[The Legonater]

[Oky]

It's "trailer"! And yes, the March 25 date seems pretty official now.

Oh! Now I understand!

[commdr_neyo]

Wow, I really like the trailer, this is just getting better and better

Here are a couple of Gameplay Videos also! One each of Geonosis Arena, Weapons Factory and Ambush

Great. CW vehicles on Geonosis in Ep. 2. EDIT: Just realized that's from the CW battle.

The Arena level doesn't look so bad, a lot better than the old one, but I don't really like their use of the '07 droidekas. Those tings are just ugly. As for Ambush, it looks to be pretty fun.

Loving those gameplay vids! Geonosis isn't really anything new, and the only real new thing on Ambush is the minikit reveal, but the weapons factory sceane is brand new. I was expecting use of the story swap and switching between Barriss/Asohka and Luminara/Anakin. Using the big ground battle instead is interesting. I'm just getting the feeling they're using that feature too much.

Actually in the AOTC Battle Of Geonosis they will be CW Vehicles anyway so don't get your hopes up, this video proves it.

Its nearer the end of the video.

Completely seconded. Although the original arena was okay, it really didn't do justice to the sceane. And the original droidekas were more movie-accurate than the 2007 ones. And yeah, Ambush is going to be a great level.

Cool, thanks for the links! Have you looked at the other videos in that channel? They have lots of other cutscenes from the game

Geonosis Arena 1 2 3 4

Jedi Crash 1 2 3 4

Blue Shadow Virus 1 2 3

Duel of the Droids 1 2 3 4

They seem to be somewhat prelim though. The Vulture Droid's head looks all weird and for some reason Jar Jar has Nadahr's torso. They seem to have cut Jedi Crash quite short. Anakin doesn't even get injured, and it goes from the crash straight to the defending of the village.

Looks like Obi Wan isn't a big fan of stickers either.

I wonder if you will have to fight Goldie as Artoo.

Yes I have indeed. That happens to be my Youtube Channel which is how I have seen them all

[Oky]

Oh, I see. But why didn't you post them then, and how did you get them anyway?

[commanderneyo]

Oh, I see. But why didn't you post them then, and how did you get them anyway?

In response.

1. I planned to post them once I had all of them (Look at my answer below for the reason)

2. I got them all from the Lucasarts Lego Star Wars 3 Beta (From the Achievements where you unlock videos)

EDIT: Found This.

The achievement/trophy list has been revealed.

[The Legonater]

The achievement/trophy list has been revealed.

I'm liking some of those achievments- such as releasing villains from the brig- sounds like extra stuff. But there aren't a whole lot of season 2 missions...

What's this about 'Converting systems'? Do we get to go back and play it like the BF2 Galactic Campaign mode?

[CMP]

Good, they're only using the episodes worth levels. The system capturing thing sounds interesting. Maybe in addition to levels, you can do a 'bonus' level for each planet, capturing it, that being where the massive battles take palce?

I was just thinking that- if so, it would be sweet. LSW3 is becoming more and more impressive. I really hope rescuing villains from the brig involves a lot of charecters and switches.

I have the new march gameinformer magezine and will post images once I scan them. The picture show a geonosis arena, sceance swap and one other... No release date is said.

My Walmart had a demo of the game on Xbox 360. You could play in two levels, Shadow of the Malevolence and Destroy Malevolence. I don't recall which I played, but I was inside the Malevolence trying to rescue Padme.

The gameplay was pretty fun and entertaining. There were five droids in the first hallway, which were destroyed easily, using some combo lightsaber moves. For once, the computer player helped out, and killed two droids. We pressed on, and got to what seemed to be a train station. I recall vaguely this episode, and this scene. R2-D2 had to fly to a platform to one of the "Droid" portal thingies, and a train full of super battle droids stopped. After destroying the droids, using a combination of the force and lightsaber play, we hopped to the next platform. We repeated the process, and two super battle droids and a droideka stopped. The droideka was unfortunately the 2007 version, with the ugly legs. The computer destroyed one of the super battle droids, and I killed the other two droids. I then had to use the force to attach a platform to a purple brick, much like in Lego Harry Potter.

Then I realized how late I was in getting somewhere, and raced off.

That was Destroy Malevolence.

Thanks for the description of the level even though you had to race off and couldn't finish the demo

Nice. Does the computer have a damage penalty, so far as you could tell? Like, does it take it longer to destroy objects?

[Sisco]

Thanks for telling me what I was playing, I wasn't quite sure. Then again, I'm not up to par on my CW trivia!

Sorry I had to go, it really was an important appointment.

I wasn't sure, but I think that the computer player might have had to take two hits to kill a droid, whereas I only had to hit a droid once.

Another thing I forgot to mention is that R2 has that same zapper thing he's always had, the one that zaps droids, deactivating them for a while.

[The Legonater]

That's sweet. I wonder if a Wal-Mart of HMV near me will have that- a lot of them have consoles.

[Oky]

Yeah, they had a demo in a best buys in Washington DC too. I didn't have much time to try it, but I liked what I saw. The graphics (on PS3) are great, and the gameplay feels more fluent.

Still waiting on those images, Sologuy.

Oh, and the emperor will be in the game too. Codeword "DARKSIDE".
