Also I have another question. Were females admitted into the stormtrooper corps or was it just males? Females in the Imperial Forces weren't unheard of. But there was a definate glass ceiling for women. Admiral Daala only rose so high in rank becaus...  [Read More]

I have immensely enjoyed both series, but LOTR really wins without any question for me. I love the detail that Tolkein put into creating not just a story, but a living world, one that keeps on going - and he enthused the entire of Middle-earth with...  [Read More]

There's one guy who said he won't buy it if it doesn't have at least 40 hours of gameplay. Wow. I can't honestly see this game having any more than 20 hours of gameplay, just playing straight through. Luckily there are unlockables, multiple endings,...  [Read More]

Besides, there's only 24 or so days till the final game's release. There's no way they'd be able to 'fix' anything now, even if it was in need of fixing....  [Read More]

I said i reviewed the PS3 demo . here a real picture of TFU on ps3 in HD <snip> They might be slightly unimpressive on a computer monitor, 12 inches away, but they're not designed to be seen up-close. They're designed to be seen 4 ft away,...  [Read More]

The first picture is immensely superior in graphical quality to the second. The first one, although small, doesn't seem to have any AA problems, or visible lines. Each character appears crisp and clear. The lighting is good, and the shadow looks co...  [Read More]

As much as reviews are opinion. Graphics cannot be.. And how you can rate this game as a 5 out 5, is just fanboy, the graphics are going to score extremely low. Because you don't like the graphics doesn't mean other people can't. If he thinks the g...  [Read More]

I just cannot believe you all think this is a great game, besides even the major fail they did with the forces and light saber, the game play is pretty weak.. You're displaying opinion as fact, which really isn't a very good way of getting a point a...  [Read More]
