Title: Starwars Starfigher....any one want this game?
Post by: Lynx on February 11, 2001, 06:15:59 PM

I just recently got a ps2..its probably like 2 weeks old now..I purchased two games..SSX and TTT..both are great by the way.  Unfortunatly I cant try out other games simply because every blockbuster I go to..has rented out every ps2 game they have..and I dont really want to buy the ones avalible right now..DoA2 was on my list orginaly..but after playing it at San fransicos metron..I was kinda turned off..sure it looks pretty..but I didn\'t like the fighting system..madden was on it too..but I\'m not a huge sports fan..so I crossed it out.  Now in march we have a new wave of brand new video games..and starting it off is star wars..which is coming out late this month I think.  Anyways..I haven\'t played a good lucas arts game since tie fighter and rebel assualt..I for one pray for this game to be good..is there anyone else here hoping that this game turns out to be everything lucas arts says it to be

The only negative I have heard about the game is slow down in IGN\'s "Preview Copy" which they got about a month ago.

Hopefully thats ironed out

I have the game on preorder

Hey Ddaryl on IGN\'s new preview they say the only time they experianced slowdown this time was in the two player mode which means they fixed the other slowdown problems.

Ho3j, I\'m assuming you are the mod From MSXBOX.
Your right, you do always act respectfully here.
I dont think Ive heard one stupid flame from you since Ive started posting here.

Man, I still haven\'t even played Battle for Nabbo on N64 yet. So many Star Wars games... So little time. But hey, I\'m not complaining.

I supposed to have a great flight model, and great speacial effects.  The 3d world looks really immense and I hope the missions are really in-depth.  

Your supposed to be able to fly through the big Capital ships.  I can\'t wait, I hope its similar to Wing Commander, as your fighting the enemy avoiding them by flying through the big ships, I can\'t wait for this game..  Its gonna be great.

So the launch is quite close. But when it will be released in Europe? Or are you talking about the european release?

I\'m going to buy the game if it can bring us the Star Wars atmosphere. That means blasting effects and great soundtrack, and intensive battles. I don\'t want another slow Roque Squadron.

And I\'m little concerned. i\'ve heard Starfighter is a mix-up of X-wing and Roque Squadron. I hope it\'s more X-wing.

and the ships. They\'re not very personal. I\'ve always hated the naboo fighter. Well, I\'m not THAT sure yet. Gotta see.

My shop says it will be in on the 23rd of March (Europe)
I hope it will be more like Rogue Sq. I really liked
that game, although I find Lucas Arts games\' always have
little replay value.
That\'s why I didn\'t like the Rebel Assault games that
much; played it, done it.
I think that problem lies in the fact that th Rebel
games tend to be linear.
Rogue sq. had more ways/ tactics and options on how to
reach the goal.

I\'m praying and I\'m hoping. PLEEEEEEEAAASSSSE let this game be good. It has been delayed a couple of times now since it was reported to be a launch title back in October. I too have this baby on preorder and I\'m quite excited as you can see. Please, I\'ll be very angry if this game disappoints and it would not be a good way to start the re-launch(or at least the pre-relaunch) games heading into 2001. I love PS2 but I got to admit that my patience is running pretty thin. I can\'t play SSX forever now can I? I think not.
