so who's looking forward to the original trilogy coming out the same day as SWB??

It's a pretty big F'n deal.. I can't wait either, damn lucasarts is gonna make bank next month.. a small portion of it my hard earned money.

That's what I get for being a geek I guess :atat:

By the way, where in California do you live? I'm a stalker and I will find you, rape you, then kill you. Haha j/k.

Wow ! I didnt know theyd re-done Jabba ! Cool ! The inserted Palpy thing looks awesome ! With the asteroid chase, that actually was in there right from the start, youa ctually see the tie pilot eject before it hits the asteroid,,,,,that is what that screenie is of :)

*cant wait for the OT DVDs*

yeah, as much as I was hoping this wasnt the case, I have seen enough leaked screenies(not just that AICN one) to confirm it... I would like to hear GLs explanation :D

*remembers obi wan saying, "he ceased to be anakin skywalker and became Darth Vader"*

maybe anakin actually *dies* before he becomes robocop-ified. I was always assuming he was still alive in some way... ??? who knows....

I got to ask anyway. Are you going to buy the Trilogy on the same day as well?

If so are you going to go to Best Buy for their release parties? I think they are doing it at midnight. If you do go there plan on the crowd looking like this

Yep i'm gonna go and wait outside Costco in order to get it a lot cheaper than anywhere else, plus if they do it like last year's indiana jones with the in store coupon then i'll get it for even less. I think i got it for like $29.99 plus tax, so about 32 dollars or so.

On amazon.com you can get the three trilogy movies on DVD and Star Wars Battlefront for $100. I've got $100 saved up so most likely I'll go for this deal. :D

thats not that good since its priced at 40 bucks (trilogy) at some places, and some other game sources have battlefront priced at -50 bucks.

YOU'RE WASTING $10 ! Oh noes!
but you save a lot of trouble...

Hrmmm, personally, I'm going to wait for all 6 movies to be released. I already have the Original (None of that Special Edition Stuff) trilogy on VHS, so that tides me over.

BattleFront is No. 1 at the Mo. :)

I dont tihnk they will sell all 6 together. I orginally thought ,which is why I was gonna wait for after ep3. but now I'm not so sure. I heard there will be an empty part in the dvd box where you can slide in the three prequels.

so that means they wont sell all six together after ep3 right? like, a three disc set for Ot and a 3 disc set for Prequel. no melding an all sixer. right?

Do you guys think the release of the OT will have any effect on getting the word/hype out about BF? Cuz I think it will definately get some more people back into SW and want to buy this game.
