One more on the N64, I think it was called "Battle for Naboo", and another PS2 one, somthing tieing in with Episode 2. Hmm, only 14. |

Come on! You telling me nobody ever played Yoda Stories?! I loved that game! Shadows of the Empire was another classic.
I suppose the logical thing to do now is the have the good ol' fasioned "Where did Star Wars Galaxies go wrong" discussion.

Ahhh Shadows of the Empire was really, forgot abut that. Good book too.
Tbh I haven't played Galaxies properly, I had a short go and that was it. I heard that people were particularly annoyed when Sony changed the Jedi and other game systems after two - three years and a lot of people lost certain medals etc |

They basically took one look at the money WoW was making and totally altered the game to the point that it didn't even resemble the original. It went overnight from a skill based Roleplaying and virtual world game to a level based combat one. The real bad blood came because they didn't even consult the community or announce the changes until a week before they were due to roll them out. The Jedi issue was that in the original game you had to work for about a year or so to unlock a jedi character (it was set after New Hope so Jedi were meant to be really rare)whereas when the game changed you could play one from the start leading to about 50% of the server population being taken up by them, while people who had worked really hard to unlock them got massivly downpowered to balance the new combat rules.
Plus none of the code actually worked on release. It's probably the most spectacular failure in the history of online games. Espcially considering how good it used to be. Even today you can find an SWG Exiles thread on almost any online game forum. |

Sounds like typical Sony move, take something good, make some crap decisions.... screw the customers/players |
