Aliens: Colonial Marines

Too bad there's no P.C. version.

Anyways the screenshots so far look promising. I especiallylike the fact that when playing there's no HUD instead you get a "motion tracker."

Isn't anyone interested in these one?

Anyways some leaked but blury clips have appeared in youtube:

With those screenies I hope we get to see some very interesting weapons like the "sonic electronic ball-breakers."

Anyways...

I like to keep this handy for close encounters.

Tentatively stated for Q12009!!!! ===> http://kotaku.com/5125946/aliens-colonial-...due-before-july

Epilogue + next week

-Gra... Mr. Bushido decides to meet Setsuna. And he goes TRANS-AM!

-Coup takes over a space elevator. I think it might come down.

-Lockon drags Setsuna's ass back to ship.

-A-LAWS go WAHHHHHHH?????????????????

Now why am I not suprised by that capability in Gra... Mr. Bushido's new ride?

The only question now though it it has a time limit, and if in fact it was based from notes left behind by Elfman.

So uhmmmm...Michael Bay managed to get backing from the U.S. military again?

Lets see now...I see AH-64 Apache and some UH-60 Blackhawks....anything else I'm missing? An Aircraft Carrier perhaps?

Someone needs to integrate this with a current line fighter so that we finally get a prototype VF.

Mr. Bushido's new ride from another angle.

AWESOME!!!!

Just read the synopsis of episode 14 over at http://randomc.animeblogger.net/2009/01/11...age-2/#comments and this one caught my attention:

Shades of Macross?

Forgot how much Keyhole sucks...

http://www.freshverse.com/tv.php#live is a bit better.

Snip.....

-Of all the fraking times to hear Marina sing....Setsuna could have finished Ali right there. GAWD DAMMIT.

-Louise is getting a new Mobile Armor.

First Point: Same as above.

Second Point: I hope it is'nt something named: "NZ-333 α Azieru (Alpha Azieru)"

I feel sorry for Louise,

now she thinks Saji betrays her, she misunderstood why Saji is in CB by relating Saji is Setsuna neighbour and she think Saji is CB member since the beginning and directly involved with her parents murder.

The way Andrei talks to Louise reminds me of Floyd from CG since

they share the same VA? Maybe someday Andrei will dance awkwardly in Count Pudding style

That was pretty cold-hearted of Louise to delete all those pictures of her and Saji. She definitely needs to be snapped back to her senses.

At least this time, Saji realizes that he is about to make a big mistake before he actually acted on it.

Why do I get the sinking suspicion that Louise manages to kill Saji and then she finds out the real circumstances of why Saji is in CB.

Seems too cliched, right?

I know this has been floating around the interwebs for a while now but just in case anyone missed it.....

Best casemod ever

(if you like BSG that is...)

Hey the site also features the "Worst Body/Case Mod Ever"

http://www.geekologie.com/2008/10/not_awes...asebody_mod.php

So anyone seen the trailer yet?

-Both scream "why are you here?!!?!?!?!?!?"

-Next week: looks like 00 Raiser is gonna p0wn. Ribbons screams h4x.

About saji and louise....

@ l33t speak.

Reminded me of this:

ok maybe i'm weird but the new suit designs are seriously making me think of tekkaman blade, not that is bad i liked tekkaman, come to think of it, the orbital ring was in it too......

IIRC, when the Gadessa first appeared a LOT of people here (including) and in A.S. did see some resemblance with the Tekkaman suits.

That is badass

I've always wanted to see something like that one day: thanks Sunrise

The good thing is it reminds me of Ramba Ral's Gouf in MSG. The BAD thing though is that those "beam fingers" also reminds me a lot of "Shining Finger."

WOW!!!!

http://randomc.maximum7.net/image/Gundam%2...0Large%2032.jpg

I just know Patrick wouldn't mind having a copy of th second pic.

ALSO......Is this dude ageless or what? AND he's supposed to be older than Sumeragi/Kujo and even Kati.

Episode 9:

Episode 2:

http://randomc.maximum7.net/image/Gundam%2...0Large%2011.jpg

BTW.....This Sumeragi vs. Kati dynamic reminds me a lot of Seed (Murrue VS. Natariel) and Seed Destiny (Murrue VS. Thalia). I don't know if that's a good thing or bad. But despite that I hope we see to get bouncing boobies in 00 ala Seed.

Lunar AVIs are ok. I prefer Shinsen or Menclave (whenever those 2 will get back to Frontier).

Be advised though that the first of the Lunar *.avi for episode 25 was pretty crappy. I hope Lunar rolled out a version 2 for episode 25.

*cough* fang *cough*

Oh yeah. We did see that in Season 1 on Ali's stolen Gundam. Hope we see that on Ali's new ride although from the looks of things...Ali's Archee seems to be a close combat unit.

I still got Zeta vibe here:

Ribbons -> Paptimus Sirocco

Ali -> Yazan

Louise -> Sarah

So we got an innovator revive revival for the Gadessa pilot. Super soldier with quantum brainwaves can communicate each other with "brain-talk"

This got me thinking...if Innovators can talk with one another "wirelessly" are we gonna be seeing Bits/Funnels based weapon systems for some mobile suits in future episodes, then?

BTW Ali's Gundam has beam sabers on the feet. Reminds me of Aegis Gundam from Gundam Seed.

We need some more live streams....Streams are getting more congested every week.

-Tieria in a dress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and he/she/it is dancing with Ribbons. Ribbons talks to Tieria about the plan and CB. Reveals that Ribbons hacked VEDA. Fanboys and fanartists go crazy with cross-dressing pics!

WTF!!!??? So this IS Tieria?

That bastard, why didn't I see that coming, it was right in front of my eyes, all along.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C5%8Dru_Furuya

Tōru Furuya (古谷 徹, Furuya Tōru?) is a veteran narrator and seiyū (voice actor) born on July 31, 1953 in Isogo-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. As a child, he was a member of Gekidan Himawari, a children's acting troupe.[citation needed] He is currently employed by the talent management firm Aoni Production. He was a best friend of the late Hirotaka Suzuoki.[citation needed] He was at one time married to fellow seiyuu Mami Koyama but amicably divorced in 1983. He later married seiyuu Satomi Majima.

Furuya is most known for the roles of Amuro Ray (both in the original Mobile Suit Gundam and its following Gundam sequels), Hyouma Hoshi (Kyojin no Hoshi), Pegasus Seiya (Saint Seiya), Yamcha (Dragon Ball), Kyosuke Kasuga (Kimagure Orange Road), and Mamoru Chiba/Tuxedo Mask (Sailor Moon).

He also used a pseudonym Noboru Sōgetsu (蒼月 昇 Sōgetsu Noboru) in the cast of Mobile Suit Gundam 00 for Ribbons Almack's role (but used his real name in the narration role). Both the narration role and Ribbons mark Furuya's first role in a Gundam series after the originals.

For me Full Metal Panic a.k.a. FMP was one of the few that I consider to be "Military (real) Mecha Anime." Others were Macross & Gundam (U.C.).

I especially have a special place in my heart for FMP, because of the setting, Cold War-like, IIRC.

-Next week, time to see Tiera-clone in a dress.

WTF!!? Head EXPLODES!!!

Also.....Tekkaman????

PLUS.....Al x Marie FTW!!!!

Yeh, I can actually watch the live stream an hour earlier, thank you DST.

-Lindt slaps Sergei for letting Saji go.

-Damn, I wanna be Mr. Bushido. Just walk in and out of a briefing. Comes in and says I'm joining this operation and walks out. I would love do that in meetings.

@ 1st spoiler: DAMN. I thought he would be given the "Bright Treatment" like in Zeta so that Sunrise can truly paint A-Laws as the bad guys of 00.

@ 2nd spoiler:

http://randomc.maximum7.net/image/Gundam%2...0Large%2028.jpg

Anyways....

did Katie punch this s.o.b.'s lights out?

http://randomc.maximum7.net/image/Gundam%2...0Large%2010.jpg

So Katie and Sumeragi/Kojuo are AEU tactical planners?

interesting, so the innovators are also the thrones faction. so if you continue going by the zeta analogy,

katalon/cb -> aeug

a-laws -> titans

innovators -> jupiter empire?? (or whatever it's called that scirocco was from)

IIRC, the Jupiter Energy Fleet or the Jupiter Energy Group.

If we follow the analogy above....then who's Axis Zeon (Haman's Group) in 00?

Archee Gundam?

I think that is Ali's new ride....it was seen at the end of Episode 5.

And it soo skinny, maybe I better called it Malnutrition Gundam Throne. Damn Ali, he kills 3 Gundam pilot, stole a Gundam and level a country single handily, how cool a villain can get?

He'd be AWESOME if he starts dropping colonies on earth.
