    just give the best things you like about your favorite scify!

    my primary list, from star wars of course!
    hyperdrive-it gives the ability to cross the galaxy in days, or even hours if its the Millennium Falcon.
    Lightsabers-dam cool and dam advance i say! just the ability to hold it (its blade would be probably hundreds of thousands of degrees) means they have such an advance technology to disperse the dam heat from the wielder.
    Cybernetics- they have the ability to REPLACE ALMOST ALL BIOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS, as evidence by Grevious!
    Artificial Intelligence-probably the most advance in any scyfy universe. i mean if a 9 year old slave from the buthole of the galaxy can build a functional, and quite intelligent, droid, that says about everything!
    the death star-both first and second, but the size of the second is the thing! some 60% of the 900 km bulk build in under 4 years, that's just dam impressive!
    planetary shield- did you heard of any other scyfi n which they have the ability to encase an entire planet in a shield??
    Coruscant-the city planet, with over 1 trillion inhabitants. permanent inhabitants that is, cuz there are lot more just passing by.
    Centerpoint-a gigantic EU space station that can use its hyperspace tractor beam to move planets, stars, or use it to destroy them
    The Star Forge: a gigantic factory, that eats your star and planet to build vast fleets.
    and of course THE FORCE! nothing more needs being said about it!!

    There is absolutely no way the empire could defeat them

    made by a near-omnipotence prior.
    right!
    first of, data had the personality of a fish. second, C3PO was a mere protocol droid, while data a multi-function droid (engineering and science for first and...what else?)
    C3PO had more personality than data hands down, and that is way more advance than any trek pulled out, except for Lore, who, despite being an evil psycho, is one of my favorite characters from star trek.
    but, this is not a thread to debate these stuff, so just pass.

    Data actually had human relationships.

    Okay, just one question. If you were the captain of your own ship would you rather have C3P0, a whiny droid who's only helpful ability is to translate, or data, an android who is extremely useful in battle, very smart, and can interact far more naturally with your crew as well as translate?

    yah. Though it was extremely hard.

    I would love to see the tyranids face off against the empire and rebel fleets. That would be so epis. Tyranids would kick ass.

    well that's not a fair question, cuz as i said, data is multi-functional and 3PO is a protocol droid, ie-translation is his primary programing. even so, he showed he can pilot a ship (revenge of the sith) and has other skills. even so, he has way more personality than data (human relationships like what? i don't remember many stuff about that, i don't pay attention to that crap).

    and as i said, 3po was build by a 9 year old slave from the "farthest place from the bright center of the universe" and had at least a quarter of data's abilities.

    but to answer your question, i chose both

    ... So did data actually had sex with the borg queen or did they yust kiss?

    i think they did...which leads me to the conclusion that data is after all just a highly complex sex toy:shake::shake::shake:

    The fact that he was built by the 9 year old only gives evidence to the 9 year old's abilities, not to the droids.

    george, why do you just bash and bash? You have a one track mind and it doesn't really have much traffic on it at all.

    SW is not really all that great.

    Take the tyranids for example, if you somehow gathered all of the ships ever used or made between the first episode and the sixth the tyranids could easily annihalate all of them.

    Even the borg could do the same.

    right. take that to the proper thread.
    sw has MILLIONS of ships. that's a fact. oh, and the tyranids are,well, from a table game think, so they don't really get included, but yeah, they probably could take on anyone. their just...monstrous!!!

    bash and bash? do you really have nothing better to do than to insult me?

    as for the borg: ONE ship was able to push back a species that was kicking their nano-buts, i'll love to see them take on a civilization on the same foot with them. even IF they could overpower a SD, they would never be able to assimilate anything useful from it. SD have a auto-destruct you know, and the stormtroopers (or clone troopers, which era you prefer) would easily push them of the ship, and if not they would be ready to die with the ship.
    the borg's magical adaptation would be useless against turbolasers, which don't use frequencies (not like phasers anyway) and they have gigatones of firepower. not to mention overwhelming numbers of ships, undeniable ftl capability, superior tactics,etc.

    but you can discus that on another thread.so please lets keep on subject here,shall we?

    Well they do have a video game, a bunch of novels. And they are scary as hell. Like a combination of the flood and aliens

    Actually, according to another forum at the height of the empire the empire only had 25,000 star destroyers.

    A tyranid hive fleet can attack a single planet with more then a million ships. And those are the vanguards of the tyranid hive itself which surrounds the galaxy.

    You wanna do a nids vs. somebody else thread? That would be fun.
