yeah, they look great, but I've already got these kits. A new set of decals and paint scheme isn't worth my time, or money, especially now that I'm back in school. Now, a new valk? That would make me lay down some money... especially for a VF-11B. Hear that Hasegawa? Especially for a Thunderbolt!

Very cool stuff! Man, I'm really looking forward to this one....

Ack.... Between this and RE4, I think I am finally going to break down and buy a gamecube.... And I'd resisted the Nintendo bug for so long....

Been gone for a bit, but I'm interested... put me down for one.

Very nice. Make more. Can never have too many BGC wallpapers....

Man... that thing is going to be HUGE!!! Frankly, I'd be surprised if it went for less than 200 bucks...

Sexay! Nice, very nice.... Great other stuff too! Very impressive....

Isn't it by a sexy pose-off? Something like that....

Very nice! I like the choice of colors...

Super nice! Very clean and well executed colorscheme, too... I like....

I remember seeing it (and voting for it), but I long since recorded over the tape.... Frankly, I love the show. Like it better than most of the Adult Swim fare..... Anyone see the return of Magnanimous? The robot Elvis with boomstick and chainsaw was just too damn cool....

I rented it for a dollar, and thought the show was about worth that. I loved the character designs and the OP piece, but that alone won't make me buy the DVD for 30 bucks.... I'll wait to see more before I make a final call, though.

I was just about to list that one. Too bad they didn't make a windows version... Unless they did, and I missed it. The X-Com Collectors Edition (had X:UD, X:TFtD, and X:A) was windows enabled. I had to get a direct draw patch for XP, though.... 2K ran it fine.... You know the one thing I always wanted but never got? The ability to nail an alien with the butt of your weapon to dash it to the ground.... I always hated turning a corner and being face to face with a Muton, and there I was with a single plasma shot to try and get the bastard down.... TFtD wasn't as bad, as you had the thermal lances to help....

More and better pics!

Heh... long list. Maybe. Shin Samurai Spirits (Samurai Shodown II) Soul Calibur II, et al. Street Fighter Alpha 2 X-Com: UFO Defense X-Com: Terror From the Deep Civilization III Rogue Spear (LAN only, though) Final Fantasy 6, 7, 8, 10 (didn't like 9) Final Fantasy Tactics Disgaea Star Wars: Battlefront (might wear off soon, though) Tekken 3 (best of the lot, afaic) Rival Schools, Justice Gakuen 2 Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time Klonoa: Door to Phantomile Dragon's Lair I & II (got these on DVD now) That's all I can think of now....

Screw the battroids... WHERE'S MY VF-11B?!!!

I think he's done real nicely on the pure mech stuff, but I'm not sure I like his take on the character design or Boomer mechanics.... Taken out of context, though, they look pretty damn good...

Heh... Completely off topic, but I was watching the Special Features disc from the recent OT release, and noticed that in the Making of Episode III Game bit that one of the game developers has a Macross poster on his wall... 4:30 in....

Wow, super-nice. Likewise, how did you weather the Valk proper? Kinda looks like pastels...

As far as control goes, it really depends on the series you talk about. For instance, I prefer the Samurai Spirits controls over the King of Fighters series. They move better, and aren't quite as stiff. I find that the characters are more intuitive to use and less involved in button mashing. Likewise, I prefer the Vampire Saviour games over the Street Fighter games. The controls are virtually the same, but the Vampire Saviour games are a bit more forgiving, and you have some mad possibilities, but doesn't go into the combo craziness that you saw in Capcom vs. Marvel and the like. If I could choose an all time favorite, I'd have to go with Soul Calibur II for ease of control and gameplay, but since Namco isn't an option, I'm going to have to go with the Samurai Spirits system from SNK, then Vampire Saviour, and then Street Fighter, preferably the Alpha 2 system. I haven't played SVC Chaos, so I can't vote from a non-biased position yet....

Looks great! You know what else looks good? That Starship Troopers powered armor there in the corner... very nice. I'm still kicking myself for not buying one...

Meh. His goods now, so he can do whatever the hell he wants to with them, as far as I'm concerned. It'd be different if he was posting falsehoods, but he's not, so....

I agree. I know there's two kits I would absolutely love to see in 1/72... well, three, I guess. VF-5000 VF-17S VF-11B Since Hasegawa doesn't seem inclined to release any of them....

Heh... if you want one reeaaally badly, you can grab this one.... What a BIN, though....

Whoa! First time I've ever seen that.... Well, if they do rerelease it, I know one will find it's way into my collection!
