That picture of the ISD over the city is awesome. I want this now

I actually think the ISD was over the city for the Theed Rebellion, you know, where the 501st put down the old queen whom has harboring Jedi Fugitives and replace her.

Because, no matter how much we are willing to shit on continuity, we cannot make Darth Vader female and take off all his clothes.

Duct tape. That has got to be duct tape holding her breasts in place.

I couldn't agree more. I love the KOTOR period. Armies of Jedi and Sith laying waste to each other and killing billions of innocents in the process. All out war on such a massive scale, but with LIGHTSABERS AND FORCEPOWERS OMIGOSH!

... Yeah, I'm a big fan of KOTOR. I've seen a few videos for this, and all I can say is, I really don't care if it's plot is retarded. I'll just ignore it. Based on the Force Powers Pre-Vis, I'll be too busy annihilating every foe in my path to even care, for the most part.

Still, it would be nice if it doesn't screw with the continuity. I don't think Quinlan Vos is gonna be in it though (That was mentioned somewhere in this threat, right?) because I've read that he's going to be in the Star Wars live-action TV series... then again, that's just rumors and fan-speculation for the most part, and since both this game and the TV series are set in roughly the same time-period, I suppose he could appear in both.

Anyway, to sum my post up, the game looks like it has some potential, but I would like it better if it was set in the KOTOR era, and you were playing as Revan, fucking shit up hardcore...

Betcha 10c that it's their (first) super Wii-lightsaber game.

You can't do it in this new game, either. The Apprentice is a set character with a set name which they haven't revealed yet. No customizability.

Besides, Thumb Wars proves you wrong. People HAVE turned him female.

It must really, really hurt when she changes her clothes...

You owe me 10c then.

According to all the sources I've read from the Wii is one of the few consoles this game ISN'T coming out on. It's a PS3/XBox360 release, with a dumbed-down version being released for the PS2, and for the PSP and the DS, I believe.

I'm trying to keep a level of optimism...

I consider Blackman pretty much the Michael Bay of the EU, so... I'm not too terribly optimistic.

Wonder what'll be the (most) canonical of the Force Unleashed media...

It'll probably be like SotE, where everything dovetails with everything else without error.

Or else they'll leave it up to us to puzzle out, a la Labyrinth of Evil and Clone Wars II or Jedi vs Sith and Path of Destruction.

Funky looking destroyer.
What kind of fucked up not-quite Venator / wannabe-Imperator is that thing? Why do I sense continuity problems revolving around that destroyer? Maybe they'll call it the Harrow and make more of a mess out of the warship canon.

You realize Jedi are basically religious fundamentalists?

That first promo pic is awesome. I love how they got the scale right for the Star Destroyer. If this comes out for the PC, I'll be the first in line if I can see that scene.

The existence of two seperate threads on this issue in two seperate forums frustrates me. As such, this is getting merged with the G&C thread. A PSW thread on this subject would be more appropriate after the game has come out.
