Retro Blast@retroblastpod.com · 2mo agoThanks for 37K I made this for y'all 🤌
Quick 2005 LucasArts marketing department memory for your #StarWarsDay: The Ep3 game was scheduled for May 5. In a meeting, someone joked, “Move it up—May the FOURTH be with you!” We laughed, shrugged, kept May 5. After all, who would take a pun like that seriously marketing message? Heh.
As I understand it, this is based on page hits, so some recency bias is to be expected. But even with that in mind…who’s looking up stuff on Commander these days? (It sunset in 2020!)

This last one might be my favorite—it’s both subtle and respectful to both gaming and Star Wars, indirectly referencing The Force Unleashed. Thanks, Boyhood. youtu.be/DUCsYpqIQqo?...

Kayla Cromer Official@kaylacromer.bsky.social · 5mo agoTell me a random fact about yourself that sounds fake but is 100% true.
🕹️ Happy 33rd anniversary to Star Wars: X-Wing! 🕹️ X-Wing was one of the first games to feature 3D polygon graphics for spaceships and the first non-adventure game to use the iMUSE music system. 💾 X-Wing was originally released on floppy disks in February 1993! 💾

Still pinching ourselves. Two of our founders at The Game Awards, celebrating the announcement of STAR WARS: Galactic Racer ™.
I love that Ando Prime is featured in the Galactic Racer trailer -- a callback to the original Racer. It was also seen in hologram form in Episode II. youtu.be/z1r9IzVBE9A?...

IGN@ign.com · 8mo agoGalactic Racer is a runs-based racing game set in the lawless Outer Rim region of the Star Wars universe. Watch #TheGameAwards trailer:
A fun fact about this guy in Force Unleashed 2 is that originally he was named “the Orlock” after Nosferatu, but after we had already recorded and animated, somebody in legal decided that we might get sued by the Murnau estate.
