  1. I'm more excited for this game than I am the DICE LA game. Mainly because I feel this one will be more adventurous in gameplay. Somewhat like an Uncharted while the DICE game will likely be an FPS or Third person shooter.

    Either way I'm still happy Star Wars games are coming sooner than later.

    I just wonder when or if we will ever see a flight combat game. I'd take Rogue Squadron or X-Wing over any other game.

  2. I hope they use the same bunch of designers for the new SW games. Dead Space, tho not my cup of tea but I really like the costume and helmet designs which I think are uber cool!

    I agreed that they should bring back X-Wing or Rogue Squadron..., KOTOR maybe?
