Phantasy Star: Fringes of Algo

I saw the episode last night. It was really boring. I'm not much into shooter type games and that's about all they talked about. Hopefully the next episode will be much better. I'll give it one more week. :wink:

Really? I thought it was interesting! It was interesting to see how the future of the world's military could be affected by gamers.

That was a little interesting, but I think they just spent too much time on it. Around 45 minutes is a bit much for that subject IMO.

I did like seeing that old Atari arcade game again - Battlezone, I think it was. I had completely forgotten that I used to play it and haven't seen it in years.

Did anyone catch last night's episode? I found it a little more interesting, but all the simulation stuff that dominated the first half of the episode was pretty dry as well.

Oh, whoops, I thought it was Tuesday earlier, and Saturday just a bit ago. XD

I thought it was Tuesday for a while too, so I almost missed it myself.

Yeah, I caught last night's episode, but only because someone reminded me it was on. Otherwise I probably would have forgotten to. It was kinda boring to me, but I did find a few points rather interesting.

They talked some about the original " Halo " game which I found interesting since Halo 3 just recently came out not too long ago. I don't know if this is continued next week or what. If so, I will try to watch it, if I don't forget.

There is another episode to come, but I think just one more. I was looking on Discovery Channel's website earlier and they only had one more listed in the episode guide there.

I saw it. It was okay. They talked a lot about Black and White, which was interesting because I've thought about getting that before. Based on the show, I think I'll skip it. It looked boring.

The stuff about the home-made Halo movies was interesting. What did they call it? mechima? The word sounded like anime, sorta.

Everyone remember, the show airs again tonight. I believe it will be talking about online games this time, so we might see a mention of Phantasy Star.
