Id get it if I could be a "Fett" wink:

I'll be getting it without question, looks fucking awesome, not too mention it's made by Bioware who are THE people to go to when you want the best in RPG/Adventure games.

i know I wont be getting it

Hell yeah I'll be getting that. Star Wars owns.

LOL, like the sig Slinky. biggrin:

That is a depiction of the Boston Massacre, is it not?

Yep

im waiting for devastation...demo is supposed to be out the 15th

Looks like a colored in version of the original etching used in newpapers of the time. They say (historians?) that the etching was more propaganda than fact. You gotta watch out for the media. They have agendas just like everyone else.

Looks nice. But I will not buy it. Most of the time games like this lean on the name/title of the franchise too much. Put some nice graphics in, which is easy nowadays, done. If the package wouldn't say 'Star Wars', sales would be only like 50% of what it will be in this case, is my estimate. I suspect gameplay will suck.

If in the future everybody waxes lyrical about it I'll give it another try...

I disagree with this 100%. Have you played any other games made by Bioware ? If not, you have no idea what your talking about. From all the previews I've read people are lapping this up not just because it's Star Wars, but because its being made by Bioware. Those guys know their shit.

the Wook is correct BioWare knows their shit...PLanescape Torment fuckin pwned!!!!!!!

I have only tried to play one starwars game - jedi knight. I never made it past the first puzzle. If I play games with puzzles, I have to have the walk-thru printed and next to me. I have no paitience for having to bakctrack and look for the hidded doorway or button or whatever. I like to shoot stuff.

To be honest, I don't think I have ever played a game made by Bioware, although the name seems familiar. You may be right, so I think maybe I will give it a try first, since it is made by Bioware which seems a pretty high standard then.

Do you disagree in general or only in this particular case, since the developer is Bioware?

I doubt ill be getting it but what specs do you need?

My computer would call me an asshole if I tried to run that.

Looks cool, tho.

Whats the release date?

Bioware made the Baldur's Gate games, and Neverwinter Nights. Great games, and I had Planescape, but couldn't quite get into it, though it was quite fun.

There's no doubt that the fact that it is Star Wars is a drawing point, but, as I said, all the previews I have read about it have nothing bad to say about the game. Check out the Baldurs Gate series, Neverwinter Nights (some people dont like, but I enjoyed it) these will give you a fairly good idea of what to expect as far as the gameplay goes. This game isnt going to be a rehash chopjob of Episode 1 like all those other cash ins were, and believe me, I didnt touch one of them because they were honestly all shit. This game is in a different time period, different characters, different war. That in itself should be enough to get people interested. It's set about 1000 years prior to Episode 1, back during the days when the Jedi Knights and the Sith (Darth Vader/Emperor) numbered in the thousands, not the hundreds.

This game will be coming out on the Xbox first...should be in June, the PC version will be out later in the year.

looks a little like Jedi Outcast, I don't know if I get it but I'm sure my borther will, he's the bigger Jedi Knight/Jedi Outcast nut.

I'm not a big Jedi Knight series fan, I would prefer something like a Medal of Honor type thing where you're like Han Solo or just a rebel trooper not a Jedi. too many damn puzzles too, if a Imperial ship/station is designed so stupid stormies can navigate through it why is it a friggin' maze with puzzle locks???

anyway, that game looks cool though, so I'll have to see if teh damo is any good.

It's not an FPS, it's an RPG. Dont expect gameplay like Jedi Outcast.

Too bad developers always have to convince people like me who, after hearing another Star Wars/Star Trek/Real-Time-Strategy-Clone/The A-Team adventure comes out immediately think of it as must-be-rubbish...

I'll see, a demo is always worth trying. However, I think I will need a new computer along with it.

Man, I couldn't agree more regarding JKII. Loved the game, hated the puzzles. Any game that I need a walkthrough for isn't worth the frustration.

Good to hear that this isn't a re-hashing of JKII...RPG's are kewl.

For those of you who enjoyed JKII, there was inklings of information not long ago about there being an addon or a completely new title in the Jedi Knight series. Dont know much else, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed, JKII was awesome. Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars Galaxies = lots of hours behind the computer in the coming months. biggrin:

Jedi Knight II was about the only game ive ever bought that was worth buying, although it took about 5 years to finish the game.

Hell ya im getting that game ive been waiting for it to come out.

From what I understand, this game is supposed to be more task driven than puzzle oriented.

No shit, the game lost me after about an hour of walking around looking for stupid switches.

As for RPG's? No thanks.

I hope their are more lightsaber battles those are the best.

i have a feeling my comp would do the same thing

That would be really awesome. I LOVE JK2. I played it so much, and I like the puzzles. It's makes the gameplay less repetitive. Shoot this, next room, shoot more. It's like shoot this, look for key, next room, find out how to get out. I also played it online a lot. I was in the Jedi Academy, great group of people.

awsome! ill get it for sure do ya know how much $$?

free if you know your way around the internet

awsome!1!!!!!!!! what site?

I plan on getting it.

Just have to get a new video card and more RAM...

Still surviving on my Geforce 2 MX 400 64 MB :(

Hell yes, I'm a bigger SW nut then Wookie. biggrin:

I don't care if it's going to suck like Obi-Wan did for Xbox, I'll still get it.

Jedi Knight II : Jedi Outcast was an excellent game.

Sure, the puzzles got a little old... but it gave the game some life.

yes I will.
