  1. Ya 2D or 3D fighters both suck with the standard PS2 controller. The Logitech wireless controller has a good D-pad.

    SF3 3rd Strike, Darkstalkers collection, SF (word warrior, turbo, hyper) on the capcom classics collection all seem to work fine on the stanrard dual shock.

    Not to mention all the Soul Calibur and Tekken games.

  2. I think Bierko is planning to escape again. I saw they used eye contact between him and driver.

    Did you miss the preview for next week's episode?

    I think Audrey's days are numbered. In the preview, Hendreson refuses to divulge the names of those involved and warns Jack 'you can't touch them, but they can touch you.' Add that to the time they actually took out to show a tender moment Jack shared with Audrey... draw your own conclusions about her fate.

  3. Everytime I hear the in-game music I think of the movie "the rock".

    That's probably because the music for Metal Gear was done by Harry Gregson-Williams, who is a bonifide Hollywood composer. He did the soundtrack for Enemy of the State among many other movies including Shrek and Narnia.

    Hans Zimmer was one of the composers of The Rock though.

    Harry Gregson-Williams is the main composer for The Rock. Hans Zimmer was credited because they used some of the themes/cues from his work in Crimson Tide for The Rock.

  4. Who the hell is 'Boxer'?! I played all the PS1 and PS2 Tekken games and the closest thing I can think of is Steve Fox, who is a British boxer, whose fighting style is about as far away as you can get from Jet Li's martial arts style.

  5. 3.  Nagase's location is random, but is often one of 2 spots, and usually the Western-most one. 

    Her location is fixed whenever I play. However, you need to hit a few hot spots before her final loation will be revealed.

    After you locate her, 2 rescue choppers appear. The closest one is destined to be shot down. Just haul ass to the further one and escort it. I usually take out as many ground targets as I can while zipping over to the far chopper, and spam missiles at all the hostiles in the air as soon as I get into range. If you can work fast enough and clear out the immediate area near the rescue chopper then it should make it to Nagase.

  6. TOKYO, Japan - May 1, 2006 - Sunrise announced that the next new Gundam production will be a TV series set in the Universal Century timeline which takes place some time after the events depicted in Mobile Suit Victory Gundam.

    No director has been named as of yet, the only available info on the show was that the mobile suits continue the trend of becoming smaller and more powerful as they have been ever since the events depicted in the theatrical film Mobile Suit Gundam F91.

    A teaser promo has been released on the Sunrise website

  7. Check out today's IMDb news:

    Abrams Slams 'Star Trek' Rumors

    Mission: Impossible III director J.J. Abrams is hitting back at unauthorized reports he is directing the next Star Trek movie. The Alias creator is furious the news was released prematurely and is also upset that key details regarding the storyline were incorrectly reported. He explains to Empire online, "The whole thing was reported entirely without our cooperation. People learned that I was producing a Star Trek film, that I had an option to direct it, they hear rumors of what the thing was going to be and ran with a story that is not entirely accurate." Last week, Hollywood trade paper Variety, reported Abrams was on board and that the film would center on the early days of Captain James T. Kirk and Spock and that Philip Seymour Hoffman was in talks to play the ship's doctor. Abrams won't reveal the true storyline, but hints that it won't feature characters Captain James T. Kirk or Mr. Spock at all, but doesn't rule out bringing some of the original characters back for the new film, adding, "Those characters are so spectacular. I just think that..you know, they could live again."

  8. I liked the aliens. I like the preds. I like space marines. I don't want the movies to be horror. I want war.

    What they need to do is make a trilogy of movies (like LOTR) where there is like a war between the three and we the audience are along for the ride seeing it from all three perspectives. What are the orders being given from each side? What are the tactics they use to beat each other? Who are the main characters or heroes on each side. And what are they actually fighting for?

    Play the campaign mode of StarCraft.

  9. Hmm...great, another game to get a PS2 for... it's on my to-do list, to say the least.  So is that really the policy for pretty much all Bandai games?  Maybe I should just suck it up and buy the Japan release of the PSP Gundam game too...

    393182[/snapback]

    I don't know about all Bandai games but when it comes to Gundam that's pretty much the general rule. Instead of SD G Generation games and Giren's Greed, we get the universally panned failure known as MS Saga.

  10. Lost War Chronicles is actually based on the PS2 game of the same name, and the manga was originally serialized in the Gundam Ace monthly magazine.

    If your PS2 can play Japanese games, then I highly recommend picking up a copy. You can get a new copy cheap as it is now part of Bandai's Gundam Best series of value edition games. Even though the game uses the same engine as Journey to Jaburo (Horrible, HORRIBLE game), the developers tweaked the engine so much you can hardly tell this game uses the same engine based on the way the controls feel and how responsive the MS move. The selection of suits include pretty much everything from MSG, 0080 and 08th MS Team, even the GP-01 is included too! You'll definitely have a blast with this game.

    Don't bother waiting for a US release, Bandai pretty much have this policy of keeping better games as Japanese domestic release only, while we get all the crap here.

  11. OMG! That rat fink of a President is making me SICK. Let's hope Audrey pulls through next week because it finally looks like Bauer will catch up to Robocop face to face.

    BTW. What happened to Aaron Pierce when he was supposed to meet up with Martha Logan?

    He got an even hotter date... with Mike Novic! :lol:
