Star Wars - The Games

[october_midnight]

In keeping with the Star Wars TV and movie threads, I figure we've now finally got enough content to warrant a thread. With Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor, and the newly announced Outlaws open world game...things are looking up.

Gameplay video just released for Outlaws at the Ubisoft Forward presentation. I'm all the way in.

I beat Jedi: Survivor a week ago and I absolutely loved every minute of that game. It's even better than Jedi: Fallen Order, which I also loved. They improved on just about every aspect of the first game.

As far as this new game is concerned, it looks decidedly less interesting to me, based on the trailer and gameplay footage (especially the "stealth" part that reminds me of the Mary Jane portions of the Spider-Man game), but I'm going to try to reserve judgement until I see more of it and see how reviews pan out. I do know it won't be a pre-order for me like Jedi: Survivor was.

I liked Fallen Order a lot. Haven't got around to playing Survivor yet (schedule and budget haven't really lined up for that one) but I'm looking forward to picking it up in the not-too-distant future. Outlaws looks cool from what they've shown us but I'm a little worried about the open world aspect of it. Too many modern open world games feel very samey and more like filling out a checklist than experiencing a world.

I just recently got the Force Unleashed for the Switch.

I had it for Wii.

the improvements they made to the visuals are quite good.

it went from a game that looked a bit muddy to a pretty satisfying visual experience.

Edit:

The updated controls are a big plus, too. I didn’t mind the original Wii controls for the game, but it plays really well with a pro controller.
