If you want an awesome Jedi game, wait until Force Unleashed comes out. I stumbled over it earlier this year and I was pretty impressed by what I saw. I can't wait till spring 2008.
Also, I'd hate to see Jedi introduced into FS. I find Star Wars games that you can play as the average trooper absolutely awesome (see Republic Commando) because Jedi have been done to death by Lucas Arts, that's how they make their money. However, I do enjoy games where you can play as a Jedi (see KoToR 1&2). As long as the game setting is right for Jedi they can be great, but FS is not the right setting for Jedi, they defy the point of the game. The point is teamwork, which Jedi aren't suited to. Jedi are suited to sorting out border disputes in the Outer Rim and hacking their way through legions of battle droids. Jedi are too powerful. To get a good idea of how powerful Jedi are watch the Clone Wars cartoons, they just about illustrate how powerful they are.
FS is, and always should be, about the battles of average troopers. It's a refreshing look at the Star Wars story line, which is what will get people interested. Being able to play something new is far better than having to play a same-old hack-n'-slash Jedi game.
P.M.
I can only express puzzlement that borders on alarm.
