Can't say this one is going to be great till its actually out. Remember when they said Halo 3 would be great and thats just a waste of time on its own.

I'm sorry but from what I've seen in the screenshots this game looks lame, but I'm willing to eat those words if it rocks.

Looks like a fun game. I'll certainly be trying the demo out. Also it's Star Wars so w00t for that.

dont get me wrong, the tech they used for this game is amazing and will hopefully inspire others to follow, but the gameplay does doesnt look very good.

just like 8, im willing to (and hope i will) eat my words

I am so pumped for this game! This will be the first retail demo I'll download. Meanwhile, I'll rock The Apprentice in Soul Calibur IV.

SWEET! I was hoping they would have an early demo. I know I will be buying this game anyways.

Now I shall reminisce in the olden days of the Jedi Knight series... ah ya... that's some good stuff!

@21 yeh same here i may never play the demo as i may have already been killed cos of my results lol

Monday, August 18, 2008 @ 09:48:24 PM

I was hoping that a demo would come out for this. I just hope that it doesn't give too much away and that it allows for a good mixture of the controls to see if this game is really going to be like a Jedi Knight 4-ish game ... Jedi Academy is still one of my all-time favorite games!

Well this gives me something to do while my girlfriend gets her results then! Lol. I'm gonna get in trouble for that.

Can't wait for the demo though. Let's just hope it's as good as it looks.

i aint lookin forward too much for this game i mean by looks of the gameplay...the stormtroopers are not gettin chopped up after a hard slash(or finishing blow) from a lightsaber and also the slashes on the floor disappear :( plus the stormtroopers jus run around without any idea what to do but the graphics do look good

i'm with #1 and others who agreed, the gameplay looks great in my opinion but what is shown in videos and u expereincing when playing is two different things.

For whatever reason, I've had a bad feeling about this game for a few months now but I certainly hope I am proven wrong.

I hope it will be good. I think it will be good. I'm still waiting for a game to have a demo that will affect me the same way Bioshock did.

I haven't seen a demo that I played more than once since the Stranglehold demo came out... and I was pretty surprised how much worse the game was.

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
