The last one was made in 2003 which was Jedi Academy. Best saber combat I've seen in a game to date, and the mods give it a lot of replayability including single player and multiplayer.

With Disney now running the show, I wonder if they will push to release one sometime in the near future.

For those who don't know what I'm referencing, the Jedi Knight series technically started with Star Wars: Dark Forces, but mainly kicked off with Dark Forces 2 since the protagonist becomes a Jedi in Dark Forces 2. Jedi Outcast came years later as a sequel, which was followed by Academy.
The games were FPS with the addition of saber combat and force powers. Full nerd here, but it allowed you to feel like a badass Jedi

Well here's hoping something is said soon. Something needs to top that disaster of a battlefront game that EA pooped out.

I thoroughly enjoyed the original two battlefronts, so another battlefront wouldn't bother me. Just don't want another EA shitfest, although it wouldn't surprise me.

That game wasn't bad, but the Jedi Knight is better series imo. The saber combat is unlike anything I've seen in another star wars game.

Loved that game too. Really fun combat. Alternate ending was awesome too.

Might try SWtOR again, the end game was not there when I played it at release. The story missions for each class were great but you had to follow the same path (same zones) for each one.

Jedi Outcast was the GOAT. One of my favorite games ever.

It really is fantastic. I think I prefer Jedi Academy's saber combat just due to the variety and what not, but Jedi Outcast has a better story imo. The fights with the shadow troopers were challenging for damn sure when they're first encountered. Easier later due to better force powers

I would kill for a Jedi game along the lines of the Batman Arkham games.

I'll never understand why people love to hate on battlefront. I don't think it was great but was still pretty good.

I don't so much think battlefront is bad as much as I think it's a bad battlefront game. Very much how I think Halo 4 isn't bad, but I think it's a bad Halo game.

I pray that Dice gives it up. The last one was pretty awful. Can get it for $10 now by the way.

What about it? It's been a while since we had battlefront before this so a lot has changed.

I was spoiled by BF2, particularly the space battles. What time I spent playing the recent BF didn't have anything close imo.

All they've announced so far is an action-adventure Star Wars coming out in 2018 and a 3rd person Star Wars to come out in the future so I guess we'll see out of those

Personally I'd rather KOTOR 3 than another Jedi Academy (I don't expect KOTOR 3 to happen thanks to The Old Republic)

Yep. Those and the awesome heroes vs villains team death matches with bots. It was perfect.

Outcast and Academy were incredible. The 1v1v1v1 PvP with Saber and Force Powers was awesome.
