Disney has closed LucasArts, and you guys are none too happy about it. Johnny sheds his mourning garb to take a closer look at what you've been saying.

1 Like Your two weeks are up Johnny, where is the NEW and IMPROVED Feedbackula?
Loads of idiotic comments to choose from, you may need an Extended Edition?
(Just leave my comments off?)
They died with the Star Wars DDR.
That game will be the Star Wars Holiday Special of the next generation...
Ok, so Disney, a company that originally made Mickey Mouse cartoons, now makes movies, games (very bad ones, at that), and shuts down LucasArts - The legendary company that gave birth to Star Wars. LucasArts screwed up Star Wars in the past few years. BioWare, who made tons of GREAT RPG games, also screwed up Star Wars by making the SW:TOR, and screwing over the fans of the franchise, especially by their ridiculous F2P model.
I'm confused, guys. Who should I hate the most?! Because, honestly, I don't know anymore. I get disappointed daily.
They should give 1313 to Bioware. They seem to do a pretty good job with The Old Republic.
Disneys a bitch..couldve been a promising experience for the Star Wars Universe for decades to come...friendly advice disney...STICK TO MAKING MOVIES TOSSERS!! Geez
I think its a misconception that the developer is totally responsible for making producing games if you remember lucasarts had a concept and footage of swbf3 but if you do a little research you see that it was c*ck blocked by seniors on the Lucas company...
to be fair lucas arts hasnt produced a decent title since the late 90's but i can't say i'm not a little disappointed in Disney, they could have turned it around but clearly didnt want the hassle of running a games studio.
@Chickenesta Starwars battlefront 1&2, mercenaries and both had concepts and fan bases to make more at least decent games among other decent games were star wars the old republic, republic commando also had some concept art among other games like the star wars space games not to mention the lego starwars games that would have made some money in future incarnations. What I'm saying is why fire developers, artists, writers who already think "starwars" and would LOVE to continue work on AT LEAST decent games in the future.
@LIKEABAUSS @Chickenesta Star wars BF 1+2 were good, but not great and many will say had great potential but failed miserably in its delivery, they didn't sell brilliantly and many die hard fans didn't bother.
Of the games you mentioned Old Republic which is the biggest selling and most popular series from the Star Wars games genre weren't even developed by Lucas Arts nor was Lego Star Wars.
I hope all of the developers find jobs quickly, just one person loosing their job is tragic let alone 150, but lets not pretend Lucas Arts had produced anything of real substance since the 90's :(
Actually the more I think about the closure the more excited I get at the thought of all these new studios that might get involved in a new Dark Forces game or a new XvT title, the stuff people really want to see that Lucas Arts never seemed to want to realize.
@Chickenesta um starwars battlefront 1&2 with the tech and fan base for another not to mention the old republic AND my favorite Mercenaries that also had fan base and concepts for a third. Not to mention Republic commandos which was always called for a sequel the AT LEAST decent star fighting games among others so to say that they have not produced at least a decent title is a bit far of a leap.
@Chickenesta sorry I have no clue how both these comments were posted but you get the idea...
Why don't you people out there stop posting stupid comments and think about all the people that lost their jobs.
If I think about games like Sam n Max and Full Throttle, then yeah its a shame. But some others... maybe not so much
1 Like trying to stay positive, i hope Disney do a good job with the star wars series. Lucas arts wasn't producing anything significant but have in the past, some really memorable games, Bounty hunter rocked my world, still play it today. Gone but not forgotten.
Disney contradicted themselves by saying they are looking for proven developers to make games for them, Lucas Arts was a proven developer, they just want to wait for the hype to die down before closing the doors on creating Star wars games for good and focus on making the three new Star Wars movies.
Kinda expected, nothing good has been coming out of lucas arts for a while. It's not like star wars is gone, they just wanna do it better.
Anyone else think this guy should host a resurrection of the old Gamespot show "Button Mashers"?
hey there! can someone please tell me the name of that mexican-trumpet-electric guitar mix song plays during the show? Thank you boys & girls.
hey jhonny... why don't you make a feedbackula episode based on comments from this episode, then make another episode based on comments from that episode, then another one, another one, then another one it's maybe endless but it will be fun :P

Hey Jonnehh.. I can't wait for the Feebacukla for when Nintendo pulls out of the Console making business :D or should I emote :*(
Look Star Wars sucks anyway, big damn deal. It hasn't been good since the three original movies. Finally they put a nail in that Lucas Art's coffin. Good riddens to their shitty bus load of crappy endless releases of game franchises.
@DIN02982 @tmthywtsn out of nearly two decades of their company being active and that's all you can come up with? really?
1 Like @tmthywtsn You just tried to defend your argument against a "personal taste" however, you use a personal taste to defend your own view. I don't mean to be all nasty internet troll but your logic train has derailed.
@tmthywtsn Mercenaries 1 was a really great Lucas arts game. One of my true favorites of all time. Of course the sequel was one of the worst a terrible game.
@Apastron @tmthywtsn @DIN02982 Okay you seem to make some sense, but your thoughts are still based mostly on opinion an personal taste. I've played a majority of those games mentioned and found none of them to be exceptional. Maybe Shadow of the Empire could have been something.
@Apastron @tmthywtsn @DIN02982
I'm sure Disney will let Bioware make another Star Wars game.
@tmthywtsn The contradiction stems from the fact that there have been several very good games Star Wars games (not all of them necessarily LucasArts' efforts) as illustrated by @DIN02982, and that's excluding the LEGO Star Wars games, which perhaps with the exception of the Clone Wars one were also very good.
I personally don't like Star Wars but to dismiss all Star Wars games as being bad is myopic.
@Apastron @tmthywtsn um the first three movies were good, not the games. Where's the contradictory in that?
3 Like @tmthywtsn Republic Commando, Jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy, Rogue Squadron 3 Rebel Strike, Empire at War, Star Wars Galaxies
1 Like @tmthywtsn It proves that it has been good since the first three movies, which contradicts what you said in the first place.
