Starship Troopers

[Sprite Machine]

Oh, shush.

Humans and Dolphins are both mammals but I wouldn't say they were very similar.

God, we argue over some inane shite, don't we.

We do indeed!

But come on! Humans going to war with aliens.. that whole gung-ho opening to the Silent Cartographer... Starship Troopers was the first thing that came to mind when I first played that. On some level, there are some very clear similarities.

Hmmm... I'll give you the opening to Silent Cartographer, but that seemed to me to have more in common with any gung-ho war film. I think it's fair to say that Halo borrowed literally from many sources to create its glorious whole. (stop sniggering.)

There is a Starship Troopers game for PC, I have it right here. But it seems it never got released, don't know why. It is a Command & Conquer game. Not great, but pretty exciting to play.

A collective sigh of relief from the dolphin community.

It was the alien-world-a-bit-like-earth and squad of cheeky soldiers that rang a Starship Troopers bell when I played Halo.

An online team based Starship Troopers game could be really brill - I'm not sure it would work in single player. At least not without very very good squad AI, which I don't think we're at yet, observing Halo's. (Maybe that's just me being rubbish at defending my team-mates though or else them being pathetic compared to Covenant).

Those beacons in Halo reminded me of the massive bugs in ST that fired blue shit into the sky.

And no one even remotly remembers Body harvest which is as close to the film as your going to get right now, it was almost identical in bugs, such as flying ones, and huge ones that shot out stuff from their arse etc.

Starship Troopers : Terran Ascendancy is it's name.

It covers the span of the film and past it. I fucking loved it, even if the camera was a cock to handle.

This is a toy version of the power armour form the book. Looks somewhat more impressive than the one on that book cover

When I first saw this at the cinema, I thought it would make a great on-rails shooter for the arcades. As long as they made full-size replicas of the rifles they use.
