There's a virtual tour of the gate room on the stargate website.

The symbols on the gate are completely different now.

looks cool, does anyone know when the pilot is supposed to air? I heard October??

if anyone is interested John Scalzi is an award winning Science fiction author that is also the creative consultant for this series. He has written many amazing books most notably the Old Man's War series. you might want to check him out

John Scalzi That is his Website His blog has also won awards and he has two books that are just about the blog.

From what i have hear/seen of the script its going to be rather good. (havent read the whole thread yet) however the Destiny (the ship they are on) is the ship that originally seeded the planets with the stargates its going to be amazing.

actually that sounds amazing! :woot:

they should just call the show Battlestar Universe or something. I mean it is influenced by BSG so much so that if they didn't include the Star Gate in the show you wouldn't know it had anything to do w/ it.

Gahh, I hope not, I don't want it turning into a soap in space. I hated BSG, was like B5, too much talking and not enough action.

Personally, im not that excited about it. It's too distant from the original Stargate premise for my liking. I'll watch it off the net, but I seriously doubt this will go on my DVD shelf, unlike the mega-boxed set of Stargate and (soon to be) Atlantis.

This is true, I've recently started watching SG1 again those were awesome episodes.

Thing is, the producers haven't said they can never go home or they will never make it home again (since they are "stranded" on the Destiny) in fact, they haven't ruled out they could return home before the end of the 1st season! WTF

Plus, if you guys don't know, the first like, 5 out of 8 episodes or so all have storylines taking place back on Earth for christ sake lol

I suppose it might be smart, they may not want to fall into the Stargate Voyager formula :D

Oh and the spinning Stargate? Uh, ok.

Well I don't think they are that worn out on Stargate to go down that route honestly. But I do worry about how they will handle the whole "we can't get home, we aren't the right people for this job" thing. If I recall correctly, only Robert Carlyle's character is the only one with Ancient technology experience. And Lou Diamond Phillips is the only "seasoned" military officer with them. But hey, I could be wrong.

Either way, at least we get cameos from RDA and MS so far :)

I don't know. I enjoyed Atlantis for the most part. They wandered storyline wise quite a bit, not to mention they couldn't figure out if the Wraith were the main enemy of the show or the Replicators for awhile there lol

Regardless, SG-1 suffered because of Atlantis (I think most people would agree with this comment no?) but this time, there is no other TV show on to make Universe suffer writing wise. Though we do have the SG-1 and Atlantis movies, it's not quite the same pressure as writing 26 episodes of TV straight.

    • Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers have two more games they can add to their library without needing to open their wallets, as the Epic Games Store's freebie offer has just refreshed. That means last week's Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King offer has been replaced by two new games, which happen to be Robobeat and Citizen Sleeper copies. From the duo, Robobeat lands from developer Simon Fredholm, offering a rhythm-based action game. Released only last year, the title puts you into the shoes of Ace, a bounty hunter that's targeting the robot showman Frazzer. The fast-paced title offers movement techniques like wall-running, sliding, and bunny hopping to zoom around while shooting enemies, but the requirement is doing everything to the beat. Outside of built-in tracks, the title also lets players upload their own music to populate its levels too. Next, Citizen Sleeper lands from Jump Over The Age, a sci-fi RPG adventure taking place in a ruined space station where thousands of people are trying to survive. The tabletop RPG-inspired title uses things like dice and clocks to change how the player approaches situations and survives their day-to-day lives. There is a large range of characters to meet with in the station, each with their own storylines and alliances. "You are a sleeper, a digitised human consciousness in an artificial body, owned by a corporation that wants you back," says the developer about the setting. "Thrust amongst the unfamiliar and colourful inhabitants of the Eye, you need to build friendships, earn your keep, and navigate the factions of this strange metropolis, if you hope to survive to see the next cycle." The Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take its place on the same day. They are supposed to be copies of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The Online part hasn't even been announced and probably won't be included on day one. This is a massive singleplayer game.
    • While I agree with all that, it just proves there's an a** built for every seat.
