  • Halo and Starships troopers didn't rip each other off. They Ripped off Warhammer40k.

    The Mobile Infantry or SICON are the Imperial Guard / Imperium of Man.

    Bugs, the Arachnids are Tyradnids, basically Genestealers.

  • Where is the first part of homefront

  • We really have it in for France with science fiction. The Eiffel Tower has been destroyed in "War of the Worlds," "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra," "Transformers" and Homefront, to mention but a few. I keep waiting for French movies to knock off American symbols.

  • @geordischmidt Gotta remember that in American sci-fi, we destroy our own cities alot too.

  • As for why the Eiffel Tower and White House are strategic, it's for the shock value. The White House symbolizes American power, while nothing in France is as recognized by the rest of the world as the Eiffel Tower. The destruction of both would create panic among citizens around the country.

  • I always wondered why SICON didn't let T'Phai and the rest of the Skinnies keep their own weapons as backup. The things need only one shot to coat an enemy in gel and constrict to crush it (deadly against Warrior bugs).

  • terrorist bugs! hahaha.

  • why is everyone bitching, the makers of halo admitted that they got inspiration of sst

  • wait what? the Eifel Tower? i mean ok the White House and the Panama Canal but seriously the EIFEL TOWER? what kind of Strategic Target is that? LOL

  • @DeadSmile187 coz the Eifel Tower can be used as a Tesla generator to shock those bugs. Dangerous weapon. XD

  • @DeadSmile187 Moral I guess. Either that, they converted it into a huge antenna.

  • Stealth and Roughnecks are two words that don't go together :)

  • Why does the skin colour on Carl's arms not match his face?

  • Comment removed

  • GET TO THA CHOPPA

  • they should make more!

  • shoot away apes civies shooting at military personnel lose all rights as civilians and become hostile combatants allowing them to return fire

  • whats with the civies? they got bugs in them?

  • well honestly all of it ships and armor has been in concept for decades... its not like anyone ripped anything off anymore than everyone things UFOs are flying saucers. Theres a particular design that makes sense and go with it. Theres commonalities between every piece of futuristic stuff out there.

  • At least she believes him when he tells her that they got bugs. SCION makes a lot of blunders, but they learn from their mistakes.

  • i don't understand why starship troopers isnt on television anymore !!!! it is one of the best series ever , i was 8-9 years old when this first started here on tv :D aah the good old days , first wake up , get myself a bowl of Nesquick , put on the tv and enjoy starshiptroopers and then go to fucking school ..what do you have nowerdays?? ALL JUNK , starship troopers kick ass ,

  • @Tugieboy you said absolutely everything i was thinking.

  • people see the similarities between Halo and Starship Troopers because A: Starship Troopers set the genre, and B: the Art and design of the weapons ships and armor was lifted by bungie into Halo.

    I have no quarrel with Halo, great series, but get it straight people, this is not a rip-off of halo, halo rips starship troopers off

  • Not to mention halo was made a couple years after this series/movie/book

  • @FaqHunter There are in fact a few games that tribute in either small or larger ways to Starship Troopers, cause for it's time of creation, it did a LOT for the future of 3D in movies, and even in games. Even this 'kid' series did much for 3D animation even if by todays standards it looks very poorly done, was very top end back in the day.

  • @FaqHunter , it also rips aliens i a major way, Apone/Johnson, but that movie rips SST in a major way, so SST was very important peice of work for future genres

  • @FaqHunter the funnyest thing is the amors vrom the movie where also uset in a power rangers series lost galaxy and there didtn even try to change abit about them

  • @FaqHunter starship troopers is a novel from a fuckton of years ago... halo is like 10 years old barely

  • i wouldnt be surprised if this series reminds you of alot of things. the book won a hugo award for best novel in 1960. so i wouldnt be suprised if alot of game companys use it as a reference.

  • omg this is not about halo, its made first before halo was made, maybe halo copied this

  • bungie stated that they took some ideas or got an idea of things to make halo from the book, people do some freaken research before type in something incorrect.

  • Hey how about we stop talking about halo and more bout SST huh, i mean this video is called Roughnecks: STC, there is no halo no MC, and plus halo didnt make a scene until 1999 this also came out in 1999 but the book it was based on came out in the 50s so STFU and watch this amazing video.

  • lol i argee with u

  • Wtf? why is everyone relating starship troopers to Halo? this came first then Halo.

  • i found this by searching halo ;D thats good i love the series

  • and also, the spartans in halo WISH AND PRAY TO GOD they where even half as good as the mobile infantry. Letalone how much rico outshines master chief in all fields

  • weve got buggs she is just like woop-de-fuckin-do

  • Did Carl say cold fusion plant? They're definitely in the future then

  • mid 2080's or so.

  • yeah cold fusion thats what tells you its the future, fuck all the interstellar travel up until now

  • Comment removed

  • More like Pelican is a diffrent version of that retrival boat ^_^

  • Lol

  • I just want Rico to turn to the camera and screeaamm...

  • WTF!!! did he spin the other way 0:56

  • What do they want with the Effel Tower?

  • the tower is a huge ass telaphone tower...woth out it...the french would have VERY little comunications and would be very week in deffending thir part of Earth

  • Fair enough, it just seemed really out of place with the other targets.

  • I know...they should have used something more..."well known" to kids in the early 90`s AND targets that they knew what the targets did...

  • I tired of all these new bugs. This is why I started to loose interest toward the end of the series. I love the Pluto camp and Klendathu I guess. It's more about the fighting then anything, but random bugs coming out of no where kinda kills the thrill of this series. The bugs can be smart, but able to leap and bound through genetic time is ridiculous. Even though bugs can mutate on Earth they don't obtain new genetic code altogether. sigh

  • I think they gather it from a lot of people over and over again till they get the full code, or at least enough to look human

  • Did any body notice that the telepathic guy's skin colour is different on his head than his arms? Just wondering.

  • it seems as if many of you fail to see why you comment on videos, these are cool keep them coming Rye

  • thanks for somone who understands

  • what chopper? there wasnt any chopping sound

  • Its the future, everythings jets and rockets, besides, a chopper can't fly through the atmoshphere or in space.

  • lol @ the sniper! so fruity when he got shot

  • LOL their cars suck one shot in the tire and they spin out of control

  • They gotz the Contra Gunz.

  • I HATED this story arc. Warfare in an urban setting was alien in this series up until now.

  • im just getting into the series, so i gotta ask, whos the skinny?

  • whatch the topthet campain and you will find out.

  • the skinny is called t'phai the roughnecks fought them on tophet because they were under the control of the control bugs but they were releast and joined up for sicon in the tesca campaign

  • enough with the bitching!!!! please just enjoy the show as it was meant to be and relax, sheesh...

  • woudent his gun be more like the piolet gun that camman talks out of the ship wears he going to get a gernade attachment

  • My friends, this is a very nice youtube link of the old TV series Roughnecks, which I haven't seen in years. Please let me watch the fuckin thing in peace and take your political shit into a chatroom.

  • Bravo bravo

  • WOW! I would never have thought an episode of a TV show based on a book about an interstellar war against giant bugs would spark such animosity! To the people who are angry that this show misrepresents war or think that Naruto is dumb...well...that's why it's called television and not called real life! As for comments like "I wouldn't join the USAF," I say that I would be thrilled to join any branch of the military and serve my country. I am a diabetic, which excludes me.

    Seriously, GROW UP!!!!

  • Its really too bad you didn't join the Marines. I bet they could have salvaged a piece of shit like you.

  • I followed the money trail, and found a place using by brain instead of braun. Tell us dick weed, what are you doing to serve and protect? other than sitting on your fat ass ruining the reputation of my great country.

  • Actually i bet you are a damn Canadian, with your spelling of brawn wrong.

  • French Canadian and proud of it. However, I've earned my citizenship.

  • I knew it. I should be in Intel, not you. However, I would join the enemy before going USAF. Its simply a matter of dignity.

  • too bad you have to have an IQ of 155 min. to get in. better luck next time

  • my god you the most ignorant piece of shit i have seen on these things? you type as if some one cares what you are typing and i bet all you do all day is look for something to bash. Go out and get a life, like who really cares if you hate the USAF, its people like you that should just quit talking and wasting our air. And don't bash canada i bet your from the US o wow thats really respectable? Go bomb something you freedom fighting pussy.

  • USAF is the biggest group of pussies, second to none. My guess is the only thing you "protect" is your virginity, and that isn't by choice.

  • I dunno. But the entirety of the U.S. gov'ment seems to me to have a penchant for sticking their nose into other people's business, often when they shouldn't or needn't. And don't give me that "defending democracy" crap either. Nobody believes it anymore. Only a virgin to politics would believe that. To me, the US is like the creepy, untrustworthy 5th cousin twice removed at a family reunion. Only damn good president can still salvage that now. VOTE OBAMA!

  • Wonderful. Go get yourself a cookie.

  • fuck you rory2259 u son of a bitch

  • Very eloquent of you.

  • Using bad words doesn't make you an adult, you little shit.

  • I wonder if you have all these words memorized or if you're sitting there with a translator program on another tab...

  • all memorized and learning more thanks

  • enough with this im argueing with an idiotic imbecile why should i even bother good bye sir

  • thats cool man

  • Flyboys are pussies by definition.

  • how u mother fucker

  • Think about it, faggot.

  • What's a Boche? Stop making up words, you faggot.

  • a boche is a german soldier and sryimanoob is a idiot..

  • im refering to the Japanese term pronounced bokka meaning idiot/foll dumbass

  • lol im sorry for not knowing a word/ and that makes me a dumbass i bet ur fucking 10 years old ok and all i bet all that shit u said was bs. so stop making out stuff u fucking little whore

  • im 16 and its not bs and im not a whore

  • it's pronounced bakka.

  • i know

  • Not really, It's Baka. That's the way to spell it. But you say it like Bah ka

  • no it is not it is Baka

  • Oh and one more thing...I had sex with your mother!

  • could someone please tell me the order of the campaigns so i can put them all together??

  • Pluto, Hydora, Tophet, Tesca, Zephyr, Klendathu, Homefront. That's about it.

  • at 1:00, why don't they just smash the door down-be more cool.....

  • Everything in this show has a self destruct mechanism...

  • lol yyea hahaha

  • lol... at this day and age, blowing up the white house really wouldn't bother me, and a bunch of other people... as long as "Someone" was in it...

  • Go live with the commies and terrorists you moron.

  • You know even though they are not allowed to show humans killing other human like beings the changing from human to bug is much more disturbing

  • Actually there... the US has better health care. its a matter of money here though. and US actually has better education opportunities too. Just everyone takes it for granted here because its so easy to obtain.

  • yeah... we have the best health care, we can do a heart surgery for a grand total of $600,000

  • you can also get food from the grocery store without the threat of being killed (unless you live in a very liberal 'ghetto')

  • a liberal ghetto wouldn't have guns or any other weapons, so... uh... where's the logic behind your statement?

  • Liberal means not holding back assclown. Start using less politics and more of Webster's dictionary.

  • hey douche bag, you can't say "don't use politics" in a political debate. it makes you look, well, Like a douche bag

  • I wouldn't call grocery stores a battlefield for politics. But then again, I do have a brain.

  • hm... so explain why you're not using it?

  • It is you, my friend, who needs to exhibit some intelligence not me. Just give up arguing with the truth, and accept it. Then make the necessary changes, mainly, not being a dumbshit. As for me, I must go to bed, for your persistent failure at relevant rebuttal bores me now. Good luck with fixing your severely lacking mental capacities.

  • you'd better hope that your wrong, Being that you're speaking with a 2nd Lieutenant of the USAF, Intel. hope you sleep well knowing that my dumb ass is protecting you

  • Well then sorry for not believing you, Lt., but there is no way to confirm this 100% over the net and compromise your identity.

  • hey, no problem. I don't believe half of what I read either, especially when it can't be proven.

  • haha, intel, you need a breain for that, and since when does he protect your ass? Last i heard you weren't the frontline soldier

  • Right... so because I'm not on the front line I'm not serving and protecting our country?

  • Liberal means to be open minded, to be liberal with your resources and power to get things done. Liberals often have a problem with fire arms. Jmartin is right on most points, and you are wrong.

  • The only thing that the destruction of the Eifel Tower is the surrender of the French.

  • Wow, a surrendering French joke. How origional, of course if you forget the fact that France has a better health care and education system than us, was smarter than us about terrorism for going on six years, and they're an ancient warrior race while our nation would never have been born without their intervention against the British.

  • Hey, I'm British, and I say: 'WE ROCK!' And it's been a tradition in Britain to hate the French for decades, maybe even centuries. That's why we had wars against Napoleon. Of course, I am perfectly capable of respecting people, regardless of race. Apart from you yanks xD!

  • XD oh, well that's understandable. carry on!

  • Thats because you're a dumbass limey. Most brits have common sense. Sorry to inform you that is not you.

  • Who is 'us'?

  • 95% of the kids that watch naruto would piss them selfs in fear if they watched it. WHY? War aint pretty. And its BUTT UGLY when your fighting 6 foot tall roaches and ants and other bugs.

  • huzzah mate!

  • oh hell no you did not just diss naruto fans im 15 i watch naruto infact im watching naruto while i was watching this

  • Their training also includes advanced atmospheric piloting?

  • Yeah. Remember how in the Klendathu campaign they mentioned subspace communications?

  • >,< lol wtf,last time they could only say"hi how is ur day nice weather"somthing like that<.<....but now they can drive a car???

  • The bugs plan to blow up the Eiffel tower? what the hell would that do, other than piss off the French?

  • hhahhhahahaha XD lol ur right.

  • its like destroying the world trade center. Its taking out their symbol, their national pride. Its ment to inspire fear.

  • That's true, good point.

    Also, the Eiffel tower, as I found out the other day, acts as a centre for radio communications, although in an age where mankind can travel to other star systems that would probably be obsolete.

  • it would STILL piss of the french though.

  • probily make the french sh*t them selves so much that they start a war against the bugs.

    destroyed eiffel tower+mad french=war=more food for the bugs...

  • These "new" bugs seem substantially weaker, maybe it was the Queen's plan for it to be this way... after all, if they were too thick, then they couldn't transform into humans.

  • being able to swicth from alien to body probaly means they have a weaker exoskelton

  • awesome vid:)

  • now days that rate this m comon the edited naruto to be kid friendly

  • I like how they have to wait for the bugs to transform into a bug looking form before they can shoot. Guess marine like soldiers blasting away at humans isn't allowed on a kids how.

  • "oh no"

  • 'omg its teh bug looking like teh human omg who woulda thought, but maybe just maybe its a human that looks like a bug, so dont kill it' lol

  • wish this wasnt a kids show, sniper can hit a tire on a moving bus but cant shoot a trooper >_< and how do they not know their bugs in human form after actually seeing it before ? even the kids watching the show know by now :(

  • OOO SECOND COMMENT
