I've got the POWER (of the dark side) 11 May, 2006, 22:18 / 9 comments


You know that Darth Vader game that was rumoured but not announced? Well, it might be in development after all, slated for a 2007 release.

Computer and Video Games.com have some kind of exclusive scoop on the matter, together with news on LucasArts' latest technology. It sounds like they're co-operating with ILM a lot more, which could prove to be interesting for future games, maybe.

    Will Wright in a gaming article:

    "Oh, one more computer [game] designer who I really like is Tim Schafer. I don't like adventure games at all except for his. Grim Fandango was really a masterpiece."

    Yeah, collaborating with ILM is the thing to make better games... that Jango Fett proved it, right ? Right ?...

    There's more info on the Vader game (or whatever it turns out to be) here on IGN. It goes into more detail on the tech demos than the CVG piece. Between this game and Indiana Jones it sounds like LucasArts is actually going to take the games on the new consoles to a new level gameplay wise. I just hope for PC ports too.

    I'm still waiting for them to announce the Wii lightsaber game that everyone naturally assumed they would make.

    Well, well, maybe they aren't completely retarded. They probably are though.

    I can imagine it now...
    doing a force pull on enemies using the nunchuck and slice them with wiimote. It would be awesome.

    OMG Udvarnocky, it's like they have a direct link to your mind! Wii Lightsaber game practically guaranteed.
