I'm no lawyer but I'm pretty sure you will get sued.

I'm going to play it safe and say my only fear is the legality of the whole ordeal.

I think I saw that it was only for PC. I don't know a lot about videogame programming, so does anyone know if it would be hard to port a PC game to a console? Sorry if that's a stupid question, but again, I don't know a lot about videogame programming.

You'd have to buy a VERY expensive dev kit, and only if Sony or Microsoft deemed you worthy. You could use XNA for 360, but they're using Unreal, so I don't think that's possible.

Ok. Well, that sucks for me, because I'm a console owner. Thanks for the info though

This game is essentially just a project for people to learn about game development. Most forum members at gwtor.com are blowing it out of proportion. It's not going to be sold and it'll just be a very simple game based off the same style as the Battlefront games. There are similar mods/games attempted for related games, there will no be no legal issues unless they try to monetize it for some dumb reason which I will not endorse.
