Ugh I just shuddered! Don't give George any ideas!

Playing Force Unleashed 1 right now with the kids... its totally different than the PC game Jedi Outcast... there I felt I was doing moves, here I'm doing "button combos"...

I own 2... should I skip it? heheh

I vote for a combination of Privateer and X Wing Alliance :p
But any space combat game in the vein of the old X Wing and Tie Fighter series would be heaven!

I did read somewhere that there were cues pointing at a Bobba Fett game instead, which does not sound so good. The last time a Bobba Fett game was attempted was on GameCube I believe, and its does not seem to have stayed in the memories of many... I would be afraid of seeing yet another The Force Unleashed relabelled The Jetpack Unleashed. We'll see. The rumour says we should head about it at or just before the E3, but then again there has been a rumour that a new cool Star Wars game was coming before every E3, including rumours saying "X Wing is back", and instead we got either nothing or stuff like Star Wars Kinect... yay...

XWA under a modern engine is the minimum for me.
FlyingMonkey, I hear you on the privateer part (or we can say elite, or freelancer).
Would be great to have the ability to roam the galaxy, dock in stations, improve ships, astrodroids (or buy new ones), haul cargo, decide to help the empire or the alliance, join either navy if you want to (to drive ships which shoudn't be available on the free market, like the x-wing or the tie fighter), or just freelance in a Han Solo style with some smuggling... etc.
Which I do not think we need:
- real physics (its Star Wars anyway, xwa flight model was good enough).
- Too much rpg with you pilot (I mean, if you have more skillpoints you can turn faster... let my eyes and joystick work on that).
- Too much micromanagement (no, I do not want to see 10 types of lasers, 20 types of engines on the same ship. I wouldn't even allow to do changes to the standard military design ships. Corelian transporters are in a different league ).
- Too much rpg on the political side (no need for player factions, the good old alliance-empire-natural combo is fine, crime is a different question.
Sorry I got carried away too much, as I sad, XWA under a new engine and better multiplayer would do it for me.
Daydreaming? Maybe, but its allowed, is it?
Oh and sorry for my English.

A new XWA would be good. A Skyrim clone set on Tatooine where you are some whiny farm boy "trying to get off this rock" to join the rebellion (or Empire) would be even better. Actually, just a Star Wars version of Precursors would be faaaantastic.

I will probably ignore the MMO or 3rd person lightsaber button masher that will most likely materialise.

I totally agree with you Staniol!

But... it really looks like the Bobba Fett game is on instead:

You can still dream on that you'll play Bobba Fett in his space ship, but I'm more inclined to think that they'll give us a shooter... *sigh*. Fingers cross though, not long until we know.

It's looking like 1313 will be a new bounty hunter, not Fett necessarily. That way there's no canon to trip over.

Anyway, the problem with TFU 2 is, unlike 1, it's set itself up for a 3 (the story ends way too vaguely). The way they have it start is interesting enough, but it sort of loses its way. Of course, it's also a LOT shorter.
The combat seemed a bit better, things seemed easier to do (fewer hold this, then press this AND this), but it's still a button masher. Not Jedi Knight series at all.
So, as with many games out there, the sequel picks a couple of areas to improve and the rest is pretty lackluster.




The Jedi Master

I'd like to see a capital ship sim from the SW universe, something like Homeworld 2. HW2 was excellent, IMO! And then I'd like to see another game in the Jedi Knight series. JKII: Jedi Outcast is one of my favourite SW games of all time!

1313 is so meh. Way to dissapoint, Lucasfail!

Someone needs to invent a Time Machine, go back in time and abduct George Lucas from 1983, bring him back and ask him--what the hell has happened? Or, better yet, don't let him see, lock him up in a sweatshop and make him produce some quality again.

Didn't he retire from the SW stuff last year? I think things have gone to crap (gamewise) ever since turning things over to other people. SW games used to be so good, but the last few years they've just been one dimensional.
