@Mr. Andy: I raise you using the force on a helpless storm trooper as they test fire the Death Star's energy beam XD.
If this is just going to be cover based shooting and an attempt to do uncharted in a star wars universe I'm a have to punch a baby.
@SoundsLike
I get more of a Mass Effect than Uncharted feel from it, but I've never played Uncharted, so I can't compare it...

I don't know about Star Wars as a whole franchise anymore. They're doing strange, strange things for the property as a whole.
I want to be excited for this but I...just can't...

If they treat lightsabers like glowing baseball bats id rather do without them in it. Instant kills with them or just laser gun fights please.
This could be good but as always must see game-play first.
Still I'm waiting for KOTOR 3 (or reboot) and Battlefront 3!
Come on Lucas Arts I know you want lots of cash right?

Still waiting for battlefront 3 and republic commando, but this could be good as long as its semi open world and not gears of war move A to B level design.
I already liking the sight of TIE Fighters in the header image. I'm sick and tired of things based in the Clone Wars era.
I hope it doesn't play like Battlefront, because that would double the insult of them totally fucking that series over. Which they did do. Because fuck Lucasarts and fuck Star Wars.
Mature probably means gritty and violent with a grey and brown color pallet. Its late so I'm gonna be cynical about this. Also gonna be a crappy story that just showcases memorable characters from the series... I used to get excited for star wars titles, what happened... or is it just me?
@spartan480
Force Unleashed 2 happened. Up until I played that thing I could still get excited about Star Wars titles. After that nothing. I'll be interested in seeing what they have to offer with this one besides a horrible name but I simply can't get excited.

LucasArts has announced the 18 rated third person action adventure game Star Wars 1313.
This mature-themed Star Wars game is made by LucasArts and various Lucasfilm studios, including Industrial Light & Magic, Lucasfilm Animation and Skywalker Sound.
You play a bounty hunter in a "never before seen dark and mature world". It "brings to life" the Coruscant underworld, "the most dangerous place" in the Star Wars galaxy. There's mention of a "high octane thrill ride", "epic action adventure gameplay", "agile" cover-based combat, "epic platforming" and "seamless cinematic gameplay".
On the technology side, the game is built using the Unreal Engine, with full body performance capture and "high end" Hollywood visual effects techniques.
From the official blurb: "Named for Level 1313, a ruthless criminal underground deep below the surface of the planet of Coruscant, the game puts players in control of a deadly bounty hunter as he uses an arsenal of exotic weaponry to hunt down his marks and uncover the truth surrounding a criminal conspiracy.
"Star Wars 1313 emphasizes epic set pieces and fast-paced combat with a hero who uses human skills and gadgets, rather than supernatural Force powers, to make his way through this dangerous world."
LucasArts president Paul Meegan said: "We're excited to share one of the projects LucasArts has been hard at work developing. Star Wars 1313 dives into a part of the Star Wars mythos that we've always known existed, but never had a chance to visit. We are committed to bringing the best gameplay experience and visual fidelity to life and I truly believe the work we are showcasing at E3 will speak for itself."

Please NO MORE cover based combat!

I'm hoping there will be next to no swordplay in this one. And please let their be moments with vehicular combat.
"Star Wars 1313 is being created by LucasArts"
And there goes the chances of this being a good game.
Seriously, does anyone remember the last really good in-house LucasArts-game? I'm thinking Escape from Monkey Island and even that is a controversial choice. Maybe Dark Forces II?
@The Amazing Shenazin
Jar Jar is the key to all of this.

@arkane9
Republic Commando was good and developed in-house so I'm gonna go with that one. Still that was a long time ago.

If this game doesnt have any sort of presence of
A) lightsabers
B) Boba Fett
Then I'll be interested ... if it does, then we all know Lucas will rear his head into this one and screw it up too.

By "more mature" do they mean Boba will continually be angsty about his father's death at the hands of the biggest badass in the galaxy with a purple lightsaber? Because I'll believe that. I can't believe they'll eclipse KoTOR in terms of narrative, however.
I have no faith in LucasArts, simply because of what I've seen/heard from LucasArts since the beginning of this console generation.

I couldn't be less interested if the bounty hunter was a Starkiller clone. Also, no Jabba fuck scenes, no dice.
I have fond memories of Star Wars: Bounty Hunter on the Gamecube, which starred Jango Fett. Hopefully, this can have a similar 'Bounty' system, mixed in with influences from other high-profile Sci-Fi games of recent times (Mass Effect, Deus Ex, etc.)
very mixed feelings about this.
it's kind of odd because for years people complained about LA focusing entirely on Star Wars games and neglecting their other, much loved properties. so they went out on a limb and did something different, developing a new IP (Fracture) with some kind of cool ideas behind it, and it flopped. no surprise that they are now even less inclined to stray far from the golden goose.
however, it's not like people hate Star Wars, as mentioned by others, most people want a new KOTOR, Battlefront, Republic Commando or even X-Wing vs Tie Fighter. LA could have gone with any of those and pleased fans with minimal effort, and yet since Fracture they chose to make 2 MMORPGs, Force Unleashed, some horrible nightmare Kinect game and now a stop 'n' pop 3PS?
get your fucking act together Lucasarts. i hope this game doesn't suck because there is really no excuse when you're super rich, working with one of the most popular franchises of all time, and you have a stable full of EASY sequels that people are willing to eat up going ignored.

boba fett became ruined when they made a 10 YEAR OLD VERSION OF HIM the main antagonist in star wars:clone wars. George Lucas really hates the character for some reason
"and they are going after a mature audience with this one"
So the morning cartoon graphics replaced by all that is brown and gray?
