Originally posted by shock ~ unnamed <--- old fart as well (26). That's why I can really appreciate what they have done, I was around and played all the previous games based on the SW franchise and seen just how utterly primitive they are (even... [Read More]
Great post Shock. I have been blasted several times on thse forums for supporting Raven. Personally, I think Raven made a great game in JO, and I expect bigger and better things with JA. I think the lightsaber combat is great in JO, and the SP game d... [Read More]
Originally posted by Jolts what is everyones version of true to the movies saber combat? I hear people say but no one has defined it. I don't know about other people, but for me movie lightsaber fighting is all about lightning quick attacks and coun... [Read More]
Originally posted by Kurgan I guess we could speculate that Obi-Wan was using a cheap-o padawan's saber, one that wasn't as water resistent as the one he uses later. He did lose his saber down a shaft in TPM after all. My theory always was that ther... [Read More]

Originally posted by Emon One other thing. I also distinctly remember JO's trailer showing some bits of sloppy saber combat... I remember this as well. I only saw the movie after I had played the game. I remember thinking that the clip wasn't a very... [Read More]
Hell, I was pretty happy the way the saber was in JO. Of course it isn't going to be exactly like the movies, but it never will be. Sacrifices have to be made for gameplay reasons. I like that it isn't complicated to use. Then I can focus on my strat... [Read More]
Originally posted by Luc Solar Manual blocking would be cool especially in MP. From the clip, I get a sense that there won't be manual blocking in JA. Apart from some different moves, the lightsaber combat seems quite similar to JO. Which is fine wi... [Read More]
I'm not a big fan of double bladed lightsabers, so as long I can stick with my single blade, I'll be happy. Other than that, the game looks pretty good.... [Read More]

Originally posted by Kurgan I would also like to point out to those complaining about the power of JK2's saber throw in SP, there were many situations against saber wielding enemies, bosses, etc that the saber throw greatly weakened... considering t... [Read More]
