In the end of the game, seeing as this is between ep 3 and 4,shouldn't the apprentice die then? I mean someone that strong in the force would have at least been part of the movies story.
I hope they won't do some lame "and then he went away and lived a happy redeemed life on a nice comfy little planet with a pet robot and that imperial whatsherrank whatshername".
He should either die or at least be cut off from the force, right?

Maybe not necessarily dead, but they definitely have to make him less of a player, somewhat. In KotOR they just made Revan run away, you know?

No offense, but it looks like a slightly updated BFII :P

I think I'm going to stick with the 360 version.

Well, since the Wii is the only console I have, It's good enough for me. Plus, the gameplay will hopefully more than make up for it.

Yeah, the Wii is the only console I have too. However I'm pretty happy because before last year I never owned any console and my old computer could barely run the simplest games, so graphics will probably never be a problem for me.

Humph. I guess since our family doesn't have any consoles besides the X-Box (no, not the 360) I better just click "no". sigh...

I chose "No" since I don't have any of those consoles. I won't be buying any of them either. Fortunately, two of my friends have the Nintendo Wii and they plan (were convinced by me) on getting the game. :)

Doubtful, unless it's like a PS2 port. The PC doesn't have the capabilities for some of the physics engines, plus Lucasarts recently laid off lots of workers that were working on TFU. So at this point our hope of a PC port is pretty much gone.

Euphoria engine = wow.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euphoria_(software)

Basically, the engine creates anims as it goes along. I find that amazing, I don't know about anyone else.

Yeah, the Euphoria engine is amazing. The way that people react when you hit them in GTA IV is sooo cool.

Edit: on a more on-topic note, I'm really glad Lucasarts got around to fixing the framerate for the 360/PS3 version. Now that I have a 360 I'll download the demo that comes out this month and see if the full game is worth buying.

I just thought of something. If someone were to mix the capabilities of the frostbite and euphoria engines, that would make for one awesome game. If that's even possible, of course. Frostbite's terrain destruction abilities mixed with euphoria's fluid character anims would be amazing.

On topic: The demo comes out this month? Woo!!

And if we all had Cray supercomputers to play games on, that'd be fantastic!

You never know. I hope lucasarts doesn't botch the story on this game. The odds IMO of the protagonist surviving are pretty much nil, if only to keep the story between the movies intact. There's so much they could do right, but murphy has a way of interfering.
