I can't wait to see what they produce, it might even be better than Lucas Arts. They might actually listen to the fans and make BF III, or just start a new 1st person shooter like BF but call it something new. They may even make a new X-wing style game. But I won't get my hopes too high,  :-\

Some businesses these days don't seem to be too interested in listening to the customers, but then again I'm still bitter from LucasArts and SOE shutting down Star Wars Galaxies. Of course I'd be thrilled if they made something good, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I think we could stand to have another game like Dark Forces II and the rest of the Jedi Knight series, with updated graphics and game mechanics. Those are still some of my favorite games.
