In T2 we see John with a great big scar across his face...........he doesnt look like Mr Charisma to me! lol
-
The very name 'Star Wars' infers Wars...............wars are usually large scale conflcts. To have a war in every episode would make this new TV series the most expensive show ever produced.......to not have a war in every episode would not be true to the form of Star Wars. They could of course rename the series Star Skirmishes ;D
-
Metal Slug...........yep I remember playing that in 1997. Are you it was out prior to 1995?
Some of those Neo Geo games are fantastic. I remember going on eBay last year thinking I could buy a Neo Geo games console for a few pounds.............I thought wrong they are still worth hundreds!
-
Or Klingon Honor Guard lol

They used to have Afterburner as my local ten pin blowling place. It was the one where you sit on a seat move the joystick and the seat moves. Very crude.
Yeah I remember th Street Fighter days...........the days when I could hit people with a combo and they couldnt even move. I even bought a video that showed how to execute the combos.
However I always thought Samurai Showdown was the better game.
-
"The force will be with you always!"............in a rather glitchy digitised effect. Yep I remember the original Star Wars. The problem was with that one, was that everytime i let go and let the force flow......I died. I guess the force wasnt with me at age 6.
Two of my early favourites were Commando and 1942.
Another favourite was Aliens. A side scrolling shooter where as 1p you can control Ripley or as 2p the blonde spikey haired chap.

Damn you guys make me feel old..........and I`m still in my 20's!
I remember the original Outrun. That had a very catchy tune.
My friend had the Simpsons in his house............the four player version!
The two games I spent on the most part 'watching' were Double Dragon and Golden Axe.
When the games companies starting charging 20p per play instead of the traditional 10p many players became upset.............I guess somebody in the industry got greedy.

Which is your favourite coin-op (arcade machine) between 1980 - 1995?
Please state reasons why.
-
No I`m not jesting............he can do what the Krenin do with just his body. Imagine what an entire planet of Travelers could achieve.
Heh Wesley stopped time............but dont knock the traveler he took Wesley away, for that he deserves at least some praise!
-
TFMF: I`d be more shocked if you bought those from a shop...........you know those things in town.
Anyway I hope you enjoy those.........you can get a pretty god lap dance for 50 quid these days you know.
-
I choose The Traveler from TNG as the man with ultimate powers. Sadly very little is known about him other than his ability to bridge space and time.
-
The franchise is now more machine than man, twisted and evil. Directing Indiana Jones films aint like dusting crops boy! Patience young padawan...........clouded is the dark side, bad feeling about this TV show I have.
-
Fascinating. Is there are re-sale value to 56K modems in Africa?
-
Good point. I assumed she was a T100 purely on the basis of the exposed metal when she recieves wounds.
-
What I would like to know is what is the diffference between the T100 Male and Female exo skeletons? Its clear that summer does not stand as tall as the regular T100's. That would suggest the T100 exo skeletons are not built as standard.
Annot would you like to write a short summary without many spoilers for episode 4?
-
I`m worried about Nite.........in regards to the source of this questionnaire. Is he trying to tell us hes a feeling little lonely? ;D
I got to page two of the questionnaire and I couldnt be bothered to complete the rest.
-
My favourite Star Trek game of all time was the Secret of Vulcan Fury.

Second favourite game was Borg........I remember bursting into laughter as John DeLance took the piss out of the mistakes you made whilst playing the game.
-
.............its hard to beat the old academy days. Even Picard agrees.
-
Nero fiddled while the ROM burned, eh?
More like.......
J J fiddled whilst the franchise burned.

Cadet.......because you get to mix with all the young ladies from all the Star Fleet professions.

The thing is about ESD damage to componets is that immediatly you dont realise you've done it. There may be no difference in performance to that stick of RAM this week, next week or even a year from now, but gradually and surely over time damage will make itself known.
Most trades in the UK have what if called City and Guilds qualifications (there are even ones for for window cleaning!) from day one you are taught to always use anti-static precautions. In the exam (which is a pratical) you will fail if you do not use the mat and ESD band correctly or in an unsafe manner.
Ive been to uni to study ICT and its seams when we were witing code for PIC chips the tutor thought it was some sort of joke that static would sometimes wipe the code from the chips............the man was an idiot.
It takes only 30 volts of static electricity to damage a micro processor and from walking from one room to another wearing justa coat the everage person generates 30000 Volts. Now that is food for thought.
-
I`m afraid I'd feel guilty going into customers PC's and causing degeneration of components through poor managment of ESD ...........of course if I was like the guy in the video I wouldnt care............I`d probably create a repeat call for myself when one of the sticks of RAM starts producing memory errors.
I`m not having a go at you Annot because Ive seen our area DELL technician do exactly the same............besides I think it looks more professional to get the anti static mat out. Ive also got a whole selection of valeting tools in my kit.
Your are of course correct, one should check all wires first. Even check to see if some small child has removed the fuse for fun. That guy was inside the case of that machine in 10 seconds...........the sign of a complete novice.
-
Ah a chance to slate Mac's.now your talking...........
A graphics designers tool if you ask me. If you've ever met a graphic designer you`ll know that to have a three button mouse would overwhelm their very small brains.
The only reason Mac is still here is because mummy and daddy keep on buying their little brats the latest IPOD for hundreds of pounds a pop.
-
The thing that made me laugh is how he just rolls up not expecting to use any tools, opens the case and doesnt even bother with any anti-static equipment at all.
No offence if any of you guys are a little chubby.....but when it comes to trades people Ive learnt one thing........over weight trades people usually do a crap job. they are fat for one reason only..........they are lazy and thats not a good trait to have as a tradesperson even if it is just shuffling PC components about.
He was in our local paper a few days ago, a customer realised he had been ripped off so confronted the guy. The technican tried to headbut him so with that the customer along with a friend dragged him down the drive way, beat him to the ground and kicked him. The guy who kicked the technician was found "not guilty".
I think he robbed the wrong person that time.
Wheres Kyran? I know there are many laughs for him to be had out of this.
could Worf's career be salvaged?
in Star Trek
Posted
Its very doubtful that we will see Worf again in Star Trek or anyone else from TNG for that matter......afterall Nemesis was the 'end of a journey', that film in my opinion didnt bring a seconds worth of conclusion to any of the characters. We were conned!
The fact that Picard wanted Worf back on the Enterprise for the invasion is no surprise considering his previous experience with the Borg. Worf really enjoyed his time on Enterprise and he makes a point of letting everyone on DS9 know. When the message reached Worf he snatched Picards hand off.
Worf could Captain his own Starship one day, perhaps when hes a little older. It seams the best Klingon captains of the Empire were the older ones. I dunno pure speculation.
