I was just watching this old show, and although it seems kinda cheesy the first combat scene of episode 1 reminded me of NS2 A LOT. And the Armor looks exactly like NS2 lol.

It is adult-oriented science fiction but without being too violent, mature or controversial for the kids. Any how I thought people who like NS similar themed franchises might be semi entertained. It really made me want to make an NS2 Machinima (anyone interested?)


Sorry if this is off topic or I broke any forum rules.


Edit: originally I only knew the you can watch it on HULU which is USA only, but I found out it is also available for viewing on YouTube!

    This is the first Starship Trooper series to NOT have any nudity in it, unless I haven't watched enough.

    The animated series? dunno bout that. But the Star Ship Troopers movies in general are not my kind of humor.
    If humankind ever starts to act like that, we deserve to be wiped.

    What? No! I didnt say anything against the WaaAAAAAAARGH
