New Next-gen Lucasarts title for the Wii! [Edit]

OMG!!!! Make like the droids and freak out! becasue I may have discovered somthing BIG for gamers.

On August 23rd Lucasarts announced that they would be making a game with "Free Radical" to make a next generation game. read full article here:http://www.lucasarts.com/press/releases/112.html
I looked at free radical and they specialize in making First person shooters. Their past titles include all three "Timesplitters" titles. If you have never played these they are very good shooters with a good humor bit and just plain fun.

Now for the good bit

Today I was browsing IGN, specifically the Wii section and there was a new bit about Lucasarts. here is the link: http://wii.ign.com/articles/727/727616p1.html . basically it said exactly what the link said simply. then I looked and the title says "Wii" in it. I was like "omg. sweet."

Later today I was hanging with my peeps in the park (wurd

) and I told them about my discovery and one stated "ok cool"(not a star wars geek

) and the other said "Ya, I heard about that" and I was like "Huh? I just figured that out" and he says "I read about it in Nintendo Power". here are the details he gave me.

1. It is a jedi game. SWEET!

2. you control the lightsaber with the wii-mote. SWEETER!

and that is all I know for now. I will edit and continue to keep you updated

EDIT

Um, sorry, but your friend needs to read a little better. The blurb in nintendo power said that that was possible, and that sansweet noted the simalarities between the Wii-mote, and a ligtsaber, but that no new news had been released. I believe the quote was something like: "LucasArts uses a Jedi mind trick to make its intentions loud and clearduring comic-con--then vanishes without really having said anything." They go on to say they want to innovate, etc.

I apologize for any spelling errors, I just finished typing an essay, so I'm kind of out of it....

date Posted: Aug 28, 2006 7:13 AM 21, I'm in the same boat as you. I have my XBOX and have had it since 2002. Now all the good games are coming out on 360. Pretty soon, there won't be any games selling for the XBOX. They've already discontinued the XBOX. We, the XBOX owners/lovers, should make a petition to have the XBOX games keep coming and never stop. Who's with me?

date Posted: Aug 28, 2006 7:16 AM I am absolutely dying for the fixed version of KOTOR 2, and the next installment of said series. I imagine that we'll be taking the exile on a journey to finally meet/confront Revan. At that point, we'll either join Revan or challenge him for control of the army he will surely have amassed by this time. Either way...I'm stoked!!!

Um, I only have an Xbox too, and I knwo how you feel... But that would pretty much destroy the purpose of making a new system... It would be great... But not going to happen.

date Posted: Aug 31, 2006 6:39 PM It's probably only a matter of time that a lightsaber game comes out for the Wii. Unless the Wii completely bombs. It's too much of a natural fit.
