Hmmm... Special Edition... ok, possible, but lots of special editions come only AFTER the game is released, because all the extra footage and goodies have to be assembled first, and since every developer wants to put out a game as fast as possible......  [Read More]

In what way is forcing customers to buy a DVD drive different, from forcing them to buy a new videocard?? If you wanna play all games, you have to have a relatively new videocard. Nobody complains about that :) So why complain about games being rele...  [Read More]

But if all games are released on DVD, the price WILL drop. The demand will be higher, so the price will rise first, then the production capacity of DVDs is increased, the prices will drop and there you have it: cheap DVD releasing ;) :D Well 2 CDs i...  [Read More]

Nah, Half-Life and Doom III can expect serious competition. JA is one of those games that has a large fanbase, because it's a Star Wars game!! People will buy it anyway :) So I don't think JA really has to suffer from HL2 or Doom III. Personally, I'm...  [Read More]

The point is, that developers can't work for free!! They have to get paid! So only very succesful games (or games from very rich developers, like EA) get continuous updates :( If there really would be such a game, it would require a monthly fee I'm...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Rockstar however in practise if the difference between levels was little then we would see people walking around with every single force power at low, but still effective levels... Not if you make the difference in mana cost r...  [Read More]

Whoa, first of all: great post :thumbsup: keep 'em coming!! And I agree with you mostly, although I never seriously thought about this matter. I do think however, that 4 levels would be too much. Why do we need more levels, if they can make the 3 le...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Solo4114 To me, they just aren't Star Wars, and if I play a Star Wars game, I want a Star Wars experience. So, if the Yuzhan Vong were in the game, how would I interact with it? I agree with you for 100% :D I never read any SW...  [Read More]
Originally posted by HaruGlory89 How? Personally, I think that players can interact with objects and shoot them. Like levitating a box and throwing it at them. No you won't be able to this I think... And who the f*ck are the Yuuzhan Vong?? Some EU...  [Read More]

I don't mind seeing more trailers... I don't care for what purpose they release a trailer, it's just that I want to see more footage before the game comes out! I think Raven/LA is doing a great job with the info on the LA JA site, some new screens, m...  [Read More]
