I really missed not being able to swim in Jedi Outcast. In both JK and MotS there were some decently designed underwater sections for exploration, some of which offered up secrets, or alternative avenues to gain access to other areas. Now...with the...  [Read More]

If it was changed, they must have had a good reason to do so. It seems obvious that different stances were planned (and were perhaps even included in the game up to a point), but perhaps there were balancing issues for the early levels. If would be i...  [Read More]

You know...having played Elite Force 2, it was actually refreshing seeing the women in proper uniforms, and everything. The alien 'love interest' in the scimpy outfit seemed more like a bimbo by comparison, and didn't really seem to 'fit'. That comes...  [Read More]

Elite Force II did look nice...they did some nice work considering it's still the Q3 engine underneath. From the most recent screenshots that were released, I think JA looks every bit as good. The lighting is particularly nice in some of those scree...  [Read More]

Originally posted by txa1265 The ATI Mobility 9000 will surely run things fine, as JA is not a DX9 game or anything. However, it is an 'older' component, compared with the ATI mobility 9600 (which supposedly rocks), and the nVidia 4200 (Ti core) and...  [Read More]

I've got a life too...but I still intend to replay JK and Outcast, if I have the time. I always like to replay the originals before I get a sequel, if I have the time. I do have a few things to do though, so I'll have to see how it goes. ;)...  [Read More]

Yes, in JO you had to go into the menu and 'enable' dismemberment, which then allowed you to see hands and arms being cut off. Raven have already said that by default JA will have similar dismemberment to that shown in the movies (i.e., arms and hand...  [Read More]

Yes, Valo, I've puzzled a bit over that screenshot ever since I saw it. I can't see why the saber would be in his left hand - unless he had twin sabers and threw one...but from recent articles I've read I don't believe you have twin sabers by the tim...  [Read More]

It's unfortunate it wasn't included for JA...but we'll have to see exactly what the modders can do - if they are so inclined. I just see this as another aspect of 'chocie' that is more relevant in any kind of game that allows you to 'customise' your...  [Read More]
