    Wow, those numbers for the HVD are quite impressive. I wonder what will actually make it in consumers hands and what will become in common use as a replacement for DVD's. Twich

    Okay, let me ask this.....Does the F-22 have the same sort of thrust:weight ratio that the F-15 has? Meaning can it accelerate while climbing straight up like the f-15 is supposed to be able to do? I know that the f-22 can supercruise, but can the F-35 do the same since it is smaller, but has the same engine as the f-22. Also, what is the weapon load of the F-35? does it have the same internal bays that the F-22 has? Why does the F-35 have a 27mm Mauser cannon internally mounted? Is that some sort of concession to Germany to try to get them to buy into the JSF? For the marine role as a replacement for the Harrier, do they intend to mount gunpods on the undercarriage like they did to the Harrier to give it better ground support capability? Twich

    I see that I was mis/un-informed on the subject, sorry to interrupt the discussion. I thought that the trend of the thread was that people didnt like the F-22 because it wasnt as good as the F-15, but I guess I misread the "gist" of the thread. Twich

    Iam curious as to why people dont seem to like the F-35? I agree that the F-22 is a poor replacement for the F-15, but I guess that is not something we can change right now, but would it not be better to have 1 jet that has multiple roles with similar parts to another jet in the inventory? While I dont like the concept of a single engine jet, the "jump jet" role seems really neat for the Marine Version of the F-35. Twich

    Actually, I have about 15 movies for the PSP, I think it is a nice format to watch these movies and I like the quality...the only complaint that I have is the earbuds, they suck and hurt my ears, but other than that...awesome. Twich

    I think that if it is a launch PSP, then it is preset at 1.0....you have to download the firmware updates, so I guess that if they are launch PSP's, then you are all set. Twich

    So, what games are people looking forward to? I am looking forward to Legend of Heroes and Ghost in the Shell...anyone have any info on either of these games? Twich

    I think that I might wait and see what Sony brings to the table before I jump into the Next Gen consoles...besides, I have a PSP that I see is getting more and more interesting games coming out all the time.....Also, I want to see what Nintendo does with its system. Twich

    I went to go see this movie with a friend of mine that had never seen the series and we both loved the movie...I had to explain who the characters were and why they were together, but this thing was a great Sci-Fi movie....I liked it also because it was gritty, things were not always in order and it didnt make space seem like a shiny-happy place....while I love Star Wars and Star Trek, they are too clean sometimes for their own good. I like how Kaylee looks without that extra 20lbs that she had to have for the series, I was sorry to see Book and Wash go.....but it was nice to see that everyone got hurt in one way or another from that final battle with the reavers. I will go and see it again to get all the dialogue and to take it all in... Twich

    The VF-0S looks awesome...gosh I cant wait until this toy comes out! Twich
  13. twich
    I would hope that they would keep the SV-51 in scale with the VF-0S, should they decide to make a SV-51.....which I would hope that they would, I am sure that the thing would be tight and many people would go bonkers over it.....but that would come at a (probably) steep price, which I would be willing to pay in a heart beat for a chance to own a VF-0S and a SV-51 in scale with one another in perfect transformation!!!

    I wonder how much trouble he got in for pulling that little stunt? He looks damn close to the deck and it looks like his wingtip would scrape the deck if he was too close to the carrier...damn impressive picture and maneuver! Twich

    Sweet! Too bad this isnt "that" kinda cable show...I wouldnt mind seeing some nude jello wrestling starring those two...hubba hubba! LOL Twich
  16. twich
    You are correct sir, I agree whole-heartedly! Now adding Claudia Black to that show would be pure genius! Twich

    Wow, judging by that picture, this toy(s) is going to be freakin huge! Twich

    cobywan, huh? What is this in reference to? Twich

    Ummm, I wasnt telling anyone to get anything, I was using this thread, which I believed was a discussion about video cards to tell of my concern about all the next gen cards being PCI-Express, and I have a Geforce 6800 GT OC with 256MB ram and it doesnt run BF2 at high settings, which sucks, as I am in a Battlefield 2 gaming clan and would like the best performance, so in order to get that I was saying that I would have to buy a new motherboard before I could get the new video card. I was basically bitching because I think that sucks! Not telling anyone to get anything. Twich

    what really irks me about the new slew of video cards is that they are all PCi-Express....like the new NVidia cards only come in PCI-Express, which would mean that I would have to get a whole new motherboard, just to get a new videocard upgrade from my 6800GT Twich

    It is too bad that no one has really taken images of the art done in the Tenjin Hidetaka art book and scanned them into wallpapers of 1024 x 768 size of bigger, especially the Macross Zero artwork that is in there....and before you ask, I have the book, but no way to scan them into my computer Twich
  22. twich
    Thanks for the scan, that thing really is lovely. I see that in the resin sculpt it doesnt look like the toy will have movable flaps or anything like that.....I like the fact that there is nothing that can fall off, maybe Yamato learned from their first couple of versions of the 1/48 with the flaps coming off and the nose cone falling off. I think it just makes for a more solid toy to not have all those bells and whistles...K.I.S.S. Twich

    Well, I guess that is just one more argument that I should not believe everything that I read....I rather enjoyed the book, so the in and out of why and how long it took to write really didnt concern me, but when I read the information that was I guess false, it sort of struck me, so I remembered it. Twich

    Let me state first that I really love the book, and in fact, I love most of Heinlein's work.... Have you heard that he wrote that book in like a weekend to protest some Nuclear test that the Us was conducting at the time? I thought that was weird when I heard it, but I remember it being a credible(?) source. I find some of his eccentrancies to be extreme, to say the least. Twich

    that one picture looks like they took a Smith .357 and added a bunch of junk around it to hide the cylinder. I like the new pistols, and I am sure they are easier to use for the show due to the 20 round clips...as opposed to the 6-8 shots of a revolver.(conjecture) Twich
