Like most of the people here I'd like it back, but I wouldn't like the old one back it was rather terrible with endless repeats, but if they could get the us or uk one then that would be perfect.
Anyway didn't they move several Sci-Fi shows to ActionX?

Animax is going to go the same way that Sci-fi channel went all those years ago. Everyone one thought it was the snizz the first couple of months until the re runs started to show. True is was good until they started with the 12 hour Star Trek marathons. Lets hope Animax doesn't go down that path...

Well its always nice if you can brag that you've got a 670Mhz and your friends only got a 640Mhz

But I'm guessing there isn't really all that big of a performance or price diffrence so the average guy on the street won't really care much.

Well a bank is trying to make money and if they worked on a 1:1 ratio when it came to lending they would make any money. Everyone does it, not just banks for example when you buy something with a monthly payment plan you also end up paying a lot more.

The world of anime dubbing sure is cut throat.

I also watched Claymore last week. Pretty darn good, but not the Berserk killer everyone is claiming.

Berserk is unkillable!

I find it quite surprising that the anime is still so popular after all these years Yeah the original DBZ started in 1990 in Japan and ended in 1997, although the english dub only came out in 2000. Funimation have been releasing the eps in HD Nice, just hope that their also releasing the uncut vers...

Thanks. Fine I’ll check it out because I’m a little curious as to why South Africa was mentioned One of the guys a transporters son lived in South Africa with his wife and kids and got cancer so the guy wanted to give up the illigal transporting job and go live with his dieing son. Anyway most of t...

I buy Play the Zone and PCF, sometimes NAG but normally not, brought GEAR for a while.

but their games are 3 times more expensive

Its actually like 2 times...

I have to say, the graphics are absolutely stunning and unbelievably real

I hear the graphics aren't that good, although my source is slightly untrustworthy But I still want to get myself a copy of a console version.

But if you wait you enter a state that I'm currently in, where you decide not to upgrade because that new graphics card's coming out, or that new gadget... and in the end you never upgrade

True but if they use the prey engine that does give you some sort of idea as to how the gameplay might be, but if it is the prey engine that means it might be another corridor running shooter, although they might also implement something like the portals they had in prey.

With 1GB DDR3 Kingston Value Ram at +-R1800, and a DDR3 board also more expensive than DDR2, you could save your money, get DDR2, and replace both mobo and ram when DDR3 gets more affordable Yeah but it always good the future proof, a bit of extra money now means a good few extra months before you ...

But what I don't unsderstand is, what have they done to generate income the last 10 years? They made Prey. And the irony in that is that prey also took about ten years to make, went through if I remember like 2 development teams and was even scrapped for a few years. But did anyone else notice that...

Don't worry about the ending. The rest of the show far outshadows the ending. And the anme doesn't even have the proper ending. The story is continued in the manga.

Yeah most animes seem to suffer from the bad ending thing, although most endings are bad only because it is the end

Playing Aliens was good except there was something missing. I would of preferred if you could stalk people in teams of aliens like in the movies. Well co-op is all the rage these days so maybe, it would be far too boring if your just another solo marine vs the entire alien species with a knife and ...

It's like going from 7800 series to 7900. It's only refinements not a major change. G100 will bring the major changes.

Now I have to wait even longer to get a card that beats my friends 8800GTX!

Well let us wait and see and watch th first episode not all manga to anime conversions are good though.

True everything from Oh!Great really suffers under that coversions but it does give you a good general idea of its quality, unless they don't follow the manga at all...

Stefan thanks for the news. It's new to me. Seems like the 8800GTS512 I purchased won't struggle to much against the 9800GTX.

Oddly it seems so, I would have expected it to be a larger upgrade rather then a few tweaks.

i think its possible, someone just needs to write channels for the wii to access games hosted by pc's for example Should be able to, unfortunetly I don't know much about the wii from a development point of view, but if it like xbox with a mostly free development tool then you should be able to do s...

If I understand it correctly there’s plans for a new Street Fighter movie and casting is set to start soon

Lets hope they get rid of van Dam and follow a story more like the anime movies, else its going to suck.

Oh and dbz isn't that bad, I just hope they don't make it for the kiddies.

1st off how long will it be before the first true DX10 only games start hitting the shelves. Quite some time, or maybe not it all depends on Vista. Vista is for dx10 XP for dx9 more people use XP, so until Vista gets its act together and start selling there won't be a big enough profit margin for a...

Really looking forward to a Alien game, would mind a good predator one but aliens are just as good. My only questions is about the aliens themselves, how many diffrent types of aliens are there going to be or is this going to be a one wave after another of the same aliens, throw in a facehugger to m...

Liked the manga so I'm sure the series will be just as good.
