Publisher LucasArts today announced that it will bring a version of its upcoming next-generation title Star Wars Bounty Hunter to GameCube this fall. The game, which is based on events from the Episode I and II feature films of the same universe, will also see a release on Sony's PlayStation 2 console.
In Bounty Hunter, players are pitted as the feared mercenary Jango Fett, the father of the legendary Boba Fett, and are made to travel through his seedy world, interact with thieves and assassins, and more. Fett is on a quest to capture the leader of an evil cult and will stop at nothing to retrieve his bounty, even if it means competing against a brutal rival for the prize.
The title, a third-person action adventure, puts emphasis on intense combat across six, vastly different worlds and 18 levels. Fett does battle with the scum of the galaxy, including crime lords, corrupt politicians, enemies of various species, and of course a competitor from his own mysterious, clone-connected past. - IGN.com

Well, that's pretty typical for computer graphics.
I'd rather you were able to create your own Bounty Hunter, actually. This is looking more like a gun-heavy version of Obi-Wan rather than anything else.
Roll on KOTOR...

I totally agree with this. Super Smash Bros. Melee doesn't work either. Sometimes I just need to shoot someone, and hear their scream of pain, and their pitiful moaning... uh... (Giggles nervously)... excuse me...

I wonder...will BH be like a 007 game?
You probably get to use Jango Fett's dual pistols, kyberdarts, flamethrower, grappling hook, rocket launcher, etc. Sounds like fun.
depends. sw-games can't help you decide, as SW: Bounty Hunter is on PS2 and Gamecube, SW: Clone Wars is also on PS2 and Gamecube, while JEdi Outcast is on (PC), Xbox and Gamecube. generally though, I'd say go for the Gamecube or PS2.
