Idea: More video game edits...just a suggestion
Time

Given the amazing quality of the Star Wars: Bounty Hunter edit that was recently released, I think it would be neat if someone decided to do something similar for several other video games in the Star Wars universe.  I’m sure several could pull it off reasonably well.  Even the games for Episodes I and III, though they closely follow the plot of the films, are told a little differently and could potentially be edited to be very interesting.  This is just an idea I had, and I doubt anyone would take it up, but it’s a fun idea I thought.

I did want to make that move.  Yes, it's a material loss, but I still have the upper hand, and a knight in your position is actually pretty valuable.  In the interest of time, I'm more interested in wiping out your pieces, then beating you with what remains.  I clearly still have the advantage, and barring any stupid mistakes, I should be guaranteed a victory, likely after a pawn promotion.  I'm cool with it.  I thought it might make for a faster game in the long run.

ok, I am pretty sure your knight on b3 can't move to d3.  sorry.

Sorry Warb.  Even though I moved my bishop on the computer program to the correct square, due to the lateness of the hour when I posted my move, I either struck the wrong keys or forgot what I moved by the time I came here to post it.  Sorry, buddy.  Obviously I meant to say:

BXe3

That's an embarrassing mistake :(

It's hard for me to know for sure that it's the right thing to do, but I don't really want to win because of this sort of mistake.  On the other hand, maybe you still would have succumbed to my trap and made a similar mistake had things proceeded normally, so it's hard to give it up.  But...I will let you go back if you want to try to rectify the situation.  It's your choice.

I am following the game on a computer program which disallows illegal moves.  My knight was on d4.  My knight on d5 captured your bishop on e3, where it was then captured by your queen, prior to me moving my other knight from d4 to b3.  I suggest you recreate the game based on our record to this point.  You will see I am correct.
