Remember that this was filmed a while ago.

The biggest problem for me is this: if they don't have support from other countries, how the heck did they manage to transfer all the matériel and personnel from North Korea to the US?

I'm a gamer (not that into rhythm games), and I see minimal lag. As someone else said, knowing what to expect had an influence on me. Also, in the first video, the position of the camera had a large effect on the "lag" - the perception was stronger looking from above than looking from the side.

But he had some experience with supernatural/sci-fi action (Buffy, Dollhouse) and when it comes to large(r) sci-fi, he did Serenity, so there's that

Miss. I use Opera and I'm pretty happy with it.

A workaround I found is to start scrolling down a bit, and the back up without lifting your finger off the screen.

There's a Polish hitorical-fantasy book called Narrentrum, written by Andrzej Sapkowski (the writer of The Witcher books, which inspired the games). The first line goes something like this (forgive my crude translation):

So in a way it's like Sunshine.

I love how they approached space combat in the codex (cutscenes - not so much, too much of WWII naval battles with air support). They considered the detection problems in extreme ranges, relativistic projectile speeds, kinetic energy and Newton's three laws.

The most common explanation I see around the 'net, blasters shoot some kind of magnetically contained plasma. No idea how that fares against on-screen behavior.

Funny thing is, this was even crossposted here on io9.

Not sure if serious.
