A bad demo can crush a game's sales though. Before the haze demo i was considering getting it, now I probably won't even rent it.

Only people whiting him out are douchebags like you, esat. From what I've read he hasn't made any comments worthy of whiting out while the retards like john mcpoop get voted up for banging their head on the keyboard.

Looks so good. There's an article that came out today, saying that Lucas Arts stated that the will not be releasing to many Star Wars games, but they are focusing in releasing less Star Wars but with a much better quality. Sounds good to me.

I'm getting the 360 version. Every multiplatform title goes to the 360.

Of course your getting the 360 version over the gimped Wii version. No offense but the Wii version isn't even the same game as the PS360 version. The one thing they did add to give it some appeal is the fighting game mode. Other than that it's not even close to the same game. Any multiplatform owner who purchases the Wii version is probably unaware of the differences in the versions. The version simply doesn't stack up in this situation or any situation. Its not a knock its just not capable of the same graphics and physics as the other two consoles. So, unless someone just wants the fighting game mode there is no point.

Oh look its Poop, the middle aged troll whom wishes what could have been in his life....
Maybe everybody isn't into the certain aspects of what the 360/PS3 version offer opposed to what the "gimped" Wii version brings to the table.
OMG TEH GRAFFIX R TEH SUXXXORRZZ!!1 get a fuckin grip man seriously. Obviously the Wii having inferior hardware specs isn't "gimping" sales at all.

Co, are you upset?
I didn't say the Wii version was going to be a bad game. I simply stated the obvious truth. As far as a multiplatform title it doesn't stack up. I guess your so blinded by your fanboy light that anytime you even get a whiff of a Wii criticism you go into attack mode. Its actually pretty funny to someone so obsessed with defending the indefensible.
I never said anything about Wii sales so I don't know where that came from. I never even said the graphics sucked. Actually, you said that. I simply stated an obvious truth that it doesn't stack up to the other two consoles.
My comment was far from trolling. In fact, it was related to the reply chain in question so again your point is null and void. Your unwarranted personal attacks really show your own insecurities. Keep it up though because its what we have all come to expect from you.
What did I say that was false?

Guys I'm sorry to let everyone down. They showed this game off at Comic con and it looked Terrrrrrible. After they were done showing it, Seth green actually took a mic and tried to say that he had played it and it was better than the videos they were showing.
Example of terrible. Destroying a tie fighter and it breks into 2 pieces, with fire that looks like its from the original half-life. Or hitting a storm trooper with a light sabr 5 times and he gets back up.

Sure you weren't looking at the wii version? (I'm serious here it would make sense if true since it's weaker)

It was an honest question unless you're just learning now that the wii is far less powerful than the other two systems in which case I'm sorry for ripping your blinders off.

I have seen videos and they added advanced 3 pronged physics to the PS360 versions. It must have been the Wii, PS2 or PSP versions. From what I have seen the Wii and PS2 versions do not follow the same story arc as the PS360 version nor do they have the same physics and graphics capabilities.
Looks like Co wants to take his ball and go home ... Poor little baby did someone hurt your feelings?
You know the truth is the Wii is not capable of the same things the PS360 are capable of. No matter how much you imagine that it will never be true. For better or worse the Wii's power will only be tapped by exclusives and 1st party titles.

@McPoop, both sides (PS360 and Wii) have their limitations. And the PS360 versions are not always superior. Look at Ironman (I know, bad example ;-)) or PES 2008 (good example). It isn't about the grafix, it's about the games.
On the subject, I'm not interested in this game, neither on my Wii nor on my Xbox 360.

No, it was either 360 or PS3. They showed some of the wii/psp/ps2 stuff afterwards.

...am still looking forward to this game, but I'll probably rent it since it's not really a genre I enjoy playing alot.
ps- in semi-related news I just saw SpeedRacer today and the preview before the movie was for StarWars: TheCloneWars which is an animated feature film coming this fall.

A demo would be a great idea - so long as they put it out there before the game is released... Demos only hurt sales if the game is rubbish! That should hopefully be incentive to iron out any problems.

Metastasis ahoy!
The problem I have with "games like this" *GASPS* are that the developers hold certain aspects and details back. What do I mean?
Take the material articulations for example... rewriting the script to avoid clipping, frame rate... etc. They hold some details back. USUALLY.
I'm not going to commit anything libel about this unreleased title as of yet, but I will say that if this title is as action packed and entrenched in fun as I'd hope, then they made a good rental.
