And not one of the games you listed could be made as an MMO. You are correct, they tried adding this single Jedi class into a game filled with non-force users. The idea is to have a game based around and focused on force users. Jedi Sentinels, Guardians, Consulars, Weapon Masters, Watchmen, Masters; Sith Sentinels, Guardians, Consulars, Marauders, Assassins, Lords... Jedi civil war, Jedi vs Sith, hell, you can even throw the Mandalorians in there. This is where the Star Wars MMO money is. 10 million people don't play WoW to play a castle guard, or a foot soldier. People don't want to play grunts. These KotOR classes fit very neatly into the fantasy archetypes that almost all of the MMOs use.

I'm pretty sure somewhere there is a quote from Bioware saying that are indeed working on a Star Wars game, but no details were given beyond that. As far as SWG goes, people want to play Jedi. That's a fact. This is a serious problem when based in the saga timeline. You aren't going to get millions of users and seriously compete if you are forcing players into playing storm troopers, rebels, and bounty hunters.

LucasArts says: "Yes, we are working with BioWare. We've announced that we're working with the developer on a project, but it has nothing to do with Knights of the Old Republic."

I'm hearing all sorts of wonderful things about Windows Server 2008...

Going by Hindu mythology, Varja seems to be a weapon of the gods.

Totally underwhelming. It certainly looks like Lucas was able to work in all that *great* dialog he couldn't cram into Attack of the Clones into this movie. I wonder if there will be any stepping in poo scenes? Maybe Cate Blanchett will let one rip during a particularly tense scene, and her little soviet minions will have to stifle their giggles. Wow, man, that trailer just destroyed the excitement I had about this thing.

A new Star Wars MMO stuck in the saga timeline would be a disaster. When you lock yourself into a period of time that already set in stone, you really lose alot of freedom with what you can do in the game. They paid the price with Galaxies and the Jedi mess, I don't see them trying for it again. And speaking of Mass Effect, just announced that its coming to PC in May. Yet another reason why I can put off buying a new console system.

KotOR had one planet removed from it during development, and its pretty seamless. TSL was a rushed, buggy mess, and was missing a ton of content that actually still exists in the game code (which is so close to being restored by TSLRP Gizka team). The two should not be lumped in together.

Beam cannon... Mmmmmmm

Why does Vajra sound familiar?

TheForce.net is reporting unconfirmed rumors that the KotOR game Bioware is developing is NOT an MMO, and that a Star Wars MMO is being developed by another company. I think its safe to say there is some sort of KotOR game being developed. I wish we could get something official on this stuff, one way or another. Even if it were just "We are working on a Star Wars title."

I've been trying to convert this release for 3 or 4 days to DVD, and failing miserably.

Before the dark times... before the retcon.

No no, as a Comcast customer, I can assure you they are doing no such thing. I'm way over simplifying it, but basically they are cutting into p2p speeds when they can identify it. Simple encryption beats this, though.

Fixed. AT&T bent over to them, Verizon told them to get bent.

Its not as if DX10 has shown to be any great shakes performance wise.

"WHAT DOES SNN MEAN!?!" Oh, sorry, Macross II flashback...

For me, Vista vs XP comes down to speed. My current build is probably 6 months old, and there is no contest between the two. The Windows ME to Windows 98 comparison might not be all that far off the mark. Then again, XP wasn't any hot shakes when it hit the market, either, and I don't think I switched over from Win 2000 until sometime around SP2. As far as the Lian Li goes, I have two myself, but I should note that the one I linked was in the same price range of the others that were being posted in the thread. I wasn't going to post up a $200 case.

No no, they were talking about the reaction missiles.

Because, ya know, space aliens should all look like humans with pointy ears. And the only insects, ANYWHERE, are on earth. And, uh, insect aliens were totally original in ST and Gunbuster!

TOO SOON!

So, I still haven't seen Razor. I don't expect Sci-Fi will re-run it anytime soon, and I refuse to rent. I gotta say, I feel totally out of the loop witht he show now, and my interest certainly has waned a little.

The Manga subs aren't that great. I wouldn't mind replacing them, either.

The toy looks cool, which means its a piece of crap that you will NEVER get to look like they do in the mock ups.
