Ocean Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 I just got the sunday paper, and guess what, LUCAS ARTS DIDNT BUY ANY ADVERTISEMENT This makes it look like a weak small game or somin, i mean for the past 2 weeks ive seen advertisements for games that come out in october, even rebel strike for GC, and various other games Why did they do this?? its not in circut city, best buy, frys, target, or any other place with pc games, like comp usa whassup with that?

King Jezuz Pie Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Hm...true... for JO there was even a TV commercial... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 That seems kind of odd, considering the game will be out in 3 days... I bet you anything though there will probably be heavy advertising when the Xbox version comes out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B00thbe Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 I think there is not that much advertisements because the game is very similar to JO in the graphics department, so maybe the common person would not be able to distinguish between the two and the advertisements would not be that successful. And after all of the complaints that it should just be an expansion, not a full game, perhaps LA doesnt think this game will do that well and they dont want to waste money on it.

Thazac Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Hm. I know I will. But it'll probably be in november considering the lazy-asses at the two stores sellling games (one is a book store (have the games, but expensive) and the other sells mobile phoes and TV:s and such (rarely have the game you want but they are cheaper)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Count Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 You people forget; its got the Star Wars liscence on it; it practically doesn't need any advertisments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Knight Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 They're probably going to do a mad advertising rush as it gets closer to christmas. You'll see two waves: die-hard fans will buy it now, parents will buy it for their 13 year olds in two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jezuz Pie Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 Well Kidso... it depends on where you live I guess... about two weeks ago I saw a TV commercial for the latest Gamestar issue... it also had some scenes of JA in it...

malinkie Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 The only ads i've seen for the game are in the gaming store windows along with "knights of the old republic". This is in Scotland though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDKnite188 Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 There was a JO TV commercial? Hmmm..... Originally posted by Ocean: could anyone tell me how many are on JK2 MP right now?? plz According to All-Seeing-Eye, I see 1876 players, but the thing is that it also includes bots as players. I would say maybe 1500 human players. I have been to two EBs and both have had NO ADVERTISING for JA. Come on! It is insane . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiroth21 Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 i bet JA will be alot better than most of the advertised games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 i have seen one advertisement for Jedi Academy so far, right outside the EB by me. Best Buy doesn't even have anything about the game on their site that i checked about 2 days ago, but of course you could preorder Half-Life 2 and Halo 2 a few weeks after they were annonced. o well, its not going to stop me from buying the game. infact im going to be going to Wal-mart to see if they put out the game early. hahahahahaha!
