The Clone Wars Video Games!

Posted By Mike on August 30, 2008

According to IGN and numerous other sites, the LEGO Indiana Jones game that is about to come out features an advertisement for The Clone Wars video game for the Nintendo Wii and the DS to come out in the fall of 2008. The ad also displays a website of www.CloneWarsGame.com that, at this point, just re-directs you over to starwars.com. Click here for the full article with a picture of the ad. More as we get it but yet another reason to be excited for Star Wars this year. Looks like the fall will be brining us more than one Star Wars related video game!


Thanks to everyone who sent over links of the big news


UPDATE: Our friend Jeff ("Obi-Wan's Lost Brother") points out that if you head to www.clonewarsgame.com, you're now taken to the LucasArts site with a picture of Anakin and Obi-Wan and the caption "Check back at the end of this month to find out more"

More info on this game as we get it!

Thanks Jeff!
