Yah, I've known about this for quite awhile. Lucas Arts has essentially sworn off making star wars pc games because the pc community has been begging for another addition to the Jedi Knight series or something akin to it and Lucas Arts essentially said no despite what is apparently a genuine source revenue. Many Lucas Arts PC fans feel slighted, myself included. I guess the temptation to make the BIG money was just too much.

just imagine how nice the light-saber action would be with the Wii-remote though ... you have to admit. Still, an action SW game would be waaaay better with the controller than mouse/KB anyway.

agreed Gator, but the option should still be avialable for PC folks. Lucas Arts says they will NOT port this game to PC.

Well I think Panzer said it more eloquently than I.

It's a good thing I like dogs, lol. I may pick up Force Unleashed, but later when I can find it for cheap.

I don't know - it's one of the games I'm really looking forward to, so I probably won't wait too long for it. Probably long enough to see the reviews to make sure they got it right - but so far, I've only heard good stuff about it. I just have to decide whether I want it on X360, Wii or PS3 (I'll probably have bought the Wii and PS3 by the time this comes out -- after all, I'll need a blu-ray player and my wife wants a Wii -- sorry for all the dead kittens I'm leaving lying about).

The Wii also serves as a blue-ray player? hmm. that might make it worth it.

No, I don't think the Wii has a BR player. His wife wants a Wii and they need a BR player, so a PS3 is being considered as well. I think this is what he is saying.

aww that's too bad. I could see me buying a wii for the alternative gaming style and interactivity, and we would definitely like a blu-ray in the house.

Buy a Sharp Aquos HDTV, and get a Sharp BR player for free like I did.

Of course, LA could be lying and release a port later for the PC next year once the Xmas season is over and all the console version sales have dropped.
Anyone notice the acronym for this is SWFU? If that's not LA telling its customers something, I don't know what is...

I love Star Wars but George can bite me. His company doesn't even have the courtesy to respond to customer complain and concerns. Screw them.
