Here we go again. :)

A new trailer to drool over. ;)

Enjoy! (http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swempireatwar/trailer.html).

It's in Quicktime.


And unless I'm not completly sounddef, I believe the voice of Vader will be none other than James Earl Jones. :)
Either that or they've found someone with a nice resemblance.

It was a good trailor. Wish the planets were not so clumped together though.

It was a nice vid but the planets where bound to be close. I mean 80 planets and only so much space.

Solution: Make space larger. ;)

Alternate solution: Make planet's smaller. :D

Nope, it's the Tie Advanced.

This is a Tie Scout:

I liked the first one better but this had a small touch of gameplay in it with the moving of a small group of troops....

The first one had a more movie feel though.

It could just be an untextured planet as the code used could still be alpha..but who knows

Woooooow! They're really doing a nice job with EaW. Can't wait to play it! :D Those space battles are going to be great! Not saying Star Wars: Warlords (Homeworld 2 mod) isn't good, just the larger engagements get really skippy on my computer...

It's a pretty good Vader voice methinks. I wonder if it is the same guy LucasArts always uses to do his voice or someone different?

Maybe the galaxy map can be zoomed in or out to make it look like more space between the planets? I dunno.

And the Tie Advanced in the trailer looks like an X1, Vader's prototype, not the mass produced version that appears in Tie Fighter, so I'm guessing that's Vader as a hero unit in space.

Yeah, I thought the Vader voice sounded pretty good. Almost like the real voice, but you can still tell that it isn't the real voice.

Well, after listening more too it, I doubt it's the real voice, but the part where we see him up close in the dark, has to be the real voice, and quite possibly 2 sound clips mixed together to form a new sentence. I just haven't been able to figure out where from the films it's taken from yet.

Its more likely its the real voice. He did afterall act in Tiberian Sun as General Solomon. So its very possible they got him to do the voice as he would know the Petro people.

Usually the actos don't do their voice in video games, though I guess there are some exceptions to that. But I still think it was a voice actor.

It would be good marketing from their part.

"James Earl Jones as the voice of Darth Vader"

I mean, Battle for Middle Earth used a lot of actors from the movies (all the Hobbits, etc.)

Well, listen carefully to it.

The first time you hear Vaders voice, it doesn't sound exactly right.
The second time I am dead sure it's Jones' voice we hear, but I'm also pretty sure it's 2 clips fused together. Probably from the movies, but I can't quite put my finger from where. The last time we hear him, it's very hard to tell again, since basically he just says "FIRE!". :p

Somebody needs to go back and see how the voice of Vader from Tie Fighter sounds and compare it to this one.

Tie Fighter was an old flight sim game. That featured Darth Vader in the campaign, during a few cutscenes and in game. I dont think that James Earl Jones is doing the voice for EaW, but if he was that would be amazing.
