No doubt here. KOTOR2 was shaping up to be even better...and then you get to last 1/3 of the game.

33 was good, but I think Exodus Pt 2 takes the cake.

I think Starbuck is my favorite character just because she's so wildly unpredictable. Least favorite was Cat.

There's also a hotfix for AGP card owners.

The problem is Congress can't keep its mouth shut. You can't tell the Japanese and Aussies you're giving them the full version because Congress will whine. If you tell Congress "Shh, keep it on the DL, but it's a downgraded export version", well...they'll blab in public in less time than you can say "blowhard" and then it's all over.

Heh, well the last 5 minutes of it anyway. I live on the mainland. Of course, there are the unpleasant times as well. The road was shut down after 9/11 for over 6 months. Another time I hit a seagull in flight on the way to work. SMACK into my headlight...

That F2 looks like a simple evolution of the F1. As for the 4000, of course that would be a heavy fighter. It would have had 2 of the same engine the 2000 had, just like the F-15 had 2 of the same engine the F-16 had. :)

Well, the F-2 is better than the F-16...but not THAT much. On the other hand, they've never built a stealth plane before...

You're thinking of the game, I was speaking of the series.

On the plus side, I work at the beach. That's the Atlantic Ocean on the right, Banana River on the left.

I started on my Atari 400 with B-1 Nuclear Bomber...circa 1983?? Then we got the Atari 800 and I got FS2 with its WWI combat side game. First PC sim was Gunship in 1988, first jet was F-19 Stealth Fighter in 1989. I've been flying at varying rates (a lot more in the 90s than recently) for 25 years now on my PCs. I average maybe 20 hrs/week on my PC, but not always flying. In fact some weeks I don't fly at all, but race or FPS or RTS or whatever instead. So, make up a number and maybe it's correct. Just as good as any I'd make!

Could be. I'd have to see it again to figure it out, and I already dumped it off my DVR. When the DVDs come out I guess!

Forgetting the perhaps intractable problem of the canards deflecting for landing, I think the four trailing edge surfaces work pretty much standard for a delta--inboard are elevators/flaps, outboard are elevons, likely with droop for extra lift (ie operate as flaps with less deflection on landing). The Gripen is relatively small and I think the elevons outboard would provide quite a bit of roll control. I haven't seen any evidence of differential movement in the canards for roll like most stabilators do nowadays...in fact, I think most canards on all planes are linked together and move as one.

It's got an Su-30-like cockpit. However, building a plane shaped like that is one thing. Getting the performance and stealth of the F-22 is another.

Nope. Big gap in time, not sure if the B5 company is still around even.

Here's a good picture: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=28....p;z=14&om=1

"Boundless incompetence"--what an ad slogan!

What Terminator was sent with no skin? I didn't see one. As for the time machine, it was destroyed in the explosion when the machine activated. Then, coincidentally, 8 years later a construction crew went to work where the bank was when the vault was destroyed and finds the head. Odd that Terminator heads work via WiFi.

Um...I'm surprised they allowed it! Darth Wanker perhaps?

I never read any of Watson's books, but I had to draw a line somewhere...I'm running out of space! The guy who wrote PoD (and the new Rule of Two I've yet to read, but it's on my shelf!) is the guy behind the Knights of the Old Republic RPGs, which had AWESOME stories, even though KOTOR2 got cut short by LA's insistence on releasing it just one year after KOTOR in time for Xmas. :(

...yes? I have ET:QW and think it's great fun, as I like the idea of playing 3 linked maps and unlocking upgrades as you go only to reset again at the end. I do NOT like the BF2-derived idea of "unlocks" for playing a lot. The people that play a lot aren't the ones that need the better equipment!!

Ok...to me Bleach was Nirvana's first album, which had songs like "About a Girl".

Oh, I've only read...all of them. Well, with the exception of the young adults/childrens books, of which I read like 3 or 4 total over the past 15 years. Of course, some are better than others, but you can bet the Zahn ones will rock!

I think the big surprise is how well the cast they got works considering how many are unknowns and some (#6) had never had a speaking acting role before!

B5 did space combat in a similar manner, but it had less budget and lower tech at the time so it didn't look as good.
