Star Wars: Battlefront - Death Star (Gameplay Trailer)

The third digital download for EA's Star Wars: Battlefront will allow players to explore, inside and out, one of the greatest locations in the franchise, the Death Star.

Not only will fans get to explore the Death Star but they'll be able to do it with some new characters as well; the fearsome bounty hunter Bossk and Han Solo's partner in crime, Chewbacca.

The trailer looks amazing and we can't wait to play around and in the Death Star later this September.

Must confess though, we, like many of you, were hoping to see the Millennium Falcon come to Luke's rescue too.

Book Review - Star Wars: Death Troopers


Finished reading the new Star Wars novel "Death Troopers" by Joe Schreiber and absolutely enjoyed it.

Death Troopers is the first Star Wars novel to cross over into the Horror genre, and provided a more adult theme. Joe Schreiber paints a very desolate scene aboard the prison barge Purge and creates an unforgettable cast of humans, creatures, and the living dead.

The story also contains two of the saga's greatest icons. We won't ruin the surprise by telling you who, but if you've seen screen shots for the upcoming Death Troopers expansion pack for the Star Wars Galaxies game, then you pretty much know already.

Inside Book Flap

When the Imperial prison barge Purge - temporary home to five hundred of the galaxy's most ruthless killers, rebels, scoundrels, and thieves - breaks down in a distant, uninhabited part of space, its only hope appears to lie with a Star Destroyer found drifting, derelict, and seemingly abandoned. But when a boarding party from the Purge is sent to scavenge for parts, only half of them come back - bringing with them a horrific disease so lethal that within hours nearly all aboard the Purge die in ways too hideous to imagine.
And death is only the beginning.

The Purge's half-dozen survivors - two teenage brothers, a sadistic captain of the guards, a couple of rouge smugglers, and the chief medical officer, the lone woman on board - will do whatever it takes to stay alive. But nothing can prepare them for what lies waiting aboard the Star Destroy amid its vast creaking emptiness that isn't really empty at all. For the dead are rising: soulless, unstoppable, and unspeakably hungry.

Choose Your Weapon

The Science Fiction genre has offered us some of the greatest weaponry known to man and alien; everything from phasers to lightsabers, rail-guns to Death Stars.

But the time is now to choose your favorite. Any weapon of your choice; be it from a movie, TV show, anime, or video game, the choice is now yours.

Our Winner:




LANCER


Gears of War

Not only does this weapon offer us that big bad@$$ gun feel, but it’s got a chainsaw on the front of it that opens up a whole new gory world. Plain old melee attacks will just never be the same.
