    Sure, may as well ask for TIE Fighter Empire as well.

    I imagine Disney is a lot friendlier to Imperial-themed games than Lucas was. It suits their corporate ethos better, esp. in combination with EA :p

    Dear BioWare/Disney:

    STAR WARS: INQUISITORS OF THE NEW ORDER

    Single player RPG, thank-you.

    And I really hope we finally get our Vong era "Jedi Master: Jedi Outcast II: Jedi Knight III: Dark Forces IV", too.

    I used to dream of a Rogue Squadron game set during the NJO. Think of the possibilities. Dubrillion, Kalarba, Ruins of Sernpidal, 1st Coruscant, Borleias, Ebaq 9, Mon Calamari, 2nd Coruscant... It would be fantastic. Hell, if they have to include a Hoth-esque level, throw in a refugee evacuation mission.

    Problem is Factor 5 went out of business. That's why we haven't gotten any past Rebel Strike :(

    Considering that it used to be "Hopefully they've learned their lesson from the Diablo III fiasco", I'm guessing the answer is still "No".

    Bonus points if they were to use it as a chance to utilize the New Class ships.

    If I ever see a Nebula-class Star Destroyer, Endurance-class fleet carrier, Majestic-class cruiser, or MC90 Star Cruiser used in a official game I will officially die from delight. No joke folks, if that happens, call 911 and send them to my location. [face_nail_biting]:p

    I want to "like" this post but the intention would likely be misconstrued. So I shall like your previous post instead.

    Barriss my friend, "like" away. I am positive that your reasoning isn't that you want me to die of a heart attack. [:D]:p

    i guess if we're talking fantasy games i'll say i always wanted a Knights of the New Jedi Order, classic bioware style, you know, four planets, 6-8 archetypical companions, etc.

    start out on kalarba, escape to yavin iv, then off on a super important quest to stop the vong from shaping jedi clones or something, idk. along the way you pick up, like, an NRI agent, an iron knight, a YVH droid, an R-something unit, a shamed one... idk who else, maybe a cagey smuggler with a heart of gold. oh yeah and i guess you will have an opposite sex fellow jedi friend and default love interest probably. who gets captured by the vong in the third act, for maximum angst.

    it would be sooo kickass

    Today i accomplished a lifelong dream. I Went to an arcade for the first time in eight years. First thing I did was run (literally) towards the ancient Jurassic Park co-op game.

    And for the first time ever, I played to the very end and won. Man as a kid I had no idea how long that game actually was. But I did it. My childhood is now complete.

    Were you preventing any other kids from playing? That's the only way to go to an arcade as an adult.

    Nope -- we had the place reserved all to ourselves, with unlimited game cards (hence why I was actually able to beat this game... after 45 minutes of the damn thing, my fingers were so exhausted).

    I've basically committed genocide against all the velociraptors, compsognathids, hadrosaurs, tyrannosaurs, pachycephalosaurs, deinosychids, pterodactyls, and apatosaurids in the universe. Ugh and there was one weird boss which I completely forget... arrrgghh and I totally recognized the species too. Dammit! :(

    I also kept dying due to friendly fire because I shot all the innocents. I am pretty sure I blew off Ian Malcolm's head and shot Sarah Harding in the crotch. Whoops. :p

    RF posted a video of a playthrough in #eu about a month ago, IIRC. Also, you already listed nearly every dinosaur that A) was in the movies/novels and B) could be a boss, so that narrowed it down.

    I always miss out on the whole #eu viewing sessions things. I still kick myself for doing homework instead of participating in the legendary group hearing of the ANH audio drama.

    Was it the invisible Carnotaurus? That one was freaky.
