  1. I only played solo, but I've heard tales of how hilarious Jedi Knight multiplayer was. Because if you had a lightsaber out, you HAD A LIGHTSABER OUT. Collision detection on the blade was always active, so you could rush someone just standing there doing nothing, walk into his blade, and get murderized by someone who was actually AFK.
  2. Well, hopefully the alternate mold parts make for a really good Monstructor to offset the really bad Dinobots.
  3. It didn't read as any sort of disgruntlement, perhaps aside from "yes, I was director on Macross Plus, but really Kawamori was". And even that was tempered, with it being clear it wasn't because Kawamori was particularly antagonistic, just very enthusiastic and involved. I suspect it would be hard for one anime director to begrudge another for just wanting to make cartoons instead of overseeing them.
  4. I think that head looks less like Megatron and more like Kup.
  5. Wait, seriously? I'm surprised they tried, and disappointed nobody told me.
  6. See, my line of thought is when a human enters the mainframe, they are fully digitized, gaining the appearance and traits of a program. For all intents and purposes, they ARE a program. When they leave and are de-digitized, they are reconstructed as normal humans. This implies that a program would be analoged and reconstructed as a normal human in normal human clothes(thank goodness they won't show up stark naked). If they bring The Grid with them and digitize the world... well, that's still a win since it implies everyone gets to have cool Tron powers! But it does raise the severity of the "Rinzler's a jerkface" problem.
  7. Based on all canon evidence available, it would likely end with Max proposing to Isamu.
  8. That would end poorly for the invaders, when their superpowers and rayguns meet real-world physics and they're suddenly and unexpectedly just a bunch of dudes in LARP gear. It kinda ruined Legacy when I realized the easiest solution to their problem was just "let Rinzler win". He portals out of cyberspace and becomes a wet sack of meat and bone. He ain't conquerin' the world like that.
  9. I'd love to see the sales pitch there. "Hey, boss! This new system makes us virtually invisible to radar and lidar. It's almost a perfect stealth system..." "But?" "It makes the fighter glow in the dark like a giant lightbulb? No one uses visual sensors, right?"
  10. I thought the PS5 was close to 100% back-compatible?
  11. I don't know who would win, aside from the audience.
  12. "Pretty much empty" is typical here. My Targets finally got rid of Coronation Starscream. I don't know how, because they clearly weren't selling that shelf-load.
  13. My Target restocked the Transformers section after the holiday devastation. It now looks almost exactly like it did before. Bunch of Blitzwings, bunch of Jhiaxzus or however it's spelled, handful of Reaction figures(all G2 Grimlock dinosaur mode), a bunch of empty pegs, and a bunch of comic and Power Ranger toys hanging on pegs tagged as containing Transformers. Notably, the Cyberverse stuff has all been replaced with Earthspark stuff. Almost. One peg ful of Cyberverse still. ... And a single lonely Pointblank. I kinda like the radiators on the elbows, even if they're in the way. Makes him look like he has integral weapons. Yes, yes, that's not canon, I know. But it's COOL. Obvious signs of the simplification from the original concept sitting around, though. Most notable Peacemaker having a peg on his ass that would let him peg into a wrist like the japanese cartoon.... if Pointblank's wrists could fold in.
  14. Wait a second, wait a second... Before being rebuilt as the Megaroad, the SDF-2 wasn't intended as a colony ship, right? It was meant as another warship? Then why the heck was it being built even bigger than the Macross, which was already so ludicrously oversized they had enough empty space to build a full training camp and functioning city inside it?!
