  1. I'm also asking for a new harley but I'm thinking that's going to be a no from the boss...I mean wife.
  2. Ok, so I was thinking. Many of us are asked by loved ones for a list of x-mas items for the upcoming holiday season. Since we're on macrossworld regularly, I'm thinkign we have that covered. But what about the coolest stuff from other anime and toys? So what Items are on your wishlists for this holiday season to the middle of 2008? If its up for order or preorder include a link if you can. Me, Mega house cyclones http://www.hlj.com/product/MEG80783 http://www.hlj.com/product/MEG80806 Revoltech Rei http://www.hlj.com/product/KYD01171 Rockstar for PS3
  3. Just found these up on HLJ's site http://www.hlj.com/product/KNM13485 Kinda cool
  4. Whats the hasbro cartoon colours masterpiece starscream look like? I might be able to help.
  5. How long is it taking for you guys to get your BLuRay movies? I bought my PS2 about 9 wks ago and still haven't got my movies.
  6. Want to track down a copy of the UK release of Studio Ghibli's Gedo Senki (aka Tales from Earthsea) when its released later this month. Would anybody know of a UK anime shop or store that ships to the US? Gedo Senki won't be released in the US until after 2009 since Sci Fi has the rights to it until then. Plus I'm betting disney screws up the dub. Supposedly the UK dub was decent. Thanks.
  7. You can block the colored shots and dodge when he swoops down. Attack as soon as possible on the ground block when appropriate. Once you get the hang of the blocks its pretty easy...If I remember there was also a bit of a pattern to it.
  8. So what are blu ray movies running in Japan? Are they like $90 or are they paying the same as we are.
  9. Heads Up. If you bought a PS3 60GB from circiut city (or anywhere for that matter) and are disappointed with the reduced price of the 80 GB, mention it to a manager. My local circuit city has offered a free game since technically I could have brought back the 60GB to exchange for an 80GB...not that I would want to but I did mention it. I haven't been there to pick it up though yet. Will probably get ratchet and clank. Its not much different from the whole Iphone thing where the early adoptors got screwed.
  10. Now, I'm judging off the original xbox, but on Halo 2, cromson skys, mech warrior 1&2 there were nothing but lag problems, and dropping of games. I've yet to have a game drop on my PS3 and have zero lag problems with Need for speed carbon, or Warhawk. Warhawk has double the players (32)that can play halo. And this is with the same connection and set up. Then add in that microsoft swept the drive problems on the original xbox under the carpet not telling customers that certain drives weren't supported and were failing. Send my xbox in and it came back 3 months later worse than it was before I sent it to them. Plus they promised that they would suspend my xbox live account for the duration of the repair...I get it back and they didn't suspend squat and wouldn't refund the time or money. Add in the crap of the red ring of death and there no way I would buy one. Many are having to sent in their 360 3-4 times and it still doesn't work properly...I don't call that owning up. They build a failng product and expect that extending a warrenty is going to fix the underlying problem...what a joke. Until the new chips come out and they work out the bugs the 360 is crap. Hell I got a version 1 ps2 (picked up on the day it was released) that still fine and kicking and have yet to have a single problem. That's quality. I can only hope that my ps3 can do the same. I doubt a 360 can manage lasting that long without a problem.
  11. I just think it would be nice if there was a working HD-DVD drive for the PS3...that would end the format war for me. I wouldn't have to wait for a blu-ray version of somehting. I'd buy the 360 but I loath microsofts handling of the 360 line. They were nothing but trouble for my xbox. I'll never purchase one of their crappy systems again, plus xbox live is a total rip off. Nothing but lag and crap gameplay. PS3 is so much better. No lag and no constant dropping of games.
  12. I think the xbox360's HD-DVD drive (bought seperately) is the still the cheapest on the market, I think. I've got a TDK external DVD burner...maybe I'll try that first just to see if it would work.
  13. Question: Do you think it would be too hard to get an external HD-dvd drive to work on the PS3? I'm thinking one could take the HD-DVD drive for a xbox360, stick it in an external case and connect using USB. How hard would it be to make a driver since the system is basiclly linux?
  14. So I picked up Bleach- Shattered Blade. Its not bad. I really like the controls and the action is fast and furious. It does take long to win the game with one character in episode mode but there are many (I'd say at least 20) character's to open and beat episode mode with each one. BTW the background for the episode is a bit hoakie but they fit it into the storyline nicely. Also, for those that aren't watching the series in japanese it doesn't go too far ahead of where cartoon network is at. Gameplay works with a series of flicks with the wii-mote and movemet by the nunchuck. Three levels of attacks for each of chop, slash, and stab. Then there is also bunkai moves. They also added a little mini-game that can occur when their is a "clash" of two A-button attacks. Its basically a 5-round game of rock, scissors, paper using chop, slash, and stab. Winner gets to deal out the damage measured in win margin. So far I really like the game. Don't expect the level of play that's in the PSP games but is quick mindless fun with a shallow learning curve. Anybody could pick this up and offer a decent challenge within 15 minutes of play...making it hella fun when having friends over to play against. I give is a 9/10 when considering what else we've seen for the wii.
  15. Does anybody know when Sousei no Aquarian will hit the US for release? How's doing it? Or what they will change then name to?
  16. So are any of you playing Bleach Shattered Blade? I hope its good.
  17. can anyone tell me if the first DVD was ep1&2 or just ep 1? I netflixxed it and cam't remember. thanks.
  18. I'll added you as a friend and will join the clan next chance I get to play....that is unless you guys want to start a macrossworld red and blue clans. That might be fun. I don't play too much. Right now I'm kinda fixated on Heavenly sword.
  19. Is ep 26 the final episode? I just want to confirm this before I finish the series...for some reason I thought there were 27 episodes.
  20. Here's a Heads up for you guys. In this sunday's Kolhs ad there is a ad for 30% off all video games. Even though my local one's don't carry PS3 titles, the circuit city I go to honored the ad and gave me 30% off of heavenly sword and Dynasty warriors gundam. I didn't even have to fight for it...also the kid checking me out says "Nice find...I guess I'll have to get some game with this too." I'm sure it would work for 360 too. Here you go Halo Fans.
  21. Heads up. In this sunday's Kolhs ad there is a ad for 30% off all video games.

I didn't even have to fight for it...also the kid checking me out says "Nice find...I guess I'll have to get some game with this too." I'm sure it would work for the Wii too.

  23. Sorry, I don't have any...So by the way are you still recasting stuff? I really enjoyed some of the stuff you made in the past.
  24. Check this out... http://youtube.com/watch?v=7MjYAJp1uXM&amp...ted&search= I actually kinda like this version better than the original. If anybody has this version called: Fly! Gundam (Psychedelic Dance Remix) Could I please get a copy.
  25. So will the dual shock 3 still be sixaxis? It would be a shame to loose that capability for future games just to add rumble. Also do you think they make a guitar hero guitar that you insert the sixaxis like the wii mote on the wii version of the guitar? I hope that makes sense
