This one was a Part 2 of chapter 8 and was a bit over the top. durge reminds me of the Blood God in Blade. There was some cool Clonetrooper action, the Red ARC shoots a eletrical whip from his gauntlet in a Boba moment but I couldn't tell if he saves OW or OW saves himself. I think this one could have been better. Still 1 style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/saber.gif up.

I liked it but Durge seemed like something out of Teen Titans.

Reminded me of Akira for some reason, but there were some very cool moments. Particularly, I loved OB's leap from the speeder bike, and when he threw his LS at that Destroyer.

I have mixed opinions over this one, didn't like all the durge gross thing and Ob being sucked inside of him, liked some of the action though, one thing I didn't like was OB deflecting the laser shots with his hand, if he can do that then he might as well get rid of the saber, if Jedi can do that then why did they died in the geonosis arena by the same kind of lasers?? they should have made him deflect the lasers with his saber, this might be just nitpicking but it did seem like too much, the only other Jedi/Sith we have seen doing something similar is Vader and he had a mechanic hand and stopped the lasers with it, didn't deflect them, but again it's just nitpicking, anyway is just a cartoon after all and I did enjoy it.

I'm not sure about this one. I mean, the fight between Durge and Obi-Wan was dragged on a little too much. The chapter had no real point to it. And Obi-Wan's powers are getting a little too over the top. I mean, I love how he's very able in battle, but it's getting to the point where nothing can touch him.

Well it seems that way with everyone in Star Wars, has since the beginning (Han, Leia, and Chewie standing ten feet away from 30 some-odd stormtroopers and none of them hitting him). And I don't think Obi-Wan's powers are too much, if Dooku can cause buildings to crumble and shoot lightning from his fingertips, and Yoda can play catch with Force lightning than Obi-Wan should be seen as powerful too, and his jump seemed to be grealy aided by the speed of his swoop bike.
However I do have a problem with Durge, reattaching his arms and whatnot, he seems to be way too over the top. I could understnad if he was mostly droid and they just attached a new arm, but I'm not fond of his regenerative powers. Too much like the T-1000.

Durge is like carnage, T-1000, Jason all in one. I would have perfered a more human lilke Calo Nord from KOTOR. A Bounty Hunter who relies on cunning and street smarts instead of brute froce and super human powers. Durge is a better monster.

Yeah like wtf?
In the comics it's explained that Durge was really seriously tortured and wounded and had to stay in hybernation recooperating for like 2000 years, but in this thing he heals instantly so it totally defeats the purpose of that 2000 year sleep. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif
Oh well, he's kinda of a neat character, he's an interesting person for the Jedi to fight with, I liked him better when he was silent and he choked the guy and took his speeder bike out for a ride with a joust.

I do like that they show how powerful OB1 is becoming during the Clone wars. They'll probably do the same thing with Anakin.
I also love how the Clone Troopers are battling.

Little bit of an MIB ripoff there.

The clones are the major + in the story. I am a 100% clone fan.
