At work today, we just put out an ad in the store for Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (it was something of that nature, can't remember exactly the title). It was just a poster for the counter, but said nothing about the game. I'm assuming it's a bundle pack with the two games, but I have no idea.

That's what I've been waiting on. I'll get it for the PC if it doesn't come with a wiightsaber.

I wonder if it will have any co-op. That's the great thing about the Lego Star Wars games.

The co-op is fun, but the damn camera still needs some serious work. Being able to control the camera (if you consider a slight twist to either side) helped a bit in the second one, but it got terribly frustrating at times playing with my daughter only to have one of us drag the other into a hole repeatedly.

Its sort of a bundle, but it has more characters and some new levels as well.

I know it! I have to drop out for a minute at certain points, then rejoin my son, because of it.

You are correct. I saw a bit more about it at work today, and levels and new characters are it (over 160 playable characters now it said). It also said something about new/stronger force powers, but there were no details.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. -- May 24, 2007 -- LucasArts and TT Games celebrated today the 30th anniversary of the classic movie series that spans generations with the announcement of LEGO® Star Wars: The Complete Saga. Building on the success of both LEGO Star Wars "block-buster" videogames, each complete with LEGO action and minifigure humor, The Complete Saga enables families to play through the events of all six Star Wars movies in one videogame for the first time ever. Developer Traveller's Tales takes full advantage of the unique capabilities of all three next-generation consoles, while also adding new characters, new levels and new features. Players can build and battle this fall on the Wii?, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360? videogame system from Microsoft. Traveller's Tales is also creating an entirely new Nintendo DS? version, developed brick by brick from the ground up.

According to the NPD Group, domestic sales of the two LEGO Star Wars videogame releases reached nearly 7 million units through March 2007, and LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy was the No. 3 best-selling title of 2006.

"As we usher in the next generation of videogame consoles, LucasArts is leading the way in family entertainment," said Jim Ward, president of LucasArts. "We're proud of the phenomenal success of LEGO Star Wars II and how it delivered all the fun, humor and action of the Original Trilogy to the entire family. Now, with The Complete Saga, we're excited to finally offer the entire saga playable in one package for the first time ever."

"LucasArts was an amazing partner on LEGO Star Wars II, and working with them on The Complete Saga continues to be a great experience," said Tom Stone, director at TT Games. "We're also thrilled to be focusing on next-generation consoles and creating content that plays to the strength of each system."

The Complete Saga takes players to the most beautiful LEGO galaxy ever assembled with high-definition graphics on the PLAYSTATION 3 system and Xbox 360. And with both consoles' online capabilities, families spread across the world can unite to rebuild a galaxy in pieces with cooperative two-player, drop-in/drop-out gameplay. Meanwhile, the unique Wii and Nintendo DS control schemes result in the most interactive LEGO Star Wars gaming experience yet.

From the Trade Federation's "negotiations" with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace to the space battle above Endor in Return of the Jedi, The Complete Saga allows players to kick some brick through 36 Story Mode levels, including Episode II's newly added high-speed pursuit of bounty hunter Zam Wessell. Traveller's Tales has revamped levels from the original LEGO Star Wars to match the gameplay evolutions found in LEGO Star Wars II, and Prequel Trilogy characters can now be mixed and matched with those from the Original Trilogy ... more than 160 in all.



Of course the more I read the more I hope whomever is in charge of LA has an accidental gun discharge in their mouth. First Unleashed is a no show for the PC, and now they re-release the lego game, of which only the 2nd half made it to PC before, with no scheduled PC release. What's wrong, can't afford any actual programmers there George.
