My main problem with that one was how it wasn't like The Last Starfighter actually: the game in TLS was about judging a set of skills whereas in SGU it was about a specific problem. Except divorced from any actual application (like when they used it later to dial the ninth chevron and it failed) how could you or the computer program you set up know the problem had been solved unless you already knew what the solution was supposed to be? Seriously, riddle me that Robert Carlyle.
I am so tired of the Lost in Space trope. If you've got nothing else going for you except that, please go back to the drawing board. Oh, we have a megalomaniacal scientist? Srsly? Drawing board. Go. Back. Now.
