I actually like better the first Jedi Guardian Armor than the last... that armor is just gay... I just hope that I can toogle my /hood whenever I want >_>

no you can't.
a jedi can't live without his hood

Precisely... I want to have my hood on, pretty much all the time... On the video the Jedi Guardian dont have his hood... only the second armor of the Jedi Sentinel has it on :S

Just try imagining Qui-Gon with giant shoulder armor.

There is a big difference between a game and what we know from the movies. What I mean by that is since they are making a game odd things such as armor types a jedi would never wear, weapons certain classes are restricted too and a lot of different stipulations are always going to be in a game.

I currently still play wow and actualy raid pretty seriously, copying something so successful isn't so bad is it?

I mean, you want reward for your actions, and though Jedi typically wear their robes and trust in the force... having some slick armor is kinda nice.

And besides, this is much older and more eloquent than the newer versions of the Jedi, so perhaps a little pomp isn't so bad a thing. Obi Wan throws on armor, and does so pretty well.

The biggest thing to remember, this is a time period where there are a TON of Jedi, and they are at war. So who's to say they don't break out the tanker-gear when they're expecting to walk out into a serious battlefield?

I agree the shoulderpads for the Guardian are just a bit over the top (we could make them sawblades and he could be a Mad Max extra), but I think the armor design in general is pretty solid. That, and I think the whole look and feel of the Sentinel is wicked. With the hood up, he reminds me of a sort of Jedi hitman. No nonsense, go get em'. And if he happens to look good while doing it? I'm down with that.
