Guest Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 Alright, You've seen 'em all. Which sci-fi series do you think comes to mind when you enjoy playing the BC series and explain to me why you like it and it's high points in believability, story, and technology. Here's a list but tell me if I'm missing any or incorrect.Star Trek Babylon 5 Battlestar Galactica Space Above and Beyond Buck Rogers Flash Gordon Roughneck's Starship Troopers Chronicles Cmdr.

Guest Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 And remember, conflicting arguments saying which series can beat other series in terms of technology and all that junk is not welcome. Been hearing these type of things in other forums too many times and it's pointless.------------------ "Live forever apes!."Cmdr.

ShoHashi Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 While playing BC, I'm sorta reminded of Battlestar Galactica. Basically because here you are in command of an huge ship with interceptors that could possibly be Colonial Vipers. You have shuttles just like the Galactica's that can transport rovers down to planet surfaces. That's just my take anyways! BTW, I don't really use the transporters much..the Galactica never had them! ------------------ Cmdr ShoHashi Spectre Fleet Commanding Officer, PreComm Crew, StarStation New Frontier ICV Aries ICQ 484321 [email protected] "Attack With Effectiveness" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipse Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 none really. BC3K doesn't really compare to any TV series IMHO.------------------ Cmdr.

Guest Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 The v.2 BC reminds me the closest of Battlestar Galactica with the command of the ship and fighters. Now I have a wait and see attitude for BCM don't think this newest version of BC will quite compare to any series once it's released.------------------ EarthCOM-Officer Karl Wolf ECV Hammer of God Epsilon Battle Group (Black Guard) 15th EarthCom Planetary Force"When it comes down to it, Earth is first and everyone else can go to Hell."

Steve Schacher Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 How about the old marionette show "Thunderbirds?"If you squint your eyes and look real close, I swear I thought I saw little strings running from my BC to the top of the monitor...

ShoHashi Posted July 8, 2000 Report Share Posted July 8, 2000 quote:Anyone remember FOX's short lived "Space: Above and Beyond"?I do, Aramike! Being a fellow Marine like yourself, I guess we related to the show. It was a very good show IMHO, and it's run was cut tragically short.------------------ Cmdr ShoHashi Spectre Fleet Commanding Officer, PreComm Crew, StarStation New Frontier ICV Aries ICQ 484321 [email protected] "Attack With Effectiveness" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aramike01 Posted July 8, 2000 Report Share Posted July 8, 2000 It was an awesome show, Sho! (Show, Sho, hmmm) Seriously, the finale left too many unanswered questions. Probably had to do with the money involved. FOX couldn't afford it, I bet. The only other thing was that squad of Marines were made up totally of officers. And they did work for a living! I loved that show!Any idea where to find some video cassettes?------------------ Cmdr.

Blades Posted July 8, 2000 Report Share Posted July 8, 2000 Space: Above And Beyond. Now THAT was a show. Must admit, some of the episodes were kinda arse, but the premis was good and I followed it all through it's short run. If ever there was a TV show I'd bring back to life, it would be that one. Still, they killed off at least one of the main characters, blew the leg off another, had two more go down on some alien planet somwhere and left the wimp n the nipple neck to carry on with the fight. Sigh. Anyway, nothing to do with the topic. Nothing currently can compare with the BC universe. Not that I've seen anyway. Speakin of which, you guys aware of the new Star trek movie due next year?

Guest Posted July 8, 2000 Report Share Posted July 8, 2000 What's the theme about in the next ST movie? And where can I find any relevant info on it?------------------ "Live forever apes!."Cmdr. Kron Spectre Fleet ICV Vanguard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 8, 2000 Report Share Posted July 8, 2000 Yeah it resembles Battlestar Galactica. I saw the entire marathon on Sci-Fi.. whew, what a headache... but I got my memory refreshed at least Good grief! Another ST movie? Will they finally kill Riker????

ShoHashi Posted July 8, 2000 Report Share Posted July 8, 2000 quote:Any idea where to find some video cassettes?Gee, Aramike, I'm thinking that I had saw some episode videos on Space: AAB, at either Suncoast Video at one mall or The Wall at another mall. I can't remember for sure. I think the SciFi channel is showing the reruns, but I'm not sure of the day and time. It's a long shot, but here's hoping that someone will revive it.------------------ Cmdr ShoHashi Spectre Fleet Commanding Officer, PreComm Crew, StarStation New Frontier ICV Aries ICQ 484321 [email protected] "Attack With Effectiveness" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
