DISLIKED:

  • Phantom Menace
  • Episode 1 Racer
  • Jedi Starfighter

I couldn’t get into that game. I should have loved it, a simple blast 'em space shooter, but hardly played it. What didn’t about it for you, Flopsy?

 
 
In other news:

EA is laying off around 5% of staff, stopping development on a Respawn Star Wars FPS, and ‘winding down Ridgeline as a standalone studio’ at Tech Radar

‘We’re already aware of one of the games that has been affected by this change in strategy: a first-person shooter (FPS) Star Wars action game developed by Respawn Entertainment. Miele stated that gamers are “most excited” about Respawn’s existing library of brands, as well as its Star Wars Jedi games, which influenced the decision to move away from the FPS. Focus will instead be placed on “new projects based on our owned brands while providing support for existing games.”’

650 staff laid off and no new Star Wars FPS game. That sucks.
