This is probably better for Star Wars games long term. I can't remember the last Star Wars game that was truly a must have title.

Now any gaming company can license the IP and produce a game. I'd like to see Bethesda take a shot at an open world Star Wars RPG.

I can't this hard enough.

Bethesda and a new story line for The Walking Dead would break my dick in half as well.

For a long time I have wanted a fully explorable, open-world Star Wars game who's main plotline takes you through the original trilogy as several of the main characters.

Would be badass as ****.

Imagine getting to play the Death Star mission as Luke and then replay it as Han Solo.

You could expand the plot and have Han run into an Imperial convoy or something on his way home from Yavin IV, and he has to fight his way out and decides to turn around and help the Rebels.

Then you get to fly back and blow up TIE Fighters in the trench.

J.W. Rinzler (The Making of The Empire Strikes Back) and Mike Mayhew (perennial Best Art Ever This Week favorite) are teaming to adapt the original draft by George Lucas for what would become A New Hope, which features a six-foot lizard Han Solo and Annikin Starkiller, as Dark Horse Comics limited series.

From Dark Horse's official press release:

Three years before his 1977 film, George Lucas put down on paper his first story set in a galaxy far, far away-a tale of fantastic adventures, daring escapes, "lazer swords," romance, and monsters. A story of Jedi Annikin Starkiller and General Luke Skywalker, an alien named Han Solo, and evil Sith Knights. The screenplay was titled The Star Wars!

Slated for a September release, the eight-issue mini-series may be among the final Dark Horse-published Star Wars comics, as the rights will revert back to Disney, and subsequently, Marvel after 2013.

The LucasArts thing won't really change much. As I understand it they're just basically getting rid of the inhouse development. Which hadn't been much anyway. Everything good had been licensed to outside studios.

I can't think of a worse idea than a Bethesda star wars game.

that's because you whine about everything bethesda does.

Truth is they make fantastic, entertaining, engrossing games. I can't remember the last Star Wars game that could be described as such. Shit like SW: Battlefield was the gaming equivalent of McDonalds, and Force Unleashed was a gay button masher who's best parts were the cutscenes.

1313 looked like it was going to be but it got nuked.

You are directly out of your ****ing mind, dude. There's Bethesda, and then there's everybody else.

I think Bethesda games are crap. Endless boring maps with tons of shit repeated over and over and over and no semblence of an interesting story to be found anywhere. It's like taking the worst part of an MMO (aka "the grind") and turning it into a single player game.

Or it could be because I'm mature adult who realizes that looking pretty, or being popular, doesn't make something good.

I'm sure if they did come out with a Star Wars game I'd be stupid enough to buy it. And then stop playing it a day later because I'm bored to death.

Anyway, you shouldn't take it so personally. It's not like you're Bethesda, and I'm slamming games you created. Play whatever the hell you want.

And yes, 1313 looked awesome.
