Nah, they're dumb. They are having cash flow problems because of their stupidity. Since the prequels, its been one stupid decision after another. It really doesn't take a rocket scientist to make a good Star Wars game, yet they manage to both publish and develop garbage. The few gems they managed to put out were forgotten in favor of more garbage titles.
LucasArts is by far the stupidest game company ever and only continue to exist because of the strength of the Star Wars franchise.
As for this next gen action/adventure title I expect more of the same. They will copy the core element of whatever is popular then add a new feature that makes it seem like they are on the cutting edge of gaming tech.
They will continue to ignore the obvious money makers that gamers want in favor of trying something new that will likely fail anyway.
Haha, I thought the same thing. Action/Adventure does not equal Space Combat (Tie Fighter/X-Wing) or Large-Scale Shooter (Battlefront), and like that they've lost me. =P
Jedi Knight .. Come on ! :P
Stop making Force Unleashed games. Stop making dingbat Kinect games.
JUST MAKE BATTLEFRONT 3!
I swear LucasArts is the dumbest developer this gen.
