LucasArts has confirmed that a playable demo for its upcoming Star Wars game will be unleashed on August 21 for both PS3 and 360.

We've been told that the demo gives players "a taste of one of the early levels in the game: the TIE Fighter Construction Facility, under siege by a Jedi General named Rahm Kota.

"The Secret Apprentice has been sent by Darth Vader to hunt down and destroy the General, but is also told that, in order to remain a secret, he is to leave no witnesses."

Also included in the demo is a tutorial intended to teach players how to use their Force Grip power (snigger). So everything that was pretty much expected then.

10ft barge pole >>>>> any SW game

There has been several good Star Wars games.

The Xwing-Tie fighter games.

SWG Pre NGE (I think the CU's where good for thegae though, even if I would have kept armors with different protectiosn for different weapon types)

SWG Space combat expansion

Empire ay war was an awesome RTS, and the first game to cobine orbital with ground combat

Star Wars Episode 1 Race, pure awesomeness

Not a huge KOTOR fan, but for the kind of gme they are, they're definaly AAA

Not a Huge fan of the Lego games either, but they're still pretty awesome.

The old side scrolling NES/SNES SW games where also pretty decent concidering the time and format they came out it.

Rebel assault wa a pretty cool game when it came out, even if it was a shooter on rails type of game, it was entertaining and had some cool FMV's and such.

Maybe you thought they said Star Trek. you can count good star Trek Games on one hand with 4 fingers lost in an accident :p

^^ u never know, u might strike lucky and get it back in 4 days

For some reason it has to go to Germany by UPS rather than getting repaired in the UK as they were previously. Which is good for Microsoft's environmental footprint. Hopefully German efficiency should factor in but I bet Germany is now handling all Europe repairs.

Of course the day I decide to actually go into the office and work.

How big is it in file size? (I really wish I could start downloads through a web browser on my 360 somehow) Also any more impressions?

All PSN releases are 6PM EasternStandardTime US

Wow, that's pretty late.

Just played some, not finding it very smooth or fluid. Every time you swing the light saber there is a slight pause. Also if you hit an enemy then it pauses slightly again! Why does it look like there is water all over the floor also! :s I don't think this game is for me but I am sure many people will like it. (Y)

Hmmm, I dont like hearing about pauses. Will try it out as soon as I get home, which is only 7 hours from now give or take.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By sphbecker · Posted

      You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.

      This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Recycle Bin has been broken for literal YEARS now. The setting to delete files older than 30 days from the bin which is on by default doesn't even work. I have files older than 4 months in it and they are just there still...
