EA makes me VERY skeptical about purchasing this....but we've been craving a good Star Wars game for decades. Battlefront was a god damn mess. I hope to God they've learned their lesson on that (probably haven't)..can't really tell anything off of a trailer that doesn't show any gameplay...wonder why?
I just wish there was an open world (universe) game where you can fly/travel from planet to planet, have missions etc...kinda like a GTA type game, where you can be a Jedi in training, become an apprentice, battle the empire, fly the Falcon, have personal droids, fly Xwings and have space battles, also allows you to play the other side of the card where you can be the empire and train under Vader or something and you could do missions, fly in Tiefighters etc. There is SO much they could do w/ a Star Wars game, but it never gets done. Battlefront was a half assed mess. [Reply]

Don't forget Call of Duty. One of the most influential video game franchises of all time.
Games like this and Cyberpunk 2077 are just more proof that the SP experience will never go away. [Reply]

The weird thing is that EA cancelled TWO single player games recently, one that was going to be a continuation or reboot of KOTOR, and the other was inspired by Uncharted. Both were cancelled because they wanted focus on games as service. And yet this is out in November. Which isn't a bad thing but still...weird. [Reply]

I really want a new KOTOR and/or Mass Effect. I wish Bioware wouldn't waste their time with Dragon Age. I still wish they had expanded upon Mass Effect instead of Anthem, the Multiplayer on ME3 needed more to it and I bet it would have been a lot better game. [Reply]

Meh the same could be said for just about every games company, all a bunch of greedy bastards as a general rule. [Reply]

Right I hate mobile games with a passion, but it's undeniable it's a huge cash cow. My wife loves mobile games but i've warned her I'm leaving her if she spends a penny on them. :P [Reply]

If I really enjoy a game I will sometimes pay the small one or two dollar fee to remove the ads. But that is as far as I'll go.
That said, I'm finding it harder and harder to find good mobile games because they load them down with so many ads and started adding timegates and paygates.
The old Plants vs Zombie and Cover Orange style games are gone. Its all about how much money you can squeeze from a customer now. [Reply]

Yeah. I dont fault anyone for doing whatever the heck they want with thier money either. I just hope you enjoy it enough for your expectations. :-) [Reply]
