New Star Wars RTS!

[Derfud]

Looks like the guys who made all of the C&C games will be working on an upcoming star wars RTS.

Check it out:

It'll be another 10 years before this franchise is dead.

Former Westwood can do nothing but breathe new life into it.

(this was announced on the 9th by the way, you're slow )

[Derfud]

Well if I am so slow, why didn't you post it before I did?

[Fehronozova]

It's on my site and I had no idea that anyone here was interested in either Westwood or Star Wars.

[Derfud]

Then obviously you didnt know that Hamma used to run a Tiberian Sun fansite. (Hamma.com? If I remember correctly). We all love westwood here, and how could a forum full of interweb nerds not love star wars?

[Fehronozova]

TibSun was, while not horrible, my least favorite.

But Red Alert, now that's a game...

Bah! Lucas Arts should do a revamped and improved version of battlefront mean't only for the PC.

I hope they will make an episode 7 8 and 9 some time.

or at the very least, release book versions

Yeah, I heard about this about a week back. Petroglyph (which, as mentioned, consists mostly of the Westwood staff) seems to be going in a good direction by making this game. Should be interesting to see a Star Wars game that isn't LucasArts or Sony. I'm guessing it will probably be a pretty decent game if those guys are working on it.

Edit-

They are in book version, just spread throughout multiple series.

And Electro, .

Very cool, westwood was the coolest company ever. C&C kicked ass right up until EA ate it up and shit it out.
