I wasn't impressed. It's just a prerender of what the new engine could be like. It really doesn't say anything about the 2007 game except that they want to make an action game.

You're right. Sure, the engine looks pretty (but no more so than Doom 3 or Half Life 2) but that doesn't mean the game will be fun. It's too early to be hyped about this game, IMO.

I wonder...
If jedi were as powerful as the game shows, wouldn't they have been able to escape Order 66?

Well, in the video, the Jedi killed 3 stormtroopers. In order 66, they had like a bazillion clones after them, and they were caught off guard.

The video wasnt even of in-game graphics. It was a pre-rendered trailer of what they want the game to be... Hopefully their actual engine will look almost as pretty, but i doubt it. Any word on when an actual game will be announced? Like an announcement for when an announcement will take place?

Yeah, you really need to look no further than Battlefront II in order to find a game that has good graphics but OK at best gameplay. Hopefully LA will have the clairvoyance to release a game that's original and innovative in some way, less it becomes just another clone of Outcast or Academy. If that's the case, then not only will LA have beaten a dead horse, they'll have beaten it badly enough that you can't even make glue out of it if you wanted to.

I dunno, it has some promise. Looks awesome atm!

If they do it right they should have a really good story, and the way that Hyperspace is hyping it (no pun intended) it might be really great!

I might be reading into it to much but i got the feeling they were taking the jedi in a new direction ie: those being hunted down have become....angry. "A jedi use's the force for knowledge and defence, never for attack" well these jedi seem to have thrown that away! if they take that angle it could get interesting!

If it was just a game, it would be pretty cool, but as people have said before it seems to use excessive amounts of force power to kill lame stormtroopers. Very un-jedi and un-starwars.

Worlds Apart is kinda of a fitting title I guess, but it's strange that, if it continues on the path that it is on, it will be a "star wars" game because it's so un-star warsy.

If it lost the Star Wars copywrite tag or whatever, and was just called Worlds Apart or Force Unleashed maybe it wouldn't feel quite so... 'wrong'!

/shrugs/

We'll see...

If it was just a game

By this I meant "not a star wars labelled game".

I hope that Nym and the pirates from Starfighter will be in this game;it's got Hayden Blackman at the helm.

Can anyone post some of these screen shots? My IT department blocks the site.

I wouldn't mind an RPG/FPS game where you were a bounty hunter and you had to track down targets. AKA, Star Wars Bounty Hunter 2.
