Whenever people start talking about an "anti-religious" movement here, I ask them to reconsider how the black vote got Obama elected, and that constituency is largely religious, and conservative on some social issues (Ie: anti-gay marriage)...  [Read More]

Stylistically, yes, ROTJ drops this as another of the hints that Luke is "becoming more like Vader" without bashing us over the head and saying "oh no, this is a DARK SIDE POWER!!!" But otherwise, the main point is that Luke is m...  [Read More]

I think it's just a game mechanic coming out of the EU that people have tried to read back into the movies. It just doesn't work (and I should add that wookieepedia isn't canon). Anyway, those Gammoreans did die, each had a family, and were just a...  [Read More]

Pity... I mean yeah, doing it for consoles they really only have to test a handful of systems, whereas with the PC they have to test a lot more to account for the diversity of hardware. But then they have this thing called "patches" (I nev...  [Read More]

A clone is not "the same thing" (literally, like some kind of identity crisis) it's just an identical twin of whatever. So as long as the original was conceived without defects, there shouldn't be a problem with the clone (at least at the t...  [Read More]

Two things I need for gaming: computer power and money. Vista costs money = less money for games Vista uses higher processing power and system resources = less for games Now true, you say, new games require greater computers than older games, but...  [Read More]

I think it's pretty silly... thousands and thousands of Jedi and none of them "accidentally" figure out how to turn into ghosts, but Qui Gon does? And yet, Anakin can still do it without this magical "training" that somehow Obi-Wa...  [Read More]

Wow, somebody cares! Thanks, and I'm sorry, the big change for me in the past two years has been grad school. Very little free time compared to what I used to have for pc games. That and for a few months I couldn't even get FTP to work AT ALL, which...  [Read More]

Unless it's got the exact same controls as JK I fear it wouldn't be suitable for PC in that way (like Episode III as someone mentioned above), I know I wouldn't want to play it for PC if the controls suck... I've seen it for Devil May Cry 3, it's an...  [Read More]

Heh, I see, it's coming to PSP and DS as well. Yes, those requirements must be FAR too high... (sarcasm). ;) Perhaps they're too lazy to input the ability to dial down the graphics and such? (if the PS2 version will be significantly dumbed down to...  [Read More]

I still can't quite fathom how anyone can honestly say the 2004 editions "look better." It reminds me of a bad colorization job done on a black and white film! I bet the folks who claim to prefer the 2004 editions haven't seen the original...  [Read More]

Very good summary, Kurgan. :) The new Star Wars original trilogy DVD's do look quite good, better than even the Star Wars Definitive Collection laserdisk set, which itself looks good. Many were surprised but just how good these DVD's look when they b...  [Read More]
