Lucasarts NEW Logo!!
You can find this logo on the new Battlefront II site
here personally ,, i think it sucks. It's like a kiddie company or something. This new logo just even lowers the company's place in the market. Man, LucasArts, you probably just start digging your grave like you were supposed to last year. --5abanja out P.S It'd be real nice if someone could actually post the logo since I don't know how to

Ug-leeee!
...Though probably no worse than the old logo, cave drawing-style. I remember hating it before I came to associate it with quality adventure games. Now it's too infused with nostalgia to evaluate dispassionately. . . . No, I think the new one is worse after all. The way those curves connect, so that the figure could be constructed from two arcs or two wavy lines. Bad. The blobby mess of a torso caused by too many lines and shapes interacting. Bad. The way the lines get so thin they fade into the background. Bad. The cheesy drop shadow. Bad. The way the arms, head and... err, parachute? seem to form a freaky eye of Sauron. Bad (though true of the old logo as well). The way the pose seems to invite us to kick the dude in the groin. Bad. I do like what they've done with "LucasArts," on the other hand. Modern and classy, yet reminiscent of the classic LucasFilm logo.

Me no likey. This logo doesn't seem like he'll be able to perform cool lightsaber tricks and shoot out lightining like the old one.

The old logo was a pretty detailed illustration type thing, so it's no surprise they'd eventually choose to simplify it. The new logo is not the best ever, but it's alright. I like the typography a lot and I guess I can get used to the new gold guy.
Now all they need is some games that aren't Star Wars and aren't utter shite, which realistically isn't going to happen. |

As long as it's animated to do something wicked in every game, I think the new gold guy will be fine.
Agree about typography. Nothing but awesome, really.

To echo everybody else, I don't like the new Gold Guy as much as the original, but am fine with the text logo underneath.
Although if LucasArts really did want a simpler logo design, I think they should've just reused this old idea:   That one may be less attractive, but at least it wouldn't remind us of all the classic adventure games bearing the mark of the Gold Guy.

I don't think that it's particularly bad or good. It may not draw out deep feelings of nostalgia, but it's also not a terrible image.

Yeah, that ain't a bad logo.
Just that the games that come with that logo most likely are going to be bad.
