Topic: EA gets multiyear Star Wars license; DICE, Visceral, and BioWare making game

Looks like all of my hopes of seeing any of the Rogue Squadron games in Wii U VC has gone for a burton

At least it didn't fall into Microsoft's hands. Otherwise we might see more of this.

Well I would have said this is a good idea and I cant see anything bad coming out of it but than I glanced over at my copy of The Old Republic sitting covered in dust on my computer desk and I remember how bad that game was. Yeah so much for any good Star Wars games from now on.

lol no.

actually this would mean the opposite. Its rumored that Microsft/EA are going to be tight this coming gen and they both have strong Patnerships with terminal reality and Harmonix. also Game sold really well and had good life time sales. That and Disney had they're kinect disneyland adventures game do stupidly well also.

so yeah were getting another one.

but how can you hate on the Han solo song.

man, that is a stupid move from Disney,, EA is titled as the worst company in America, I wont expect too much from them. and im pretty sure Star Wars games wont come to Nintendo platforms or the Steam, *cough Origin ,, Battlefront 3 ? nah choosing a color for a light saber will cost you $0.99 ,, bringing up a Jedi on a middle of a mission will cost about $3.99 ....

Don't get why people hate EA this much. I don't see bad games coming out of them left and right so why this is such bad news is beyond me. Hopefully We will see KOTOR redirected by Bioware and hopefully we will see another Republic Commando now. Considering how much better Star Wars games were last-gen I don't see why this isn't good. It's a chance for Star Wars games to return to glory.

If this means KOTOR3 and Battlefront 3, yay.

Yes please!

That'd make me happy.
And another Republic Commando.

EA's relationship with Nintendo is shaky, a best, right now. I'm gonna have to say No at this point. We will probably know where both companies stand towards each other come E3.

That wouldn't be up to EA to decide, it's Disney's property.

Lol The Old Republic is KOTOR 3, I dont know why that is so hard for people to understand.

isn't it like KOTOR 3-7.

SIgh I guess this means I won't see a Superhero or Espionage game from Bioware anytime soon. I guess all these devs are going to swtch between Orginal IP and star wars games.

I stopped there. As always, call me back when you have facts and not petty rumors.

Well beyond the EA/Microsoft being tight rumor. (makes sense considering Peter Moore is speculated to take up the ceo position and he had lot of do with Microsoft and Sega being tight for the OG xbox).

But facing facts Kinect Star Wars sold pretty well as a standalone game as well as in Bundle form. The Kinect Adventures sequel Kinect disneyland adventures also made a ton of money so it wouldn't be a stretch to imagine that Disney/EA would want to leverage a sequel for the Kinect 2.0 . I mean disney seems more interested in casual gaming affairs in the first place hence the dissolving of Lucas arts and what was left of Disney interactive.
