Uhh... What on earth were you just talking about? I really think that the only delusion about a new star wars game was your post that there won't ever be one. LucasArts has been a successful brand for many generations. They aren't just going to throw away the brand and stop doing anything with it... That's why Disney bought them out so that they could continue to reap profits off their movies. And like pretty much every succesful action based movie, a video game will follow.

For those of you who haven't seen it, this project is "on hold": http://www.lucasarts.com/games/1313/

LucasArts is looking to contact an outside studio to finish it's development because it was too graphic for Disney..

Edit: well after doing some more research I guess EA bought the rights to the future of Star Wars games.. but a thumbs up to this shit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars: ... %28DICE%29

Dude if they are going to make a new movie they are definitely not dropping this shit for a while. Way to profitable

Apologies for the confusion I don't intended to get into an argument with you, so I will clarify my words. Do not misunderstand me, yes a Star Wars game will come out (eventually) but who is to say it will be a desirable product. Let me illustrate this with a small story (for a to the point version read the bottom);

Awhile back there was a game called Star Wars Galaxies, at its launch it was a very successful game, so long story short the development team made some bad decision and the game 8-9 years later the servers shut down. In the same month of this happening another game came out called Star Wars The Old Republic.

Now I was following TOR's progress a year before its release looked pretty good and I was very excited and was hoping that it would be able to replace Galaxies as my Star Wars MMO, but I was not sold yet so I decided to wait and see. I didn't pay attention to what they said at release these reviews are usually unreliable (when it comes to MMOs at least). So I check back a year later and turns out there loads of problems with it and was glad I didn't invest my money and most of all my time into it.

So to put it in a sentence, even if a game looks promising at its launch it can still disappoint you.

It would be best if this conversation isn't continued.

Damn, sith god, that's a name I haven't seen in awhile.


Yo bros I'm currently learning 3d modeling/animation and UDK, so I promise you rep com 2. Eventually.

Awesome! Hope it does not take 20 years tho... :p

Sure I guess you're story is perfectly valid, but it's really depressing how negative it was haha... I think you should also consider that a new video game era is among us with the release of the PS4/Xbox1... And EA already released that they are running the game on their new Frostbite? servers. Knowing that they HAVE to be able to compete with games like Halo, COD, Battlefield most big name game company's are only investing a good deal into a game that they believe will be able to compete - because the developers didnt think that SWRC2 and 1313 could have competed with these games they shut down. Although if you do some research into LucasArts it was pretty much a disaster internally. But with Star Wars in the hands of Disney and EA taking over the videogame section I don't see any reason to be negative.

Yes with the release of new hardware emerging often we find reincarnations of past titles.

However, thorough knowledge of Disney and EA's history causes instantaneous changing of such a notion. If you observe EA's actions you see they are not what you would call gentle when they acquire a new asset it is more akin to being soothed by a jack hammer. Often so EA causes damage within the infrastructure and products of the same caliber or above are not reproduced again (i.e. BioWare) due to the dismantling the assets from within (as well as their products being average at best). As for Disney we can agree they do not produce games outfitted towards our kind of audience, therefore I see no hope in anything convinced by them.

(On a side note the release cycle of consoles does not greatly affect PC gaming in a significant enough manner for it to be a strong point of argument outside of market competition.)

So yes my view may be "negative", but negative views can be equally true as positive ones. Only the mechanism of time can divine truths for some are correct for a small time and others endlessly. Wisdom and knowledge are long lasting truths and are not strangers to astute observation. Everything I say follows the patterns I observe were carefully thought about the woven past to attain reputable assessments. So with that said Star Wars is following a dying pattern thus interest is being lost in the brand and people have stopped to care due to continual disappointment.

Then if I project spurious words although even if the former be true nothing stated will deter progress yet in lieu enhance it regardless. Hence If it is to answer so will we and all will be for the better. At this juncture in history however it is cadaverous in need of reanimation, it is only fetid leaving each one within its borders with the sense of death pervading them.

Consider what I have wrote, my purpose is not to argue the events of tomorrow but advise action for today. (All of this must appear excessive, but my early roots were in this community, and if I am able to give sound advise I feel obligated to do so.)

I could journey deeper on the matter at hand, but you appear not to have gathered all truths of the theme in question. Consequently I do not wish to go further in the current conversation as it was not the direction I intended and it would be an exhaustive task due to the fact that there is much to still be said. My time is sparse, adieu for now for I feel with each succedent exchange my words will heap higher till they reach the heavens.

You're missing the point. They've been handed Star Wars, they make the #1 content based FPS. They remake Star Wars Battlefront using the already succesful engine they are using for Battlefield.


Other than maybe Grand Theft Auto or a sports game like Fifa or Madden, there really aren't any other extremely succesful console games. Yeah they fucked up Bioware but Bioware never had a large following (relative to FPS games - COD, Battlefield). Battlefront is an FPS and the "handling" of it can't be compared.



PC gaming has always, and likely will always, be the gold standard for console gaming. The graphics and capabilities are will pretty much always be higher than that of a console and is the reason why the PS4 and Xbox One were developed - better graphics, more capabilities.


Using big words doesn't validate your point, and poor grammar doesn't help your case either. You also essentially said nothing of relevance to the conversation here.


If interest was being lost in the brand, Disney would not have paid $4.05 billion dollars if the brand was "dying". If you look around you would actually find that the interest in Star Wars is at an all time high. Assuming your approximately 20 years of age, your parents grew up in the Star Wars generation. Not only are they wanting to re-experience an amazing film of their youth, but the younger generations now want to play video games based upon that film. That is why they've already signed a deal to release 3 new Star Wars movies in the future.


Are you European? You must be. (not that this has any negative connotation because Chaos and Splinter were my boys[among others - Nokill, Ralph, Punk, Vash - if i didn't mention your name I probably love you too])


It's actually you who hasn't done your research. You also already said that you didn't want to argue yet you responded anyways. If that was really the case you'd just stop taking the time to say anything

Break it up girls. Nobody really cares about your stupid argument.

I think I will, and you are correct on some points but I still refuse to have faith in EA or Disney.

Also..



You guessed right yes I am. I am from Greece but I currently live in the states.

Oh My God... so much text,
hey Sithy
hey Flash

You obviously cared enough to take the time to read it, and then make a post about it. And just because you think that "no one" cares about it doesn't mean that me and sith don't care about it. And I mean I thought it was a good conversation. At least people are still posting on these forums.

Actually, I didn't take the time to read it, and whether you and sithgod care doesn't matter to me cause you guys should take it elsewhere like xfire. Stupid arguments about ridiculous bullshit don't belong on the forums.

I didn't take the time to read half of it... Sith's writing seems to be that of a philosopher, and I will, therefore, not read any of it.

Just dropping by to say that we will fuck bitches with Battlefront III which will def. be released with the new star wars movie, just look at "LEGO:LotR" sold like a hot pussy
