I really enjoyed Republic Commandos, even though it is a bit short with
only 3 sections for the game. My hope is that we'll be seeing more stuff
when downloaded material becomes available. I'm hoping they held off
some levels do to spoilers of Revenge of the Sith
Levels I was thinking would be great downloads are...
<<<<<<<<<<<<SPOILERS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Don't read if you do not want to know some of the details of Episode III
<<<<<<<<<<<<<SPOILERS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I'm thinking of Order 66, where the Clones turn on the Jedis and start
attacking them. Think of the beginning of the level where a Jedi general
is leading you into battle, and just as the battle is won you get Order
66, and now you must hunt down and kill all the Jedis.
Or Attack of the Jedi Temple, where you follow Anakin (Darth Vader at
this point since he is christened Sith Lord before encountering Obi-Wan
on Mustafar) as he destroys the Jedi Temple and you even help out
Emperor Palpatine (Darth Sidious) as he battles Yoda on the Senate
floor.
Or maybe fighting on Mustafar as Anakin finishes off the Separtists
leaders. Or rescuing Palatine on the Invisible Hand while Anakin and
Obi-Wan battle Dooku and Grievous. Theres a lot of worlds that could be
open once the movie comes out.
Just some ideas...
