quite like the look of this game. When you get it and have a bash would you mind posting your thoughts.

Cheers Luke
 
Even after the demo im still interested to see how this will turn out.

Post yourr thoughts when you get it, and screenshots if you have time.
 
ive heard good things about it, im expecting it to be fun, not sure whether it will be amazing though.

im more lookin forward to the C&C First Decade collection, those were sweet games!
 
Not sure about this now. Few negative comments on:

Also 1st patch is already out:

Basically sounds as though the demo pretty much showed you all of what the game is about. Full release is just more units/content/locations and approx 27 single player missions.

The thing that bothered me most about the demo was that the control interface seemed to be more complex than it needed (just a simple CnC style icon interface would have been perfect).

Important PC release for Lucasarts though as if it fails to sell well could most probably be the last PC release for a while.
 
single player missions ? i thought the idea was that u were dumped in the galaxy and had to win ? (ie take a planet... loose 2 planets over there... play until u win, loose or get bored)

Nothing else on the PC in the pipeline apart from vague rumours about KOTR3 & Jedi Knight4.

Consoles are receiving more attention from them due to better sales/less piracy.
 
79% thats pretty much what I was expecting after playing the demo, but I think I will check it out anyway, its only a few percent out of being a good score.

79%?! thats a poor review in my books, i was expecting it to be more nearer the high eighties.

We had this argument a while back about PC Gamer and PC Zone scoring, majority of us tend to trust Zone over Gamer for reviews at times.

Will still buy it and wait and see what mark Zone gives it.

yeah i do no gamer have really gone down in a lot of peoples estimates in recent years, they seem to have some right gimps writing for them nowadays.
 
My copy has been posted and should hopefully be here tomorrow. I liked the demo and am looking forward to playing the full game, looks like it could be another love it or hate it Star Wars game going by the reviews. Be a change from playing BF2 and Guild Wars all the time anyway.
 
Looking forward to playing it tomorrow night.

Enjoyed the demo - even though there was a few little issues it seemed very good - especially the galactic conquest mode. :D
