Looks like the greatest Star Wars game will remain Jedi knight II

 

[iv-tecman]

I still think dark forces II Jedi knight was the best fps set in the star wars universe. Superb game.

 

[kmetek]

this one?

STAR WARS™ JEDI KNIGHT: DARK FORCES II

?

I'm guessing E3 and Gamescom will have fresh reveals, no chance for hype is going to passed up with this franchise.

Onky 6 month's dev time left though, I expect gameplay footage soon....

 

[JUMPURS]

Would rather they kept it in third person like the previous games.

 

[Warbie]

No space battles

No SP campaign

No Prequel content

All bonuses for me

6 months of dev time before release, 6 months after that on game breaking patches

I'm spoooo tempted to pre-order it but I refuse to pay 50 quid for a pc game. I thought it might have space battles if there's spaceships? I was hopeful you might have a combination where there are ships in space who could support ground troops but it takes time to get there.

they've specifically said theres no space combat.

You can abandon your hopes of X-Wing and Tie fighter battles now

Agreed - in 1995 it was way ahead of its time.

Still confused by BF3 - seems to be going the same way as average film-licensed games. Then again I don't think I really thought much of the earlier BF games - probably the weakest in the SW gaming universe.

It really does hurt.

I don't care it not having single player though, a little worried, however, that there are only 6 months until release

I thought the trailer showed Y-wings, unless it's like a bomber strike type thing.

 

[Wyrdo]

There are vehicles, just not in space

Cdkeys had it and might still for about £28 on pc

 

[mikeym]

I want to get it on ps4 as a digital download but such a huge difference in best prices between ps4 and pc...

 

[kmetek]

28 for pc = no resell.
45 for ps4 = resell value, you can sell it in month or two for 25-30 or so....

This isn't Battlefront 3. Notice the '3' missing from the box art?

That's why I won't buy digital games on console. They cost too much. Usually £10-20 more than a physical copy and you're then stuck with them.

 

[McBain]

Best bet for digital is to have a US account and buy the $50 cards, normally works out cheaper. I agree the prices for digital are a bit of a joke though.
