Yet the uninformed assume because he is so rich his companies are pure evil. How is using a "$" in an abbreviation equivalent to thinking the company is pure evil? Talk about making snap judgments. "Hello, kettle? It's Jango_Fettish. You're black." I am well aware of M$'s (or more correctly Gates's individual) philanthropic efforts. I refer to Microsoft as M$ because, first, "MS", the alternative abbreviation, is the abbreviation for Multiple Sclerosis. And second, with the amount of money raked in by the company on a daily basis, it is appropriate. Take the unnecessary (and blatantly off-topic) negativity elsewhere. End communication.

	Other than the dueling aspect of The Force Unleashed for the Wii, which in my opinion is a FANTASTIC use of the Wii system if done properly, what might be other variations for the game depending on the platform? I know that they've differed in games before, like in Battlefront II there were additional maps on the pc version. Might there be a different/ bonus quest for the xbox to balance out the Wii version. -----signature----- "In simplicity there is both clarity and strength." "You can't rule Mandalorians.

	What makes him a hero and not an anti-hero, Chuck? Well Fett is an anti-hero, I concede he's been consistently used this way since he started appearing in his own series. So is Guts from Berserk, the Punisher, Wolverine (when he's not a straight hero), Marv from Sin City, and The Man with No Name. Fundamentally, an easy definition for an anti-hero is that he uses socially and morally unacceptable measures to deal with even worse problems. The redemption arc of Force Unleashed seems to indicate we're supposed to view Secret Apprentice as a man whose a villain that's the protagionist (Like Darth Bane) until the end when he becomes a genuine hero.

	Redemption = I really want a game where you can play as a canon evil character. Is that so much to ask? The game should still be good, but this disappoints me. -----signature----- My Icons: http://www.powow.com/thrawnrocks/icons.html Roan Fel's badassery knows no bounds.

	Jango_Fettish posted: blaXXer posted: Is it planned for PC? Or is LucasArts just catering to the console-fanboys? No, it will not be available for the PC. But then again, up until yesterday it was said that the game would not be for the Wii. So I would say there is a chance for the PC. Especially since the KOTOR games were later ported to PC, after being called XBox exclusives. Yeah, I'd sincerley hope so. I mean, what is it with the consoles these days? Their hard ware was practically out of date they hit the shelves. The PC is much more versatile, than an XBOX 360 or even a PS3.

	Oh, look, Juno is now dressed appropriately in a good clean uniform. And she's described as being "proper." Good. The skanky appearance of the initial concept art disturbed me. I'm fine with nearly-naked Jedi like Maris or the usual Twi'leks since they are debauched and must be destroyed, but no loyal daughter of the Core and Imperial officer ought to dress in such a fashion. -----signature----- SPQR Vates Jυλιαδις Moribus antiquis res stat Romana virisque - Ennius Tu regere imperio populos, Romanæ, memento; hæ tibi erunt artes; pascisque imponere morem, parcere subjectis et debellare superbos - Virgil
