    Your ideas on the trailers, known facts, plot and stuff.
    Also discussion about TFU 1 is more than acceptable.






    P.S:If there is already a thread about it, someone please point me to the right direction and lock this.

    One Word: Maulkiller. Hybrid clone of the Apprentice and Maul.

    It exists in this.

    Where is your Force now, heathen?

    I'm unimpressed. he doesnt look cool, and his name is totally unoriginal. Not to mention, he died on his own, due to faulty DNA or something like that.

    Yes I mean that. And its going to be a pre-order bonus for Xbox and PS3, so there is a pretty good chance that's a line of sith and Vader has it out somewhere fucking shit up for everyone.

    Either way, not including it does not preclude it from ruining the game. The mere fact that it existed leaves me with a hole miles deep in my soul where respect for Lucas once was. First the Chihuahua Jedi ... then Jedi Dinasaurs ...now this.

    I'll show you something to raise your respect for Lucas.

    Are we sure that the clones int he end of the trailer were Marek clones? Maybe they were Maulkiller clones?

    Aside from the fact that its too small, I remain unimpressed. And yes. We are certain most of them are clones of Marek. Its kind of the point of the game, if I remember right.

    Also, I suggest picking up a book on grammar and such. you could use a few brush ups... Marek is a name. Capitalize it. And this isn't a chat room, so you can afford to slow down and not make mistakes.

    In TUF1 I Force-threw a Jawa so far over the horizon I didn't get the crash landing bonus for a full five minutes. If I can repeat that in the sequel, I'll be happy.

    Ah... ok... you sure I need a grammar book for that? Maybe you've let your inner writer dominate way too much? In any case, I'll be careful not to do it again.


    The second game is supposed to be a clone of the original Marek with the original's memories. Though no one said he made more than one. And it would make sense if it were Maulkiller, because it showed after Marek displayed all that skill and slaughtered the Imperials and said "Nobody can" stop him. Maybe it worked to show how wrong he was. Maybe Maulkiller will be a boss.

    KOTOR II. Have had.

    On topic: Never played FU, though wanted to just for Vader part everyone said they got right. However. Maulkiller? Their names merged? LOL. When bad fanfic ideas crop into million-dollar games, I must question who is in charge. I know one thing, I won't be playing it for the plot.

    Never played KOTOR2 personally. Computer couldn't support it.


    Anyone else ever thought that the dialogues in TFU were the most natural of SW games so far? No more that cool monotone of the hero's voice. Galen's voice showed annoyance, pain and other emotions perfectly. I'll give the game this much.

    Will there be dismemberment? If not, I'm not interested.

    From an interview I saw with the developers (on Xbox Live), I believe there will be dismemberments, although I have no clue of how gory that it will be. If you want dismemberments in a Star Wars game, I suggest Jedi Knight 2 & 3. I can't remember if the TFU had dismemberments.

    At any rate, the first game was pretty fun. I didn't like the action a whole bunch (I liked the action from Jedi Knight 2 much more in comparison), it just felt sorta off too me. But the graphics and the enviroments were well done. Likewise was the plot and the voice actors, in particular Sam Witwer as the Apprentice.
    What I liked the most about the first game was how epic the developers tried to make it, to show just what could be done with Force. Awesome.

    In conclusion, this is one of those games I'll get eventually, but not right away. I doubt I'll enjoy it enough for it too be worth it's launch price.

    Dismemberment has been confirmed. No blood though, at least I havent seen any in the videos they published. So far the dismemberment I've seen are hands, legs, heads and in half. There may be diagonal, who knows? And there WOULD be no blood, since the lightsaber cauterizes the wound.

    So I guess this is out, does anyone have it? Is it good?

    Oh, and do I need to have played the first one to step into this sequel?

    I've had a crack at the demo on the PS3. They've made the character look smaller in order to make the levels look bigger I think, which I dont like. It certainly has a different feel to it. The graphics have a very slight cartoonish feel to them which is probably a result of the attempt to improve the graphics.

    They have removed force shield and replaced it with Mind Trick, which is a bit shit cause I like to smash the shit out of as many people as possible rather than have the enemy do it for me. Also they have added Force Fury which sends the character into some sort of force frenzy where all force and sabre attacks receive a major power boost and do different things.

    I have read that the main game is only 5 hours of gameplay which, for a full priced ps3 title, is utterly unacceptable, lazy and shit. Especially with a lack of any other game modes.

    I will still buy it when it's released in the UK tomorrow cause i'll enjoy running around being a jedi, but will probably trade it in as soon as something else that tickes my fancy comes out.

    Don't know if you need to play the first, though I doubt it. I think the story will make reference to the previous game and what went on.

    ...

    Played the demo - if this is what it's going to be like, then I'm not wasting my money.

    Does anyone remember the good Star Wars games anymore, the ones that actually had a modicum of canonical sense to them and had great gameplay to match? In all due fairness, I'd rather spend my money on a full remake and graphical upgrade of TIE Fighter or Star Wars Rebellion or even the original Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight (with the live-action cut-scenes kept in, obviously) than waste it on this shite.

    I'd kill to get a good SW Rebellion remake - think Heart of Iron. Also, Tie Fighter and X-wing Alliance, truly epic games.
