Cops do stuff like that all the time, well at least in the little town where I'm from.  But what happens here in my town in the Delaware Valley can't possibly be happing all over the United States now could it?

I believe that was a matter of what the developer had to sacrifice.  Here, have some awesome hi-rezness -- oh but we can only allow 6 cars at a time, sry (i read in a review only 6 cars were allowed, so i don't know).

I don't know if interlacing affects the fill-rate demands on the console.  Is progressive more demanding than interlaced?  Cuz we could take a (60hz) 1080i image, separate the fields, then collapse them, which would yield progressive frames with half the height (540 lines high).  So in the case of GT4, is the PS2 only drawing/filling half of each frame -- using interlacing to take advantage of a higher resolution?

Personally, I like progressive all the way, baby.  I'm looking at YOU, Mario Power Tennis.


No one ever thought the PS2 could do such a thing. 480p was the most you could get out of just a few games. I can see no big difference between 1080i and 720p, both look really clean and crisp. Other than DD5.1 what can the PS2 do that the GameCube cant? Nothing. I bet the GameCube could push 1080i if the really wanted. Therefore if A=B and B=C then Revolution will be able to do 1080i regardless(A=C).  Furthermore, I refuse to believe they will not include the Componet Video Out. 480p is not HD, although you can cheat the system to make the Digital Out convert up to higher standards.

...or maybe there is no such thing as HI-DEF 3DVR( Boy do I love beating the that horse.)

Not that I'm trying to start something but why does most "high profile" (See: Hollywood, Sports, Music, ect.) case in America seem to have the same factors involved. Think about it for a while and see if you come up with the same thing as I have.

"There currently are no plans for Nintendo Revolution to support high-definition video output. We have thoroughly considered the best means of video output for the system and are dedicated to delivering the best hardware possible to meet the demands of our consumers. Please stay tuned for more details on Nintendo Revolution to be revealed soon."

The wording of this is just vague enough for me to think that Nintendo has something up their sleeve. They have already stated that the 12cm disc would be HD (was this not reported on PGCs' front-page the night after XboX360 MTV crapfest), not my words, Nintendos. That has to mean something more than what we are seeing. Some kinda loop-hole or hidden message. Sound to me like they're coming up with a proprietary form of video output. As good as HD just not the same format.

Adding HD support to a console launching in 2006 can't cost THAT much more than a few dollars per unit , if that. You can buy a 27" brand X HDTV now for about $399.99, while my 27" Phillips cost $321.14 about three years ago. I plan on getting a HDTV as so as there is a reason for me (NFL Sunday Ticket I'm looking you're way)

I always thought MJ was a "freaky-if-of-a-man" but I never thought he touched those kids like they said. They say it was all about him owning the rights to all the Beetles songs anyway so.

There is no such thing as HDVR or 3DHD yet, so that is why the is no HD support fot the Revolution.

I really hope they do drop the price of the Gamecube when Zelda drops. I just found a way to hook my Cube up to my iMac, so I need  one for the living room and one for the studio. I can finally have all things entertainment within one central hub. And I believe the GameCube will look better on my iMac17"wide(S-Video) than on my regular 27"(Component Cables).

This should be the most hyped game in the History of Nintendo so that alone should give it some sell. Maybe they'll do some midnight madness sale at the Nintendo World Store that I can crash and get some good swag.

I guess you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. It's the 3rd part to a 6-part saga, how can it feel self contained when you already know what has to happen. Not the second Matrix or LotR movies seemed to be stand alone films so why should Episode 3. What happens if they make Episode 0, 800 years before Episode 1 when Yoda was a padawan. Will the par still be so high.

The Gamecube should only be $50 if you purchase Twilight Princess at the same time.  I don't believe that they have to even acknowledge that the 360 exists  when Zelda comes out. Just let the product speak for itself with a movie-esq epic trailer and Official Theme Song by ColdPlay or whoever they decide is cool, hip and yet tasteful and not so mainstream um... nevermind my ramblings. Zelda Get!!!

Never has any of the previous movies OT or PT dragged me in like Sith did. I felt hat movie, as much as I felt Gladiator. It was like a Greek Tragedy knowing the end just made the movie that much better. I guess I really related to Anakin in which so much was expected of him, so many people pulling him in different directions , good, evil, love and hate. The way Palpatine just played the Jedi from the gate was just awesome! Yoda was as good a Yoda there can be (fighting that is, not thinking). The Purge of the Jedi was some major tear jerking stuff. It all seemed right. But all those things alone didn't push it past Empire. It was the fight between Obi-Wan and Vader on Mustafar. When Obi-Wan said what he said about those two being like brothers and how he loved him, the pain in their faces pushed it past ESB. The acting seemed on par with Empire. The writing was just as good through my eyes. And the directing was near what I expected expected (I felt some things should have been flushed out a bit as well as the fights should have been a bit longer but perhaps the DVD will suffice).

One thing you must understand about Nile Boogie is I am not cynical by any stretch. I can enjoy stuff life movies and games just on a topical level. It's fun for me to dig deep into certain parts to find little meanings and links to undercover or unspoken looks, but I will never "overstand" movies and try to place my vision through another lens. I have music for that.


P.S. I really liked the first two, flaws and all so what else could you expect from a cat like me.

StarWars is whatever George Lucas says they are. With that being said the biggest problem I have is with Anakin knowing how to give himself to the force without the teachings of Qui-Gon, Yoda or Obi-Wan. Maybe There is something I'm am missing or it's to be explained at a later date. Either or I think it's a preety big mis. The Leia remembering her mother isn't that big of a deal to me. She is just better at that part of using the force than Luke, no big deal.

With all the hype over for me and looking back on all six moives, and being of sound mind and body, I can say that StarWars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is the best movie of the saga, followed very closely by Empire. I know I know, I'm crazy and I must have never seen the OT in the movies(which I have) to say such blasphemy. So go head on Jonny Storm me...

Ganondorf confirmed? I doubt it. I also thought the Sixers would get out the first round of the playoffs so what do I know.

I will go as far to say Ocarina of Time is the best entertainment experience I've ever had. Better than my favorite movie(Braveheart/Starwars) better than my favorite book( The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe) and better than my favorite album(Nas Illmatic). I guess it's because I was in the Navy during Operation Desert Fox and Zelda was so great form me to break the cycle of shipboard life (Talk about boring).

Anyway, can we assume that Ganondorf won't be the main villain in TP. If this happens between OOT and WW wouldn't Ganondorf remember this Link. He clearly remembers the Hero of Time during the events of WW. This leads me to believe that maybe "Dik Lluks" will somehow return but how, and why? I don't even think thats possible being that he was only evil in the other timeline if I remember correctly.

How is it possible to be a Zelda fan and not like The Ocarina of Time? I am not smart enought to understand such thinking so I will leave it to the experts of mind control.  

Anyway, if Tp is after Ocarina but before Wind Waker does that mean that in WW when you run into the statue of Link in Hyrule castle that it is NOT the Hero of Time? Am I looking at this in the wrong light? Maybe something happens to which the events in TP never take place or they split time again. Does anybody understand the madness I speak?

The Death Star Thing:

First they foreshadow this in episode 2 but more importantly in episode 4 Vader clearly says, "They'll be no one to stop us this time."  This was in the first 5mins of the movie so one has to assume that something happened to set the empire back in some way, shape or form before the events of A New Hope. Also the opening crawl speaks of a Rebel victory against the Galactic Empire. So can we equate this to maybe the Rebels placed the completion of said Death Star back by a few. Besides, the Empire was fresh (at the end of sith) and there was still a Galactic Senate until Ep.4 so it was probably not as easy to build such a thing or so quickly.

What crazy talk is this about Link having children? Do we even know when this Zelda takes place? I assume that it fits some where after the First ending of OOT and before Wind Waker but can anyone help?(Not trying to get into the whole timeline debate again)

Stand, rejoice, laugh, cringe and maybe cry (I almost did) for StarWars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith does not live up to the hype. It crushes the hype with a swift and concise blow of the force. "This is the one." The one you have been waiting on since you heard of StarWars. Since you heard of movies in general. I wont go into details or spoilers, as if you don't know what's going to happen and that is precisely  what makes this movie work. You know the future and you see the road ahead, yet you're helpless to change the events of what going on right in front of you. It like watching two cars heading for an accident as you sit in on the side of the road yelling at them to watch out but they can't here you. Tragically awesome! I don't know if this is my favorite StarWars but dear me oh my it's better than at the minimum 4 of them. It's so much to take in. So much story. So much action. So much pain. It's so damn good. Acting is great deal better than any SW movie prequel or original, Maybe not so much the acting  as it is the events that surround them that brings out the best in the actors. ****ing great is this movie!!! Go see it. Forget about everything you wanted to see this week and didn't. Go see it.  It puts the entire saga into context and makes the last two films (which I must admit I liked) a whole helluva lot better by contrast. StarWars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is love, pain, power sacrifice and a masterpiece of story telling.
A+
