Should be able to. The PS2 was designed from the beginning to be 100% backwards-compatible. It should work with all PS1 controllers, including esoteric stuff like the Negcon. I can't imagine a situation where an original digital pad would cause problems.

There was a GameBoy Color one, if you want to count that.

Last time on video. I read that to mean VHS tapes. I find that very hard to believe. Especially since the work should've all been done on computer. Dunno. I THINK that there was active solicitation of special features ideas for the DVDs on the StarWars.com forums(may've been a fan-created thread). I KNOW "Han shoots first" was by far the most requested feature. As in like 75%. If I'd been there more than a week, I might could offer more detail.

Id say correction since he wares em in the cockpit. Maybe he wants to look cool? They're blue-tinted too, after all... You can get tinted optical glasses. that's what i have, they're tinted blue too! Yes, but what color is your hair?

But that's where you're wrong. They did the remaster BEFORE they did the SE edits. I own an original edition remaster box set. The box for that release looks like this, if you want to scrounge one up at a used video store... That's the first movie. The style of the other 2 is similar(Empire features a stormtrooper helmet and the walkers attacking Hoth, and Yoda, and Jedi features Yoda and the Luke/Vader lightsaber duel. All 3 boxes are black.). And just so there's no confusion, it says on the side of the trilogy box that it was digitally remastered, as well as along the bottom of each of the 3 individual tapes. Personally, I am of the opinion that the DVDs will likely have both versions on one disk, because it's well within the technical capabilities of the media and because inclusion of hte original version is a highly-requested feature.

They DID sell it in the US, but it was never very popular(I saw ONE for sale once). It was discontinued in favor of the Dual Analog gamepads, which were in turn discontinued for the Dual Shock, which succeeded by virtue of being a pack-in controller.

Never mind...

It's cuz he combed it. The unkempt spikey look is required for immortality.

*twitch* Why would you want THaT piece of crap?

Only the character designer is more accurate than even the character designer.

What about a 1S CF with GPB armor? MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Yah. But a larger cartridge means more room for tape. Beta had less room to stuff tape into, and being higher-resolution, they used what they did have faster.

Yes, the mine energist episode was #8, but there was no regult, although Escaflowne was done by Kawamori. It was just a work melef. Look at it closer. You can't see it when Van's smashing it, but when it's working in the background it's fairly obvious. They glued a pair of arms to a Regult and painted it gold.

Heh. ... That's a good way to make sports more exciting, though.

Because George Lucas put Club Obi-Wan into Temple of Doom.

Beta is the OTHER VCR format. Offering higher image quality in smaller cassetes, it fell to the larger, lower-res VHS anyways. ... I think the big thing that killed it was you could get more time in a VHS tape than a Beta one, but I don't know for sure.

Short answer: not much. Long answer: The J has an extra laser. The S has 3 extra lasers, improved electronics, and slightly more powerful engines. Later models of the VF-1 all have the same hardware as the S, so the S only gets the weapon/engine bonuses. And once you get to the modernized VF-1X series, the VF-1SX(or whatever the proper designation is) has the same engines as all the others(which is better htan the original VF-1S engines). Mainly it's a prestige thing. Only leaders get the J and S models. Source: http://macross.anime.net/mecha/united_nati.../vf1/index.html

Star Trek VS Star Wars.

I still love the no photogaphy sign in that photo.

Subliminal sex messages? I thought that was Disney's job.

There's a Regult pod mining energists in Vision of Escaflowne. The episode with the dragon graveyard. I think it's # 8.

u know, Roy was sporting a full and kinda longish hair. he died, too. But it wasn't spikey. It was too well-groomed. He should've taken Hikaru's advie and quit brushing it.

Substitute "LFL" or even "Lucas" for "Yamato." Hmm... Well I want to postscript saying that I don't intend this with any acrimony. I really like your stuff and think we're even close politically, from a brief browsing of your site. I just think it's silly for you to be so vehement against the newer SW stuff. So no hard feelings. Hehe. . . I was waiting for someone to bring this up. Look, we just fundamentally disagree here. But I would like to point out some differences: These toys people are upset about not having have never existed. Star Wars was Star Wars. It existed in a finished state for twenty years. Because Lucas has announced that it will not ever be released as it once was on modern media, he is essentially confiscating the original movie and witholding it from our posterity. How will my kids watch it? How will they buy it? I'm not sure why you consider this so hysterical or nonsensical. It makes certain sense to me. We won't have VCRs in twenty years. . . much less laserdisc players. And even if we did, the media would have deteriorated and the quality would be so poor (even beyond how bad they look now compared to DVD), that I doubt anyone would suffer through them. Well, I know someone who just watched Star Wars for the first time a week ago. He downloaded the originals off Kazaa. None of this Greedo shot first crap for him.

And what would she have thought of the nearly static dogfights at the end of the original ANH? Or the landspeeder with the obvious smear of vaseline to mimic the hover effect? And while we're at it, how did she like the stop-motion walkers and chess pieces, the see-thru snowspeeder shots and the many poorly composited bluescreen shots in Jedi? It's funny how Tarantino can intentionally use as bad a model shot as is possible (the 747 flyby in Kill Bill) and get nothing but delerious praise, but ILM gets absolutely lambasted when it strives for realism at the limits of SFX technology. Diffrence: Greedo's gun had to be pointed at, say, the guy 3 tables over, to miss Han at that distance. It just wasn't POSSIBLE for him to miss in the location he was in. ... Not to mention that there wasn't time between the line and Han's shot for him to be reacting to Greedo anyways, it just served to emphasize that Greedo WOUILD have kileld Han, which was never in doubt anyways. And it DID look ugly. The other stuff varies greatly. I actually LIKED the Jabba the Hutt scene. On the other hand, there's no good reason for the Death Star to have a ring in its explosion.
