And tell him how SOE is making a mockery of the greatest sci-fiuniverse ever created, the one he created. I think i am going to play pen and paper SW RPG game, it has more Star Wars feel to it than this game will ever have.


You dont give a toss about Star Wars or the players. As long as you can lie to them and make them wait months for the next publish to get somthing to make the game worth playing for them, so that you cansuck money out of their bank, only to let them down and not release anything or not even tell us WTH is going on. Thanks but Sony you should stick to making hi-fi's and home entertainment (including ps2).

You're talking about the man who wrote the Anakin/Padme love scenes in Attack of the Clones. I'd say he's made a mockery of his own universe, too.



Taking a well-deserved vacation from his successful Droid Engineering business, Master Rho can be found puttering around the galaxy.

I'm pretty sure Mr Lucas would sell his soul to the devil for the right some of money.

As long as the money keeps rolling in to him he doesn't give a **edit** what anyone does with his franchise.

I feel Lucas no longer cares for his creation (aka the OT). Now he's just in it for the money, hence the trash called episodes 1 and 2.

Funny you should say such things, but I actually had a chat with Mr Lucas the other day on this very subject. I'll convert the call into a chatlog for your enlightenment, as it went something like this:



**Briiiinnnngg, Briiiinnnngg**


Secretary: Hello. Skywalker Ranch, how may I direct your call?


Woody: I need to speak to George. Tell him it's Woody


Secretary: One moment, sir.


**bad holding music based loosely off the Star Wars themesong**


GeorgeLucas: Hello, this is George.


Woody: George? This is Woody. We've got a problem.


George Lucas: What problem's that Boss?


Woody: How many times have I told you not to end your questions in a preposition! Accursed writer. You know writers are generally the first ones banned from the set of a movie in Hollywood, right?


George Lucas: Sorry Boss. Now, what's the problem?


Woody: SOE has run amok with your Star Wars idea. They've totally screwed it over. The whole Star Wars Galaxies has become some **edit** child that is almost unrecognizable from your original works. Kinda like Episode 1


George Lucas: I see. This is bad


Woody: Yes it is. And we want you to have a word with SOE on this matter.


George Lucas: Sorry boss, can't do that. I'm still trying to come up with a good idea for episode 3, and don't have time for pet projects


Woody: I see


George Lucas: sorry


Woody: don't worry bout it then. Good luck with episode 3, hopefully it'll come out right


George Lucas: Thanks boss


Woody: oh, as per my last request.Have you managed to get ahold of the personally signed original bikini that Leia wore in episode 6during the.....




I guess you don't need to know the full extent of the conversation, but there it is. Laid bare. I think this is all bad tidings for all of us.

Lucas could care less about us. He is laughing all the way to the bank.


Back in the 70's when his movies were big, just out, new...he was paying more attention to his fans. With the creation of Star Wars-based rides at theme parks he was paying more attention to his fans.


Ever since the release of the Star Wars Trilogy in 95/96, he has cared nothing about what the public wants. It was a scheme from that time.


"No special occasions." "No discounts tickets or coupons." This is what they said for the the in-theater Episode 1 & 2.


I am sure Lucas had armed Star Trek guards patrolling the movie theaters nationwide after hours to be sure the employees didn't watch it for free.


Now, I ask: "Do you really expect him to give a RATS AZZ what those of us who play this game have to say?"

Come now! Eventually there will be SWG Special Edition and all the Rancor's will be digitally edited and replaced with combat droids.


I jest, but you know this game would be a hell of a lot better if his kids played it.

They weren't up to apr with episodes 4-6 but.... they weren't meant to me I think. Episodes 1-3 is mostly background information leading up to the GCW. How exciting is it supposed to be to watch a movie about Anakin being a kid and Anakin as a Padawan? If you want Imps vs. Rebs, stick with 4-6. For those that want to know how Anakin became Vader, then it's good.
