too rounded,d espite my naming it of favorite. But Solid Snake had such an awesome intro sequence(for the time, anyways). 310884[/snapback] Oh yes To this day that is one of my favorite game openings (the tune is kinda cool too) 310965[/snapback] Yah. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Pft, who needs sample playback?

    I usually hit PlanetEmu for my "1337 W4r3z RAWMZ"
  5. Sigh... I SO want this to not suck. And have SO litle hope of it doing anything else. At least they dragged a REAL tractor out for their display instead of some angular monstrosity.
  6. Well, I guess those few news stories I had seen were wrong then. I'm sure that in one form or another AnimEigo is still going to get credit for the restoration, and I do not see any way for ADV to avoid this. And I'm pretty sure that HG may have purchased the copyright from AnimEigo to use their subtitles. It would be strange to see two different subbed versions out there. But that is my opinion and it is always open for discussion. 310943[/snapback] If the coyright rolled to HG on termination of contract, there's nothing Animeigo can do about it. We already know they're getting crap for the remaster, and a "special thanks" note for the liners.
  7. *cackles* Perfect image, perfect sound, TOTALLY fartED UP subs. The wish power are together with you. (well, as perfect as they can {or choose to} get),
  8. *considers* Yah, the Mk.2 was a bit too rounded,d espite my naming it of favorite. But Solid Snake had such an awesome intro sequence(for the time, anyways).
  9. Maybe HG will get another stick up its butt and decide it doesn't need to pay the new company any money, because it "owns" Macross, thereby resulting in breach of contract and termination of license. ... Not likely, but one can hope...
  10. *cackles* Had this passed to me a little while back, but the board was down. And hey, it's always good to see again.
  11. I say if you're gonna legislate one entertainment medium, do 'em all. TV, movies, DVDs, et cetera. Then we can be like Australia or Great Britain, where the government censors (and in some cases bans) our entertainment before we ever get to see it.
  12. I liked the original 2 mechs personally. Especially the Mk. 2.
  13. Waitwait... Animeigo started off dubbing games?
  14. Maybe next time...
  15. Indeed it is. Leaving unused portions in is a common practice, dating back to the early days of gaming, when it was easier to leave it in than it was to change all the addresses in the code(assembly is a pain in the butt).
  16. Dubbing is an extravagant expense if you're a small company like AnimEigo. They have limited finances, and it usually doesn't make sense for them to dub things because their primary audience is hardcore otaku. Well, the majority of their products are dubbed(just ran through the drop-down list on their site because I've got too much time on my hands). You still make a good point. They're smaller than some other companies, and DID spend a large sum of cash on the remaster. They may've already used the "dub fund" on the remaster.
  17. True. Very true.
  18. Sure it does. 'S why Skull One didn't explode when Focker got shot. 310500[/snapback] , Good one wolfx. BTW, nice to hear from you, azrael. Its nice to be back in the forums!!!!!!! 310597[/snapback] Not to nitpick or anything, but that was actually my reply to wolfx's comment that a higher rank didn't give you more HP.
  19. Speak for yourself. Men don't touch my ass.
  20. Hence why Focker bit it later, while Hikaru and Max survived through teh war. Sure it does. 'S why Skull One didn't explode when Focker got shot.
  21. Thought it was an uncut, director's cut, extended edition, etc. that they said was out of the question. ... Not that it matters, they still did it.
  22. Harmony Gold has stated that AnimEigo will be credited with the subtitling and remastering job, and the original liner notes which appeared with the originals will be included with the ADV release. This is going to be funny, as ADV's competitor may be included on their packaging. 310490[/snapback] Oh, good. I'm quite pleased to be proven wrong.
  23. They will once the consumers start buying the massively cheaper Revolution(I believe Nintendo's explicitly stated that they're shooting for a lower price point than the competition again). It won't hurt TOO bad, as MS and Sony both have massive profits from other parts of their empire they can subsidize the game consoles with(and MS has through the entire current generation). And before the fanboys start rambling about how no one'll buy a Revolution REGARDLESS of price... Please note that Sony and MS followed every one of the GameCube's price cuts with one of their own, because undercutting the competition by a full hundred dollars DOES affect what people choose.
  24. I was hoping it would not return... 310451[/snapback] True. But on the upside, this thread is something besides the spewing of inane fanboy crap and bragging about degrees to anyone that argues.
  25. I only remembered the first part. 310437[/snapback] Between the fact that ADV didn't dub MOSPEADA or Southern Cross, and the fact that dubbing is a routine practice as opposed to an extravagant expense, I'm inclined to believe 1 was only mentioned so it didn't look like they were saying "Don't blame us, we WANTED to do it right..." It's generally a bad idea to look like you're badmouthing your employer/licensor. Even when you are.
