9. Bounty Hunter
Our number 1 Star Wars game of all time, Bounty Hunter was one of the few lucky sixth-gen titles to get a remaster as an accompaniment to the Vader PS4 bundle that dropped in November. Considering how well it holds up today, some sort of sequel or spiritual successor would be a fantastic idea for EA to look towards. 1313 already appeared to be picking up where Bounty Hunter left off (sort of), with its narrative focus being drawn solely to Boba Fett's early career as a gun for hire. It looked magnificent, and whilst it may be a tad disingenuous to suggest that it was a natural successor to Bounty Hunter in that its premise and mechanics differed so much to its predecessor, the theme of the original title is very much malleable to the designs EA may have on the saga's video-game presence. Whether it be Jango or Boba or even an entirely new character altogether, this franchise certainly retains a whole bunch of untapped potential.
Content Producer/Presenter
Ewan Paterson
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
