  1. Actually, more like Microsoft realizing that we still use keyboards and mice and that their last attempt at a brand new interface worked against what people currently use and will still use for a long time. I'll upgrade to 10 when I do a hardware refresh, which I just did last year so it will be a while. Usually, install Windows first then Linux. The other thing you could try is using a virtual machine, unless you need direct access to the hardware.
  2. Yeah, I also noticed the Avengers-Cap uniform-look when I first saw it. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42265&p=1191630 The concept art feels like they intended for a thinner framed actor compared to how Charlie Cox turned out.
  3. Most talk I've seen online is the suit is fine (needs the "DD", but otherwise fine) until you get to the head. The head piece needs to be reworked. When I saw it the 1st time, that's the 1st thing I picked up on. The head piece just looks awful.
  4. Read-> http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=36541
  5. Ma Cross Island. Má-Cross Island.
  6. Please stop giving them ideas. And anyways, HG gave Hasbro a C&D for the Jetfire-colored Sky Striker SDCC-exclusive toy.
  7. So something like the RGM-96X Jesta's shield arm (speaking of which, I really need to go and grab that MG kit) or like Gundam Airmaster?
  8. And yet people still appear to be buying that stuff.
  9. IIRC, Roy fired his VF-0's missiles in Battroid mode while dodging the SV-51's. And I recall a VF-171EX doing the same (or maybe the pilot fired off the missiles as he was changing modes). So it's not like there they can't do it. They just don't do it often. As for a VF, we'll see what Kawamori comes up with his LEGOs.
  10. Currently? Probably hard. OK, that's likely not true. But then the devoted 50 fanboys of RT will scream and shout about how it's not true to the original, it goes against "Carl's vision", blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda; the usual fanboy nonsense. And then that treatment would likely never sell to the execs cuz it's not nostalgic enough and they won't be able to sell it to the dumb masses. It would be original (gasps) but no one would go for it.
  11. Read my commentary about part 2 of the panel. Painfully obvious the guy lives in a bubble and doesn't know anything about Macross or Robotech and what happened between the 2 to get us here. Or worst yet, hasn't even done proper research.
  12. Crop of the original image: You can see the prosthetics on Issac's face to give him that Apocalypse-look. Still doesn't change the fact they made his skin tone too dark and didn't break-up the suit's colors.
  13. http://deadline.com/2014/07/sharknado-2-ratings-record-812773/ Apparently 3.9 million people did. Sobriety-state of those viewers? I have no clue...
  14. The suit isn't bad. There's a certain Stargate-Egyptian thing going on which plays on Apocalypse's Egyptian reign where he was practically a god. The pic with Psylocke and Storm is way too bright as other pics show the suit darker. But then we get to the head and face. That needs some work. Less blue, more gray. In fact, that light blue from Days of Future Past was perfect. Some lines on his face would have also helped.
  15. Cover to this week's EW: More set pics in this week's issue. This Week's Cover: First look at the new generation of mutants in X-Men: Apocalypse And for you pervs, how Olivia Munn got into costume:
  16. Yeah, about that...Forgot to mention. Despite what it may seem, there are lots of lurkers around here. Especially from the other franchise. And since you started it, you might as well continue. But you should have made it, posted it and then detail all the work you put in afterwards. But as I said, it's too late now.
  17. That being said, don't make it so vague that no one knows what you're talking about or no one knows what this is about. Here's a good example what I mean from SDCC 2012: The audience knows just enough to know who he is and what he does, but they never mention his (trademarked) name. And that symbol at the end is modified just enough to look different from the trademarked image, yet distinguishable enough to know what it is.
  18. Yeah, but for PC, which is what the blog post mentions, meh. Split screen will be available for consoles but not PC. Meh. The great thing as well is you can build your own Steam machine. Which has been a boom to the SFF PC market. Build your own Steam Machine
  19. On the bright side, someone has a job for 2 years.
  20. Even mentioning IP holders names in credits can get you in trouble because they never authorized it and can say you are using their name without permission. My advice is be general about what you show and mention. You can show a cockpit, landing gear, a wing with missiles, a tail fin, an engine, a console unit, but never show the full object in-frame. You can show bits but it could literally be anything. Do not reference any establish characters or objects by name and only use it in the general sense (Captain Global? No. The captain? Yes. VF-1 Valkyrie? No. My plane/My fighter/My bird/etc.? Yes.). Good luck.
