What happened to Factor 5?

You know they became famous with their Rouge Squadron games on the 64. Then they went on to make 2 great Rouge Squadron sequels for the GCN and both were excellent flying games. Even though the 2nd one had bad on-foot missions, the flying and vechile combat was great.

With Lair they somehow lost it? So what really happened? Did Factor 5 get their ego too big and dismiss Nintendo as a weak system that cant sell their games that they had to go to Sony?

Anyways as bad as Lair might be, I still have Factor 5's Star Wars masterpieces.

Another proof the industry is going down the drain. All 3 companies are responsible. Instead of going next-gen so early. They should have developed for Xbox, GC, PS2 for at least 3 more years before moving on, so that way we all could get nice graphics for a cheaper price.

This gen sucks.

in hindsight, they should of just made a multiplat star wars game

Thats no excuse to make crap especially when you know those poor chapsyou are marketing it to paid 500+ dollars for a gaming system.

Last gen Igot a 150 dollar GC andboth Rouge Squadron games. Bothwere excellent for such a cheap price. Makes no sense that I got 2 Great games for cheap while the people paying loads of cash get a crap game from the same exact developers.

Factor 5, Just goback to making Star Wars flying sims.

maybe they realized part way through that the game would suck and so they rushed the development to get it over with and minimize the damage. Result is an even worse gameGunSmith1_basic

yeah or maybe they just dont like the fantasy gener in general but were in to deep to stop.

No square went bankrupt and had to merge with their fierce rivals. That isn't exactly stellar work.
