But I LIKE the original character designs. And DYRL's flightsuits just look lame to me. My dream Macross is the TV show we have now, only with all the animation done to the same quality as the title sequence, and without Global Report(waste of a perfectly good episode slot...).

Ya know, I said that too. Then I played Fusion and Prime. The former was crap by any standard, the latter was possibly the single best-implemented game in the series(though I really missed my screw attack, and there wasn't a whole lot to DO with the grappling beam).

Lack of flash is one thing, but some of the AnimeFriend eps hurt my eyes. And I'll be honest, I wish the whole series was done to the same quality as the title sequence. Though a consistent level of quality at any level above "AnimeFied" would be nice. Well, it's not like there weren't other Trek references... I'd argue that he just forgot to fasten it first. Yes. Silence in the right place is sometimes the best thing you can do. Also missed in Robotech's insistence to dub grunts and "thought bubbles" in at every opportunity.

Virgin Road. If they redid one episode, it would have to be that one. One of my favorite episodes and the animation makes me wince every time.

I used to. It gets much better with time and repeated viewings.

I had the 9-disk set preordered. IT's amazing how diffrent it is compared to Robotech. In a way it's the same show, and yet, Macross is much cleaner.

HAven't had a chance to play it personally, but from what I hear, a lot of it's popularity comes from the fact that it's DIFFRENT. Not diffrent in that it's odd(which it is), just diffrent in that it's not what usually gets licensed for a US release.

I don't see the option for "the hot chick with green hair".

I actually heard him comemnting on it at one point(yay for TVs running in public places). Something about how he saw the true nature of Willy Wonka as the anti-christ and was gonna play it that way.

Hey, Depp beats Marlyn Manson hands down. Thsi can ONLY be called an improvement over the last time I heard about this.

Fact: We can't see your face, hear your voice, smell your odor, or anything else. All we have to go on is A. what you type, anbd B. how you type it. Type something that appears to be related to english, and you look smart. Type something that more closely resembles the hammerings of a drunken baboon on a typewriter, and you look... well, not smart. You can't spell. You can't capitalize. You can't punctuate. You can't even pick up on sarcasm based on your use of the old "!11oneone" joke in a manner other than making fun of yourself. How WE look like "f'n tards" for asking you to communicate in a manner resembling that of a human being is beyond me. Fortunately, I am not your "peep." I would be a very sad person indeed if I could count you among my peers. Edit: Why do you keep prattling on about post count? So far you're the only person to make even indirect reference to it. Your post count is not your penis length. It is not your intellect. It is not your worth as a human being. It's just how often you shoot your mouth off. I've seen people with thousands of posts that I wouldn't pay attention to for 2 seconds because they were raving morons. And people with less than a dozen posts that I respected immensely because they actually had something intelligent to say.

OMG I R LAME N00B DAT CAN'T SPELL 'ARE' AND TINKS PEOPLE MAKING FUN OF MY TYPING R BEING SERIOUS!111ONEONE

*bangs head* I'm sorry, but in most places I talk to people online, the whole "!!11111oneone" thing is to make fun of people that put extra exclamations, and especially the ones that let go of shift while they do it. It is an almost universal sarcasm flag.

We don't know. Komillia is around, just not the focus of many stories. In an alternate universe (Macross 2036, game for Sega IIRC), Komillia has joined the UNS. M2036 was for the PCEngine/AKA TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM expansion. So it was for NEC, not Sega.

Was looking at game news recently, and I stumbled upon a picture of Metroid Prime 2's new "Dark Suit." And for a minute, I thought they'd made a goof and put a Robotech Invasion pic in Prime 2's article. Sure there's some diffrences(for one Samus' suit is less bulky), but... Samus has TIRES on her shoulders.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too true.

I was under the impression it was a real made-up language, like klingons. Not that I'm the expert or anything.

I recently threw most of my Matchbox one away. Kept the car-feet and chest fighter, since they were in good shape. It came with no fists and sword(I think we got a return someone else had sent back after losing the parts...). And most of the fasteners broke pretty fast, making for a Voltron that had no hands and fell apart if you looked at it funny, on the rare occasions you could get it together before everything fell off. And the helicopter blades lost the metallic paint, then broke off. Then the core chest unit fell off a shelf and split in 2. I was unamused.

But electrical cars aren't cleaner. They just change where the pollution comes from. A rise in electrical cars will mean more electirical plants to meet the surge in electricity demand. And as lobbyists have made nuclear plants economically unfeasable, they will be burning fossil fuels. Most often coal. They are NOT clean power sources. Add to this the massive amount of batteries electrical cars need, which are disgusting devices when disposed of, and electrical cars really aren't worth it. There's also serious range problems with them currently. I say use hybrid cars. They're a nice compromise position.

*shrugs* Maybe the people that survived Space War 1 were cynical and just assumed a second one would follow. Is that the answer? I doubt there IS an official answer.

Umm, yah. No real surprise given they want to make a live-action movie out of the license. The only mildly surprising thing is that Spielberg is involved. I'm tempted to mail him a few copies of Land Before Time, to remind him that he CAN work in animation.

Don't play many games?

No, I'm of the opinion that he's totally nuts. That, or he's suffering from Herbertism. Make one fantiastic product, then kill the line with subsequent attempts at duplicating your success. The Patriots of MGS2 just really killed the whole franchise for me. MGS2 took the great parts of MGS and bent them to such absurd levels that there was no way I could really enjoy the story that much. The gameplay, on the other hand, was nothing short of amazing. Should I point out that MGS1 was attempting to recapture the success of a prior product? It's a direct sequel to Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake on the MSX computer, and most of it's amazing revolutionary gameplay ideas were implemented ages ago there. And of course, it added some silly bits, like making an army of genetically engineered super soldiers that can't see 2 feet in front of them, telepaths that read memory cards and controller ports, etc.

And there are people in hell who want ice water, but some things just aren't gonna happen I see this one falling through the floor somehow. I'm HG is planning on doing this, they even got the character designer to do a cover for their robotech comic... how well it will be received is another question. If I recall, they intentionally involved Tatsunoko heavily in development precisely SO they could make a valid MOSPEADA sequel.
