Some other developer will make that type of game for PS3 and Wii

Its basically free money, A 1:1 controlled star wars light saber game might be the most requested or hoped for game ever

Millions of star wars fans old and new have had this dream since forever, and it can finally become reality now!!

Lucasarts aren't Namco Bandai, they don't hate money, they will release that type of game!



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

It goes to show how even a million selling Wii game studio can close down. People always over-estimate how profitable these projects are almost without exception.



Tease.

Yes but Lucasarts hates making good games as of late the first Force Unleashed was very meh though FUII from the demo might actually be a competent action game (time will tell) Fracture was bad, so has a few other of their current gen titles, and they obviously hate money when Free Radical essentially had Battlefront 3 done and Lucasarts dropped them so they could sell the contract to Rebellion cause they would be cheaper, and we all know how Elite Squadron turned out (the plot for that game was originally the plot that was supposed to be in BF3) 

So really I wanted to see what Krome would have done with the tech not Lucasarts lol

I agree with everything you've said

But Krome couldn't possibly have been the only competent dev Lucasarts could outsource the said game too. There must be other people.

Lets just hope Lucasarts knows how important such a game would be to them financially and to Star Wars fans.

Hopefully they make it, sadly the Move set up is lacking motion in the Nav controller, not sure if you played Star Wars TFU on Wii but being able to force push with the nunchuck made the game so satisfying, since you had lightsaber swings in one hand and force in the other, Sony needs to make either a Move that has an analog or just add motion to the Nav >_< without that motion it really takes away from the experience.
