Here we go (http://www.lucasarts.com/exclusive/other/trailer.mov)
My opinions:
GOOD
The vast majority of the saber fighting. Especially the bit where the blades meet and stay there.
The AT-ST. It looks different from JK for some reason, but still keeps to it's big imposing ways
Disrupter. I didn't like it, until I saw it work :)
The part where you fight with an ally looked great
Force Lightning *drools*
The way Kyle turns on his sabre is quite a neat touch
BAD
The early fight where the Baddie does the flip didn't look right. I think it was sped up a bit, and hope so. It was about the only enemy move that did look a bit wierd
The wall run. This aint The Matrix :)
Overall, I think it does look sweet. I just want to know the darn storyline already! :)

That does look really sweet, although you'll probably need a pretty powerful video card for it to run smoothly. I thought the saber stuff looked really cool, a lot better than in the first one.

The 'Luke for President' rally was not a huge success

I'm going to pre-order the collector's edition tin from ebworld.com for the exceptionally low price of $59.99 :) *available April 2, 2002 in the Continental United States and overseas dependancies. Limited quantities.
Now THAT is advertising! (inside joke)

Of course...they didn't get Mark Hamill to be Luke. :mad Atleast I don't think they did. Nice job on making him look kinda like Hamill.
Oh and :lol to RF's comments afterwards.

Yes but since then we havent had a decent sw game. They were supposed to give us obi wan but then decided to release it for console only which was a horrible thing to do. If anything games should be PC only and then if its a hit they can release it on console. The Episode 1 games all sucked so finally we're getting a game worth playing.

Pod Racer was alright. Awesome at the arcade, with the proper Pod Controls.
TPM was fun, but not to the extent that I would buy it again
Star Wars Arcade Is one of the top arcade games ever (THis, POD Arcade and Police 24/7 are the biggies :))

Now, Rebel Assault 1&2, they were bad. Shame I own both :)

SW Arcade rocked! Lightsabre fights were a blast.
I didn't like MotS. It felt like they tried to make it a puzzle solving game. :| That, and the cutscenes looked like someone just made an avi recording of the ingame engine, but being software rendered. :x

Had the cutscenes stayed at the game res, I'd like them. But they stayed low and grainy. My eyes bled :)
Quite ironic that some level makers can make MOTS levels that still look great, but Lucasarts made cutscenes that were beaten by Duke Nukem 3D :)
Loved the last levels of MOTS though. Forgetting you were Mara, and they were near perfect :)
Oh, someone elses caption to the above picture:
"Luke... I love you!"
"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn!"
:)

I liked Rebel Assault II. One I didnt' care for at all. It looked kinda dumb

I struggled with the first one. Couldn't get a grasp on a decent control system :)

The storyline? I don't think this is really a spoiler but I read somewhere that it takes place after ROTJ during the New Republic, and you're basically trying to get rid of all the warlords and unorganized Imps hanging around.

Oh, and that SW:GB game that seems to have sucked up all my november and december gaming time :p
