In addition to my previously listed items... Radiata Stories. Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter. A Galaxian t-shirt. 10$ giftcard for MalWart. And I thought I was late with Dragon Quarter... I've had all 4 of those PS1 titles for years. All good choices, of course. I strongly recommend leading with VP. tri-Ace is God. And because I got a toy, I have to play... "You WILL reveal the location of the autobot base. One way or another."

The final tally is: A Sempron 2800+ with a GB of RAM and a 120GB hard drive. Transformers Alternator Shockwave, I mean Blast. Radiata Stories. Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter. A humorous Galaxian t-shirt. A 10$ MalWart gift certificate.

How about "Protoculture is not a battery in Macross"? Or "the invid did not attack in Macross"(in point of fact, the MOSPEADA portion of Robotech takes place at the same date as Macross Plus)? You're confusing publisher with owner. A far too common mistake. HG licensed ADV to do the DVD releases of Robotech, MOSPEADA, Southern Cross, and the reissue of Macross. Animeigo had the FIRST Macross license from HG, but HG refused to renew it. No. Macross 2 is the only alternate universe Macross product, though many people dislike Macross 7(it's a very super-robot style program, and as you know, most other Macross productions feature a more military style on both the mecha and characters). The movie Do You Remember Love is SORT OF alternate. Officially, it's a movie created within the Macross universe, similar to the real-world Pearl Harbor film. It's not an accurate portrayal of Space War 1, but it IS part of the main timeline. Robotech's an alternate universe as well, but it's not Macross.

We've seen them all. Along with Macross 7, for better or worse. And you're confused. Macross and Robotech are diffrent products, in diffrent universes. Harmony Gold uses Macross footage for the first half of Robotech(followed by Southern Cross and MOSPEADA), but it's not Macross. Or even anime, IMO. IT's an american production that uses several anime programs to provide the visuals and portions of the plot outline. They won't resurrect it because Sentinels is, by most counts, a horrid piece of work. They've written a new story called Shadow Chronicles to take its place. By most counts it is less horrid. Likely never. Aside from a large portion of the Eva and Akira camp requiring shiny visuals to watch the program, HG lacks the marketing skill needed to resurrect their cash cow. Also: file me in the "Eva and Akira are way overrated" camp.

Works here. Nifty little clip.

I've already gotten a Sempron 2800, motherboard, hard drive, case, and gig o' RAM. Needed to assemble and test everything before the processor return period expired. Tomorrow I'm gonna get an Alternator Shockwave(I like Shockwave, and I don't have any Alternators yet, for some reason), and some question marks.

Most of the people on the internet ARE morons though. Hell, most of the peopel in the world are. We DO seem to have a relatively low percentage here, though.

Ditto. I would like to take this moment to point out that our very own MacrossWorld has a similar nifty image attachment feature. Even better, because you don't have to be a member of another board to view the attachment.

ACTUALLY, HE FELT THE HEAT COMING..WHAT BETTER WAY TO PARDON YOURSELF THAN BEING PRESIDENT. HE HA SBEEN UNDER ATTACK FROM OTHER PARTY'S AGAINST HIM. SO THIS ATTACK IS NOTHING NEW FOR HIM, OR HIS "FRIENDS". NOTHING NEW THAN POLITICAL ALIGATIONS. SAME THAT GOES HERE IN U.S WITH CURRENT PRESIDENT...... EX: MEMOGATE, SKIPPING SERVICE, LEFTIS NEWS AND SO ON. 354390[/snapback] Whoa, US politics cropped up. I can feel the flames already.

That or Basbelfish is providing it's usual LSD-induced engrish.

BUMBLEBEE! BUMBLEBEE! BUMBLE-FRICKIN'-BEE! ... Ummm, Shockwave'd be nice too.

Do those juggles work? I don't remember Scorpion able to throw his harpoon upwards diagonally. 354482[/snapback] *shrugs* The only juggle I ever learned was MK1's "uppercut in a corner, weak punch as fast as possible" move. Cheapest victory ever. And if you were playing 2-player, you deserved every bruise you got while doing it.

Damm, that's a lot of work. Yeah, but Scorpion used the cheap MK juggles. Ryu's just lucky he didn't get caught in a corner. WEAK PUNCH INFINITE JUGGLE!

Y'all are great, except for the tiny problem of Y chromosomes.

All seconded. Except I'd rather shoot tiny metal balls from my overglorified toys than yellow foam balls. I'm old-fashioned that way.

99.9% of that is in game animation/graphics, if you notice, the hug part is part of Sakura's grapple and Ryu grapple moves, the frames were edit to make make it "sync". very impressive. very time consuming 354007[/snapback] Can't you just use the sprites from the rom? 354049[/snapback] They undoubtedly DID use sprite rips(though CPS2 ROMs are encrypted, SFAlpha whatever's been cracked for some time). It's still a pain in the butt, though. And they probably had to do some hand-editing of the sprites to make 'em fit right.

6 and 7 rekindle my urge to kill the creators of a certain notably bad pair of "science" terror movies. The thread title itself rekindles my urge to go play Afterlife again.

Some men like small breasts. Personally, I feel that anything more than you can cup in one hand is a waste. It also lets you correct it if you accidentally crank 'em up too far. Past a certain point, they cease being attractive and just become scary, regardless of your tastes. And another congrats.

He did it almost 2 decades ago. And it made him very wealthy(that wealth is what made his current political power possible). He didn't know he was gonna become el presidente.

They were console MK, though, so it was sweat. Shun Goku Satsu! Speaking of moves... I laughed at Sakura's hyper moves.

It's one of my favorites, too. I just wish it was FINISHED.

The best is still the live-action King of Fighters... http://www.youtube.com/watch.php?v=HZM9uuPj8kU http://www.youtube.com/watch.php?v=qXfgiOx-GDY No, I don't know where to get the original videos, though I used to.

Could compromise. I've got a Red Ryder BB gun from when I was little. Not the most powerful firearm ever made by any means, but for knocking some holes in paper it's reasonably useful. Could get a more powerful airgun for more paper-murdering fun. Yeah, but imagine how much easier home improvement products would be if you didn't ahve to deal with all those saws...

"Coming after"? Do you mean point out valid flaws in an otherwise decent game? If so, then by saying "disk 2" I have "come after" the game. My review of it at the time was "half of the best game ever." While my tastes have shifted a bit since then, it's still half of an utterly incredible RPG. What apparently happened with disk 2 is that midway through the Xenogears development cycle the budget was halved to free more cash for FF8, making it impossible for the dev team to complete XG. The slideshow was an attempt to finish the story on a shoestring budget so the game could be released(presumably there were originally more FMV cutscenes planned as well, based on the feel of the game).

Calm down there, fanboy, nobody's house got burned down. 353810[/snapback] Are people STUPID? I was saying WHY there was a backlash, not my specific problems with the game. As I said, I think it's a good game. Not a great one, but a good one. And my plot complaints are quite well-grounded given FF7 is a plot-driven game. I don't expect the most epic writing ever. I DO expect coherence. I've got quite a few novels, BTW. I enjoy reading, which is part of why I can be bothered to play an RPG with such a dated gameplay paradigm. I've also got Xenogears, Granda 2, Lunar: Eternal Blue, and a few other games that manage to carry a moderately deep story through to completion instead of leaving most of the plot threads unresolved. Xenogears is particularly notable given A. it's from the same company as FF7, B. it has an absurdly involved story, and C. it was released in a half-completed state. Which raises an interesting question. If Square can take a game that's an order of magnitude more comvoluted than FF7, scrap 50% of the content, and still manage to keep it coherent, than WHAT THE HELL happened with their flagship title?
