Sure Darth Vadar threw his saber.....nothing wrong with that...but it didn't boomerang back to him. He had to walk up ti it, then use the force toput it back into his hand. I think that Jedi oughtto be within 10m of his saber before it returns to his hand.This isn't Crocodile Dundee meets Star Wars is it?

I thought that the very first time I saw saber throw in super empire strikes back. (for the snes) that was one of the moves you had.. and you used it constantly. it was better than the normal attack.

Since then, it has appeared in nearly every sw jedi game, yet it was never depicted in the movies the way it always has been in the games.

lol, I love it when people write "isn't very realistic" in reference to a sci-fi video game.

while we're at it Twi'leks, Zabraks, Wookies, Rodians, Trandoshans, Mon Calamari, Ithorians, Cellestians, Laser Blasters, Lightsabers, Landspeeders and just about everything in Star Wars is unrealistic. So how about you think before your next post man...that is unless you wanna confirm to us all what else is unrealistic about a SCI-FI game!

I could be wrong, but I think he means that within the context of the Star Wars universe, that lightsaber throw has been introduced unrealistically.

Same can be said for droids that can locate a mark in the galaxy and report back in a matter of seconds.

I think throwing one 100 ft is a little much, in all the movies never does it show a jedi force picking up a saber 100ft away.


30ft.. yeah

If you call lightsaber throw unrealistic then you have to say the same thing about the damage, in the movies you see saber cut through anything in SWG your lucky if you can cut a gungan.

lol, nothing is impossible with the force dude. Maybe if you paid more attention to the movies and the past games and even read a little of the books you'd know that.
