Re: Death Star and the Eclipse SSD

The Galaxy Gun missile must have used some kind of trick to get through planetary shields, since it appears to simply pass through them. Once a countermeasure is developed against that (which seems inevitable, otherwise every starship in the fleet would eventually have this trick fitted to it), the...

Re: Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor discussion thread

It's Matt fucking Stover. Didn't he write Shatterpoint? If so, pass. Yes he did. That novel was horrible. Now that I remember, he wrote the EIII novel too. Holy shit did make a mess of it too. Then he shoe horned his damn Vapaad technique into the whole Windu/Sidious battle. So what is this new one...

Re: Clone Wars series (SPOILERS)

Latest episode was pretty good - somehow the Consular -class cruiser/ Republic frigate (the ship at the start of TPM, but with guns on) goes to hyperspace and it's nowhere close to 6 planetary diameters away from the planet - it's apparently in the upper atmosphere. We also see two new kinds of Dro...

Re: Clone Wars series (SPOILERS)

I've been thoroughly enjoying the series. I go in there expecting a half hour adventure in the Star Wars universe. I'm just in the mindset that Anakin and Grevious never actually meet until the bridge encounter in RotS.

Re: Clone Wars series (SPOILERS)

Call me crazy, but I loved the Nebulae scene. It gave everyone something to fly around and maneuver about so it wasn't just a straight shot. Plus it gave us some large space creatures. What was there NOT to love about that!

Re: What is the greatest '80s movie?

Well, I hold all Star Wars movies above everything else. They're not even in the same low end classification as 'movies'. It also isn't fair to consider Indiana Jones. So I will go with 'The Wizard' starring Fred Savage.

The HoloNet news wasn't too bad. It was interesting to hear. Of course the whole 8,12,17 is bullshit and I'm sure it was thrown in there to make light of everything. I cant' wait to see tonight's episode.

Re: Discussion of Force Unleashed storyline (Spoilers Duh...)

Just a run down, I'm almost finished with the DS version of TFU. The story pretty much follows the 360 version. I finally ran into a few differences. *Spoiler* On Imperial Raxus Prime the core computer is 'sliced' by the Empire to move scrap metal into the canon. The computer essential takes control...

Sporadically at best. I've got like three guns now, all the basic Pirahna/Tipman style. The only place I've got to go is just outside the city, and it's hard to get a schedule coordinated with friends.

There's a bigger issue here and it's with the rural South in general. People live a slower, simpler lifestyle down there.
