  1. Well, this an interesting turn

    Yet nothing will change.
  2. My senior Project

    Well, I hope you spell check your project better than your post.
  3. HD-Day

    The zone thing is likely a major reason so many studios didn't want to go HD, especially Disney, inventor of the "vault" to artificially increase sales of their films. I bought 2 separate players because it was cheaper than a combo and the combos weren't rated as highly. I had the minimal space needed to put it in the cabinet.
  4. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

    True, true...
  5. Inline VS Radial

    Take away the plane and the radial is the better weapon. It's bigger and heavier and will cause more damage on impact.
  6. Expect FE with a slight reduction in speed I'd think. The question I've not seen asked: will integration with WOE/WOV require manual work? Or put another way, will there not be an option to merge them into WOI on install?
  7. Forget the pictures...your eyes can deceive you, don't trust them...let go of your conscious self and act on instinct...use the Force...
  8. I hope he didn't abandon the B-70 totally, though!
  9. Of course he's serious. And don't call him Shirley.
  10. maybe you already had this discussion...

    Actually, TMP was TOO MUCH classic Trek...it was The Changeling! However, it also was supposed to be the pilot for a new ST series. When Star Wars hit it big and everyone jumped on the "me too" wagon, Paramount REdiscovered Star Trek and the film series began. Remember, though, that they knew TMP wasn't great. That's why Nimoy asked to be written out at the end of ST2. Of course, the film was done so well (it's listed as "the ST film liked by those who aren't ST fans") that Nimoy wanted back in, so Meyer refused to write/direct ST3 because he hated that idea. I just lament the waste that was ST5. That was a deal they should not have made with Shatner.
  11. They've started filming it already: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0970416/ "Say 'Gort...Keanu...whoa...'" Blade Runner was an adaptation of Dick's Androids novel, any remake would be VERY different. As for Rama: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0134933/ That won't be till next year though, apparently. Not sure how the strike might have affected either of these, though. I think Clarke's "Childhood's End" would have been a great film, but "V" and "Independence Day" have kind of ruined that. I love Asimov's Foundation series, but I can't see it made into a film easily. The Robot novels, however, hold some promise. "Caves of Steel" would be a great film, and then there are 3 sequel books to follow.
  12. Sins of a Solar Empire

    I know a couple people with this game, but I don't have it yet. I'm waiting for the demo, which apparently is coming out in March sometime. I've heard it's sort of like the space combat/campaign side of Empire at War without the storyline. I enjoy EaW, but it is getting old now so if this is really the next step in that way I'm interested.
  13. Sins of a Solar Empire

    Yeah, I know a couple of guys who've been playing it semi-obsessively since release. They have over 30 hrs in it already and these guys barely spend any time on their PC in the first place! Well, I'll definitely try out the demo when it comes out, but I'm not going to buy sight unseen.
  14. Babylon 5

    That's not the same as the "I Found Her" game, is it? I tried playing IFH and it's HARD fighting with those kinds of flight physics.
  15. HD-Day

    I bought one of each, but I was smart about it and only paid $200 for my HD player and only have a few movies right now (although I'm waiting for my 5 free...Toshiba better still send me those!). I paid $450 for the Bluray player, the first 1.1 released by Panasonic back in December. It's not 2.0, but I don't care about that. I'm not going to be hooking up my players to the internet any time in the future, the wiring is a PITA. They can put a wireless adapter in there if it's so important. My HD player DOES have an ethernet port on it, but it's not connected.
  16. World in Conflict

    Ah, so it was just the .exe that was time limited. I have that myself lying around somewhere, came with a copy of PC Gamer one month. The game itself was just too much of a clickfest for me. I like my combat to ebb and flow, not BE IN YOUR FACE EVERY MINUTE FROM THE WORD GO!
  17. You have to wonder what the procedure is for this? When the top says "do it, with no money!" and the bottom says "without money, we can't!", who has to give? You can't make a dead horse fly... Maybe they need to cut back on what they want the USAF to do...
  18. Didn't the B get a new name? I can't remember...
  19. Depends on definition of "replace". The F-16 can do the mission but not to the same degree. It has shorter range, less combat endurance, and the radar isn't as powerful.
  20. I can't remember which Mirages they have!
  21. It's probably out in a bush somewhere unseen.
  22. Yet another country to join the F-16 club...if only GD had any idea when they won that competition over 30 years ago...
  23. Holy crap! Castro quit!

    I'm wondering how many of the millions of Cubans in S Florida will ever move back?
  24. Inline VS Radial

    While you can argue it either way, the fact remains that the answer is radial. Inlines are ill-suited to combat damage, and since that's what they always take, why bet your life on it?
  25. Who is actual aircrew?

    I'm too cheap to get a license, so I'll just stick with being a passenger...however the airports have taken all the joy out of that. As have the airlines. So I don't fly much!
