From a real-world standpoint, it's because unpiloted mechs are lame unless you're watching Transformers. From an anime-world standpoint... would YOU invest in more AI after the Sharon Apple incident? My question was just ajoke, i'm just impressed how much the avarage UN pilots sucks. Train them better. Oh. I thought it was a commentary on how real-world jets are exceeding the forces a human pilot can take without passing out, much less Macross-universe stuff like the YF-21.

Exactly... Some friends of mine dragged me to see that, and it was probably one of the absolute worst movies I have ever seen. I envy you. The worst movies I've ever seen are so bad that I refuse to name them for fear it might make me remember them.

That explains SO much.

I say give him some lawn darts and let darwinism take over See, I don't think that'll work. I was channel surfing awhile back, and I saw this video show. On the video show, some guy got his quad up onto the roof of his two story house (how is a mystery), then tried to jump the quad off the roof and into the pool, which was several feet away from the roof. Well... he didn't make the pool. But after a trip to the hospital, they had him back on his feet in a few days. Face it... health care in the US is just too good. The idiots are surving natural selection's attempts to do away with them. True. On the upside, we also survive all sorts of inherited problems like asthma(yes, severe asthma IS life-threatening) and epillepsy.

You will only notice the entire "Glowing head" feature on Rick's and Roy's heads (white plastic). I've seen photos of it happening on a Millia. Not that cameras capture the world as a human would see them, but it might depend on the individual toy owner.

*cackles maniacally* You are evil incarnate. But that's what they get for molesting their english teachers. Tangentally, Moeko's Owl is NOT funny. But likely the best one up there.

I thought the Mac2 game was kinda weak. The timer was an un-needed feature and detracts heavily from the game. It was a pain in the ass, but it made sure you couldn't progress in the game by simply throwing in credits. Actually enforced that the player had soem sort of skill. Still though, hard as hell. But fun. And it beats continue points... I see what you're getting at. I tried to buy victory in Darius the other day. The continue feature cuts out on the last level. And RayForce/Crisis give you a bad ending if you continue. Dunno about Storm. Taito hates me.

I thought it was illegal in Canada to visit there for the purpose of using the lower age of consent. Guess I heard wrong.

How can anyone not care? I use a 32" Sony flat tube. It's got some image problems, but it beats the crap out of the other sets, which are cheap 25"s. Sure I'll use something else, but I vastly prefer the nice set. Bigger screen, sharper image, better sound(best set's the only one with a home theater setup, one of the other 2 is freaking mono), better experience. And it has component video coming in from the DVD player. The other 2 sets are composite input only(well, and RF. But who uses that?). Not even s-video. It's only an NTSC set, sadly. No cash to get an ATSC one yet.

*cackles maniacally* Man, that made my week.

I feel obliged to point out that the 1980 blast was as bad as it was primarily because it erupted on the side instead of out the top. If it'd gone straight up like it's supposed to, it would've been just a nifty postcard picture.

FAMICOM! Honestly, while I DO like the Famicom game, I have to second the vote for console DYRL. Also worth mentioning are Scrambled Valkyrie on the Super FamiCom, the DYRL arcade game, and the PCEngine's Macross 2036 . Not that they're winning any points for anime faithfulness, but they're dang fun games. ... Though of the 3, only Scrambled Valkyrie gives you free-form transformation.

Oh, get a changer. My DVD player takes 5 disks. If I can watch 5 disks in one sitting then something is very wrong.

Static. I think it's dead, Jim. CNN has nothing. Who needs major news organizations when we've got MacrossWorld?

Cliff notes.

Macross 7 is genreally a love it or hate it show. People have very strong opinions about it. The "hate its" are just a lot louder, as is usual. not louder just more of them No, definitely louder.

HAHA!

Kamjin wins!

That's more in line with strategies I heard, which boiled down to spend the first round dodging and make up for it later when he slows down enough that you have an opening to hit him. Okay, I must be smoking something then. Maybe I'm confusing my memories with the fact that if you let Tyson smoosh you around and knock you down a few times while trying to get hits in, things will get much harder. But if you stay mostly fresh, you have a much better chance down the line as he slows down. Or something. -Al *shrugs* I played the game once, a long time ago. Had no idea what the controls did, lost to Glass Joe while trying to figure it out. Turned me off the game rather quickly.

Some of them, anyways. There should be ones up top and on the sides too, since they're the only way to change orientation in space.

Wow, thats the oposite of reality... Tyson in real life always had to put fools away quick because he didn't have the stamina that other fighters had. That's more in line with strategies I heard, which boiled down to spend the first round dodging and make up for it later when he slows down enough that you have an opening to hit him. ... Of course, the one I heard the most was "enter a secret code and Luigi jumps out of the audience and shoots Tyson."

Didn't see this earlier. The VF-1 allows battroid ejection. Head pops off and the pilot is launched out of the "neck". Hikaru did this once in the TV series. Then Britai snatched him out of the air.
