We all know that over the years there have been many, many Star Wars games, with only a small percentage of them ever being worth a damn, well last weekend at the "Force Unleashed" event in london, Lucasarts announced that it would be making "less and better" games
Want to be one of the first to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull ?
Well then, Cineworld in Boldon, Tyne and Wear is the place to be, at 12:35 am to be exact. Late Wednesday/Very Early Thursday morning May 22nd.
I'll be there, hard at work, wearing my Indy Fedora and listening the Soundtrack. I am supposed to finish work at 1:00 am but I WILL finish slightly earlier just so I can catch the movie...I would not and could not miss it!
By the way, as this is a Star Wars site, if you go to Cineworld Boldon for the late show, come say 'HI' and also mention you read this on GEN and I'll give you a free Star Wars Lenticular Bookmark (while supply lasts).
I'll be the one wearing the Indy fedora hat and Cineworld fleece jacket. Hope to see you there.
