what they should do is make a game that takes place after 14 ABY (jedi academy) instead of another piece of bantha poodoo TCW game. id bet the guys at raven software or even the guys that got laid off from raven would love to work on a JA sequel, for example.

I'd kill George Lucas in a heartbeat for a chance for us to get another space fighter sim just as long as it wasn't set in the Clone Wars.

well, supposedly, lucasarts got an Unreal Engine 3 licence back in april, and may be making a new rpg, a new fps, and a new aerial combat game. my best bet is that the air combat game is a tie in to Red Tails, but the other 2 games seem like they may be star wars related, as i cant really see a non star wars title for lucasarts being a shooter or an RPG

A little extreme, don't you think?

It's George Lucas; he's already expended all of his usefulness.

They were intimating about a new X-wing series game a while back. That's the last anyone heard of it, I take it?

Besides that, I'd like to see a Jedi Knight that pits Kyle against the Vong. In the meantime though, you can play him in PR as a tactical third-person shooter - he starts Operation Skyhook at New Kisge, which is right next door to Danuta .

tell me he has to fight through a base thats like a stormtrooper factory

[Phoenix Rising]

That's the idea. See here.

incidentally, the 20th anniv of DF is coming up soon. this would be a treat : all 5 DF games, including mysteries of the sith and JA, remade with upgraded gfx, sound, ui, mechanics, etc. best part is that you could probably fit it all on 1, maybe 2 dvd's tops

[Phoenix Rising]

That makes me feel old... I started modding (it wasn't even called that back then) on Dark Forces. If you never got into that aspect of DF, but can still load it, then check out this level. I didn't make it, but it's a personal favorite.

That would make George Lucas a massive pile of money and simultaneously please Star Wars fans. He won't do it because he enjoys feasting on our nerdrage whenever someone says the word "Jar-Jar Binks" or "younglings", and there are no Gungans or younglings in the Jedi Knight games.

And for that reason, we're getting The Phantom Menace in 3D, which will still suck, only now in 3D, instead of A New Hope in 3D, which would be one of the most awesome things ever and generate much new interest in Star Wars both from old people who saw the original back in 1977 and children seeing it for the first time.

He'd splice in JarJar now being luke's copilot in a brand new two seater x-wing that screws cannon even more. I don't want him to touch them anymore, they've been molested enough by his dirty old hands in the special editions.

[johnchm.10]

hed add throw ewan mcgreggor's head over sir alec guinness' for all the force ghost scenes

[johnchm.10]

or hed take a page from the robot chicken book and add a force-ghost jar-jar. WITHOUT giving us a death scene

[Solusar]

Or, to f*** with our heads even further, he'll put everything back the way it was before he started making stupid changes like special editions etc.

Then re-release it all at the cinemas and on VHS.

[Phoenix Rising]

Say what you will about TPM, but having it in the theaters will give our popularity a boost. Especially if we have a new release out in that time frame.

[Kauto]

I don't mind if GL wants to do things like TCW and such, they don't interest me so i dont watch them. when it comes to games however, they have made a lot of crap with a few gems.

personally i liked battlefront, i know it was released at the same time as redone versions of the original films being released and thats probably the reason we got a new game set in that era. but you'd think someone at lucasarts would have a look at what was selling well at the moment (battlefield 3 and COD for example) and think 'we could make some money putting out battlefront 3'.

i'd love to see a modern x-wing game also, i fire it up every now and then, still a great game.

suppose what i'm getting at is they do make some gems, but they dont seem to notice what we're buying and what is given good reviews and blindly put out garbage to fit with whatever GL is up to at the time.

cant remember if this is on topic or not, end rant lol
