Awesome
Makes it sound cool, it's basically fencing, but with some unnecessary dance moves for show.

Looks good, have to agree, it looks more like an Avengers movie centered around Captain America than a sequel. Shoots down the helicarrier* well there goes several trillion dollars

Yea I think they should just put it to rest for now before they ruin the series.

Is he actually comparing the Apple TV to gaming consoles? Ok the Apple TV device is $100, but if you want to play anything on it, you have to get an apple device which will set the total cost above any of the consoles. Gotta love those Apple fan boys, it's not cool until Apple does it, spend $35 on Chrome cast.
Apple has tried the whole gaming console before and it failed miserably.
Bandai manufactured fewer than 100,000 Pippins, but reportedly sold 42,000 systems before discontinuing the line. Production of the system was so limited, there were more keyboard and modem accessories produced than actual systems.
In May 2006, the Pippin placed 22nd in PC World Magazine's list of the "25 Worst Tech Products of All Time."

There's an arcade shoot em up as well. It's just your standard shoot anything that moves arcade game.

Wow... I didn't know they were still making this show
GOOGLE, wow 200 episodes...

I seen this a while ago now, not bad, I like it. My only complaint about is that it didn't have much of a back story at all like the first one did. Pretty much just a straight "shoot em up". Which is fine, just expected more, I'm guessing they left out story for a sequel or trilogy, but I don't think that will happen.

Anyone ever hear of Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen? My girlfriend got it for me for Christmas, she knows i love RPG's Anyway, it's a pretty good one, very in depth and long, I've got probably about a dozen hours in so far with no end in site. Anyway if you have a chance to grab it for cheap, it might be worth checking it out.

I agree with Sledge on this one, RPG's all the way. Normal gameplay/missions, I'm always a fan of shoties

Hey Akira, I'm kinda the same, Every so often I'll check in with the intention of sticking around, but then work picks up, I get busy with other projects/gaming/anime etc. Don't feel bad about all the features, I don't even know half of them and I don't feel like learning the them Guess I'm kind of old school but it's kind of sad since I work in IT. Seriously it's good to see you, you defiantly need an avatar and sig. I was surprised to see mine still on photobucket, haven't used it in years.
Haha, yea that must be it, now if we can just figure out how to get us to stay
Sledgstone reacted to this -
wow... just wow
The construction worker one was pretty good

Yea it is a problem, the only way I can think of would be a magnet, but I don't have any clue if that would even be possible. The debris would probably go right through the magnet. The magnet would probably mess with their instruments and other satellites too, so I guess the plan for now is to just wait and hope they fall back to earth to burn up in the atmosphere.
Even the space station needs thruster to control and maintain it's orbit.
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/274.html
On a side note, I don't know if this is true, (I would imagine it is) but I heard some satellites are equipped with thrusters for dodging and avoiding debris. Pretty interesting stuff, I've always been a big SCI-FI fan and reading up on this stuff kinda fuels that lol
Anyway I think this post has turned into a private conversation so this will be my last post.
Sledgstone reacted to this -
I didn't realize they were sending such large satalites up. The 3D printer could probably also be scailed back since it wouldn't need to print in a huge variety of materials, probably mainly metals.
That's true, they could just be un-maned, that would work.
I'd say the only other potential problem would be keeping it in orbit while it's being made, it would have to be moved around as it was being made to maintain it's orbit. Which mean maneuvering thrusters etc, would be needed to keep it "afloat". A project like this could cost billions, but once everything was set up, they'd just have to launch rockets for materials, assuming it's fully un-maned.
Just thought of one more thing, I seen a show years ago about space debry. They said that it is very dangerous to everything in orbit. Which is why astronauts don't spend much time outside the space station. That could also be a concern and could potentially ruin the project. It may not be such a problem anymore, they said on the show that they were going to try and clean it up and this shows was on TV years ago. Just something else to think about lol
EDIT:
Found this http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/news/orbital_debris.html#.UnjyrnBnFiY It's interesting stuff. 500,000 pieces of debris and traveling up to 17,500mph, that's impressive. With all the debris, the larger the structure, the larger the threat.
You'd think the pieces would eventually burn up in the atmosphere, but I guess the earths orbit keeps them up there.
On Feb. 10, 2009, a defunct Russian satellite collided with and destroyed a functioning U.S. Iridium commercial satellite. The collision added more than 2,000 pieces of trackable debris to the inventory of space junk.
China's 2007 anti-satellite test, which used a missile to destroy an old weather satellite, added more than 3,000 pieces to the debris problem.
The China thing was a stupid idea, that stuff needs to be brought down with shuttles or broken up and burned up in the atmosphere.

That's the only way to get anywhere with space travel. The ships that would be required for space travel would be way too large to take off from the surface. I don't think this tech is quite there yet. Don't get me wrong, the printers are there, there's a place near me that has one that the military uses. I went to see it for work, couldn't see it, classified BS, but he said most 3D printers, once it prints something, you have to file off the imperfections. However with the one they have, he said it's ready for use as soon as it comes out, nothing it wasted and it can print in almost any material, metals included. Pretty cool stuff, too bad I couldn't see it. Anyway he said it was a massive machine, had to be to be able to print in so many materials. So I think it would be difficult to get one to space, but not impossible, but I don't think the robots are quite there yet. I mean does NASA even have any robots that can make repairs unattended? Give it a 3D printer, if it messes up, it could be life or death, just like those cars that can brake on it's own, very dangerous if the computer malfunctions.

Hmm, you have some interesting ideas there, but I doubt they'd do the civil war things so early, they'll prob wait too get a couple more avenger movies first if anything. Very interesting though, I'd like to see a civil war, but I've always wanted to see a civil war in the X-men universe lol one of my favorite episodes is when master mold send those two mutants back in time to kill professor X and changes history. Then when Bishop goes back, it's all out war between humans and mutants and Magneto is the general/leader lol

They probably will have them fixed in about 6 months, but if you buy on launch and have a hardware problem, your either screwed or have to wait a month or two to get it back from Microsoft
I remember getting a Super NES a couple days after launch.. a friend of mine got it on launch day and called me to rub it in..
Friend: "Hi... huh?... oh... yeah..." *acting busy and preoccupied even though he called me* "Guess what I'm playing?"
*the volume turns up with sounds of mario jumping in the background and spinning his cape*
Me: "I hate you."
Awesome
My brother got a Wii U and plays "classic Mario" on it, told him to give me the Wii U and he can use the NES that's in the basement lol
Yea I agree, it was either a bunch of 5 year old's or a bunch of adults arguing about something stupid like which superhero could beat who in a fight
Sledgstone reacted to this -
I thought it was a pretty good movie.
The last fight with all 47 armors was pretty sweet.
I also thought it was strange that he destroyed the armor. the fact that he destroyed all the armor for pepper and didn't rebuild his house leads me to believe that he's done with the super hero business (and how long can they keep the iron man series going before it gets stale?)
I had a thought that maybe they will replace iron man with a new avenger. The comic books had many, many different avengers, but he is a loved character so it's hard to say.
Sledgstone reacted to this -
I like the end of it, the guy is the only one still sitting and the Roman dude is just kinda like get up and run lol

Yea, I've always said they needed to take 10 to 20 years off and develop technology, I mean look how old the shuttles were. The shuttle Endeavour was built in 1991, most people don't even have cars that old. Granted the shuttles are way more expensive and should last longer, but look at the punishment they take every time they launch.
Doesn't look like they took much time off lol
-
Wow I know so many people that would be flipping for joy over a Beetlejuice 2. I'd watch it, but I wasn't a huge fan of the original one.
-
Yea I agree, every time they went into space they used 500,000 gallons. I think it would be cool and more efficient if they used a type of rail gun system like in Blue Gender.

It doesn't mater if there were rivers on Mars. Don't get me wrong, I think it would be awsome to start a colony lol but the problem is we can't safely get there.
Are we there yet?
Problem: Trip time.
A round-trip human expedition to Mars, using current technology, could take two to three years. The slower you go, the more supplies you are forced to take and the higher the odds of a catastrophic collision with a meteoroid. Astronauts would lose more muscle and bone mass as a result of the longer stay in microgravity. And they would be exposed to larger doses of cosmic rays and solar energetic particles, increasing the probability of cancer.
But I suppose finding water would be a start, but also while they spend Millions on Mars and other space programs, the economy takes longer to recover and the government shutdown didn't exactly help that either.

Agreed meatbag lol
Sledge, I can't believe you've never played KOTOR before!! It's the best Star Wars game ever and has the best twist in it.
This is one of my favorate games of all time, The second one was good too, but Bioware hit this one out of the park. I forget who made the second one, but it wasn't as good. Now I want to play KOTOR lol
Fishy fishy, you run fast, you'll be fast food
My strategy (for the end of the game at least), when your going room to room fighting Sith, Both party member would be jedi's, I'd walk into a room and have all three use force lightning (maxed out, it would kill everyone with one shot) loot the room and move on lol
Sledgstone reacted to this -
Yea, their just trying to justify their actions because their in a ton of trouble. I still don't understand why you would post a video like that knowing you would be seen as criminals beating someone up.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

I picked up Tears of the Kingdom, but I've never played breath of the wild. I started playing wild last week. I've never been big on Zelda games, but I have to admit, it's a lot better than I was expecting.
