So who's gotten the Rogue Squadron III Demo?

Well?

Currently playing the demo and seriously the game kicks butt, but it's the TWO player RS2 I'm just as interested in(and the Hoth scene where they come after you is something else)

Edit: Movie scenes are a very nice add-in.

I had to put some cash down for RS3 from my EB...and they give it free.

It has the Hoth mission...and the Star Wars Arcade game.

I played the demo at Wal-Mart. When I got to the X-wing part of the mission, I froze, and started drooling at all the Ties.

Yeah I know that feeling.

Still the game will be out soon and the glory that is RS3 should be there.

Though I have noticed you can now Dogfight with the RS engine...that's the only part I'm a bit wary given that it's a little too twitchy and the reason I liked the comp version is because of the way I could set up my fighter.

And yes I am in complete agreement with Khyron...when the TIEs came into view...this was so much better then the video...truly it gives new meaning to terror when you realize they are after you and you wussy transports.

GRR!

It looks excellent and all... but I don't WANT to reenact the same old thing from the movies every frickin game. The only problem with RS2 was the linearity and resultant lack of replay... adding multiplayer is a step, but if the levels play the same way each time, all I can say is no-one learned from GTA.

All I want is a game IN Star Wars, not OF Star Wars. I've been playing THAT game since X-Wing... except it was MORE original :(

Great game to show your GC-less friends... but in the can in a week, just like RS2.
