It may seem like it would be a politically appropriate thing to do, but I would be genuinely surprised if Austrailia joined with the US in my lifetime. Australia would have to give up their way of government, among other things. I doubt that the peop...  [Read More]

I stopped listening to PC Gamer when they got their new management. Those mags used to be a good 3cm thick, but now they're like 0.5cm and they're all ads. Plus the reviewers aren't as good as the old crew. Besides, E3 had so much to show this year,...  [Read More]
It may turn out that Drain would actually become weaker as a result of the change (although unlikely :( ). The force cost could be huge, for example, and it might not take away more than, say, 15 hp. Maybe. I think we need to wait for the game to com...  [Read More]

The way I look at it, good EU doesn't go against anything put forth in the movies. Great EU doesn't go against the movies or other (good) EU. The rest is all not good. Bloodriot sez: I dunno... sometimes it's hard to come up with good ideas that don...  [Read More]

Prime sez: What an interesting set of moral standards you have! In a few countries, possibly including Germany, those are, in fact, the legal standards. Media watchdog groups in these countries make sure that no human-beings are killed in computer...  [Read More]

Kyle changed a lot from the earlier games to JO. His whole "former imp" storyline was sort of forgotten. Jan has always been looking out for Kyle throughout the series. She was who convinced Mon Mothma to let Kyle work for the Rebels (at le...  [Read More]

That would be a neat idea for an RPG, but for JA I think it would be too limited and would get to a point where if you havn't finished the game, you don't have a chance....  [Read More]

I have a dumb question: Is Force Lightning actually electricity or is it just force "magic"? It seems to me that Yoda channelling an actual lightning bolt is pretty far out; if it was just "the force" it would make more sense, I t...  [Read More]

I don't like the idea, simply because I'm no fan of Ep.II. I didn't like the way it felt. Plus, I don't really want to see lightning as much in JA anyway. Of course, this is just my own opinion, and I'm in something of a minority. As long as the game...  [Read More]

The only problem with that is you will undoubtedly be accused of being an "anti-american" or a "hippy" by the unwashed hordes of voters who don't care to get the facts, they would rather listen to George Dubya tell them what is re...  [Read More]

I agree that tends to be a problem. Capcom isn't a good example though, they were still riding the street fighter series when RE1 came out, so it's not like they were the little fish in a big pond. Games like that don't balance SW style with good ga...  [Read More]

Simon Jeffries' poo in a Star Wars box Shall we start the bidding at, say, $750? To me, the main point of this forum is to get an idea of what other people want in Jedi Academy, and to let them know what I want. Sure, most of it won't ever get used...  [Read More]
I love these little breaks from the discussion. They show us all just how ignorant some people can be. I like the idea of force move, don't get me wrong, I just don't like moving and zapping all at the same time, that's all. You know what I would l...  [Read More]
Welcome to the forum. There are certain rules of conduct we follow here, may I suggest you study them? I didn't like the way Dooku could move things at the same time as he shocked them. Maybe I'm just biased because I didn't like Dooku as a charac...  [Read More]

A 'Force Projection' skill would be nice, but i dont see it fitting in well with the Jedi mythos. A portable hologram would be cool, drop a little emitter on a wall or something and it sends an AI controlled replica of you running around the level fo...  [Read More]

That's some good news! :o Whew! I think that the lightsabers should have an increased effectiveness against guns in MP. It seems to me that if I put my defense up to level 3, I can still deflect only a small minority of the shots coming at me. Plus,...  [Read More]

Well, the collision detection system that is supposed to be implemented in JA might be able to solve that problem. It could be made so that light hits bounce off after they strike, like when Luke hit Vader in the shoulder. If some kind of "smart...  [Read More]

Map scale is always a problem. In the JA trailer, there are a few outdoor arenas (Tatooine) and they look a lot like the ones from Half-Life: tight little area surrounded by cliffs. Ghost Recon had one of the best outdoor map systems I've ever seen i...  [Read More]

The cutscenes are very important to me. In JO, most of the cutscenes dealt with Kyle Katarn, whom you play as the whole game. A cutscene seems unneccesary if it deals with the protagonist; the story could be moved along through the gameplay. I think...  [Read More]

This isn't quite on topic, but in one of the books, Tales From the Empire, I think, force choke isn't described so much as a physical choke, but more like a force acting on the respiratory system in general. Um... also, personally, I don't think of...  [Read More]
