Today’s topic.. Star Wars: 1313, which will probably be the big buzz for the next few months. GameTrailers.com has posted up some new exclusive gameplay footage which shows off Star Wars: 1313′s pretty graphics and gameplay engine.
So far I’ve heard some pretty good feedback coming from this game, especially from the fact that this franchise is gunning for a Mature rating. A darker look at the Star Wars Underworld, playable by a Bounty Hunter has a nice ring to it for me. Sure it’s not Battlefront 3, but I am willing to give it a chance just like I did with The Force Unleashed, which was a big floppy disappointment in my opinion.
Putting aside the fact that they are still screwing us out of Battlefront 3, what are your first impressions of the gameplay footage?
Details and stunning gameplay emerge as Star Wars 1313 takes the stage in this All Access Live interview with the game’s Director Dominic Robilliard at E3 2012!
Well I think this looks awesome!! But lets not hammer it down due to “the lack of lightsabers” or due to “the lack of multiplayer” or even due to the fact that “this is the same company who brought us TFU, LSW and SW Kinect”. Because lets not forget that this is also the same company who brought us Republic Commando, Battlefront and KOTOR. Also, lets have a look at Mass Effect 1 and 2, neither one of those had multiplayer, but they still managed to be some of the most hugely successful, interesting and inspirational games of all time and guess what? No multiplayer!! And as for the lightsabers, what does it even matter? The original Battlefront never allowed us to use them did they? and we all love BF1 because that’s what started us all off!! Plus, it’s about time we had a Star Wars shooter-only game because I’m sick of seeing lightsabers waving around like nobody owns them! Plus this is part of a knew franchise which may be a part of “Star Wars Underworld” and if we don’t stand together to just simply buy this game, Underworld may never become a reality because of us: the ungrateful fans who spat their dummies out just because they wanted one single game!!! Now I hope we can realise this before it’s too late, I really do…
I…I don’t know what to think of 1313. I like the fact they are stepping up the graphic quality and giving another perspective on the Star Wars universe, but at the same time…This just feels out of place, to me this seems like a premonition of dark days to come. Part of me says this is the beginning of a new age of Star Wars, and I don’t like it. It just looks…different…then perhaps what were just accustomed to, but have you ever had, say, a television series where the Mainstream antagonist is eliminated and replaced by another, or there is a giant story line altering event and the show is just not the same or as good anymore? That’s what this feels like to me if you get what im saying.
I have a bad feeling about this…
I agree. However, be sure to realize that it is very early footage, so the character shown is a placeholder. However, instead of the cover mechanic, it would certainly feel more Star-Warsy if it was more of a Dark Forces/Jedi Knight type shooter imo.
Giant story altering event… like how TOR says that everyone’s favorite force user, Revan, was killed 300 years after KOTOR by a few mid-level Sith questers as a dungeon boss?
Lol Yeah. I’m a lvl 35 sith and I can take down one of the most powerful force users ever. Lolwuuuuut. But I like TOR, I just wish they would put in an officer class.

am i the only one who thaught this actully looked pretty awesome, mayby cuz im a huge uncharted fan? idk
Growing up playing games like shadows of the empire, I loved the feeling this game gave me. It’s a gritty dark shooter, with insane graphics.
I know some have complained about no lightsabers, but any true fan of star wars knows there’s a lot more to it then that. Especially if you grew up watching the original triliogy; I think I can count <10x they use lightsabers in those movies.
This is a chance for LA to really start producing quality titles, especially since they've announced they're developing in house, I can't wait to see what they'll come up with.
Oh, stop with the boycott. There are no secret evil boardroom get t where LucasArts is coming up with ways to rip off fans. I told you before that there wouldn’t be a Battlefront for this iteration of consoles, but you people told me to stop coming here if I didn’t have faith. They’ll make a Battlefront but it’ll be a launch title for the new consoles. Obviously if they wanted to make a new one they would’ve done so already. They’d rather try and come up with something new rather than just another Battlefront. That’s why you see FU and Legos and now 1313. Battlefront ain’t happening. If you want to be angry at anyone and boycott anyone then do it at that developer that led people to think they were working on BF with their tweets and false hints. Those are the ones who really had no respect for you.
Well this is my last post on here for a long time. In a few months I will contact my source again and see if he/she has any news about battlefront 3 and if they do I will post it on here. I do think someday we will get this game but I think it will be a few more years. Anyways I hope everyone comes to their senses and finally realizes that a boycott of L.A. needs to be organized. I just have a feeling that i will probably not be playing video games anymore by the time this game comes out I am sad to say.
People on here like Kal & Jacen are a wet dream for LucasArts. You people will blindly buy anything with the Star Wars logo on it. When LucasArts is having their meetings and thinking to themselves “All we need to do is rely on idiotic people to buy our failures.” You are the people they are talking about. People like you are the reason we don’t have Battlefront 3. All it would take is for us to boycott JUST ONE of LucasArts’ high budget projects to get the point across that they can either make Battlefront 3 or go bankrupt. Like someone on here said, we have the power to force LucasArts to make Battlefront 3, but so far, we have yet to exercise that power.
I dont agree with you, they both arent blindly buying a game with a Star Wars logo on it. They are being reasonable and not throwing a fit about it when its not even out yet. I think they are right, this could be the “Battlefront 3″ gameplay but with a better story.
Derek you are correct but one thing we need to do as part of this boycott is to get people in gamestores to discourage the sale of all future Lucas Arts games. I work in a game store and so far I have all of the employees in my store onboard and a friend of mine in another store trying to get the same thing going. With the right amount of effort we can make them feel this in their pockets.
Great post Derek!!!
If you work at a game store and discourage people from purchasing a game, wouldn’t that put your job in jeopardy?
1 well you would not want to do it in front of management.
2 it would only be future Lucas Arts games.
3 And in the store I work The manager would not care anyways, that dumb is younger than I am lol.
I talked to a buddy of mine who is a regional manager for gamestop and a huge star wars fan. I asked him about discouraging the sale of 1313 to customers and he said he will allow cuz he has also gotten tired of lucasarts not announcing battlefront 3. LMAO!!
Saw this, they mention that lucasarts are working on 2 projects, 1313 being one of them.

Love the site guys! If some of us are tetchy about not having BF3, I have to say we were teased with a video of what could have been, then had all hope snatched from under our feet. Lucasarts have a lot of making up to do.
peace and love
You have to reload in battlefront if you haven’t forgotten.
This IS the same company that has given us The Force Unleashed, Lego Star Wars and Star Wars Kinect so we should maybe not get TOO excited, though.
