That is so seksi. I love starwars games they are by far one of the few creators who consistently come up with intriguing plots while staying true to their purpose in the game. I remember playing Tiefighter for PC. hmmm I bet I still have that *runs away to go find it*

They should get Pandemic to do it. They did an excellent job with Battlefront.

The only starwars game i played a(and enjoyed) was Tie Fighter; I don't know why this is, but it is so there. Oh and whenever I see another Starwars game oh always go "another one?"

TIE Fighter owned.
If you want a great Star Wars game, go play Dark Forces or Jedi Knight. Anything from that series has been excellent.

I didn't really enjoy Jedi Academy.
And I've never played Dark Forces III.
The only Star Wars games that have sucked, as far as I can remember, are Force Commander and Battle for Naboo. Oh, and who can forget the disappointment of Star Wars Galaxies?

I was pretty disappointed with X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter and Galactic Battleground as well.
