    Use the game disc as a coaster...?

    As was explained to me about a Canadian shopping spree (Boxing Day): the internet is your friend

    Not to mention Bioware had troubles with Mass Effect. Has anyone tried installing that to the HDD?
  4. CoryHolmes
    Why? Is it's hands too small?
  5. CoryHolmes
    Has anyone installed Mass Effect on their 360 yet? I want to know about the reduced load times (if any).

    They're making their own new movie.
  7. CoryHolmes
    Yes. Yes it should. Seriously, as much as I feel that the current pictures being shown aren't TOS enough for a TOS-era movie, there is no denying that the the original NCC-1701 (no bloody A, B, C, D, or E) is one of the most iconic starship designs of all time.

    I don't like Akira very much, and even I have trepidations about a live-action remake. Just leave well enough alone.

    Does that include Battle of the Rock Lords? 'Cuz I had that on Vee Ech Ess at my parents house
  10. CoryHolmes
    ... actually, I posted that picture more for the caption than any specific "version" of the Enterprise

    I'm curious, though... what is this Vee Cee Arr you speak of?

    While certainly in the twilight years of the series, and no where near the cerebral-ness of the early years, series VIII still had some funny moments. Such as the time when Kryten smuggled in some "wicked strength illegeal hooch" into Rimmer and Lister's prison cell... when said two humans were on probation and couldn't be caught breaking any rules. The hilarity that ensued had tears streaming out of my eyes when I saw it.

    All this babble about how six bolts are misplaced and therefore ruining the ship forEVER (and I'm one of the complainers, I freely admit) compels me to post this picture. I wish I had created it, but I'm glomping it from another forum:

    And what was their excuse for changing the positron cannon and adding an Enchanted Shield of Virtue? (other than the chance for new marketting opportunities) The answer? Because they could. As I said before, it's like someone in the planning department said, "Okay, let's do it all over again. Only make it more XTREME! now." Yuck.
  15. CoryHolmes
    Yeah, they did. Based on the assumption that "Veritech" is the name for all transforming mecha (much as Destroid is the name for non-transforming mecha), and Valkyrie is the class name for the VF-1.

    I've got both this book and the Shadow Chronicles books. As a longtime Palladium buyer/player, the system isn't that horrible for me. Though somewhat clunky compared to newer ones, it still gets the job done. For the most part, I enjoy the new Macross book. Can't really say for any particular reason, but I like it. There is one downside, however. I enjoyed the original RPG's names for the Destroids and can't quite wrap my brain around the original names now used

    I'm not feeling the love for these new designs of old mecha. It's like they went, "Do the same with the old, only make it more xtreme! That would be like taking the Macross designs and redoing them with modern design ideas, like ulta-thin connections and very slender mecha. I will be looking forward to the new Evas, though. They should be neat.

    Gears schmears. *hugs his Mass Effect 2 plushie*
  19. CoryHolmes
    Don't even get me started on MH's weird proportions. Just... ugh. So far Beagle/Toynami is looking to have struck the best balance between the two modes. Whether or not that justifies the massive price depends wholly on a review by a certain MW denizen

    I loved the idea behind the movie. The execution thereof, like so many other projects that fail to keep my interest, leaves much to be desired.
  21. CoryHolmes
    CMs are easy spot. Just look for the hedious seam running down the chest.
  22. CoryHolmes
    Ah. Finally a response from someone south of the boarder. I was beginning to wonder if the show even aired down there
  23. CoryHolmes
    I may have lived in Alberta for a year (Calgary, to be specific), but I never went to any anime conventions while I was there. Now I'm back in gorgeous British Columbia (the centre of Canadian civiliazaiton)
  24. CoryHolmes
    And to think, I was thiiiiiiis close to promising myself no more DVDs

    That's a very good point right there. One of Bond's defining characteristics, regardless of how much there was of it, is his dapper, debonaire attitude. Running from Connery's witty one-liners, to Moore's over-the-top comic take, to Brosnan's wicked grins, all version of Bond have that aspect and that's part of what sets him apart from other superspies. Craig's Bond really didn't have that, and doesn't look like he'll be getting it in this movie either. But his Bond is better than most other movie spies. All Bonds are better than other movie spies. Except maybe Maxwell Smart
