Title: Thornado
Post by: Bill Aurion on August 16, 2003, 06:47:28 AM
Anyone remember this Factor 5 title?  It was supposedly canned, but it may be making a comeback!  Check here: Link  Click on the triangle below the Star Wars logo.  You will come to a page with the main character for Thornado.  Highlight the pic and it will say "coming soon."  Hopefully this means the game is still in development and not just a lack of(a super lack of!) updating on Factor 5's part.

What's so special about Thornado? I'v seen lots of expectancy from this game but I can't still understand why.

This is the third time Factor 5's reserrected this project! Of course, we still have a while to wait for it, since they have RS3 and the new Pilotwings in the works...

i think that link on their web site has been there for quite a long time- i think they just never got rid of the thornado thing
maybe that means that the game has not been totally cancelled- but i dont think they will start work on it untill they are done with their other projects, if ever

I'm fairly certain it was canned. I rmeember Julian Eggerbrecht (sp?) mentioning so in an interview with him about Rebel Strike. He said one level of Rebel Strike utilizes the bridge we all saw from the demo of Thornado, and that's basically all that remains of it.

I gave up on this game long ago.  Calmly awaiting the new Pilot Wings and RS3.
