A closer look at LucasArts' wretched hive of scum and villainy

We all love Star Wars, but the most ardent fan would have to admit the franchise hasn't been an unbroken string of flawless smash hits of late.

That's what LucasArts is hoping to change with Star Wars 1313, which they're describing as the first ever mature-themed Star Wars game. 1313 is going to move away from magic space wizards the Jedis, with all their mood swings and cheekbones, to focus on bounty hunting in Coruscant's criminal underworld.

We've been impressed by what we've seen so far, so check out this preview to find out why you should be cautiously optimistic about a new Star Wars project, despite how that usually turns out.
