Re: Possible Zone Of the Enders: 3?

Is that article dated back in April? There is a more recent one from Kojima Production blogcast - http://ameblo.jp/kp-blogcast/entry-10366236399.html Not sure what it says since it's in Japanese but according to Gamespot, Kojima said that he definitely promises a ZOE3 - http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/a...

Dang, I didn't notice your reply earlier. So that's how a quick turn is done.

Re: PS3 region coding issue?

Developers are indeed given the option to region lock their PS3 titles but as far as I've seen none have done so as of yet. They very likely reason devs don't use region locking is that PS3 copy protection mechanism is still largely unbroken and doing its job. I know that there are people who can m...

Re: Armored Core 4 Plot Questions (SPOILERS)

Pretty much, You were the sole Next pilot belonging to the Anatolia Colony. IIRC, you were one of the first people to pilot a Next, or at least one of the people who tested Nexts. Really? Somehow I don't think that the protagonist in AC4 is one of the first to pilot a NEXT since he's not one of the...

Re: Geschmeidig Panzer and Phonon Maser

From the description, it would seem that Forbidden Blue's Geschmeidig Panzer is there for the purpose of functioning as a pseudo-pressure hull, not as a defensive mechanism to protect it from attacks.

Re: Geschmeidig Panzer and Phonon Maser

Geschmeidig Panzer is based on Mirage Colloid which uses microscopic prisms so my guess is no since prisms do not exactly mix with sound. This doesn't mean that phonon maser is terribly effective against Geschmeidig Panzer because there is only one environment where the weapon can be used most effec...

Re: Prototype

Not quite. The Supreme Hunter was given birth by Greene but only after her fight with Mercer. It was actually the Ragland's 'cure' which was rejected and then expelled by her body after it was injected into her by Mercer when she pounced on him in the cutscene. PARIAH is Greene's son which General R...

Re: Prototype

Finished it last night and yeah, it definitely needs a sequel. Greene and McMullen dead, Cross got eaten by the Supreme Hunter, that bastard General got eaten too and then there's PARIAH. We still don't know what happened to Greene's kid so I'm hoping Alex goes up against him in the sequel. Right no...

Re: Question

considering the amount of kinetic energy delivered by a railgun, stun is most likely a side effect. a round can be design to shatter on impact and deliver maximun kinetic energy. Forgot to think about this one earlier but making the round so that it shatters on impact would be rather redundant. Eve...

Re: Question

Out-of-universe, the technology probably didn't exsist or wasn't widely known when the shows were created. In-universe, other technologies are probably simplier or easier to use. In the case of UC, why should ships bother throwing metal at other ships when Minovsky-based beam weapons provide them w...

Re: Armored Core Generators

^ Regarding flying I meant long range independent flight, allowing them to cross oceans and reach orbit (... um, yeah) by themselves. They don't need it since they are primarily confined to land operations although AC4 onwards change that by allowing AC to fight air battles. And by that, it means t...

Re: Another concept: Mobile suits run by anti-matter

Not practical for MS use. 'Not' to be spelled with capital letters. MS already explode like firecrackers when shot to the hips, arms, etc. :P so why would they want to use something which is far more volatile? Fission and fusion reactors have safety mechanisms even like what we use presently. If the...

Re: Armored Core Generators

At first it would seem that ACs are imuch stronger than any Gundam, but there's a catch. Now, fusion generators create heat, and lots of it. This, in turn requires huge and complex cooling systems to prevent a meltdown. While a structure based F reactor is infinitely better than a N reactor, everyt...

Re: PS2 UC Climax

What AceWhatever said and one other thing - it's slower too. To me, at least when I played it right after playing ACE2 last time.

Forget Climax UC and buy something else instead.
