Kain Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Man Lynk. With that avatar I dun think you have room to call anyone a pervert. We all know that the movie isn't going to be like actual gameplay tho. Its gonna be all rag dollish like JKA. Stupid game trailers making games look cooler than they really are. Here's to hoping I'm wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 My first thought was "What the hell do they need the lightsabres for?" Depleting 'manapool' and "limited" close combat options ? Wow, talk about a blast from the past. Funny, I still remember my password Lots of good memories here... Zomg ! Awesome comic, Tim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-64 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Man that is so random that IG posted his profile and then he came back.. The all-seeing-eye of Tim Buckley. Hey Tim, your comic's great. Stupid game trailers making games look cooler than they really are. Reminds me of a certain Galaxies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagobahn Eagle Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Reminds me of a certain Galaxies.Galaxies was quite good, actually, especially the level system. Not that it's ruined now by the fact that they added Jedi, though:mad:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I'm still waiting for my LucasArts game for Wii... if it'll ever come. I doubt it though, I've lost all faith in LA in that area lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_hill987 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I hope to hell this isn't a game for the Wii. what you all fail to realise is just how much the Wii is gonna suck. Take a TV remote, wave it about in fornt of you for half an hour and see how much your arm aches, then you will see just how stupid Nintendo have been.

Mike Windu Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I hope to hell this isn't a game for the Wii. what you all fail to realise is just how much the Wii is gonna suck. Take a TV remote, wave it about in fornt of you for half an hour and see how much your arm aches, then you will see just how stupid Nintendo have been. ... don't come in here and start spouting crap, please. It hurts if you keep it still for 30 minutes, but since playing a game with the Wii implies movement, your argument is pretty much naught. At any rate, you're burning cals, which is more than anyone else can say for other platforms. Back on topic: If this ever does get released for Wii I hope they don't have the stupid preset moves, and you can slash any which direction you want.

toms Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 There's been lots of conflicting reports on a lightsaber game for Wii.. sometimes LA seem really up for it, othertimes they seem pretty down on it. That was a great tech demo... though it didn't look like a particularly great game. Too much like JO/Ep3 for my liking... and though it all looks funky its basically just improved visuals on the powers in JO. Was there anything in that vid you couldn't already do in JO?? Throwing boxes i guess... but you could do that in JK... It looks like good tech, but if they don't use if for more than windowdressing then it'll hardly revitalise the franchise.

Kain Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Know what I love about this place? Everytime someone says something negative about Nintendo, someone comes up and tells them not to spread their crap here. But if someone says something positive about the PS3(the few things that are positive, I admit), everyone comes up and starts shooting em down. Some people like to hand it out but just can't take it.

Dagobahn Eagle Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Some people like to hand it out but just can't take it.N'ah?! You're ****ting me! () As for the game, the destructible environment is great, but that's all the good there is to it, if you ask me. I'm sick and tired of Jedi games and of Jedi polluting games they shouldn't be in (read: Battlefront II and Galaxies). I want an X-Wing series sequel with an ultra-high-but-customizable-by-means-of-menu-options degree of detail and realism, lots of ships and stations, and the ability to hand-pick your pilots and give them promotions, medals, and such. If they don't give us that - and they won't - then it's all the same to me. Keep dishing out games with great graphics and no innovations (not to mention no good plots) and see how much I care. Edit: Funny I was posting about Star Wars, 'cause when I submitted this thread and alt-tabbed to the Grey Wolves super-mod (Silent Hunter III) installer, it was finished and told me, "Prepare to have your socks knocked off... you are going from Space Invaders straight to Star Wars! )":D. I love coincidences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if someone says something positive about the PS3(the few things that are positive, I admit), everyone comes up and starts shooting em down. Some people like to hand it out but just can't take it. 1. It's offtopic. This thread is not meant for Nintendo 2. I don't spout crap that I can't take back. Sorry sir, that's an assumption, as I haven't bashed ps3 at all (gasp and shock!11 Mike Windu is not a fanboi?!j3423) or if I have, it's been in the PS3 THREAD. 3. Legit arguments are brought up if I ever talked about the PS3. It plagiarizing motion sensing capabilities and whatnot, and the crappy batarang (now retired) controller. But arguing that waving your hand around for 30 min might get tiring? Pish posh and irrelevance. Most of the time when you have fun you don't get very tired anyway. The option to hold your arms at your sides is also present, though you might have a bit more difficulty maneuvering. You don't want to get tired? Hold the remote right next to your hip and undulate your hip with movements in order to move across the screen. Might look like some sort of odd sex ritual, but your arm won't tire!!!1111 toms: You know, you're right. I noticed that too. Hopefully this does involve an actual story if its the JK series... cause I'm tired of random missions and less than interesting characters.

swphreak Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 The tech demo certainly shows off some fancy physics dothingies and sweet Force powers, but that's all it did. No actual gameplay or information. I think we might want to take a step back til more official information is released. The Force action did remind me of Psi-Ops and the TK power.

Yeah you're right, people absolutely hated it at E3. Man, Nintendo PR was fooling us all along. If only more people would troll in these topics I'm sure people like Absath would return more often.

Jeff Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 There is really going to be minimal arm movement required, they overemphasize it on the commercials and stuff because they want the people to seem really excited about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toms Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 C-A-D only started in 2002?? I figured it had been around way longer than that. Weird to think of a celeb amongst us... i wonder if i can exploit it to my advantage... hmm. It just doesn't excite me. I know its just a pre-visualisation render.. but it just looks too cartoony and OTT to be taken remotely seriously. Plus its pretty much all just window dressing for stuff we can already do (but turned up to cartoon levels). The only remotely cool thing is the trooper hanging on to the pipe.. but that hardly has may gameplay implications. I think i've just been burned out on too many OK jedi games.. running around with a lightsaber force pushing stuff has been done to death (JO, JA, Ep1, Ep3, Obi-wan, LegoSW, KOTOR etc..) and just doens't hold the appeal it once did. They need to make a good, gritty game that is the spiritual successor to JK.. make it good with guns and RPG elements, then add in the saber and the force powers... don't base another game solely on force jumping and force pushing...

Monkey Mania Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 You need to quit judging the game by one video. It's just a PRE-RENDERED video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightsaberboy Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 I kinda felt bad for that last stormtrooper, especially how he was begging for mercy after the third time he was pummelled into the floor.... but it still looks sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 You need to quit judging the game by one video. It's just a PRE-RENDERED video! Yeah, it's a pre-rendered video of what LA is aiming to achieve, and we're imagining what they're trying to achieve. EDIT: Btw, has anyone even watched videos of people playing Wii games @ E3? There was no difference between people playing Wii games and people playing PS3 and Xbox360 games. Very little movement at all. The only games on Wii that made you really get into it and move around were the Wii Sports titles and Wario Ware Smooth Moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 They reported on this back at E3 and I even made a thread on it. It looks so much more badass here, though. This is going to be so cool... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toms Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Kinda reminds me of the cell factor trailer.. (and not just for the OTT physics effects) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSeW9NejxLo&search=cell%20factor (though of course for that one you need a Physx card). It also makes me want to go out and grab Psi Ops... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
