what do you guys think of the Untold Legends games? I think they are some mindless hack and slash stuff, but they keep me entertained...guess I am easy to please. I am really wanting and waiting for Metal Gear Solid! Has anyone have Daxter? My fiancee just loves it and plays it almost every night. Twich

So, what are people favorite games? I really like syphon filter:dark mirror and Killzone:Liberation..I am really looking forward to Metal Gear Solid:Portable Ops Twich

Does the Sony PSP media software allow you to transfer DVD's to a memory card for the PSP? Or is there a special program that you have to load to do that? Thanks, Twich

Hey all, I dont know what happened to the other PSP thread, but I looked through all 4 pages, and there isnt one that I saw, so I decided to start one anew. I have some questions for people who maybe in the know about the Playstation Portable System. 1)I heard with the addition of the Playstation store, that people with a Playstation 3 can download Any Playstation One title to play on your PSP or Playstation 3. Is this true? Will you be able to eventually log onto this site with your PSP and download any game directly onto your PSP? Now do they mean titles like Colony Wars, Final Fantasy 7 or 8 will be downloadable and playable to your PSP? 2) What happened to the PSP wallpaper thread? There were some awesome Macross related wallpapers posted and the thread seems to have disappeared. Thanks! Twich

So, how long do people anticipate the shortage of consoles to last for the PS3? I didnt get my XBox 360 until april or may of this year, and they were pretty plentiful. I am wondering if I wait until the summer of next year to get a PS3 will be hard to find one, as the shortage might still be in effect, or there will be a plentiful supply. Twich

any word on what type of Halo Universe game Peter Jackson is working on? I recently just got back into Halo, and I am very psyched about Halo 3, and I have also gotten into the books too...It seems I cant get enough of it. Twich

I am probably going to be waiting a bit until the machines are more plentiful to get one....I would really like one on launch day, but I know that with only 400k coming to US, my chances are slim to none, and my honey isnt too thrilled at the cost of it, stating that other things could use that money that are more important...so I guess I shall have to wait. I cannot believe the capabilities of the machine and the fact that it is going to be a Blu-Ray player....I just cant wait until I get the okay to buy it, or I save enought to just get it anyway come next year. Twich

BSU, people have also dyed their PS90's black...with great success I guess....the stock is a two piece deal, so it is easy to disassemble and dye...check the FiveSevenforum for pics... Twich

Unfortunately, I think that FN will do what they did with the PS90...limit the production of black FS2000's to special dealer incentive programs...buy X number of guns and get a free sexy limited edition black PS90/FS2000. I like the looks and ergonomics of the FS2000...I am just wondering if the civilian version of the FN SCAR will be less or more than the FS2000...also the FN SCAR will come in many calibre choices....5.56 NATO, 7.62 NATO, 7.62 x 39 (will accept AK mags), 6.8 SPC, possibly .300 Winchester. But this is all kinda moot, because they still have to come out with the FN SCAR for civilians...that wont happen until years end at the earliest...at least that is what I hear through the grapevine.... JsArclight, I have a question...Rhineland arms is coming out with their AR57 upper...I was told that this isnt considered a weapon, that I could order straight from Rhineland Arms and be shipped it without the need for a FFL Dealer or transfer fees....I was told that the lower was considered the firearm portion. Is what I heard true? Thanks! Twich

Just to clarify for you BSU, it uses a .224 diameter bullet..but yes, people have used a 55 grain .223 bullet from 5.56 NATO round to make handloads,and yes people have made some rather hot and awesome handloads. I would suggest looking at the Five Seven site, there is a whole section devoted to handloading...they may be able to give you some good advice. Twich

I'm sorry, I didnt mean to come off as holier than thou FN fanatic...but it just seems the mentality is that if the round doesnt start with .4 and end with 5 then you are some kind of wussy. Yes, I know for stopping power, you cant beat a .357 or a .40 or the ultimate and venerable .45 ACP. I owned 2 Glock 21's in my life and loved them to death....but as far as stopping power....I dont think anyone is going to keep going after I shoot them with a 5.7 and if the first one doesnt stop them, well I have 20 of its brothers in the mag(Five Seven Pistol) or 49 of its brothers(PS90 with 50 rd mag). But ultimately it comes down to personal preference and what you are willing to trust your life with... So again, I am not trying to argue or anything...people have different opinions and they are going to keep those opinions. I guess I was just gut reacting to what I thought was going to turn into another bashing the Five Seven and PS90 because it shoots a .22 round argument. JsArclight, I respect your opinion and I know that you are very knowledgable about the round and that you have fired the PS90/P90, so dont think that I am trying to show you disrespect in anyway. Twich

Have you fired a Five Seven or a P90 Graham? I dont mean to be flippant, but that seems to be a pretty common misconception with people who have never fired the weapon. I own a Five Seven, and I traded in a Glock 21 with 13 rd Mags for it, and I think that it was the wisest decision for me to make. Granted that ammo is not as plentiful as say 9mm, but the round beats out a .22 in all regards...But I guess it is a personal preference and to each his own.... Not trying to start a fight, but it just gets tiresome when I hear that same thing over and over again..... FN wesite that has a nice FQ with the ballistics of the 5.7mm round in all its incarnations A personally owned Five Seven/PS90 website for owners of those weapons-good info source Twich

Scored average grunt 65% Twich

The PS90 that you have pictured up there is an awesome weapon...for a personal defense weapon, I dont think it can be beat( in my opinion) I mean you have the capability of 50 rd mag, you have ambidextrous controls and you have a light compact weapon which comes with non magnifying optics included in the package...plus so many people are making accessories for the PS90 like quad rails that mount over the barrel, and optic mounts that I think this weapon will turn out to be quite popular... The only thing standing in the way is the numbers...FN has something like 16000 purchase orders for the PS90 that they intend to fill by the end of the year....so getting one now might be a bit rough, but if you do I think you will be happy. Now all we need is for wolf to start making some ammo by the truck load and this will turn very popular indeed! Sorry for the Fn rant... Twich

So, just a quick question...where does the art on the front page come from...A model box art, or is it this book...can someone make abigger scan of it if it is the book, that is really a nice picture and it is too bad it is soo small. Thanks Twich

I belong on Moya Twich

Wow, I am very impressed with the VF-0S so far...I hope this get popular so we get all kinds of Macros Zero Valks Twich

can we see some more Macross Zero ones? Maybe some clean screen shots of the Anime done up? Maybe a clean version of the VF-0S and VF-0D...I am sure that you can get the images on this site, in this section even! I just put the three that you did on my PSP while using my PSP to browse and they look great, although the Macross Zero one is kinda "busy" for lack of a better term, but they all looked great! Please, keep up the good work! Twich

Very Good episode, but what happened to the stuff with Lee Adama, they just sort of glossed it over...maybe next weeks episode will explain things better. Twich

Sorry to see you go Kevin, you have always been a good online retailer and I have always been happy with my dealing with you. Good luck with your future endeavours. Twich

Yeah, I thought that seemed a little bit out of character for her. And the whole thing with Lee at the end...I wonder what that is going to mean. Twich

I have this book, and I am moving, so I would like to sell it...what is it worth...I can remember paying a good chunk of change for it when it came out from Hobby Link Japan... Any info would be appreciated. Twich

Ahhh Dungeons and Dragons....that really brings back some memories...Neverwinter Nights 2 is going to be coming out soon along with Dungeons and Dragons Online: Stormreach Twich

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
