  1. LOL that's an awesome plane. I totally agree with the "throne zone" designation for the emergency exits. I spent a good year on a project traveling almost every week, and went from no status to platinum in like 5 months. Given the choice between a first class upgrade and a coach e-exit seat, the latter was more comfortable 8/10 times depending on the plane (unless you were in a hurry to get off - the only real benefit of first class... that and free booze).
  2. Imagine if you were a time traveler from say the year 1950... and you warp to the future TEH YEAR 2010! You're expecting flying cars, utopian society, and human colonies on Earth and Mars. Instead, you find that the highest form of technology is a piece of software called "Twitter" that enables you to inform your friends on what you had for breakfast. Oh, and there is a length limit too, which has the added effect of destroying the English language as people try and cram more sentences with unusual shorthand.
  3. Isn't Sukhoi part of UAC - which is supposed to be owned by the Russian government?
  4. China dare not make a move against Japan, with its 9th generation missile defense shield program!
  5. That would fit in quite nicely with the 3 Zentradi spies angle.
  6. When I think about the traditional definition of a RPG I'm reminded of this: XD .... DAMMIT can't play this game until Thursday night latest .
  7. I have the mega-crotch transformable GM on its way :
  8. keypad tones on mobile phones... you mean to tell me people actually keep these on or find them cool ? . YEA I WANNA HEAR TEH FEEDBACK SOUND OF TEH NUMBER 1!!!!
  9. And so the first chapter of the Human-Cylon war begins...
  10. Let's make Max female, and Mirya male, discuss.
  11. This has probably been discussed in the BSG thread - but is there a possible connection between Daniel Graystone and the Daniel piano playing guy hallucination of Kara Thrace? Starbuck is probably too young to be their daughter, but a grand-daughter perhaps?
  12. Lol, if this were China's prototype and not Russian, we would have had 3 pages of: "NOOOOO ASTRO PLAN GTFO! WTF PLAGIARISM.... FAKE LV HANDBAG!!1!!!"
  13. /Erects the anti-stoning heretic shield
  14. On the mechanical side, one thing I'd do differently is to eliminate battroid mode and modify gerwalk. First, battroid - other than shooting missiles in style and mecha kung-fu serve very little tactical value. It makes more sense for tactical battroids that specialize in hand-to hand and combat on solid ground. Perhaps even transformable ground mechs. The DC-5 Lotto from Gundam Unicorn for instance looks pretty sweet and specialized for this role. Gerwalk can be a dedicated space-fighter and the legs basically solve the problem of space-fighters in general, which is the need to exert thrust in a variety of directions, lacking the strong gravitational pull of a celestial body. Also, 2 modes probably makes high quality toy design easier.
  15. Next idol should be a AI vocaloid... oh wait, done that, nvm.
  16. Scenario: it is 2013. Humanity miraculously survived the 2012 Mayan Zombie Alien Nibiru Invasion Apocalypse, . . Astro Plan has won an academy award for best foreign animated film. We are still waiting for HL2 episode 3.... but Shoji Kawamori has gone further into the deep end, Macross will be rebooted. If it happened, what would you like to see differently? Stay the same? Which characters would you keep, modify, or just eliminate completely like poor Nanase.
  17. Unobtanium just sounds so ridiculous though... I much prefer Mass Effect's Element Zero or like they refer to it Eeeeeeezo in-game. If they're going to make fictitious elements might as well give it an more plausible name, but yea that's not important. BLUE PEOPLE FREEEDOOOOOM! ARGHHHHHHH! DEFORESTATION BAAAAAD!
  18. This was a so so episode, the bit about Cylon-Zoe chopping the guy's finger off was a bit predictable - but now we can see the roots of the Cylon rebellion! I think the best part of the series thus far is still to illustrate the world of Caprica itself in such unique and great detail.... did Joseph's brother walk right into Chinatown for his protection duties ?
  19. The mindless drones that rely on Steve Jobs/Apple to tell them what is hip and/or useful.
  20. Also would have liked to append Xenogears - this was a truly ambitious game, epic storyline, characters, and you get to fight in mechs, but Disk 2 was wtf, I think they ran out of budget or something. On that same note, I really enjoyed the Xenosaga Episode 1, I have yet to play the remaining 2.
  21. I'm getting the same problem. Site seems to get hosed around 20:00 to 22:00 ish GMT.
  22. I hope JJ Abrams takes over this franchise one day and makes Conan Faaaaabolooouuuuus!
  23. Intriga.... Accion.... Amor.... Super Nave Espacial Zeta GANDAM solo en Univison.
  24. Macross is perfect.
  25. X-Com: Enemy Unknown (The very first!) Galactic Civilization 2 Rise of Nations Far Cry 1 Half Life 2 + Episodic Contents CounterStrike
