  1. Calling anything from Square "genius" is a bit of a stretch.

    I watched my friend play through a bit of the Japanese version and was wholey unimpressed. The CG was nice I guess (although games really need to stop using pre-rendered CG) and the character designs were as flamboyant as possible.

    I'll be waiting for the US released of Ryu ga Gotoku, thanks.

    Considering the fact that my friend happens to be a world-famous artist/toy designer, I'll just have to take her word for it. :p

    But yeah, I can't wait for Yakuza. September release I heard. Birthday present for me!!!

    I'm not really sure where you're going with this. I don't like the designs, the anonymous opinions of a supposedly famous artist/designer dont' really sway me.

    After all, a Square Enix artist designed the costume, and Square is considered a pretty big name in fantasy gameing, and i still hate the costume "Raiden" there is wearing.

    Just because your famous friend likes some poo doesn't mean it smells any better.

    Not going anywhere with anything, bro. Not trying to sway you or anybody. Hell, I don't even know you. I was just pointing out that she's got a background in that kind stuff and that "I" (notice the emphasis on the "I" as in "Rocket Punch", not "KingNor") will just have to take her word for it because, honestly, most of that stuff is over my head.

  3. I believe Michael has turned. Freeing Henry is just the first step in whatever crazy plan Michael and the Others have got planned. He's a mole. There are obvious sabotoge missions for Michael to complete in the near future.

  4. There are 2 episodes left I believe.

    LOST is still an hour away here on the West Coast, but from the commercials I get the feeling Michael is in some way being manipulated by the Others if not outright working with them.

    I've wanted to kick the crap out of him for the longest time. Am I alone here?

    Come on 9pm!

  5. Can anyone identify the  bottle?

    396376[/snapback]

    the labeling style looks like wine, maybe roy brews his own. OT micro brew

    396437[/snapback]

    Definitely not wine. Looked at a few bottles of whisky and the closest I could find is a bottle of Glenfiddich. It's not an exact match, though.

  6. I have to disagree.

    If Hikaru's Character Profile states that "he loves high-fashion", then it'd be a legitimate question to ask whether he prefers Issey Miyake or Dolce & Gabbana.  But it doesn't state that so it would be a silly question.

    However, in the Macross Compendium Roy's Character Profile states that he loves alcohol.  So I think it's fair to ask "What exactly does he like to drink?"; a question that I'd love to ask Kawamori-san one day.

    You missed my point entirely.

    This is a fanciful show full of tons and tons of fake things that require a constant suspension of disbelief. To muse about specifics in the details is akin to asking a figment of your imagination what kind of music it likes. The answer is always whatever you want it to be.

    396452[/snapback]

    Ah so. Well then, let me revise the question for everyone:

    "What do you think Roy's drink of choice is? What do you see him drinking?"

    Better?

  7. I think the point is that we have already suspended disbelief with the whole giant invading aliens, space warping super battle ships, transforming jets, schoolgirls turned pop idols that save humanity and gravity defying hairdoos that asking what sort of booze they drink is in the same line of asking "who's shirts does Hikaru wear?".

  8. Currently I'm been enjoying that new Mike Hard Lemonade Apple version.

    Oh dude, you're killing me. You lost a couple of "cool" points in my book for that one. You're in the UN Spacy, Roy! Time to put away the Hard Lemonade, Hard Apple Cider, Fuzzy Navels, and blended drinks. Time to start consuming some Big Boy drinks! :)

    On the beer side of the equation, I wonder what Roy likes.

    I'm gonna just guess and say Sapporo, and I'm talking about the big bottles. Admittedly I'm just throwing Sapporo out there because I think they have one of the slickest bottle designs ever. I think the 5-point star has to be my favorite 2D shape ever.

  9. Soooo when some of you people played Lara Croft or other female leading character did you feel gay or less manly or something?

    Now your manhood and the quality of a game depends on what some stupid fantasy videogame character "wears"...

    Thank you.

  10. LOL

    396142[/snapback]

    Watch it. It's posts like this that will come back to bite you in the ass.

    396285[/snapback]

    Meh.

    edit: had to uncensor post.

    Uncensoring what a mod did. Not very smart.

  11. Good coffee.

    Sure Roy boozes it up, but if green tea is a commodity, then surely good premium non generic coffee is a rarity on the SDF Macross.

    (Many survivalists say coffee is right up there with booze and salt in terms of big demand items to have for trade when you have mass shortages/rationing. )

    BTW, Rocket Punch, who is that in your avatar, looks familiar but I can't place it.

    396275[/snapback]

    I'm sure Roy loves a good strong cup of Joe after a night of boozing.

    The cute Korean girl in my avi is K-Pop star Lee Hyori.

  12. Probably JD or Makers Mark. Good Stuff!

    396247[/snapback]

    Oooh. Makers Mark is some good sh1t, I agree. The first time I tried it, I thought it was way too harsh. But damned if it didn't go down smoother the more you drank it!

    I could see Roy drinking some Makers on the rocks. Maybe JD if he's already hammered.
