The lego series is a good start, but let's hope the next Star Wars Wii game is a more realistic looking one. Not that I don't like the lego series, but it's doubtful that they'll do anything other than episodes 1-6 with it. And it's time some new Star Wars stories came about.

Also, I like how the guy in the article compares his disappointment to Wind Waker. Just another shallow gamer with no appreciation for new artistic directions.

it's a port !!!

you will only slash it anyside you want and it will do a random attack, not based of the angle of your movement or strenght or w/e you want it to be

Hey, long as it's cheap, will be a worthwhile pickup for those who never purchased the original two titles anyhow....

But yeah, does suck that it isn't exactly what we were wanting with regards to lightsaber action.

(not that I don't mind what is essentially Lego Star Wars1&2 in the same package)

These assumptions aren't logically insane.

Lucas Arts' only lightsaber game that is coming out is this Lego Game. Which is more educated than any rebuttal saying that the Wii lightsaber game ISN'T a lego game.

Err, anyone with a decent amount of logic would realise this isn't true. Eidos Interactive, Traveller's Tales are the pub/devs of the Lego Star Wars franchise, and last that I checked they havn't sold those rights. Lucas Arts directs the "real" Star Wars games, not the "fake(lego)" ones. So no need to worry die-hard Star Wars fans, we'll still have our good lightsabre fun without the pixelated legos being decimated.

I concur. I wouldn't mind getting it if it were marked down to 30 bucks like RE4. Nevertheless, if this Lego Stars Wars for the Wii is indeed true, I can't help but be somewhat concerned. Let's face it, a lot of the stuff coming out for the Wii has been really kiddy thus far. With talk of a Lego Star Wars on the way rather than an adult Star Wars game, I'm worried that this is a sign that Wii game developers are focusing on the younger crowd too much. This would be quite the tragedy. I mean the Wii has a heck of a lot of potential. Just look at RE4: an adult game executed perfectly thanks to the Wii's technology. I think it's alright if they have a Lego Star Wars on the Wii, I just hope they don't forget about the older Wii players out there.

Fret not, do not worry. We've known lego star was coming, CVG has just sensationalised a headline. From the Gamasutra interview with Lucasarts VP via Newsweek we know that the concept has been put into place and Lego star wars is but one iteration of the theory put into practice.

Retailers have had star wars force unleashed listed for Wii for quite some time now and it's likely that is the wii lightsabre game or even a wholly original effort.

I thought it was decent the first time I played it, but all these new installments of it and how "popular" it is, is rather stupid to me.

That's just a port, they've said before they have plans to do an entirely new lightsaber based game on the wii, this is unrelated.

Why are there so many Winers on here?

it WILL be full price, and anybody who is any level of star wars fan MUST buy as many copies of this as they can (I plan on buy 6 copies, and giving 5 of them to local Youth Centers, Tax Write-off FTW), to show LA and the wii can support's it's own Star Wars Games, not ports of last gen games.

BTW, LA does not make the LEGO SW, they just sign off on them so TT can use the licence.

That's one of the dumbest things I've heard, and I've heard GW Bush speak publicly. I'll decide whether or not I like the game before putting my money on it. If the game's crap, there's no way I'm going to waste my money. If I like it, I'll buy it -- but only one copy. I plan on buying SSBB, but I'd never buy more than one of it. That's just a waste.

I concur. I love Star Wars but I don't buy all the games. And man oh man....there's been some pretty terrible ones. I would never buy more than one copy of a game ever. I mean and using games as a tax write-off? No thanks I'd rather help people directly than throw them star wars games.

Haha man, someone puts a speculative little blog on the net and fanboys pee their pants.

Hmm I'll try it too...

I SPECULATE THAT LEGO STAR WARS IS NOT THE LIGHTSABER GAME!!

See? It's on the internet now. You can all relax.
