Why does LucasArts

Post by GUARD!AN »

Keep making games based on the gay clone wars cartoon series?

http://lucasarts.com/games/theclonewars_republicheroes/

It is such a waste of time and game designers.

I suppose at least this one is going to be on PC as well, with possibly a multiplayer aspect?

Republic Commandos was amazing, I don't know why they don't dish out a sequel for that. It sold well enough.

Personally, I think the majority of Lucas Arts games are shitty now anyways, the last good one I can honestly remember playing was KotOR2. Then again, I'm partial to the 90's point-and-click Lucas Arts adventure games like Day of the Tentacle.

I was really drooling over the sequel to Full Throttle, but the 'Powers that be' at LucasArts file 13-ed it.

meh...

Ditto; I'm still waiting on Monkey Island 5 honestly; if they ever make it, hopefully it won't be completely awful like Escape from Monkey Island was. Good thing for "Tales of Monkey Island" and "Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition" coming out soon though, at least the series isn't dead.

i totally agree!

instead of just making a proper multiplayer game that includes saber combat such as the basic egoshooter viewpoints they keep making shitty games that are like license games from movies(bullshit cheap gameplay)

Battlefront 2 was kinda cool but the reborn boss combat aspects are just total crap...

Let's just keep wishing for another reborn boss knight like game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's what made JK special, adding lightsabers to what would have otherwise been just another generic shooter.

Uniqueness is my biggest problem with shooters, that's why I freak the hell out everytime someone says "Halo is the best game ever." because it's the most bland and generic sci-fi shooter i've ever played.

I always liked online games because of the people to be honest though. I mean think about UJ back in it's prime, like 03-06, I used to be able to spend hours on the U not even dueling, just fooling around and talking to people.



Jesus guard, I've known you for a long damn time, as far as the internet gos anyway.
