I'm seeing some love for this type of combat...and that's all well and good, but you'll not be seeing any from me. After seeing the video I like it less than before I saw the video. It reminds me of shooters from ten years ago except in 3D. In my hum...  [Read More]

I have no idea why anyone thinks this is a good idea. I said before, I think its a cop out, and unfortunately I doubt that any forum posts or complaints will make Bioware change their minds. I think if they'd asked what the fans (i.e. their customer...  [Read More]

I agree 100%...seems like a cop out to me by Bioware. You can say the game isn't space focused all you want...but I don't understand how you can have a Star Wars game without full fledged free roaming space content....  [Read More]

Honestly, I'm sure the item of how their main character holds his lightsaber was the last thing on their minds when they were developing the game. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it probably never even crossed their minds. Like I said...a lightsaber...  [Read More]

Pure speculation...but I would think it is more something she and Starkiller chose as opposed to something they were trained to do. I watched a little bit of the Clone Wars before I deemed it garbage (personal opinion please don't shoot me if you lik...  [Read More]

I'm sure they could have done it anyway they chose...the grip is actually a variation of the Shien lightsaber form. (I know..I just nerded the discussion up about ten points..sorry I do that from time to time.)...  [Read More]

I was merely playing devil's advocate with my comment about giving folks a choice between the saber style. I don't have a problem with the backhand style as I've stated previously and in the end imho it doesn't make a difference in the game to me. A...  [Read More]

Yeah I know I'm bumping of topic again but I would like to get this straight. You got rid of a gaming console with over 5000 games released for it, huge customer list and lot's of good fun because the animations in your cutscenes weren't as nice as t...  [Read More]

I must agree about the cutscenes. They do come out rather stiff. Hence the reason I got rid of my PS2 long ago :) more specifically when Halo came out and I haven't gone back to Sony since, but that I think is another thread. @topic: someone stated...  [Read More]

I personally like that backhanded grip...enough that I was going to have a Jedi in one of my fanfics use it, but I wrote about 2 chapters and haven't gone much further with the story :) lol...but anyway...yeah I like it, don't have a problem with it...  [Read More]

I do have a problem with this. It's not that the majority of Muslims are extremist, it's that the Muslim extremists are Muslim. The Mosque would very much be empowering for their cause as much as it would be empowering for moderate Muslims. Think a...  [Read More]

A solid point about KOTOR Miltiades and I think they Jedi thing is probably what drew people to KOTOR and will indeed by the thing that draws many SW fans to TOR. As far as MMO players go..I think the biggest thing they have to overcome is Star Wars...  [Read More]

I don't think that Bioware has to innovate anything in order to make this game a success. Why would they go out on a limb and try and design something completely new when they don't have to? All they have to do is do it in an outstanding fashion and...  [Read More]

It's a bit too pricey imo, I probably won't pay for it if they market it at the rumored $150.00 price. Not enough to attract me to drop that kind of cash when I'd much rather put it toward a purchase of the slim 360....  [Read More]
