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.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
