LucasArts used to produce great games (Dark Force, X-Wing Series through to X-Wing Alliance) and of course its adventure games (Grim Fandango, Monkey Island, Full Throttle).
Then ...something happened. Its like all the brains and creative talent just up and left.
KOTOR was great. KOTOR wasnt because, unfortunately, it was released unfinished since it was rushed out for some unknown reason.
That can also be seen with the movies.
The first three (well ...maybe not so much Return of the Jedi) were awesome and still are. Even the ...ugh ...super special awesome editions of them.
The prequels were awful. Absolutely awful.
I am a Star Wars fan. I read the books. I play the Star Wars RPG as well with mates. However - I am always more than happy to be critical of something which is just crap.
That's the difference between being a Star Wars fan ...and fanboy (or fanboi).
I did not buy Force Unleashed. I will not be buying Force Unleashed II.
Star Wars Galaxies was crap. I am, however, looking forward to playing The Old Republic MMORPG (Bioware - the makers of KOTOR - are doing it so that's reason enough).
