Defiance on SyFy

[Kathyp]

i kind of like the show.  maybe one of the reasons is that i Beta tested the game on the PC and Xbox 360.  the game and the show go well together.  seems they have done a pretty good job with the characters in the show and if you are playing the game, so much the better.

Just finished watching the pilot, interesting show. A little confusing to follow the tribes and bloodlines, but that will come as character develop.

I thought the giant "Bejeweled" game to setup the blast weapon was cool. I didn't watch this in HD though, I think I'll rewatch it because it surely is made for HD.

I see they made 13 episodes (IMDB) and this is the kind of show Scy-fy needs - a good step in filling the StarGate series. I think I'll like it from the pilot, I think a lot of the pressure is off with original series on cable; this show in a loose way reminds me of Revolution and if Defiance was on NBC it may not do as well. Scy-Fy has done a really good job at bring series to our TVs and this looks like another good one.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention Kathy.

I saw it and like it.  They did pile in too many different aliens and human groups.

i am really enjoying this show.  it's easily up there with falling skies.

I like this show also and do not miss an episode.

have you tried the game?  i have not played it since the beta test.  it was fun on the console.  didn't enjoy it as much on the PC, but i'm not a PC gamer except a little WOW.

The game is now free and not bad.  on the PC I have been playing with Xbox clone controller and it works fine.  most of the MMO...whatever games require keyboard and that's fine, but if you play more than one, you die a lot remembering the controls for the one you are playing.

anyway, if you want a not bad free game, this might be it.  better than the free version of Rift, I think.
