Star Wars 1313

This just got binned, along with the whole studio Lucasarts. Disney, greedy buggers that they are have decided that they will simply license star wars rather than produce anything game related. Might turn out to be a good thing in the future, but it’s a shame to see such a promising title get binned so far into development.

I’m not really bummed. I didn’t trust LucasArts to make a good game when their best title in the past five years is TFU.
-
Yet another shocking news among so many others lately. It sucks because I was really eager to play this game, considering I’ve only played like 1 or 2 Star Wars related games in my life.

I’ll just leave this here.

I was seriously looking forward to this game, it’s been a long while since LA made a decent game yes, but this looked awesome, and i don’t mean the shiny graphics, it looked to be a true SW-grit fest at the bounty hunter level backed by some of SW’s best writers… It would have meant the return of LA as a gaming company… one last hurrah.
I have to wonder about Disney’s motives in this… was this a move to make licensing easier? cut out the middle man on old contracts… or just a crummy move by a progressively greedy mouse…
The mouse better watch it though… plenty of mouseketeer’s yes… but probably (in this day) just as many jedi loyalty’s… can seriously hurt your bank balance… and many don’t question who made what they see the LA logo, and think George made it himself (lol)
Folks still ask “who’s raven?” in regards to JKA , or think KOTOR was made by LA as well… and i think Insomniac made TFU… i’d have to dig it out… been a while
But my point is made… folks loved LA for just being a part of SW … this is a kick to the detonator’s.
