So Hayden Blackman is project lead? I hope Nym makes an appearance in this game.


Also, I'll bet both my arms that this game will end up being a cliff-hanger like all good Star Wars games.

Could we get the thread title changed so there'll be less n00bs making threads about TFU?

The game looks like good Force smashing! Any thoughts on what the big revelation about the Force might be? Maybe that it can be used like in the Clone Wars cartoons in the actual universe?

Also, if it's Vader's apprentice, why do you think the person is destroying Stormtroopers? Shouldn't they be on the same side? Maybe that's the redemption part? Getting out alive while being chased by Vader trying to stop you. That might be thrilling!

Well, I said one was locked and the other does have a strange name, so I just didn't notice the Force Unleashed bit. Not quite a n00b, just peroccupied!

I read through the Game Informer article and it cleared up a couple of the discussion points.

PS2/PSP versions are being made by a separate studio and the DS version is being made by yet another studio. So I think the store will be similar, but the game my be different. If anyone tried to play Lego Star Wars II on the DS, the game looked really good, but game play and camera angle were really bad.

The article also had a quote from someone working on the game (probably someone from LucasArts) that basically said, we haven't ruled out a version for the Wii, but it won't be the light-saber game that everyone is hoping for.

At this point it looks like to see the game as Lucas envisions it you'll need a Xbox 360 or PS3.

Everything they've published so far make this game sound like it's going to be THE star wars event of 2007 for the masses, hopefully we'll see the Wii game we all want in 2008, or at least with Indiana Jones coming out a Wii game with bull whip action ;-)

How close to ANH do you think this game will be in terms of antiquated ship interiors, rugged looking ships, seventies hair, etc.?

I hope it will continue the trend started in RotS and feature more ot-ish design, while moving away from the elegant designs seen in the prequel trilogy.

It'll probably be closer to what we saw in ROTS, as it seems to be set a year or so or less after ROTS. Then again, a lot of OT-era Imp stuff is unleashed almost overnight it seems, so it could be more OT still.

Agreed! he looks awesome!

Just now checked it out, and yes...he looks friggin RAD! Is it just me, or does his lightsaber hilt slightly resemble Anakin's/Vader's? Nice little touch there.

As for JEJ and Ian doing the voices, I'd be willing to bet Ian will be for sure. I'm almost thinking they'll have Hayden do Vader's voice, though, like in ROTS, since it's a younger Vader in the suit, right? I could be wrong there, though. No complaints from me either way, as long as it's not Jake Lloyd...though I'd LOVE to hear Vader say, "YIPPEEEEEEEEE!!!"

That's just me, though.

I'm pretty sure JEJ did the voice in ROTS.
However this game i'm not so sure, lucasarts seem to have thier vader 'voice'. Ian would be nice NO ONE does it like him cool

This game sounds great so far. It's also nice that Lucas was directly involved over its development. I might have to get a next-gen console sooner than I thought.

i read somewhere that the clip is not necessarily the game, it was just a demo of "cool stuff" for lack of better terms that they presented to George and company to get the approval to develop the real game, im sure the game will be along the same lines however
