The movie wasn't bad, but enough is enough.

Watch it dammit... SG-1 actually has its moments....

Blessed are the Ori!
 
Sg-1 is good...not as good as back when Jack was on it all the time..but still good. I kind of like Atlantis better now.
 
Liked the movie, but the tv series is terrible. Odds are this game will never see the light of day. Wasn't another Stargate game just cancelled a few days ago?
 
Are we going to see this one canceled as well?

Personally I think the Stargate material is just perfect for a videogame. Funny thing about the recently canceled game, it would have featured the old SG1 crew. Would Teal'C have been bald?

SG 1 MMO with humans as the only playable race?

FAIL!

I'm pretty sure the Tok'ra and/or Jaffa will be options as well. You can pretty much shoehorn both races into class stapes anyway (Tok'ra more proficient with technical arts and the Jaffa are more inclined to physical combat). The humans are in the middle. But still, I don't see why they are even bothering with this (and I like the show so it's not like I'm a hater or anything). Nothing even stands a chance with WoW on the market. I'd love to see MMORPG marketshare, I'm certain WoW probably owns atleast 80% of it.
 
I had never seen the series but liked the movie. Then saw an episode of sg-1 on tv and laughed..no way would that be successful. Then yrs later a friend had the season dvd's and told me to watch some over the weekend. I was hooked.

TV series on dvd is the best...no waiting a week for the next episode..no waiting 6 months for the next season, etc. SG-1 was pretty damn good. Jack (McGyver) was a crackup. So if you dont like the show based on a couple spot checks on tv, try renting season1 or borrow from a friend. It will get you hooked.

Atlantis has me hooked now..cept I have to wait for the new weekly shows.
 
Season 9 is starting to pick up..last friday's episode with Mitchell's dying friend and Baal (again) was great.

That said, if done right, this could be the first MMORPG I actually play.

1st half of the movie was good the rest sucked hard. Everytime I think of the SG the image of that slave kid with a helmet running pops into my head :lol

I love sci-fi but have never been able to watch the series. Not a big RDA fan.

He was one of the better (best!) characters in the series. Still, he isn't in it anymore (hasn't been for a while) so you can't use that excuse. ;)

I'm still bummed the FPS got cancelled. Even though I wasn't really impressed by it, I'd rather they'd push it to next-gen.. even if that'd mean a few years more dev time.

It's "Hallowed are the Ori". :)
Actually, I think the series are degrading since the 7th season.

ontopic: pity that they don't seem to throw in Asgard, Nox and other races. As every race has it's (dis)advantages, it could make the game more lasting.

One word... Expansion Pack ;)

No matter what the haters on GAF say this should be pretty good :)


edit: actually thats two words and a smily but wth
 
I'm a pretty big StarGate SG-1 fan, but I don't remember a race known as the Nox... :( Who are they ?
 
Playing as the Nox would rock. You could just run around from world to world and make random people and things invisible. It would be hilarious.

I was more impressed by the mods MGM supressed. The actual game looked like a POS.

How would you balance the Asgard and Nox races though.. both of them are ridicously(sp?) powerful.

Nox are strong in healing and hiding, but a peaceful race (no weapons?). The Asgard are technologically strong, but in the series they already stated they lack innovation and reproduction. Where the Goa'uld could win in numbers (plus: convert people, just like the Ori), the Asgard could be limited in numbers.

If I remember correctly, from various story details mentioned it sounded like Alliance would've fit in Season 8-ish, so Teal'c would be haired.
