Does anyone else remember the old Wing Commander Privateer game? Personally I loved it and have always wanted to see another of it's kind done very very well.
I think Star Wars is the perfect genre / world to do this in. The open game play style of a GTA combined with the Star Wars universe and a great flight sim sounds like a perfect idea to me.
STAR WARS GRAND THEFT AUTO: IMPERIAL CITY.
You are a bounty hunter on Coruscant hired by the Empire to hunt down several Alliance terrorist cells hiding on the planet. You can jack airspeeders and swoops. Weapons you acquire are Imperial blaster rifles, blaster pistols and lightsabers. Over the course of the game you begin to sympathize with the rebel's cause and eventually switch sides. I can even envision a mission where you have to break some rebel spies out of an Imperial prison. You an also go to several movie locations. The Senate, the ruined Jedi Temple, the Outlander Club. This game is a no brainer and would sell like crazy.
I like the Death Star idea, but it would suffer from only having one location, and you definetely shouldn't change events from the movie. Instead, maybe have a mission where you run into Han & Chewie, who are fleing from the Stormtroopers and you help them reach the landing bay. And maybe as a final mission you have to steal a ship and get off the Death Star before it is destroyed. That could be pretty cool. There would be explosions that rock the corridors and cause all kinds of debris to fall down and block your path. And Stormtrooper zombies would be awesome. Makes me want a Star Wars Dead Rising game...
Star Wars Grand Theft Auto needs to hold the entire galaxy as the "hood" At least have an Inner worlds and Outer Regions edition. That. Would. Rock.
i had the same thoughts as you guys. THis game would rock as long as ur not just limited to the death star ( i think you would get really tired of that one environment).
But if u could travel from planet to planet via GTA style but on ships and planes and enter different environments, that would be the best game ever invented. I guess it would be similar to WOW in a way.
The Death Star is merely the first game. A testing of the waters... it is still is Grand Theft Auto but Star Wars too. The next games would be a lot more Grand Theft Auto set in the Star Wars Universe. Cloud City as the follow up then, a no holds barred version of Courscant..
Is it wrong that I still have fond memories of playing the Empire Strike Back game on the Atari 2600?
I've grown a bit sick of the constant Star Wars video games. What I really want is a Doctor Who video game. An RPG where you have to save the universe without a gun. Just your wits, a sonic screwdriver, and an awful lot of running.
Grand Theft TARDIS has sort of a nice ring to it. Could do game with the Doctor. Have to be really clever and find new informatioon about new alien races.
I think Coboy Bebop would make a good RPG too, have to collect Bouty Heads but you can't kill them or you won't get paid.. If you go too long between repairs your ship breaks dwn develooping random problems for you to slve amnd if you go too long beteen stops you run out of food or get stranded without fuel. Excellnt stuff. They coul make the bounty heads and other extras real colorful too.
Maybe Animate it just like the series.
I agree ana Grand Theft Game in Star Wars should be Galaxy wide. It should at least include Tatooine where yopu can sell your stolen space ship to Jabba the Hutt's Chop Shop and by drinks at the Cantina. Maybe they could even have Luke and Ben's scene or Han Solo's in the back ground qwhile you makre your deals.
Maybe in a Doctor Who game they you could be the Doctopr but not have the Doctors memories and have them hiddewmn in artifacts like that watch from the series anfd eand when you retrieve them you get information on the alien races your encountering and things important to getting through the game.
