You say that, but do you really want to see your memories of an awesome game be perverted by a microtransaction ridden, pay-per-boost wreck of a game, with purchasable pods and racers?

Let the Past Die, Kill It If You Have To.

Honestly, yes. Redout 2 proved that a game in that genre can exist with a game + dlc model.

The thing is that EA owns Star wars ip for games

That ends this year. Ubisoft is currently working on a Star Wars game. It's probably not good news either way honestly.

but EA also stopped being all about Microtransactions in their recent SW games. Jedi Fallen Order had none and i'm sure Survivor will also have none. Not to mention they removed the entire lootbox system from SWBF2 so its a great and fun game!

Yeah but those are single player gamers. The original racing game was also single player/split screen but if they would make a remake it would probably have multiplayer added. Like what activision did with Crash team racing

I was looking for the comment "EA has entered the chat". Good to see this instead.

Or just buy the steam version and relive your childhood, lol.

I’m guessing the kinds of people who say “I’d spend SO much money on X game!” Are the type of people who enjoy spending money on microtransactions.

I’d spend like $20 on buying a new pod racing game, but i have no desire to spend thousands of $ pimping my pod with gold drip lol. But some people like that kinda thing. But I don’t think anyone likes p2w lol, at least I haven’t seen anyone say that ever.
