Will it slice, will it dice? Will it easily make julian fries? Will it never need sharpening? If I call RIGHT NOW will it come with this handy DL-44 Blaster Pistol at no addition cost (a 5,000 credit value!)?...  [Read More]

Chill out Rumor.. Andy specifically asked people to report to him sites that had links to warez or the beta to be sent to LA's lawyers to be shut down, so he's perfectly in line. Please send a PM to Andy867 with the detailed info. Activision is ju...  [Read More]

I just said that, because we have a policy here that Beta testers have to prove they are who they say they are and not just people who downloaded some warez. Besides, I don't think actual beta testers would be allowed to spill that info on here anywa...  [Read More]

It was more in response to the statement you made right before your last post (the one about George Lucas "not being able to make up his mind"). I thought it would be odd if the entire Imperial Army (ie: the Imperial Commandos/Naval Troope...  [Read More]

True. I would find it odd if the entire Imperial army was limited to operating on the Death Stars (the first Death Star supposedly had only a million personel on board) with the other 1% as TIE Pilots (how many TIEs does the Empire have? thousands? t...  [Read More]

I see what you're saying about the Stormtroopers. I figured the Death Star Troops were pretty much crap troops (since after all, they thought the battle station was impenetrable, so they would just have boring guard duty for months and months). The...  [Read More]

The other problem with the in helmet HUD theory (which is official) is that how was R2D2 then able to delay the troopers in ESB by firing a big smoke cloud at them? Unless of course not all Troopers have built in HUD equipment (infared, etc). A few...  [Read More]

Another theory for Attack of the Clones: Perhaps, since the Republic's various factions seem to use Droids almost exclusively in battle, perhaps the Clonetrooper armor has some kind of built in jamming effect against Droids. We after all, saw very f...  [Read More]

Well there's a few possible explanations that I've thought of over the years about Stormtrooper armor and why it appears so useless: 1) It was originally intended to stop things like bullets or fists and weaker weapons (like riot armor). It could be...  [Read More]

I hope they don't end up just making a scene like this: (near the end of the game) Bad Guy: Okay, go through Door #1 to join the dark side! or go through Door #2 to stay with the crappy light side! Muahhahahah! And that's it. But, who knows......  [Read More]

For saber combat, a good gamepad user could probably handle himself okay, but with guns, the gamepad user is going to have lots of problems against a key+mouse user. He simply won't be able to keep up or be as accurate. Now that said, isn't it possi...  [Read More]

I feel that Christianity is not religion. Rather, it is a relationship with God's son, Jesus. In that sense, how can Jediism be the same religion when they don't even mention Jesus, let alone admit to a relationship? I hear people say that all the...  [Read More]

Yes, it should remain a law. Why? Because while statistically accidents actually INCREASE with seatbelt laws (people feel safer, so many drive more recklessly), it does tend to reduce accident FATALITIES. So more accidents, but fewer deaths. I'm f...  [Read More]
