- Greengoo, on 08/13/2008, -3/+62That's all well and good until Shinra blows the plate over the Sector 7 Slums.
- LLLSecretChimp, on 08/13/2008, -0/+43I wish they'd have included a picture of Godzilla for size comparison.
- DonCreech, on 08/13/2008, -0/+38Neo-Tokyo!?
- 10goto10, on 08/13/2008, -1/+39That pyramid is huge, very much in contrast to BradMW's penis?
- hapax, on 08/13/2008, -1/+30I'd be wary of this pyramid scheme if I were you.
- inactive, on 08/12/2008, -12/+35Can I just post "that's what she said" here as an auto-response to any comment someone makes about the size of this structure?
- bullox, on 08/13/2008, -2/+23This has been Vaporware for years - it will probably never happen.
- happytedium, on 08/13/2008, -1/+22George Bluth had that same basic idea years ago.
- neurobox, on 08/12/2008, -0/+20lol.. dugg for "Giant Robots" as proposed method of construction
- Br3ach, on 08/13/2008, -0/+16Where does the Eva come out?
- IHaveCrayons, on 08/13/2008, -0/+15Tokyo Three!
- rz8472, on 08/13/2008, -0/+14Tetsuo!!!!
- jonxblaze, on 08/12/2008, -3/+16I wonder if it can withstand a Mega tsunami?
- rz8472, on 08/13/2008, -0/+13This reminds me of the arcologies you could build in Simcity 2000. Let's just hope that Tokyo still has unused 5x5 squares, or this is going to be ugly.
- inhaler, on 08/13/2008, -0/+12Renraku Archology anyone?
- bmusic, on 08/13/2008, -0/+12It's no Dyson Sphere.
- craighoxton, on 08/13/2008, -1/+12Kaneda!!!
- pak314, on 08/13/2008, -1/+11Are they actually building it or is it concept? I saw this on discovery channel quite a while back.
- kingmanic, on 08/13/2008, -2/+11Bah, Akira will come and level it in a few years. Then tetsuo, Godzilla, a couple of Angels looking for adam, demons, and rapist tentacles. I'd put Tokyo real-estate as a definite "sell" given the information at hand.
- newagenda, on 08/13/2008, -1/+9Fun I'd live there
- jpman7, on 08/13/2008, -0/+8Hey welcome to 5 years ago! This show was on Discovery long ago!!!
- RedneckRandy, on 08/13/2008, -4/+12I Sphinx this is awesome
- bullox, on 08/13/2008, -1/+9Actually Luxor is a pyramid hotel here in Las Vegas. The brightest light in the world shines out the top of it at night.

- jonhinson, on 06/15/2009, -1/+8アキラ!!
- dafragsta, on 08/13/2008, -2/+8It will be a large erection.
- Systembomber, on 08/13/2008, -0/+6And most of us will be dead :(
- trogdor282, on 08/13/2008, -0/+6Much more likely to be destroyed by Godzilla, an Angel, or F.L.E.I.J.A.
- TonyTheTerrible, on 08/13/2008, -0/+6It's not actually 55 times as large as Luxor if it doesn't exist yet now is it?
- BetterOffEd, on 08/13/2008, -2/+7COME ON!!!
--Gob - elbekko, on 08/13/2008, -0/+5And where exactly would they be putting those?
- Awspire, on 08/13/2008, -0/+5Well, then both are far behind in terms of submitted content, considering this aired on The Discovery Channel years ago.
- superman787, on 08/13/2008, -1/+6touche
- domokunt, on 08/13/2008, -0/+5There not, it's just some crap Disc dredges up everytime they make a "Big/Epic/Massive/Mega" Series on something.
- blacktriangle, on 08/13/2008, -0/+4Rei Ayanami will defend NERV!
- inactive, on 08/13/2008, -1/+5He's been in the Kitty.
- asus2000, on 08/13/2008, -1/+5You've never been to Tokyo I take it. It's packed. Real Estate prices there have returned to where they started before they ran up.
- Solkre, on 08/13/2008, -0/+4Are we even building stuff with nano-tubes yet?
- blacktriangle, on 08/13/2008, -0/+3It's the Tyrel Corporation!
- inactive, on 08/13/2008, -0/+3Its a glitch in the matrix.
- FluffyArmada, on 08/13/2008, -0/+3Tokyo III :D
Best anime ever. - qazxsw2, on 08/13/2008, -5/+8"55 times as large as Luxor" ????????
Luxor is not a pyramid - it's a city - a city with no pyramids .... - 0x1d3n, on 08/13/2008, -0/+3In that case....
Welcome to Rapture - moraldebate, on 08/13/2008, -0/+3I swear I've been seeing this on the Discovery Channel since the 90s.
- inactive, on 08/13/2008, -0/+3I heard about this on the discovery channel, the ***** part is that we might have to wait as late as 2100 for construction to even start. Because many of the materials needed to create such a structure don't yet exist.
- damack, on 08/13/2008, -0/+2It's not a serious proposal at the moment it was on a TV show on Discovery Channel.
It's proposed for 2050 and beyond. - mttyd, on 08/13/2008, -0/+2If you need room just build in China... I also think this would be better built upside down under the water (although not as visually impressive)
And why does everything have to be built with carbon nanotubes? Can't we come up with somthing new? How bout nitrogen or aluminum nanotubes? - taketheleap, on 08/13/2008, -1/+3hypothetical: "Such a city would be too heavy with current buildings materials."
buried. - creole, on 08/13/2008, -1/+3Because in Mega City I am the Law.
- o0dhacker0o, on 08/13/2008, -0/+2....the hell?
