Foppe 05/14/19 5:07:14 PM #18:	The Episodes originates from when Lucas wrote the drafts for The Empire Strikes Back. He originally intended to call it Episode 2. He disliked the draft he got, so he started to write a draft with Darth Vader as Lukes father as a joke, just to think out of the box and get some ideas to the real draft. He started to like the idea, and started to write up the backstory. After a while, he discovered that it was enough to create a trilogy before the trilogy he was working on, and simply called TESB for Episode V. The movies were not named with the Episodes until the 90s, but they were named with their Episode numbers at the intro title with the start of TESB. All home releases after TESB had the Episode number included, and it was added to A New Hope when it was rereleased in theatres in the early 80s. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site.
