Ok, I admit, that game is pimp as all shit!

It's just fun as shit, although you really have to learn ammo management early on or be forced to use crappy scavanged weapons.

Extremely heavy traffic error.

Never seen that on FilePlanet before.

Ok, if you go into the music directory of the game, there's a random rock track with vocials that I didn't hear while playing the demo.

I like Star Wars and all, but I played and deleted this in less time than I took for me to install. Dunno.. maybe it was the play style, but something didnt click.

I've heard about this game. Is it just Rainbow Six with lasers?

More like BF1942 with lasers. Plays a lot worse than R6 or BF1942 though.

I think you're thinking of Star Wars Battlefront. IIRC, it used a modified Battlefield engine.

Republic Commando is using the Unreal engine. The action should be a lot faster paced than Battlefield...like UT or something.

Dammit. Too many Star Wars games to keep track of.

UT is pretty slow though.

I really want to like this game, since it's polished and fairly immersive, but they've stumbled upon my biggest FPS pet peeve (and in fact, my biggest anger with SW: Battlefront): your weapons (not counting grenades) feel like pop-guns. No kick, no impact, and either their Trandoshans are made of steel or the guns are just plain weak as all hell.

Also, between the weapon types, the gun-carrying scheme and the control scheme, I expect an awful lot of "STAR WARS HALO" catcalls.

The AI seems a little weak at the moment, maybe I'm just asking for a little to much. But when I charge a Trandoshan with my blaster and take my melee blade and jab it through his skull, you'd think they would turn slightly just to get a few shots off.

Other than that, I agree with Tok. The guns look cool but they just don't go boom or sound very intimidating enough.
