So the rumor is that the implication in Choices of One is that Thrawn is ultimately responsible for the Battle of Hoth, wut?
He isn't. He finds out that the Rebels stole certain materials. Vader looks at the list and realizes that these materials were needed for cold uninhabiteded worlds. Thrawn agrees.
That's it. It was a little unnesseray and I prefer the idea of sending out probes everywhere but whatever.

It's much better if the infinite universe of SW shrinks more and more as all the main characters become involved in everything.
Nothing quite like murdering every single Harvester gangster in a parking garage and then sauntering out the front door and getting wasted by the ten guys chilling in the front that you didn't know were there because you crept in through the back while randomly exploring and didn't even realize it was harvester base in the first place.
Reload 100+ so I can continue to be "Told a Story." Invisible War was easier on the most difficult settings. I mean shit, it's been awhile that gameplay has rendered me unable to speak because I wanted to smash my controller to little bits and pieces. The last time that happened was in the Mass Effect DLC on that stupid asteroid. Random gangsters cause me more trouble than the dumb bosses, which I've managed to kill without issue. I wouldn't have minded this BS if the game had let me run away by going back through the door I came from once I realized I was surrounded by gangsters . . . but noooo no area transition for you while in combat.

Black Ops was probably one of the most enjoyable games I've ever played because of the graphics and the realism of the levels (particularly the Vietnam levels). Add the fact that its storyline was the Cold War and yes, you have to put the storyline up there. Wolfenstein was just damn enjoyable. Don't talk to me about the Mafia games my friend because I lived and breathed the first Mafia game which was downright godlike, I can't believe I forgot to mention it in the greatest ever category. It had everything a mafia buff could want, while the second one was pretty shallow in storylines and attempted to overcompensate in the form of graphics. Bioshock was good but I didn't enjoy it that much. I also forgot to mention the half life games which were definitely among the greatest in any category.
Wait, are you claiming that COD: Black Ops and Wolfenstein have "great stories"? Compared to what exactly?Have you played VtM: Bloodlines, Bioshock or Mafia II? Hell, I'd argue Max Payne has better storylines than either of those.

Games like ME3. I'm not a super-duper fan of the fantasy/medieval setting. I like RPGs and I like action games, so those that combine such elements appeal to me. [/B]
There are some kickass fantasy RPGs out there that are definitely worth playing: The "Witcher" games kick ass, so did the first Dragon Age (while the second is still entertaining).
That aside: Fantasy doesn't appeal to you? Wonder, how you ever managed to find the idea of Jedi and Sith entertaining then, given that they are - essentially - magicians aimed with melee weapons. 😉
