I had a Max 1J when I was little. The chest plate hinge bars broke 2 or 3 times before we quit gluing it back together and threw it out.

Is that something to be proud of? We know about half the people voting (41 of 84?) HATE M7. Does this mean the other half like M7? No. Somethin' like 20 people hate M2 more than M7 but it seems to me a large number of those people have hated both but dislike M2 more than M7. So, seems the numbers work out where the majority hates M7, a large number more are probably neutral, and a few people like it. That being said, different strokes for different folks. Wasn't my cup of tea.- It still disproves the common belief that everyone hates Macross 7 more than anything else. And some of those votes are from people that never SAW Mac7, or saw so little that it doesn't matter*, and have formed their opinions based on what others have said. *Some would argue that it doesn't matter if what little they saw turned them off totally. I'd say they are wrong. I can assemble a good argument that SDF Macross is steaming feces based on selected episodes. I'd be wrong, but I could do it.

Some people like it, most hate it. According to the poll, less than 50% hate it. Or at least, less than 50% hate it with the blinding fury of a thousand suns that makes all other hatreds trivial. A fulll 27% have no hatred for it. Anyways, like I said, Final Vegeta is "special".

I'll totally agree on the lack of a display unit thing. I've met people who weren't really interested, played with mine or someone else's, then went about trying to coming up with $250 to get their own. People need a chance to see and feel the PSP in person to see what makes it stand apart from previous handhelds. I've seen it. It's pretty. Haven't actually played it, though. The buttons look too close to the edge for my tastes. I think it'd be uncomfortable for extended gaming. I've seen this mentioned as a flaw in at least one hardware review, along with the battery life. But here's the thing... there's NOTHING I WANT FOR IT. Sum total of interest = 1 puzzle game. And I'm not paying 250$ to see if Lumines is worth playing.

lol basara or boxana in some bad dubs is rolling around in his valk with all this fighting we have. My reason I hate Mac7 is the storyline was too slow since it has a pretty large amount of characters they have to develope. If it was live action and not in space it would be a soap opera. As the Battle7 turns, Mylene must choose to love the person who doesn't know she exist or the man her dominating mother has shoved into her face. Will gubaba find out he has legs and arms? And will exodor discover true love being the only full sized zentran on the fleet. *cackles*

Well, you didn't ask me this. . . but the guy's post is deserving of some heavy ridicule. . . or maybe it just deserved to be ignored. I can't decide. If I follow it correctly (and who's to know!). . . it goes something like: Those who hate M7 are engaging in propoganda. The Nazis engaged in propoganda. Here's some quotes from Hitler. The US engages in propoganda and everything it has ever stood against has been a figment of its psychotic populations' imaginations. There is a lot of inequality in the world. The US is a bunch of Nazis. M7 is like the "Real World." Brainwash. Now. . . even if we open our minds very wide and accept that this sorta stuff can be posted here. . . it's still utter BS. We've got a Marxist on our hands who just read Mein Kampf and now thinks everything he sees bears some relation to it and his worldview. H See I don't even read that guy's posts. But yeah, I can't decide... Is his head filled with human feces or dog feces? I am now agreeing with AgentONE. In a Macross 7 thread. The world has now ended.

I wouldn't say that. It just sounds to me like he's been enveloped in a lot of Left-wing rhetoric. To paraphrase one of our former Presidents: "It's not that he's stupid. It's that he knows a lot of things that just aren't so." H I'm not talking solely about his spouting of random conspiracy theories. Even when he's NOT making a ny vaguely political comments he's an idiot.

Ok, that was the most f'd up defense of Macross 7 I've ever read in my life. And people say I come up with weird defenses for the Spartas..... He's really not a very sharp guy. Better off ignoring him. Final Vegeta and Lowviz lurker are the most difficult people to understand on this board. Final Vegeta's not hard to understand. He's just everything one expects from someone with a DBZ screenname(read: stupid).

There was SOME selectiveness, though. Max and Kakizaki both tested well. It just turned out that only one of them was good in a real fight. Kakizaki may've been shaping up to be a decent pilot, but the barrier overload killed him. Not really his fault. To make matters worse, the VF-1 wasn't exactly a great space fighter anyways. It was our first try, and we made a lot of mistakes. Hence the FAST packs. More thrust, more reaction mass, more verniers.

*nods* I went in with the understanding that it was a very "love it or hate it" thing, based on what a few... vocal... people here have to say, as well as reviews scattered about the internet. Random thought... the Valk faces are very Gundam. And more Max and Millia is ALWAYS a good thing. They need to remake the original series, but focus on Max and Millia instead. Added bonus to more Millia: more QRaus. But... he got Millia's VF-1J blown up. I'm pretty sure that's a sin.

I have a question... Why is this concept so hard for people to grasp?

I don't like the existing OVA encode. Way too dark. Millard is black, not invisible.

My sister calls all mechs "Gundams." Even valks. Score tied, 1-1.

I don't hate either, so I voted neither. But I am apathetic towards Macross 2, as opposed to actually LIKING Mac7.

Yah. And I think someone said they can keep selling tehir stuff during appeal. Right. Because god forbid someone try to enforce their patents...

Nice, yes. Realistic, no. If they wanted to do it right, they'd've done it the first time.

It didn't hurt that we were up against what we were pretty sure was battleships, even before we knew what the zentradi were. It's a lot easier to justify the annihilation of a military vessel than a city full of civilians(or even just a small portion of a city full of civilians). Also note we fired nukes at the Zentradi in the opening moments of the attack, before the Macross was off the ground. Zentradi moved in, ARMDs fired nukes. Logic likely being "can't pollute space, and there's no tree-hugging hippies up here to complain even if you could." Only gotta worry about the politics when the people it offends know it happened.

I can hardly stand it either... *barfs*

Yes, Immersion is a big company. That's how they could afford to sue Sony and win in the first place.

I HOPE it's a new series!

Or worse, sony could be forced to stop selling PS2's. That's a solution Sony doesn't want. And Immersion is likely not going to turn down a large license check.

Yeah, I've finished it that way as well. And that applies to most protect missions. I remember one where you had to protect a truck and only pods went after it. There was a point where the the truck was just sitting in front of a power armour, which was apparently oblivious to it. *grins*

Actually, no one's built one since the 70s. Every time it's talked about, the anti-nuclear activists file lawsuits. It fast becomes prohibitively expensive, thus keeping us dependent upon coal, oil, and gas(trivia fact: coal power plants release more radioactive particles into the atmosphere than nuclear plants). And we've got a few valid solutions for disposing of waste. Deleted uranium? Surely you mean depleted uranium. And depleted uranium isn't a waste product. It's the non-radioactive isotope of uranium, which is totally useless in a reactor as well as quite harmless to people(save the usual heavy metal toxicity problems). It's used as a projectile because it's really heavy, which gives it a lot of momenteum, which gives it a lot of energy when it hits something. I THINK you're confusing DU with plutonium, the primary byproduct of uranium fission. Which is a lot like gasoline. Did you know that your premium unleaded was once considered a useless byproduct of kerosene manufacture? Plutonium can run reactors just as well as uranium, it just requires a diffrent design. But since no one's building reactors, there's nothing available to use it. fast breeder reactor but since nobody wants to build one its stays in paper Fast breeder reactor Thanks. Informative, and clears up a few minsconceptions I had. ... I hadn't realized that the byproducts of plutonium fission were so much shorter-lived.
