We have to remember that this is an early build... we don't know when they're going to releae it (do we?).

The co-op should be great! :D

Ya, it looks a lot like rouge leader, but I was expecting that. As long as I get some new levels that are fun, I'll be happy. The 3rd person stuff could be fun too.

Looks nice, but methinks they should have stuck to flight only.

As for Co-op, I say do the same link thing they did with Mario Kart and have 4-8 players on a team at once.

Damn, CAN'T WAIT!

Is it true all the original and bonus missions from RL will be present in RS3 for co-op?

Damn, and the free roaming (of sorts) sounds bloody cool, you can rid anything that moves!

And I'm sure I read a minute ago that RS2 will be running at 20 millino poly's per second, with environments up to 16x more detailed than in RL.

I have to see this in motion!

I absolutely loved the Star wars games on the SNES, here's to hoping!

holy shinto!!!! i think i'm going to die today!!!!! this is all too much... i love it!!!!!!

:eek:

OMG, I know there's more to a game than visuals, but boy I haven't been this impressed ever. I wonder what it looks like in motion?

This game looks leaps and bounds better than RL, and is also shaping up to be a whole lot better better and more deeper.

Look at the fur on Chewy :eek:.

I wonder how much more they can juice the game up.

I was also pretty surprised by this statement:

I think Rogue Leader was using just around 60% of the Cube's power. Does anyone remember Julian Eggebrecht saying that?

I just hope the game plays atleast half as good as it looks.

Oh yeh, I think you left this out:

Well if anyone needed further proof that nintendo isn't trying hard enough on their own games I think Factor 5 just settled it once and for all. These are damn near xbox impressive shots. There is absolutly no excuse for every game developed specificly for Gamecube not to look this good.

And WOO it looks like the bespen level is back!

To me, the first look of this game looks better than almost any Xbox title...definately amongst the best the Box has to offer

I really wish I had a Gamecube for this title (if they pull everything off properly), although the whole Star Wars universe is getting more stale by the year (for me). I wish Factor 5 would try their hand at a new, original franchise.

What does everyone think about the idea of being able to ride anything 'ridable' in the middle of a level?

(I think that's what I read?).



Damn, the lighting on that branch is pretty damn amazing. Is that bump mapping? (I know there's tons of it ebing used in the game, I was just wondering if the branch was bump mapped?).

Wow...forget what I said about it looking a lot like Rouge Leader...these latest shots look quite a bit better than rouge leader.

*lets out little girly scream*

So....beatutiful...


*eyes tear*


I want now!!!!!!


*shrugs and walks away....after one last look*

Yeah, but you've got to compare it to the best and that still doesn't look as good as halo, deathrow, rallisport or a few other games.

For those needing something to pass there time:


-Character models have been created perfectly. Han Solo looks great. You will be able to play as Luke Skywalker in every varioation from farm-boy Luke to Jedi.

-Control an AT-ST through the forest in Endor, shoot the enemy and command your Ewok troops.

-Just about every scene from the Star Wars classic trilogy, including those famous lightsabre battles.

-Death star bonus level, where after you freeze Leia, you fall into the trash compactor (as the movie goes), and you gotta solve a jumping puzzle. Then when you have escpaed, you go into first person view and use your grappling hook (a la Zelda) and swing across, to "recreate fantasy".

-It won't rehash ANYTHING from RS2. E.g. you won't blow up the Death Star, and you won't tangle AT-AT's with a rope and speeders.

-HOWEVER, every single mission from Rogue Leader (including bonus missions) will be available to play in a multiplayer co-op mode.

-Speederbike missions through forest recreated. You can be on foot and hit the enemy on speederbike with your lightsabre at one point in the game.

-Landspeeder racing on Tatooine.

-Near DVD quality footage from the original Star Wars trilogy to intro/outro scenes.

-There will be a mission on Geonosis from Episode 2. The picture looks beautiful.

-Versus multiplayer mode (dogfights), and "capture the base" mode. This will be for at least two, and possibly four players.

-Kamikaze A-wing attack on a Super Star Destroyer. If you're good enough you can do it without comminiting suicide, or hit the SSD bridge.

-Can split up goals in multiplayer.

-Souped up graphics in RSII multiplayer levels.

-2 story lines, luke and wedge, with totally differant levels.

-TONS of hidden levels.

-There are two seperate campaigns. One for Luke, and one for Wedge. You choose after the first mission.

-As you follow these shuttles above the ground and into orbit, you can turn tail and drop back into the atmosphere at any time to find the surface battle still raging.

I don't know if the co-op is available in the new missions. But we know for sure they are in all of the missions/bonus missions included from RL:RS2.

The game isn't finished yet, and even in its current form, IMO, looks better than those 3 games.

YES!!!! This game looks awesome. IT HAS CO-OP! And I hope the missions are more fun than in Rogue Leader, RL was kind of boring if you ask me. I got gold medals in all the levels except Endurance and then I stopped playing it. I wonder how many levels will be in this game.
