As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I recognized Warhammer 40k. No others though.

My request list would be:

HL Episode 3 - I'd rather play it, but this would at least give me closure.
Pay Day - However, I'd want it to be about 6 seconds long where the swat team shows up and just takes them all out and no innocents die.
Bioshock - Focusing on the little sisters
An RTS


Hell, why hasn't hollywood made a movie based on an RTS yet?

Remember when the opening rail cinematic in Half Life was the absolute coolest thing in PC gaming?

I remember reading that this was when John Romero was developing/hyping "Diakatana," and was going to make us his bitch, but he took so long that HL2 came along and did all the things he was purporting to be doing. And he was vexed.

Dikatana was garbage compared to HL, let alone HL2.

IIRC, the development was taking forever because he wasnt a good manager. Eventually they finally just released it as is, and it was lackluster.

Lackluster is too much of a compliment.

Concord is one of the games featured in this show.

The show debuts in December and Concord could be gone by then...ouch.
