No good. The 360 doesn't like all that "open ended" stuff

I haven't heard any real griping. In all honesty, the joysticks for the Ace Combat games add tremendously to the "feel," but I'm not sure they make you into a "better" pilot than you would be with a controller. For those of us who started on PC flight games, it makes the transition a lot...

I can appreciate that AC6's stick is a tad on the elaborate side (and some of us have the stick for that AND the AC5 bundle for the PS2). That said, it'd be nice if those of us WITH that bundle wouldn't be forced to buy ANOTHER bundled stick. The AC6 stick doesn't require the throttle to be...

I'll also point out... as several others have, that the Ace Combat series has been successful with their joystick pack-ins. The game does not REQUIRE a joystick to play, but for an extra price, you can get one *with* it that works with your console and really adds to the experience...

My grandfather owned Wing Commander I, and when he broke his PC (a frequent occurrence), he left it with my father to be fixed. After a few days, my dad had fixed up the machine, and installed Wing Commander to test if the joystick worked. I played that game every chance I got until my...

I'm not entirely sure that's correct. T3's version of SkyNET has no system core whatsoever, and SkyNET is billed as a program that the Defense Department is using on it's systems. Thus, SkyNET creates the virus and uses it to spread itself- the program- throughout the world, thus ensuring...

Yes, John Connor's age was one of those long-running plot problems that T3 made *worse.* ::headdesk:: Actually, throughout the movie, it is not so subtly hinted that some form of megavirus is spreading throughout computers around the world, and this is SkyNET propagating itself to various...

Absolutely correct, but in the case of those listed, they are actually considered continuity. ETM is well known, 24 is the "official" version of events between seasons 2 and 3, X-Files is a "collection of episodes" taking place at undisclosed times during a certain season. I'm not entirely...

Well, I'm glad I'm not alone in my thoughts, at least. Interestingly, I had never considered the T1/T3 connection before, I had always viewed T1 as part of a story with T2, so the alteration of its message was natural. OK, since I'm now a tad confused, let's run down the list... -T-800...

By the way, and no insult meant here, but I find this comment absolutely hilarious on a Wing Commander fan board. :)

This might strike you as bizarre, but I understand the concept of a paradox fully. Bizarrely enough, for about ten years, the Terminator franchise was left with a paradox of sorts as its ending, and no one complained, because it was the conceit of the movie. It was, as the poster below you...

Sorry for the double post, but this should add to the discussion... While looking up some information on the series, since I haven't heard much of it until now, I found this quote from an article about the panel at Comic-Con. "Producer James Middleton noted he’d worked on Terminator 3, and...

A fair response. Though I would argue that having to "face" one's destiny does not necessarily imply that one cannot *alter* their destiny. Most of the first film's "message" is delivered through a man who has, arguably, been quite jaded by war. I don't think he *can* see it any other way...

See, I have to throw in with the "dissatisfied with T3" crowd. While it admittedly was a fun action movie, and I'm *always* one for fun action movies, it felt unnecessary, and ultimately damaged Terminator 2 heavily. Where the point of T2 was that we can determine the future through our...

Wait... Do you mean the "Bandit" listed in the Rapier II Blade description?

Y'know, I failed to think of all the stuff I've seen on those UNO cameras, and of course, bandwidth is an issue too, good points. I suppose its more a pipe dream than a request. :)

Well, damn. My apartment complex utilizes one big internet connection. I don't really have access to it. Looks like I'm SOL until I move in October...

Y'know... I'm loving Arena, I am.... but this talk of "comm videos" has me thinking. Wouldn't it have been cool if the x-box live vision camera could've been implemented somehow? I suppose it would take one "out of the experience" if suddenly your wingman was revealed to be wearing a t-shirt...

A-whoo-hoo! I'm getting all my papers done immediately. It's about danged time. Best news I've had all day.

Am I the only one who absolutely loves the gag about the name of the Tiger's Claw/Tiger Claw on page two?
