The article is no longer a junk article. Look at it. Please tell the others who voted to delete it. It is not a good article. But it is not a joke article. Look at it now. Please tell the others and reconsider your vote. Thank you. Mattkenn3 Talk 01:40, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll see what I can do about it. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 15:22, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

RE:E-mail address
I do, but I'd rather keep my e-mail private. Unit 8311 Talk!  19:21, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * If you'd be fine with me seeing it and you just don't want to post it publicly, you can send a message to cuswfn@gmail.com. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:22, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Also, might I suggest using some Gears of War images for Cruentus? This looks perfect for it. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 01:13, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I already considered using GoW images, but that one looks like it'll come in handy, so thanks. BTW, I'd rather work on CUSFWN the conventional way instead of this email thing if its okay with you. It's just that it'll be easy to me to make adjustments and additions, and we can do the invisible text thing so that people don't have to look at it if they don't want to. There's also the problem that I'm very lazy when it comes to checking emails. Hope you understand. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  17:16, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright. Just to clarify, I didn't mean we'd be doing all of the coding and formating on the E-mail, we'd be writing things like reviews on there and then put it on here when we were nearly finished the newsletter. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 17:28, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay. In any case, I already have some plans for the newsletter. You can get the templates started, which we might as well do earlier than later. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  17:39, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

K, we should also decide on what we want to work on and who we want to interview. Three interviews might be good, or four and we could each do half of them. I've set up a groupboard for CUSWFN interviews that's much easier to get onto then IRC (IRC doesn't even work on my computer), and I've written my thoughts on TOR and the new TFU downloadable content. This is what I'm planning for the newsletter for the Fanon Updates and SW Media: Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 17:50, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * ASWS/The Chosen One/The Alderaan Affair (interview with CurrentBigThing, perhaps?)
 * Knighthood: The Web Series (interview with Vic, perhaps?)
 * Project Cruentus (you should be writing since this you're a member)
 * The Drewton Legacy
 * The Mandalorian Wars
 * Darth Haagen - Heir to the Sith
 * The Clone Wars - first episode reviews (would you like to do this one if you've seen the episodes?)
 * KOTOR: Vindication comic
 * The Old Republic (already written)
 * TFU downlodable content (already written)
 * I'll do the CW episodes and the FA/GA reviews. CBT would be a good person to interview. Who else do you have in mind? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  17:52, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * We interviewed Brandon two editions ago and there hasn't been any TCO activity for a while, Vic hasn't been interviewed yet, and Tom was interviewed last edition on the site in general so it would have to be about Cruentus this time. Ataru might be good to interview about the site. I could also interview you about your thoughts on Cruentus if you want. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 18:01, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah. I'm more than willing to be interviewed on Cruentus; tom maybe as well. And I agree on the interview with Ataru, seeing as he's more of an outsider and less likely to be biased. I could also ask MPK to do a review or essay on something; can't think what, though. Gotta have some variety from the CW thing. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  18:09, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Just as a suggestion, and interview with all three of us (me, Vic, CBT) could be fun as well. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 20:36, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Heh, yeah, except the problem with having an interview with three people is that they either answer a question all at once, or they take a bit to decide who should answer the question  Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:39, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Well something like that is actually easy to structure. Rather than having general questions, you ask more specific questions that are directed to one specific person, then ask another question directed to another person, etc. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 20:41, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I see. By the way, I've set up a groupboard for CUSWFN interviews. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:43, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
 * My additions to FA/GA and SWM are done. If you need any more, ask. I'm going now, but you can set up my Cruentus interview. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  20:53, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Main Page once more

 * Drewton, I'm sure you're tired of seeing me post on your talk page repeatedly about the same tired issue. I just wanted to ask and see if you were still working on a Main Page redesign. There was general interest in doing so earlier, and it is one of the components for the Featured Works system, which are also supposed to be on the main page. I know you had an earlier revision up, but wanted to check in on progress thus far. Thanks. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 04:26, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm really sorry about that. I'll have it done today. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:41, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Once again, thanks for your work on it. I'd say that the next best step would be to code it and place it on a user subpage to test it and see what it looks like before putting it up for community discussion. Cheers. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.svg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 01:41, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Hey!
Hey, Drewton, what's up. Could you please fix my sub-page here? It's not how it should be. Thanks--Jedi Kasra (talk) 19:20, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * That's odd, nothing appears wrong...unfortunately, I have to go right now, but I'll be able to look at it when I come back. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:23, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, Brandon Rhea already fixed it for you. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 23:05, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks. I finished with the Revan info and responded to your message on Wookieepedia. We'll talk tomorrow.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 21:02, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Plan
Ols from the SWRP had an idea regarding Vukure's endless socks, which I'm now proposing to you. The idea was that we tell George Skywalker to make sure his brother stops sockpuppeting, or we ban the IP. If his brother can't stop him being a sockpuppet, no one can. Bac, myself, CBT and Solus have agreed to the idea, but it's administrator consensus I need, which includes you. Please get back to me before the end of the week, when I go with the then current consensus. :) -- (talk) (contributions) 19:17, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I would support that if George could still access his account, yeah. Also, for Vukure's articles, it's been one-two weeks since Vukure's been banned, and George hasn't done anything about them. If he doesn't by another two weeks, I'm going to propose them for deletion again. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:23, 21 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, George can still access his account, so okays. --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] (talk) (contributions) 19:25, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Re: ASWS KOTOR
I don't really know the story surrounding it (the canon version and your version). Could you fill me in? - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 03:40, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The main plot of the comic series is about, who was said to have the Padawans in his class when it was actually their Masters who had killed them, fearing they would become Sith. In Vindication (for both versions), the "Padawan killer"  intends to clear his name. The main differences are the  usurper  revealing himself to be the father of  (a bit too "I am your father-ish, yes, but it works well with the story); Zayne Carrick, who originally completely passed on the Jedi's offer to make him a Knight, joins the ; Lucien Draay becomes ; and 's sister, , has a cameo. In adition, there are new and extended scenes, and it's implied that Zayne and Haazen become the  and .  Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 14:01, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Is that the plot of the canon one, or yours? If it's yours, the ASWS already has a Jedi Exile. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 14:42, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, I don't think this would work then. It's not specifically said that he becomes the Exile in the story, but it's heavily implied and I'd like to say it in his article. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 14:59, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, that seems to be what would hold us back from this. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 15:00, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Few questions...
Drew, the IRC conversations section seems to have disappeared from some of the CUSFWN tabs. This deliberate? 'cause Arav's IRC talk seems to be in the SWF news section, which isn't the best place. Unit 8311 Talk!  12:24, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't see a point having an entire section for it. If it has to do with SWF, then it makes sense it would be in SWF news, and the same for fanon interviews. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 15:01, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

If I may offer my opinion, it's not really news. It's an interview regarding general things on Star Wars Fanon, including things that have happened in the past. A different section makes more sense, in my opinion. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 15:03, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I see your point, but I'm kinda leaning towards Brandon. Perhaps we should do a special interview section and put the irc conversations and interviews there, which would be the logical thing. Meanwhile, I'll start on news. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  19:03, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Blocking
"If you were not actually the user, and if the user was actually a friend/relative that was helping you with articles, please E-mail the administrators."

- You

Did you get a Checkuser search run on those two users? If not, unless it's obvious (ie, they admit it), you need to get that done before blocking someone because it really be a friend or relative. Assume good faith in these regards. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 23:20, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, though I thought it was extremely obvious. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 00:03, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Just because two people edit the same article doesn't mean they're the same person. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 00:08, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't assume it only because of that; if I did, I would have simply given a fanon stealing warning. What made it obvious was because they both used the same kind of formating, and he'd been banned at the time so it made sense he'd be ban evading. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 00:12, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Assume good faith. For all you know, it's two users who are completely new to the world of Wikia formatting. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 00:13, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

How goes the cover? -- <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 19:40, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm really sorry about that, I've been so busy that I honestly forgot. I'll do it again now. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:41, 24 November 2008 (UTC)


 * It's fine. Life's a busy place. :) --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 19:42, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me about this. It's almost complete, and I've uploaded a test image here. However, I didn't want to use Asdan for it. It's your choice and I can add him in, but it would look busy and the picture of him is just a Paint-ish drawing, which wouldn't fit in well with the others. The current revision in that poster is Vader with his lightsaber, and the previous is a larger version of Vader which (ironically, lol) doesn't take up as much room. If you don't like this at all, I can redo it. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:27, 24 November 2008 (UTC)


 * That's fantastic. Thanks very much! --[[Image:Darth tom sig.png|100px]] <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 20:40, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
 * No problem. I'll just do a few more finishing edits, and it'll be done :) Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:45, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Chapter
I just wanted to let you know that the full Chapter Nineteen of The Chosen One has been released for your viewing pleasure. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 04:24, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll read it in a few minutes. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:25, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

GAH
I WAS waiting to block that guy for not sourcing his images, but NO, here comes Drewton! :( --  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 15:47, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Lol, sorry. You can un-block and re-block him if you want. I've gotten depressed banning users for uploading unsourced images, anyway :P Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 15:55, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Character Scupltures
Pardon me, but do you take requests? DanMat6288 (Talk) 15:50, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * What kind of requests? Custom figures, pictures, etc? Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 16:01, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I was wondering... see, I created an original character as seen here, and drawing realistic images isn't exactly something I'm good at. I uploaded a more "cartoony" sketch of Reuben as a reference to what he looks like, but I was recently wondering if you wouldn't mind making and uploading one of your own images of him; I rather like the sculpture you made of Raymus Drewton (as seen in the featured articles). DanMat6288 (talk page) - (my contributions) - (meet Reuben Oz) 16:23, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd prefer not using that particular figure, if you don't mind. I don't make any of the figures myself, but the characters would seem the same. However, if you like the look of him, you might want to use or the very similar looking actor, Christian Bale.  Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:23, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh... so you can't make a Reuben figure? DanMat6288 (Talk) 24.3.60.49 19:31, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

I don't actually make any of the figures I use. They're Star Wars figures by Hasbro. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 19:32, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

POTW
Have you any ideas for the CUFWN POTW? I have a few ideas if you don't. Unit 8311  Talk!  17:04, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't really have any ideas myself, so what are yours? Or we could also vote on the POTW in the forums. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 14:33, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
 * This, zis, dis, thees. You don't like any of those, we go with the forum vote. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  17:15, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

I see. The problem with them though, except for the Narod Antrell one, is that that they're not actually really fan-made. Not that they're bad pictures. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:48, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
 * They are, if you want to get into technicalities, because they were composed by a fan, although the media itself is not. Actually the last one is fully original, but not originally SW-related. But if you had to choose one, which one would it be? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  17:39, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Snow droid in photonovel
I have a few questions just to make sure that placing the snow droid in your photonovel agrees with the continuity of my article. First off, your chapter does take place during the Clone Wars, right? If not, then I won't be able to place it in my continuity and it will have to just be an easter egg. Second, try to add blasters to their hands; I have a Hasbro super battle droid and blasters won't fit into their hands, so this might be difficult. Lastly, when does the battle take place and have you thought of a name for the planet? Thanks.&mdash;Darthtyler (Talk) 22:14, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, in 21 BBY. I've already shot most of the battle, so I'll have to photoshop the blaster in. I haven't decided on any name for the planet yet. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 22:23, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Great, well, once you post it on the Internet, I'll expand my article. Well I'm here, do you know any victories for the Separatists on an ice world during the Clone Wars? All I can find are Republic victories, and I want them to have atleast one victory, because the current victory the snow droids have is on Rhen Var, and the Republic took it back later.&mdash;Darthtyler (Talk) 22:33, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks. I don't know any right now, I'll tell you if I find one. The battle in my chapter (possibly) will be a CIS victory, though. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 22:38, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Also, I apologize if this sounds rude, but when I'm starting to archive something for FA and GA, I am going to go to all of the pages (SWF:FA, the history, upcoming, etc.), and when you also start doing that despite the fact that I've already started it causes edit conflicts. This isn't the first time it's happened, but I've bitten my tongue before. I know you're trying to help and all, but because of the edit conflicts it's actually not helpful. If you ended up posting up the updates first, it ends up having wasted my time.

Weird question about snow droid
Hey, I had a weird question about your comment under the "support" section of snow droid's FAN. Why would snow droid be better left GA? I just wanted to know, for future reference.&mdash;Darthtyler (Talk) 22:59, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd just usually consider those kind of articles/any articles on droids GAs. I don't really have any reasons beside that. Also, out of curiousity, is J10 attack drone your next "project" which you'll eventually nominate for good/featured status? Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 23:04, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay. Once I'm finished with it, probably, if it doesn't look too bad.&mdash;Darthtyler (Talk) 23:04, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Just to be clear, that is purely Drewton's preference. Due to there being no such rule regarding droid articles becoming featured, the Council of Seers as a whole welcomes and encourages any such article to be nominated. - <font color="#1A2BBB">Brandon Rhea <font color="#1A2BBB">(talk) <font color="#1A2BBB">(contribs) 23:12, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

In Bac's Forum, Ataru added sections for each individual op, so please strike your vote in regards to the now redundant 'Remove all Non-Admin ops'. If you still hold your stance regarding removing ops from all non-admins, just vote 'remove' on each separate operator. However, in regards to Jedi, please look at the evidence first, some of which is available in both the Forum, Bac's talk page, from Manticore, Wayne, myself and Jedi; I'm sure he'd be happy to e-mail you if you ask so. -- <font color="#000001">(talk) <font color="#000001">(contributions) 14:55, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

CUSFWN interview
It is time to end the procrastination on the latest CUSFWN, my friend. Let us start by setting up the ASWS and Cruentus interviews you had in mind. If you need help or suggestions, I'm here. Unit 8311 Talk!  20:25, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Alright; did you want to do the interview with Tom about Cruentus, or do you know enough about it already that it would seem odd if you were asking the questions?

Yeah. Since I interviewed Brandon already, would you want to do the ASWS interview? I'll do the interview with Tom. Drewton  ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:32, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Right. Just give a general criteria and I can come up with some questions. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  20:33, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * For Brandon, I'd recommend just asking about ASWS' current state, Vic's departure, reader reaction, future (plans for TCO and EP2 in particular), etc. For Wayne, just some general questions about the story, and the cuts he made to his story. Though it's entirely up to you. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 20:41, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Kay. For Rhea, here's what I came up with:
 * 1) What is the current state of the Saga, and how is progress?
 * 2) What caused Vic's deparature, and what is your reaction to it?
 * 3) What is the general reaction to the story so far? What has been the most negative and positive responses?
 * 4) And what is the future? When can we expect Episode 2 and TCO?

For CB:
 * 1) What was your main source of inspiration?
 * 2) What themes, if any, did you try and incorporate into the story?
 * 3) What changes and cuts did you make to it as you went along?
 * 4) What other contributions to the ASWS can we expect from you?

That's what I've got. You like it, I can post them straightaway. You don't, lemme hear some comments or suggestions. Unit 8311 Talk!  13:40, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Rhea's reply is here and CB's is on his talk page. I'll put them both on the SWF news bit, although I think we should make an interviews section. Now, could you prepare the Cruentus questions for me or tom, or whoever you have in mind, that'd be appreciated. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  19:09, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Nothing really anything in particular. I'd originally meant to document every canon and fanon work, chronologically, but that would've taken up a lot of time. I then started just using it for a list of Clone Wars battles as a guide so I wouldn't be contradicting anything canon in the series, though technically now that's impossible with TCW only being seven weeks into the war :P . I usually accept everything (even Dark Empire) as canon, but my excuse for not accepting TCW is that it itself doesn't respect three years of media.

 * I would restore it if the author could remove the image and add a disclaimer saying that the article is unrelated to the modder's vision of the ship. However, since the author is inactive, this can't be done. In addition, adding such a disclaimer would be untrue, since the author obviously knew of the original material from the image he uploaded. Also, an administrator adding the disclaimer wouldn't be alright since we can't claim to know what the author intended the article to be like. As a result, the article should remain deleted. The authors knows that the article isn't original. In addition, you should realize that it was one of the original modders that complained to us.

Apologizes and Pic/Sig Probs

 * Thanks for the concern about the sig picture. I just decided to delete the picture to shorten the sig. If the picture is deleted tomorrow, it's deleted. I made it myself, but there wasn't an option for that type of source as far as I could see.


 * Even though you weren't the one that really talked about the Jesus loves you! phrase, I still thought I'd explain how you got pulled into the mess. I tried not to make a point out of having the phrase, but when Michaeldsuarez made a comment about me removing it on my talk page, I thought I would try to talk to him about why it was on their in the first place. Though it seems like it, I don't think it got carried away. I've had about three users bombard me with questioning today, all responding to messages from Michaeldsuarez. Most didn't take my sig too harshly, and Michaeldsuarez was the one I was really trying to speak to. Sorry you've gotten drawn into it all. I don't hang out on this wiki anyway; I was contacted on the Artemis Fowl wiki and dragged across cyberspace to here. Chances are you won't ever hear or see me again, but I thought it best to apolgize for the trouble caused. Thanks :oD

Connecting articles?
Hey mate, hope all is well. I’m wondering if you may be able to help me out, basically I’m choosing to stretch out my original article (Alpha Saber) so I can do back stories for the characters that were involved with the original article. I know how to create a new article n all but I’m curios as to how I can create a link I guess you would call it within the original article. That probably sounds confusing, heck it sounds confusing to me… ill give you an example E.g. when reading the article alpha saber you come across the name of a character (Kentell Leknar) within the story – can you click on that particular name to then send you to that characters’ own article? I really hope that makes sense… thank you so much for your time, I pray you have a safe and enjoyable Christmas.Corron Zenith (Talk) 02:53, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

TFU
Hey, I just thought I'd let you know that my opinion of TFU (video game) has been slightly improved. I will admit the story itself isn't all too bad; what dissuaded me was the cutscenes and gameplay style of the Wii, the only system I had played it on. But recently I got a chance to play it on the Xbox (360), and everything is so much better. The gameplay isn't too much different (although reasonably easier), but the cutscenes hold so much more emotion and, of course, the Xbox is superior in graphics. The only thing that surprised me is that there is no multiplayer for any version save for the Wii; however, I'm sorta glad, sorta not, since I liked the idea of multiplayer but not the way it was done on the Wii. Anyway, either way, you were right, TFU isn't as bad as I initially thought. There are still some grudges I hold (no death in space?) and some farfetched stuff, but the game itself is pretty good. Random, I know, but I just thought I'd relay my improved opinion. --Victortalk 05:07, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, great. The Wii version isn't great...it's exactly the same as the PS2 version (a console which was released in 2000), except for duel mode, and, of course, the controls, though the same animations are used. The graphics range from being tolerable to terrible; unfortunately, they're terrible in most of the levels and all of the cutscenes. The only place where I thought the graphics were good was the Jedi Temple...probably because it was made only for Wii/PS2. The Wii version feels like an outdated game; on X360/PS3, it feels like an actual movie, during cutscenes at least. Should've released that instead of TCW...I'd been watching the Xbox360 cutscenes on YouTube while I was playing TFU, and there was a huge difference. Space shots don't look like cartoon-ish :P
 * How different are the level designs? From what I've seen, they're completely different. While the Wii version usually takes 6 hours to complete, I read a lot of people saying it took them 20 hours on Xbox/PS3. The lines were also made faster...the dark side ending is 20 seconds shorter on Wii. For Galen's "death", I read the novel, and it heavily implied that Galen did actually die, and was brought back through the Force by Vader six months later. I'm not sure I like the idea of Anakin/Vader knowing how to bring someone back from the dead, but it's much more realistic than otherwise. Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 16:07, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Right, with the easier controls, the Xbox game is far superior to the Wii; the graphics are a huge, huge plus and the voice acting fits much better. The levels are also quite different. I think the Wii version was made to work with the Wiimote, so maybe that's why. Just the first two levels are vastly different. For example, on the 'tutorial' level, it is not nighttime on Kashyyyk, there is no talking (like the stormtroopers reporting to Vader) and Vader kills Marek's father in his hut, where Marek approaches him and then an Imperial officer with three troopers order the kill, but without words, and then Vader slaughters them 'off-screen'. Anyway, but the levels are pretty long, but the funny thing is that they are not boring. On the Wii, I got bored fast for whatever reason, mostly because it was too repetitive (jumping on Tie wings gets boring). On the Xbox though, although it does get repetitive as well, I just love the graphics and the actions you can do. It's a great game really, other than the bones I have to pick with the story (as noted above). I haven't read the novel, but I agree, I don't like the idea of 'reviving' from the death type of thing. If I had to give a rating,, I'd say everything is a solid 8, minus the story. --Victortalk 21:50, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
