Don't worry - I know. I was kidding. Believe me, you get to see Snake Eyes unmasked during the Snake Eyes trilogy. I was just trying to inject a little hollywood into the script. Anyway, they should cast Wesley Snipes, and have him talk trash a lot.

Action Man? Marky Mark for Duke? They'd better get Wesley Snipes for Snake Eyes then, and Chuck Norris for Storm Shadow. And they could always take old footage of Bruce Lee, CG some new clothing on him and cast him as Quick-Kick, or even better - as Tunnel Rat.

I don't think gamepro is around anymore, no. As for EGM, I get it for free because of of Game Crazy. (Somehow when I go in there to trade games, I end up with more credit plus a magazine subscription if I opt for another year's renewal) This last issue has just really pissed me off though. There's an editor named seanbaby who criticizes all people in the US military as being stupid if they joined post 9/11. The last time he was this much of a douche bag was when he was bagging on religion. I wrote the editor an email about that... and got a lame pre-scripted reply. As for Play magazine, I picked up a copy at the grocery store once and loved it. It's really beautifully done, and I like how they include anime and manga while avoiding acting snooty or precocious. I purchased a year of that; I need something to read when I'm sittin' on the toilet. I don't have the time or ambition to visit game sites for information. Unfortunately I'm one of those people who get my game info from the Game Crazy mags I have stationed in the bathroom. Oh yeah, and Macrossworld.

Man did Lair take a bad rap in EGM. Play magazine says it's cool, but they're rather optimistic...which is why I like them better than EGM. EGM is beginning to really piss me off with their stuck-up frat-boy'esque appeal. Anyone read about Heavenly Sword in the latest Play? Oh I can't wait for next month.

Wow reading this thread brought back so many memories of when I used to collect GI Joe comics as a kid. I don't know about any of the stuff you guys are explaining, but I'd give anything to have my Snake-Eyes-Trilogy back. I do have quite a time purchasing old 3/4 Joes for my son on ebay; sometimes I get the coolest deals. Also, the Sigma 6 toys are awesome! They don't make anything other than Snake Eyes for the most part though... I've had to buy extra figures to customize personally for more variety. I even made my kiddO' Tomax and Xamot. If this movie is as cool as Transformers then I'll be more than satisfied.

But dang if the 1J and 1A head scuplts don't look gorgeous!

My wife bought me the blu-ray edition today! I can't wait to watch it later tonight. (it's my first blu-ray movie)

Well. I've finallly gotten to experience "gaming online with a console." I tried playing Resistance FOM and got my butt handed to me 20 times in 10 seconds. That had zErO fun in it. Rainbow Six Vegas is cool, but literally everyone talking on there with a microphone cusses up a storm to the point where it's annoying. I mute them, but then I can't hear what some dickheads are saying to me, thus I don't follow their directions, and I get kicked off servers. I got kicked off a server because the guy who owned it wanted to be the person to capture a suit case (thus winning the battle) and I didn't heed him. And I'm not kidding when I say this - some people must spend half of their life sitting at their PS3 playing Rainbow Six online, judging from the skill and "extras" accumulated by them.

Finally got online with my ps3. My tag is LORDLOVE69, if anybody ever plays rainbow six.

Lawdy. Can the xbox 360 crank the same visuals?

Those pics can't be from the ps3, there's just no way. And if they are, holy *&^^%$#ing **&^%$$.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance?

Geez Goo. You're my hero, man.

I don't know; I never played it on the 360. But it sure is fun as hell so far.

I'm with you 200% there, Keith. Anyone who didn't play all the way through MGS3 is missing out. I didn't buy a Ps3 just to see how true-to-real-life everytyhing will be. I sort of like imagination in games. I hope to Gawd that Final Fantasy 13 won't be about life in New York City, rude Taxi drivers, curb-side vendors and muggings. Maybe if they make the game pre-Giulliani era then the avoiding muggings theme would be more realistic, but still... I don't think all games should be an experiment in being real. As much as I love Motorstorm's beautiful visuals it would kind of mess up the game if I had to start a race all over from the get-go everytime I crashed.

My TV only goes up to 480p for High def. Is it even worth buying blu-ray discs for me? (At least it's a 60 inch TV. I'm still not sold on the wide screens)

Aliens and Blade Runner? Aw hell yeah!

*laughing* That was great! I gotta' wipe the smile off my face. My son's asking me why I'm smiling for. Ah, priceless.

I saw a custom gakken online once, of the big red robot. (Rook Bartley in Robotech, don't know what it is otherwise) It was one of the big gakken toys, and it was holy f--king sh-t gorgeous. They used a bunch of gundam kit parts I believe to fix it up, and a looooooot of skill as well. I wonder if I have those pics saved on my computer still... custom paint job as well. Iwas like Yamato made a 1/48 scale gakken! Okay anyway, you ought to customize yours. Oh, and damned nice collection.

I personally think they look rather cool, although I wouldn't buy one. I would if I had the extra dough though. By the way, does anybody know how long the batteries will last once you turn on the foldbooster and leave it running?

Dude, psycho, NICE work... even though you stole Eug's idea! But man, that's really cool. Someday I may have to do that myself! *claps hands* Great job, great job!

Man... I remember when the very 1st Hikaru 1S was released as a comic-con exclusive. Like a week after that there were pictures on the net of Toynami displaying FP'd 1/100's at some show. At the time THE set price for a Fast pack set was 15 dollars. It's been like uhm... a year now? I think? Something like that. They sure are taking their time...

Gawd, and here I bought a ps3 at full price literally 3 days before they dropped the price and threw in all the extras. Oh well. C'est la vie. I bought a dual-fan from Intec that attaches to the front of the ps3, just to be safe. That system has a loooot of really hot air blowin' out the sides, even though the machine itself stays reasonably cool. The downside of the fan, is that it turns a normally quiet system into a louder-quiet system. And who knows if it'll help? I had a cooling fan hooked up to my 360 almost from day one and it still bottomed out. Just for the f' of it, I'll throw in a list of games I own now: Rainbow Six Vegas, Resistance FOM, Virtua Fighter 5, Motor Storm, Marvel Super Heroes, and Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Motor storm, Resistance, and Virtua are just gorgeous. I need to pop in that Marvel game though, I haven't played it yet.

GIRL, bad GIRL, Big F. Unless it's DYRL. Then my sincerest apologies are yours.

Oooh, I gotta' add this: I think Microsoft has an unfair advantage in this next-gen battle, seeing as there are games going to the Xbox 360 AND "Games for Windows."
