the graphics on pc were messed up a bit for me, but I managed to finish it. I loved it, the controls were much easier than xbox imo.

Playing with it a bit, I found my graphics only glitched when I made changes in game. If I made a change then restarted the game everything was smooth. Also, the only graphics glitches I saw where on the menus and cutscene/loadscreens. There was a lot of tearing and odd ovelays of textures.
Man, if this game doens't have co-op I'm gonna cry. It plays like it was designed for coop.
I noticed the designers took alot of liberty with the interpretation of the universe. The trandoshans are shorter and bulkier than I am used to seeing, and clad in alot of armor/gear. The wookie towered over everyone ina refreshing manner that really made you want to stear clear of the beast, even though he was on your side.
A little polishing and this thing is gonna be awesome.

lol I was hoping the same for co-op Excess3. But sadly I think its jus multiplayer modes like death match and such. The trandos and wookies look soooooo much cooler. The wookies are huge and fierce looking instead of greasy and muppet-like. The trandos look awsome too. I dunno why we keep the outdated images of the races and other stuffin sw games. The only reasone they looked as they did was becouse of the lack of technology an inspiration at the time. I hope swg startslooking cooler, the new faction armour is a step in the right direction for my taste atleast.

Fun demo. I like the squad banter when you accidentally kill a team mate. 
That first spotlight area is kinda tricky though (well, if you're all in the red zone like I was...)

The biggest negative are the linear missions. Oh, how I hate linear gameplay.

this game is going to be friggin' awsome... i've played the demo through at least ten times now... the only bad thing is that it's kind of annoying that everyone sounds like jango fett, each clone should have their own special voice changer in their helmet

For all of you that might care, the characters in this game are clone commandos, not ARC troopers, they are totally different things. ARC troopers are the original elite clone troopers, but the Kaminoians decided that they were too independent and might not be controlled well enough, so they sat down and made a group of clones that functioned in a single group of 4 people, which led to the clone commandos. Its all in the star wars databank, just type in clone commando and it will come out.

They do all have separite voices. The only one with theJango voice is the leader. Atleast in the PC version. You can check thier voice sets on the main website.

Yeah, one has a real crappy vocal chord apparently and seems to have a nasty husky - yet cool, voice 
The commando squad leader is your "by the rules" guy, and opts to call his teammates by their numbers and not their nicknames (and consequently didnt have a different voice apparently!). But he's also kickass...

I like Scorch the best myself... Nothing like a wise-cracking explosives expert.
