I think it should come out on all of them, why would it only come out on one?

I agree with General Havok, why not all?

I decided to be a jerk and vote for all of them, I just find the question stupid. They should try to make the game for all the next gen systems, unless it means compromised quality.

first he SHOULDENT of done PC cuz nearly 50% of games from a series that have already gone on PC the next will unless they make a PC2 lol

and nearly 70% of games ARE remade to GO on PC but with some upgraded multiplayer stuff so if it dont go on PC just you wait, it'll come out later with more mutiplayer benifits :)

trust me im a gamer!

Trust me I'm a gamer!


Most of us are...
But when considering the PC2 { :confused: }, how about the Windows Vista? It's completely new, and sort of like a major upgrade. Everybody knows it's Godawfully slow, so if it does come out LATER on PC, it should have compatibility with both XP, Vista, and Mac. I don't care either way, as long as it eventually comes out on PC, I'm fine!

Anyone who bought Vista is a fool, DX10 isnt worth it, its slower and the whole GFW concept failed

It should be released for all the next gen consoles and the PC. They would be wasting money by releasing it for X-Box, and I doubt the game would be as exciting on the Wii.

I can see Hero Assault doing pretty good on the Wii.

If SWBF3 comes out, its a given that it'll be out for the consoles. That's where the money is to be made. PC Gamers are a dedicated lot.. but the money in the gaming industry is made in the consoles. LA has to make the decision as to whether it'll be worth it to them to invest money into the PC version. That decision has to be based on whether they can make money in doing so. They're not in the business to do us all a favor and release it on as many platforms as possible.

I play both consoles and PC. PC always far outweighs the console versions of the games IMO. The consoles are more stable. They are machines built for gaming and the developers know what kind of hardware the end user has... because they're all the same consoles.

With that said.. I've always enjoyed the PC versions better because if you have a dynamite machine.. you can dial the graphics up to way beyond what the consoles can do with little to no lag in gameplay. In developing a game for PC, the developers don't know what hardware the end user is going to have... They deal with more compatibility issues than anything else.

Is it worth investing money in SWBF3 for PC? I say yes. I think loyalty to their gaming base means something in this world. They'd be doing themselves a favor if they look at the long term. Gamers are getting older and older. Adults don't usually have consoles. Although some do... most have PC's.. and are willing to invest money in a good gaming rig to play video games. Either LA wants a share of that market.. or they dont. Loyalty to there ENTIRE fan base would go a long way in reputation for their company.

As always, you've put it very nicely indeed. You have good insight into LA's mindset, but we can't really tell what their motive is. It would depend on whether or not they're interested in just making money or expending more time and making slightly more money with a boost to their reputation. I could see why the delay in its production would deter them from making it for the PC, however. Assuming that they're going to release it for all systems at once.
True, the Xbox version of SWBF3 probably wouldn't have as much thunder. And possibly not for the Wii, either. If they're looking for something like Hero Assault, there are games which focus solely on Jedi combat. I can see it being much more impressive on PS2, 3, or PSP.

How does being on a Sony console make it a better game, leave your fanboyism out of this

I don't even own any Sony system. I'm just saying that the newer systems (Oh, forgive me, I left out the 360, and screw the PS2) would probably get a better reception. Perhaps they could stick with the original systems and all those more advanced.
Glad your unnecessarily obnoxious caused some revision to my comments?

The thing is, if you buy a new PC and use Windows XP, it's much faster, more efficient, and you don't really lose anything except pointless new interfaces. Screw the Vista.

Sorry but the orginal xbox is dead, its last games were in 2006, I think it must be on next-gen systems.

The main reason I think they still make games for PS2 while they stopped making Xbox games a long time ago is because a lot of people still own PS2's and they don't want to go out and keep getting better consoles to play a new game, that and sony has to have everything.

I still have and use my Xbox. I voted for both, PS2 and Xbox, mainly because that is all that I have.

Screw having it on the older systems! I have a ps2 and I have to say that making the Swbf3 for ps2 is like making Battlefront 1,2 and 3 for NES. Ps2 can't handle it, xbox might, and ps3 is slow. I'm thinking physics optional card for pc. Xb 360 is the only one that could possibly handle it, besides pc.
BTW, I voted ps2

Just pretend all the votes for the original Xbox are votes for PC, otherwise they're wasted votes XD

they don't make games for Xbox anymore. The only reason PS2 is still supported is because Sony knows PS3 is still a waste of space. Needs some games, lol...

hey don't make games for Xbox anymore.
Unfortunately, you are correct. I certainly wish that they did because the console really isn't all that old. What is it 5 or 6 years old? The developers should realize that not everyone has upgraded to the next-gen consoles.

then they should stop offering new consoles, and new games, so that you continue to play with the same quality of games....

PS3, Xbox 360 but most importantly, the PC. I think the Wii has about as much chance of getting SWBF3 as the f*cking SNES so why that was on the list and PC wasn't I have no idea.

hey they're dumbing down the graphics of The Force Unleashed to put it on Wii, PS2, etc...you never know, lol. I still wouldn't get it for the Wii though. XD

hmph, if it ever comes out on wii it will be so lame (graphics) from what I've seen of the Wii the best graphics I've seen were about as good as Jedi Outcast on a medium setting (no offense; I hope)

lol, its graphics are way better than that, you need to start looking at some screenies XD. it beats all the last gen consoles by a fair bit, it's just not HD.

oh...it must the low resolution and lowered graphics (if that's even possible) or something, or it might've just been the game

Yes... of course, the PC will always rock when it comes to graphics, because whenever you need better graphics, instead of buying another console you just update the video card :D

In the age of multiple video cards for 1 system... the cost can climb well beyond that. But your point is dead on. The better graphics are coming with a higher price tag when it comes to PC... that's for sure.
