  1. Roy, there is one glaring flaw in your "pickle" analogy. If M7 was truly like having pickles on your burger, there would be some rabid "pickle fans" who would jump out of the bushes the moment you expressed your disdain for said pickles, and loudly preach their "tastiness" to you. At first you'd politely comment that they are free to put pickles on their own burgers but that you personally didn't want any. This would only incite them to louder and more grating displays of pickle fandom, such as shouting "Taste my kosher!" or simply "Dill!" until you had to physically harm them.

    Very true for example keith is a huge pickle eater ;) Like i said eariler mac 7 is polarized.

    Very true unspacy had that dark evil look to it from the upper brass giving out wierd orders for the troops to follow. sound force in vf-11s? did they not watched the heavily recycled footage of the same 3 or 4 vf-11s get killed through out the series while adding an extra frame for the next time they reuse it.

  2. Agent One is that you in disguise after suffering a some brain damage?

    I too heard that Macross 7 was in part a parody of a mecha series.  I think Kawamori said that somewhere.  Macross 7 is good and entertaining problem is with some people is their expectations.

    I don't think so. he didn't say anything about encourages weakness in children.

    only prob with macross 7 it is so polarized that you just either hate it or like it and very little room inbetween.

    B-2's AND carriers?  What could be cooler?

    PS---sheer coincidence that a USAF strategic stealth bomber group met up with 3 carrier battle groups (half the Pacific fleet) near North Korea this week.

    Will it matter? They're fighting the next war in Cyberspace, apparently! :p

    look out they are using an aimbot and wall hacks :p

  4. Just curious - for all of those stating that Insurrection, Nemesis, and other ST films are no good, have any of you seen ST 5: The Final Frontier?

    408896[/snapback]

    I didn't think it was that bad. Aside from the fact that god wanted to steal the Enterprise.

    And Eugimon, no, the Voyage Home didn't entertain me even a little.

    what season of deepspace nine is the trials and tribbleations episode featured in?

    I don't want to rent all the seasons just the one with the episode in it.

    5

    photon > god :lol:

    I like nemesis except the begining and the end, they always overloading phasers and data just what like shot at the generator point blank.

  5. Sony insinuated that the PS2 would be able to produce graphics on the same level as the Final Fantasy movie. If that's not misleading, I don't know what is. Faked demos on beefed up hardware come to mind. FMV passed off as in-game footage. Sony has a reputation these days.

    Bah, Microsoft (or any other company)is no better...Gates said "Toy Story 2 Level detail " and unlimited graphical visuals before the XBox launch (commonly an urban myth as Sony's quotes by Microsoft fans):

    Toy Story quality graphics

    "We're approaching the level of detail seen in Toy Story 2," he said, referring to the computer-generated kids film from Disney/Pixar.

    "Game developers will finally be able to develop games as they can visualize it in their minds, without having restrictions placed on them due to performance."

    Sound familar each generation?

    I never bought into the PS2 boasting at launch (anyone that owned a Dreamcast were playing stronger games at launch than PS2 games. Take any graphics boasting with a grain of salt. If they achieve it be happy.

    E3 '05...all 3 made boasts and ahem...weird statements...PS3= awesome visuals...360= backwards compatibilty with best selling XBox titles and non gamers will buy 360 so they can sell stuff they designed to gamers on Live (why would a non gamer buy a game system?) Nintendo= Graphics on Rev will make you say "Wow".

    One year later E3' 06

    Yes, Wii's controller is innovative but, graphically the Wii games look exactly like Gamecube titles (Which would explain why Zelda is being released day and date for both). Wii= impressive controller that will be a hot new fad...cool but not sure if it will truly win over the people in sustaining power after a couple years (Only Nintendo could sell you basically a Gamecube 1.5 with a new controller and get away with praise..if MS or Sony did that with a PS2 or XBox, people would say it's just a gimmick).

    MS= Umm...I guess they showed Halo 3 so all's well in 360 owner land

    Sony= Shocks the world with price and sell your sister financing on PS3. Heavenly Sword demonstration indistinguishable from last year's trailer...but they don't even touch on it much..in fact their press conference was boring as hell).

    These reputations are taken to the nth level on the internet...all companies make absurd claims.

    All of them.

    Nintendo is the most kiddie friendly company in the world it would seem but behind the curtains, they have done a lot of nasty things in the industry (16 bit wars cough...cough). MS does the same, and Sony...welll just does some really stupid things sometimes. Take it all with a grain of salt but I think the "sony lies and your in PS2 is really a bomb waiting to go off so you have to buy a new one"!!! or "MS is the devil incarnate evil"!!! things you hear online is mostly exagerrated fanboy ranting.

    And to make one last point: did anyone really think the PS2, Xbox, or whatever have you would produce the level of details in a demo from everyday games? A couple might. The power might be there...real world usage always dictates a drop in highest specs.

    Ever had once a year car wax actually stay on for a year (sprayed with water 52 times in a day long test does not equal one year in the real world) ? My search gloves are "sharps proof" including needles...for about 2 months. Cell phone batteries talk time....any battery operated device's operating time (always at the lowest power setting doing nothing so CE companies can give the highest number available). Ever get a Big Mac that looks like one on TV? :D

    Just smile and play the games you like. ;) These reputations mean nothing to the mass market.

    huge differernce between FF and toystory 2. If billy gates said be like that monster one where they had to render lots of hair and fur then I would belive you.

  6. That picture just screams hentai.

    Underage school girls = porn?

    You perv.

    405164[/snapback]

    Heh you don't need to watch hentai to know whats going to happen here. :p

    Wonder if the next shot has gannon or bowser showing up with tenticals popping out ;)

  7. If there's one thing I've learned about fan-made comics on Macross World. It's that they're not funny. Not a single one.

    What about Agent One's image of Graham out killing hobos, that was pretty funny. There were a few funny images in the "great moments in Anime done in MSPaint" thread too.

    Can you post a link to the A1 image of Graham wasting hobos? I've been trying the search function, but have given up after just scrolling through one of the hits that was a 37 pager.
