I doubt the saves are all in the temp.rec file. But who knows. You try try removing it and see if your saves are still there when you launch the game. You could also try using the search function and search for a save you know the name. Browsing ar...  [Read More]

The first thing I would do is try to reinstall the game. And I remember having a similar error back in JO. I think I corrected it by downloading the latest video card drivers. Did you try that?...  [Read More]

You could always check the audio commentary for that scene, just in case anything interesting was said... ;) That's a pretty good idea - I'll check it out when I have the time....  [Read More]

Of course numerous (off-screen) explanations have been concocted to explain away this problem, such as that they had a "backup hyperdrive" (that must have broken down later or being crappy, like a spare tire, since they still needed Lando t...  [Read More]

The reason why they got there so quick was because of the Force. Duh. I will presume that you are joking, since that doesn't make any sense at all. I'm actually looking for serious answers if you haven't figured by now....  [Read More]

Perhaps the answer is obvious, but I have been thinking about this for some time. How could the Empire arrive at Bespin before Solo? Fett was seen tracking down the Falcon after the departure of the Imperial fleet. Could he "guess" that So...  [Read More]

To make the DOS version work without any bugs (or near) use the program called VDMSound (google it). It lets you run DOS programs on newer systems and it will make the TIE DOS work with a sidewinder joystick....  [Read More]

Releasing a game each year is optimistic. If people want good to great games, they are going to need to wait much longer than that. LA is already releasing more than one game a year. They're not about to start producing high-quality games. Anyway,...  [Read More]

Cynical, but probably true. The question is, will people fall for it a third time? I won't fall, unless they change the engine. And if they don't change it, then we can question LA's producers/designers' sanity. Anyway, I think a new Jedi Knight...  [Read More]

I think it's because not everyone likes Star Wars. Most people I know don't like Star Wars, and most of them reject games like Battlefront. There is some truth in this, and I am 85% sure that this is due to the prequel movies. Let's face it : peopl...  [Read More]

The number of players playing at any time are also much lower than the most popular FPS games. In fact, it's listed at #22 right below [...] the Battlefield 2 demo. I guess that's a really bad sign if it's beaten by a demo :p Personally, I will ne...  [Read More]

The character of Dooku was originally meant to be a female. For some reasons, Lucas obviously decided to use a male instead. While I'm glad that Christopher Lee got the role (he "saves" AotC), I think that a female sith would have been in...  [Read More]

Darth Maul is indeed quite overpowered, in my opinion. Luke is also quite powerful on maps like Death Star with narrow passages. Emperor is cool for his "jump lightning" attack that does some sorts of explosion on the ground. Kind of like...  [Read More]

I want a trench run before anything else. It's just so stupid to make a game that claims to let you play the Star Wars battles any way you want, *including* space battles, and not having a trench run map. I was disappointed by Death Star interior m...  [Read More]

Of course from the moment they decided to include MagnaGuards they should have known that problems would be spawned. Giving them a blaster was the obvious choice, but that completely mess the unit's relation to the movie. Why they didn't include a cl...  [Read More]

I'll have to go with the republic, simply because it's about the only side that really looks different from the original game. I really like the designs for heavy trooper and sniper, in particular. It's also nice to see that their "command skirt...  [Read More]

Hardest for me is Dagobah during Clone Wars era. I don't know why, but I just can't win it as the republic (even with Yoda). I did it with the rebels and it was not too hard. Dagobah is one of the most beautiful map though. The textures just seem t...  [Read More]

I don't mean to bash but Boba Fett doesn't die. In the books, he is put as the most heavily armed mercinary in the galaxy, and he basically blows the sarlac pitt to smitharines. Though after he heals up from the massive damage he took blowing himself...  [Read More]

From favourite to least favourite : V, IV, III, I / II (tie), VI Empire is pretty cool. There's everything you'd want in a SW movie. Huge ground battle (Hoth), nice lightsabre duel, heroes whacking stormies (could city), Boba Fett (not a weird you...  [Read More]

I'm kinda dissapointed with the frigates. Seeing as how some of them are big enough to be considered capital ships (esepiaclly in the Clone Wars era), they could have had entire hangers and command posts in them, making space battles more interesting...  [Read More]
