  1. New pics of the "power core combiners" toys at TFW2005. It looks pretty cool. The minicon has 4 modes (robot, robot weapon, vehicle weapon, armor). This series could be like micromasters evolved. Pretty neat idea and I think I like the designs (pics kinda suck b/c of glare).
  2. If that was the only thing wrong with the game, I'd be happy. But I consider that game to be the biggest blunder in current next gen gaming. They had a winning formula with a few minor things to take out of the game in order to make their next one great. What do they do??? Freaking leave those things in but make them 10X worse. Plus unbalance everything, break some weapons, make snipers weak, make knifes amazing, make perk combos that are just plain annoying, etc... MW2 = Biggest Gaming Blunder IMO. EDIT: Oh, and I want to nominate Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 since they pulled the DLC content character packs without notice b/c Activision couldn't get the licenses renewed (likely b/c Disney refused to renew them since Disney wants another company to do MUA 3). Thus, everyone that got the game this Christmas couldn't play the game. To make things worse, the company announced later that the deadline had been Dec. 31, but the content was pulled on Dec. 22. Total blunder and really pissed me off. Oh, and people without the DLC can't play with people who have it b/c that's how the company made it.
  3. Is this a bad photo or does the face really sit that low? It looks like a good portion of the face is obscured by the chest?
  4. Don't the sprue marks on the titanium version look horrible? I can't imagine there would be a way to fix them either. Edit: My judgement is made from pics seen on dalong.net.
  5. Pretty sure that when you start #2, you only get some "bonuses" towards your character. I think I recall reading that something that said you wouldn't get to keep your weapons from the first, but that could have changed since then.
  6. Wow, total trainwreck on the designs huh...Lockon without a sniper rifle is like Setsuna without blades. The bottom two seem like the designers finally ran out of ideas on how to make cool looking updates.
  7. At least they should make enough money off the VF-1's to get another few molds of other valks hopefully. So are the VF100's pretty much clearance items now?
  8. toyark actually has an illustrated photo from that article. No real pic of the toy though. I'm curious what the bottom right corner of the page shown on toyark is about b/c it looks like there is a YF-19 drawing there, but it might just be a "reference" type thing.
  9. Wow, the designs definitely aren't the best. Disappointing to say the least. But with that much kibble on all the mechs, makes me wonder if they really do combine in some way? Maybe the action will be awesome though.
  10. Eh, an okay end. A couple of lol moments like the peeing on the monkey making "enraged" for NO reason. But overall, just not as good as some of the earlier ones this season. Here's hoping for a South Park Christmas special this year...
  11. Anyone else think Modern Warfare 2 kinda sucks with all the lag and unbalanced weapons?
  12. I didn't like this one on Sunday all that much to be honest. The show needs more Brock. Don't get me wrong, it had it's moments, but the episode overall just wasn't that funny to me.
  13. Sorry, just did some more research and it's Beltorchika's Children in which Amuro dies. But apparently, that's a retelling of Char's Counterattack, so I guess Amuro isn't dead???? I don't know at this point. I'm more confused then before I asked???
  14. I read that in the book, it says they are KIA. That's just what someone posted somewhere, I've never read the book myself. That's why I was curious if he really did die. The movie is ambiguous b/c all you see is Amuro shoving Char's escape pod into the asteroid in a big light show.
  15. Question (SPOILERS) Did Amuro really die at the end of CCA? I now the novel supposedly has them KIA, but with the Gundam Universe being the way it is, a KIA isn't KIA unless you have a dead body to go along with it. So have they ever been shown or had "cameo" type appearances in stuff after the CCA timeline?
  16. What's different about: No. 079 "New Ver." ARX-8 Laevatein - December 15th release, 2,900 Yen (inclusive of tax). compared to it's old version?
  17. Well, awhile back I heard about something similar via the forums. But all it ended up being was the set with a new BFG for the Beta if I recall correctly (and an even bigger price tag too). Doubtful that they'd actually redo their set to look more accurate or anything like that.
  18. Something about that just looks crappy. Chunky or out of proportion or something. Just not feeling it I guess, especially with so many other good candidates out there.
  19. I believe it is actually "F*** YOU CHICKEN! AND F*** YOU COW!" Another great episode to me. I've watched one or two Whale Wars before when nothing (and I do mean NOTHING) else was on and those people are total wusses. Seriously, the global government needs to do something about whaling, but these guys are jokes and half. The captain is moron and I thought it was funny as hell when they were throwing the stinky things on a whale gut covered boat. South Park captured them perfectly tonight.
  20. Phats have issues with output. 2000+ don't have issues with output. Mine is an old phatty too, but my friend's slim works fine with output display (other than the obnoxiously short cord to plug into his tv).
  21. Yeah. You'd probably be lost in Halo 3. But the others should be well documented online already and the story isn't complex by any means. I'm sure you can find a synopsis in the wiki.
  22. That was it. I unlocked the era limiter and the stat limiter in the store. As always, held triangle when I went to the shop to get Sheryl to show up so they cost less. Nice to use the ghost to beat everything into pulp with super RM missiles.
  23. Tonight's episode was hilarious! Funny the whole way through, no confusing b/s like last week. Another classic episode. BTW, laughed so hard at Dr. Mrs. The Monarch's "half" tan. That was great!
  24. I just realized that for some reason, the game didn't offer the "era select" again after I completed the Macross Saga. That being said, I apparently haven't done the second Macross saga. Hopefully doing it will unlock what I want...GRRRR!!!!
