Honestly I dont know, with presidents these days being almost total figure-heads so to speak, hopefully he is pretty distant from the sorts of decisions effecting that. I personally havent played a SW game since rogue squadron on N64

This will probably have zero effect on anything we, as gamers, consume.

Almost went to work for Lucas.. until all the people that i knew that worked there were let go - seems like they have a tendency to fire most everybody after a project is finished.. then re-hire a new team for the next project.

Maybe new management will improve the lives of those that work there?
