    Basically what omega said. I'd like to see more effort given towards other worlds in or solar system that hold a strong potential for life. Ofcourse I'd also like to see a viable and progressive replacement for the space shuttle.

    The Viggen still remains one of my alltime favorite fighters. Thanks for the pics. I'd never seen the two-seater bofore actually.

    Found a copy of Ace Combat 2 in excellent condition for $6 at a local media store. Picked it up and have been playing through the missions. So far, really enjoying it for how old it is. The A-4 has been my favorite aircraft thus far. Just an all around fun arcade-style game.

    I remember that CF-18 crash. From a year ago or so I think? Second pic would make for an awesome wallpaper.

    The title is abit misleading as this was actually Formula 2. Unbelievable reaction timing though. Like a Boss are the only words that went through mind after watching this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-GlSGDG7y8&feature=player_embedded

    I like that red on the MP4-12C. Speaking of the Celica, does anyone know when they started marketing the All-trac (GT-Four) in North America? I wasn't certain if it started with the earlier chassis (ST165). I know they stopped bringing them here after `94 which was a shame.

    Actually, WC2 takes place in 2665, ten years after the events of WC. I was never certain when WC3 and IV took place. Thanks for clarifying on that. Also for LOMAC players. Another third-party developer is releasing the Mig-21bis. Looks pretty good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgOezut5o1k&feature=player_embedded Confirmed new aircraft for LOMAC currently are: P-51D F-15E F-14D F-22 Mig-21bis

    One thing that got to me with the craft in the WC games was what happened to the Rapier's, Epee's and Sabre's in WC3 and 4? They pretty much all disappeared and we got the Hellcat but the time between WC2 and 3 was only 3-4 years I think. Not sure if it was Origin just wanting some new fresh fighters or they didn't want to render the more complex designs from the older games. I missed not having the F-57 Sabre in WC3. Thing was a beast.

    They also have WC: Privateer which is one I never played before. I used to play WC1 at my cousins place since he had the diskettes and everything.

    I was thinking of doing an Insanity run with the Sentinel but also considering the Adept. Not sure which would be better for the difficulty level.

    Been playing Wing Commander II and I've forgotten how much I loved these games as a kid. (Basically Korean and Vietnam era air combat in space) Spirits death still gets to me after all this time. Never got to play WC3 and 4 till very recently, thanks to GOG.

    I'm still loling over Marauder Shields and the three Huskateers as the final fight. That said, I still think the Indoctrination Theory has some validity to it as parts of the extended ending did leave the door open to that possibility still.
  13. Shadow
    If these endings were part of their original intent then my faith really hasn't been restored. Still plenty of plot loopholes that went unanswered though I'm sure Bioware will be happy to answer them at a premium in whatever future DLC or even full game they come up with next.

    I've seen other debates like this but thought it would be interesting to have one discussed here. The F-5E Tiger II against the MiG-21bis. Which was the better overall aircraft? Both came out around the same time and both the F-5 and Mig-21 have been reported to have similar performance numbers. F-5E: -Good performance at lower altitude and subsonic speeds. -Better avionics. -More wing surface area. MiG-21bis -More powerful. -Sharp roll rate. -Good performance at higher speed, higher altitude.

    I think the writers would have done better with 24 episodes to work with on the first season than just 12. There are a number things that could have been explored more deeply. The Equalist movement being a big one. I hope that doesn't just disappear into the night in the 2nd season.

    I was excited and alittle concerned when I first heard about Avatar getting a sequel set 70 some years in the future. Wondered if it stand up with what happened in the 3rd season of Avatar and the good writing that was done then. This series so far has exceeded my expectations and then some. Pretty much in agreement with the above opinions about the finale. Eagerly looking forward to two arises in season 2. I hope we get to see some of the other Avatar cast like Zuko and perhaps Toph.(Hasn't been confirmed that she has died yet, atleast from what I've seen.)
  17. Shadow
    On General Iroh. Zuko's grandson looks to be in his mid to late 20s. Awfully young to be pulling the rank of General already. (I know it's fiction but that has always bugged me.) Also on other character ages. I think it's been confirmed. Tenzin = 51. Pema = 35.

    To be honest, I was hoping for the F/A-18E. Granted there hasn't been a dedicated Strike Eagle sim in a long time and flying the F-14D will be a nice perk aswell. I'm surprised the only flyable craft are US when LOMAC had a more balanced approach. It would have been interesting if the Su-34 would be included as flyable since it's roughly the Strike Eagles Eastern counterpart.

    Well Konami released the opening cutscene for its Z.O.E. HD Collection. I really don't know what the point was of the nude Ken scene. Other then that, it was an okay opening. I still want a ZOE 3 announcement.

    This ad still doesn't get old, even after 12 years. I loved Syphon Filter 1-3. Then the series went South with Omega Strain and the PSP sequels. Logan's Shadow was alright but left a serious cliffhanger of an ending. There have been rumors of a PS3 Syphon Filter for some time now. It seems the chances of a Syphon Filter 4 being announced soon could actually come to pass. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    I was bit by the Final Fantasy bug around the time Xenogears was on the shelves so much of my gaming interest was focused in FF7 and rumors of FF8 at the time. A friend of mine offered to let me borrow it during class once but I never got around to taking him up on it. I finally played and beat the game recently but I honestly wish I had played it back then. Many of the used hard copies I've seen go pretty high in the price range.
  22. Shadow
    Nice shots. I never had too much trouble telling the difference between the 17 and 19. Telling the difference between a Mig-19 and a Fitter has been agitating.
  23. Shadow
    YF-29 = YF-19 on crack. To me atleast. It's not bad but as pointed out, there is just too much on it. The additional engines on the wings kinda kill it for me. Not a fan of the 25 either but I do prefer its more contemporary design.

    The drama just continues with the Raptor. http://news.yahoo.com/pentagon-restricts-f-22-flights-safety-concern-210731732.html

    Awesome collection Shaorin. The oldest console I have is an original Playstation. All of my older consoles (NES, Genesis, first PSX) ended up disappearing in a garage sale or broke. My parents sold my Genesis and most of the games without me even knowing about. Still have the Genesis Jurassic Park game and NHL '94. Was also really into older PC titles. Played Microsoft FS 5.0, Microprose F-117A Nighthawk 2.0, X-Com: UFO Defense which was hard as hell for me as a kid. It still is. The list goes on.
