Firespray-class. One of a kind?

[trolls' bane]

I have wondered this for a while. In the video game, Star Wars: Bounty Hunter , Jango Fett mentions that the Firespray-class vessel he stole from the prison(later becoming known as the Slave-1 ) Ovo IV (later becoming known as the Slave-1 ), is "the last of her kind." However, in other places I've heard (or, most likley, read) that a Firespray is not a one of a kind, however uncommon they may be.

Fine. I'll just look this up for myself:p.

I think there's a difference between one-of-a-kind and last-of-a-kind.

And video games usually aren't considered cannon anyway. Does this particular game have the Infinities logo on it?

I can't seem to find the explanation for it though. I had thought it was for books, games, and comics, but from what I can find it looks like it might not be on any games.

It just means that the stuff in it could have "happened", but that doesn't mean that it actually did "happen".

I don't SEE anything like that, but it does not mean it is not there

That's a good point.

I've been following the "Infinities" issue since its inception, so let me offer a clarification.

All Expanded Universe material is speculative, and strictly speaking, none of it "happened" insofar as anything that determines events and occurrences in the Star Wars films themselves. Thus, only the films are "canon".

Infinities is a label reserved for those titles which explicitly, intentionally contradict either Star Wars canon (as in the case of the "what if the Death Star wasn't destroyed" comics) or the EU continuity itself. It's the equivalent of what DC Comics calls "Elseworlds" - it's out of the official continuity. But it should be made very clear that the EU official continuity is not canonical.

The video games are generally considered to be second-tier material in the EU continuity, alongside the collectible card games and other spinoff merchandise. When they are similar to "Infinities" in the sense that they contradict what happens in the films (i.e. you blowing up the Death Star despite not playing Luke Skywalker) it's usually obvious enough that it need not be stated.

ummm... sure.
