Lightsaber game, please.

First person realistic movie based lightsaber game made by a high quality dev please.

(you have to be specific...otherwise we'll get another rubbish 3rd person game based on the clone wars cartoon made by Krome studios)

Actually I don't want that...... first of all, first person lightsaber game wouldn't work very well, remember games are still limited to you only seeing the TV screen rather than everything around you, FPS are ok because if you use a gun you will pretty much always be lokking down the barrel anyway. Sword fighting in 1st person woud have to be slow paced with zero fancy moves at all, like a slowed down fencing fight.

Hack and slash sword games would work, because hack and slash games are about performing a few limited moves going through hordes of enemies (perhaps some combos thrown in that do special moves) but In a lightsaber game I would be more interested in the 1 on 1 battles, characters spinning around to block and parry etc.... which IMO at leats would work a lot better in Third person.

That would be a single player experience at least.... then 2 player online 1vs1 lightsaber-ing would be the main focus of the game.... If it was as good as I imagine it could be then it would be one of few games I can forgive for having a 5 hour 1 player portion.

 

They could have an option to switch between the two.
