To hell with you naysayers, I'm quite happy so far. Though I can't help but wonder if a 40 year old Basara will wander in somehwere... Taking Macross up another 20 years is definately a good thing, new technology, bigger ships, the proper time for another new generation of Valkyries, etc. Besides, at that era, the U.N. Spacy would/should be adiquately equipped to take on Protoculture level technology (should that become a plot point). Hell, Kawamori "could" even decide to bring back the Megaroad (though I doubt that'd happen) with dexcendants of the original crew.

I personally take the Newtype aspect as the main theme to represent people changing, Vs people who fear change, etc. And considering they always took center stage in Tomino's U.C., it'd hardly call them a plot device.

They mailed them out around march/april (I forget), and they came in thin, really bendable manilla envelopes from "Brocoli" ent.

Question: Has Nintendo released any kind of firmware upgrade that will let you use the classic controller to play gamecube games? Or do you still have to have a specific gamecube controller? I only ask because I picked up a copy of Twin Snakes a while ago, never really wanted to pick up a gamecube, but do plan on eventually getting a wii. Just wondering if I should also track down a gamecube controller.

Gundam to me is more about the whole Newtypes than average joes, the latter of which 0080 gives absolutely on service on.

If you can't bag on peoples beliefs & values, then what the hell is the point in supposedly spreading freedom? Though since this is getting in the non-topic & forum rules area, it's the last I'll say on the topic. Suffice it to say, Seanbaby needs to update his damn website more.

Honestly, 0080 is one of my least favorites, along with X.

Seanbaby is one of the great comic geniuses of our time, and I have no idea what you're talking about. Not everyone is big on Bush's military actions or religion!! Besides, have you never read Seanbaby's old Mr. T vs websites from back in the day?

Kurt Russell as Big Boss would be so unbelievabl awesome....how is the Metal Gear movie going anyway? And say what you will about Escape From L.A., but it still had a totally Pliskin ending.

Yeah, but he also just did Death Proof, he's still got one more in him.

The only thing worse than an EGM review is a gamepro review...is gamepro even aorund anymore? And then there was Gamefan, the magazine so great that its editor wrote multiple reviews under aliases to suppliment his own opinions. That of course was when he wasn't on a drug binch slipping racial slur's through out the magazine...

I thought Carpenter & Russel were going to do Escape From Earth? What ever happened with that?

Now maybe if sega would pop up with a new PS3 Panzer Dragoon game.....

I seriously doubt there will be AU Macross stories, as II proved, it just doesn't work. Besides, we already have Gundam. How many damn times do you want to see the Zentradi invade?

As an albino, it's never been my friend.

Speaking of Lunar II... Plasma rain, most awesome attack in an RPG ever? Or just something snug in by a super perv? Seriously, look at where it came from!

Actually, it's original release date was in july...

In this crazy age of global warming, it just doesn't make sense to go outside anymore.

It always struck me as incredibly odd that game developers don't gear releases for those all important summer vacation months, when kids actually have time to play.

Lunar Genesis/Dragon Song was when I finally accepted that Game Arts was dead.....worst RPG EVER! And I'm actually a little mad that I never got around to picking up Grandia 2. I tried playing Grandia 3, but it just bored me, and I hated the in game models (which is saying a lot, since played through FFVII).

Blue-Ray may proove to have one very useful feature. If MGS 4 comes out with both audio tracks (English & Japanese), then I will truly praise the format

I agree, while the Sega CD did suffer from some bad decisions (i.e. FMV), it also had some of the best games on any sega system. -Sonic CD -Snatcher -Lunar 1 & 2 -Popful Mail -Flink & a pretty decent console port of Wing Commander. And the 32X was cart based, but they did release a few (sadly FMV) disc's that utilized both the 32X & the Sega CD. Though the 32X remains as one of the most useless pieces of hardware in all of gaming, it did strangely improve the resolution (slightly) of pre-existing genesis/SCD games. Now if Sega had actually backed the Sega CD with something other than FMV crap, it would have done much better. Phantasy Star IV was screaming to be a Sega CD title, but sega was too foolish to port it. The 5200 was also far superior to the 2600, though the Joysticks did have a near 100% fail rate, and always burned out after a while.

Back where I come form, we call it licensed fanfiction garbage!

In the current state Manga is in, I seriously doubt they'll snag this license. Hell, I'm surprised they were able to get the movies the first time around. Manga did use most of ADV's dub cast though.

I'm actually pretty torn on my decision here. While I do have PS3 that works as a BR player, I'm still not sold on the format....decisions...
