The computer and electronics super geek thread
JB0 replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yes, but not ideally since Crysis is designed for high single-core performance. ... Actually, "not without mods". Crysis uses 3DNow! instructions when running on an AMD processor, and AMD removed 3DNow! support. -

You know, the more I think about the He-Man crossover, the more disappointed I am with it. I know this is being done on Mattel's side as He-Man but also Trvansformers instead of Transformers but also He-Man... but there's a lot of vehicles in He-Man and a Land Shark that turned into Skeletor would be frickin' awesome. Pair that off with a Wind Raider that becomes He-Man and you've got a hit on your hands. Or better yet a triple-changer that turns into Prince Adam as well!- 17500 replies

Yeah, that about sums it up. Spoilers: Even wearing Megatron as a shirt won't stop him from betraying Skeletor at the worst moment.- 17500 replies

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
JB0 replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
On the other hand, SMS is only equipped for the job because they're doing testing for the new fighter before the NUNS adopts it. And I recall there being lines to the effect that SMS was doing the testing primarily so that the government didn't owe anything to anyone if something went wrong. Independent contractors aren't entitled to medical benefits or compensation to next-of-kin, they're just up a creek if the lightly-tested plane decides to go project supernova under their chair or something. Ironically, in this case the gubmint probably paid out more in medical and bereavement due to their policy of being responsibility-dodging cheapskates. -
It probably won't do SegaCD. It isn't impossible, but I think if they'd cloned the more-expensive MD Everdrive Pro they would advertise that fact. I do hope it's a good clone.

Mortal Kombat 2, in theaters and Imax Oct 24, 2025
JB0 replied to Old_Nash_II's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I like the implication that Mortal Kombat's universe differs from our own mainly in that New Line Cinema didn't get bought out.- 32 replies

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
JB0 replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
That's a cliche I've never really understood. Surely the point of trialing a prototype is to find out if it meets performance expectations and is fit for purpose. Adopting a machine that WASN'T trialed based on the performance of the machine you tested just doesn't make a lot of sense. It's like if the US had tested the YF-22 and then bought the F-35A because the -22 tested so well, instead of testing the YF-35. -
Ayup.

Same. The Spacejet Winnebago and Orguss Tank modes fall into the "so bad it's good" category for me.- 17500 replies

I think Nekkimus Prime is kinda awful. The Optimus chest and abs looks terrible on the Fire Valkyrie, and Space Winnebago mod looks hilariously bad(I kinda love it). The "truck cab" mode is... it's just embarassing. I was happier when I thought they just backed the Gerwalk into the camper. I wish they'd drawn more design cues from Rodimus Prime instead of forcing this to be Optimus Prime. The Space Winnebago makes it clear SOMEONE thought he should be Rodimus. ... I still think he should really be hybridized with Armada Starscream, though.- 17500 replies

JB0 replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Does it end with Gigantis unleashing the ide and retconning the universe out of existence? Sorry, I just love that "Mobile Suit Vs. Giant God of Legend: Gigantis' Counterattack" is a thing that exists.- 4001 replies

I still say they should give up and recast Silverbolt as an XB-70, where a big block on the plane's underside is RIGHT.- 17500 replies

AKIRA LIVE ACTION MOVIE = Life Support?

It was briefly against the rules to mention it here, due to the flood of threads about it.
