I still can't get over the fact that EA now has complete control over the Star Wars license thanks to Disney. It means we'll never get a Jedi Knight 4, Rogue Squadron 4, or a GOOD Battlefront game.
Does anyone else here have fond memories of playing classic Lucasarts titles? Some of my favorites are Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast, Battlefront 1 & 2, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds, Rogue Squadron 1 & 2, and Shadows of the Empire. And there are many other good but lesser known titles like Republic Commando and that 6th gen Clone Wars game, as well as some of the ones I mentioned already like SOTE and Galactic Battlegrounds, and older classics like Super Star Wars and the arcade games.
Oh how I miss Lucasarts. They truly loved and understood Star Wars, and weren't just in it for the money, unlike that evil company that goes by the initials Evil Assholes.

I'm still pissed that they immediately cancelled Star Wars 1313 (aka the Boba Fett game) when Disney took control.

Bounty Hunter and even the Ep III tie-in game was good, too.

I remember Shadows of the Empire. It's a pity Disney didn't. I would've loved to have seen that in movie form.
I think I also saw Jedi Knight on sale at an Op-Shop the other day. I remember watching my brother play that. LoL I love 90's live action cinematics.

I like all Rogue Squadron games a lot, but specially the first one as that one was with space ships missions only.
I always wanted a proper sequel of that game without on foot missions, but we never got one. Now that we have VR I miss it even more.

I have fond memories of playing battlefront 2 and a bit of battlefront 1. I also have played and beat secret weapons over normandy about 3 or 4 times which was also made by lucas arts. It has a pretty good main theme too. Attachments:

The games aren't really any worse off with EA, LucasArts' game division lost it well before getting shut down. I liked one they also made cool games like Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Metal Warriors.
