Star Wars 1313: Some footage courtesy of Gametrailers! Some Commentary courtesy of Myself.

        This game is running on a high end PC with a high end Nvidia graphics card.  Which basically means that the visually fidelity here can be immediately discounted.  If we do that, it’s Uncharted in the Star Wars Universe.  Which sounds great.  But it really isn’t anything innovative.  I was excited the first time I saw this footage and definitely excited that maybe there are more interesting things to come.  Like maybe the use of a rocket pack to traverse areas or some really crazy flame thrower action.  It is definitely a source ripe with ideas for a fun and exciting game.  Even though this was only the first thing they showed I’m not as cold on it as I probably should be as it really hasn’t brought anything new to the table.  I think the game has great potential.  Whether it lives up to that potential or not, has yet to be seen.

       Fiction wise the levels in Coruscant can be considered whole cities unto themselves so just because the whole thing takes place on level 1313, doesn’t mean that confines the player to a small area.
