First Person Aerial Combat?
Ok, think about this one. Sound retarded?

I agree, it does. They are probably making it!

limewax4606d ago

What you never played an Aerial Combat game in first person view? It's by far the best way to play those sorts of games lol

gw4k4606d ago

I usually play with my fire truck in 3rd person!

Mad_Mack4604d ago

I am assuming you never played any of the X-Wing games on the PC. Or Conflict Freespace. Or Tachyon.

FPS space combat games are mega.

Solidus187-SCMilk4606d ago

aww yeah. The 3 games are jedi power battles 2, a new darkforces jedi knight game, and a new ti fighter/x-wing.

hahah yeah right, but maybe they will make a starwars battlefront game.

Aggesan4606d ago

A new tie fighter or xwing game would be awesome. I loved those games!

DeadlyFire4606d ago

Could be Battlefront as FPS or Republic Commando. Although my highest hope is it being a new Jedi Knight.

rfowler304606d ago

lets hope its better then the forced unleashed, god knows that game needed some tweakin and balancing.

Capt-FuzzyPants4606d ago

Star Wars Battlefront had both of those. This could be good.

spartan_dx4606d ago

yah first thing that popped up in my mind was battlefront lets hope that's what it is.

aliengmr4606d ago

Ugh. Anyone else worried their hiring for "in-house" positions? Pretty sure LA, didn't dev any of those games. And unless they have changed their views about the PC, Im even more worried.

eh…Gilbert, Purcell Schaffer were the trail blazers in that crew. David, while he did do some stuff once, like a real long ass time ago is more like b-list personality that specializes in reminiscing and signing ops at a convention.

Dope! Gotta be honest tho, i completely forgot this existed 😅

Sonic1881514d ago

Still in the early stages. We won't get a reveal until two more years probably 😂

rlow1513d ago

I wish they would make another Riddick, Butchers Bay was the best.

hotnickles513d ago

You know what games I want way more than Indiana Jones? The darkness and Riddick.

Snookies12513d ago (Edited 513d ago )

Haha, completely agree... But, the fact that he is involved in this is a definitely a positive sign! Could actually be a good game!

hotnickles513d ago

You might be right. Indiana Jones will never do Jackie or Riddick stuff though. The darkness was brutal on the eyes and ears lol.

Leeroyw513d ago

The Darkness was an underrated gem. Fantastic lore and Mike patton from Faith No More voicing the darkness is up there with the great video game voice overs imo.

PapaBop1032d ago

Secret of Monkey Island is a classic, I highly recommend it for anyone who hasn't played it.

Garethvk1032d ago

Those older LucasArts games were all good. Full Throttle is still amazing
