Hello everyone! Instead of busting down your windows and screeching into your ears about Installation 01, or Project Contingency, or some other Halo fan project, I have decided to annoy you all with something different.
"Just tell me what this is, and stop screaming you annoying ape!" You shout at me, well if you're a Star Wars fan, you might care. If you played the original version, you might be jumping up and down in joy, screaming like a 6 year old getting a little puppy. As the title suggests, yes, a group of people have decided to take it upon themselves to remaster the greatest Star Wars shooter of all time
Star Wars Republic Commando Remastered, is a thing.
The game is being remastered in Unreal Engine 4, I have provided a Twitter link which has a few screenshots of progress, despite being simple screenshots and no legitimate gameplay (unlike Installation 01 and Project Contingency) you have to admit, the things look pretty beautiful.
[b]However, don't get your jimmies soaked wet yet. There is a huge possibility that this could be shut down as it is using assets from the original Republic Commando game (most likely, not 100% sure, but most likely), though after a bit of talking with the twitter account, they said that they're looking into tying in the remaster with the original Republic Commando install. [/b]
I hope EA/Disney/LucasArts/Whoever doesn't shut this down, Republic Commando has needed some much needed attention. I know a lot of people who love the game, and a lot of those people want a sequel (as do I) and I would totally love a remaster. What are your thoughts on this? Are you excited? Cause I certainly am.
EDIT:Forgot to mention, they're not just remastering the campaign, but also the multiplayer.

Hopefully it doesn't get shut down, but I doubt that.
