Star Wars the Old Republic MMO
Anyone excited about swtor? I am personally planning on buying a new computer just for this game. I am new to MMORPGs and I am ready to jump in feet first.
Has the cinematic trailers tickled anyone else's fancy? Here's a good one if u haven't seen it.

I plan to play it. Possibly not at release, we'll see. I'd need to get Windows 7 first, and if I can score a cheap military copy of that, I'll probably get the game (otherwise the price of the game goes up from $60 to $260, lol).
I'm a WoW guy, and I like MMORGs. I actually played the old Star Wars Galaxies when it first came out, then switched to WoW when that came out.
I would love to play but I'm a console guy and picked a iPad over a new computer so will have to settle for elder scrolls skyrim.I know someone that played the beta and couldn't say enough good things about it.
Already pre-ordered and have a Sith side guild set up and all that. Be happy to have any of you guys join up. And yeah, the name is pretty stupid, but the leader vetoed me. What ya gonna do?

I still can't get past playing a video game as the bad guy. Guess to lawyers the Sith may still be on the good side

Leader's LAPD (and an old friend of mine), so draw your own conclusions from that.
From what I understand, the main storyline is largely based around choices you make that gain you "light side" or "dark side" points. Apparently you can be just as evil as a Jedi as you can playing dark side. Only big differences I've seen are that dark side gets better looking armor and ships.

Since it seems like a lot of us will be playing, maybe we should have a BOTL guild! We can at least roll alts for something like that. I'm thinking that sounds like a Light Side guild, but let me know what you guys think!
Well I was gonna play this but now that I know its owned by a Canadian company I may have to reconsider...Hope the world never gets so PC that we need to stop the lawyer jokes.

Agreed.Hope the world never gets so PC that we need to stop the lawyer jokes.
Agreed.
Funny you should mention that, as I'm in Austin, and spend about half of my week sharing a parking lot with their studio here. Some truly strange looking people coming in and out of that building.

I am not sure I will be picking this up. I am in the beta and I enjoy it but it is so very similar to WoW which is just so polished at this point. I too played Galaxies but have been playing WoW since day 1 launch it would be tough for me to give it up plus I just did the 12 month commitment thing with WoW to get my free copy of Diablo III. I love the Star Wars universe and BioWare makes great games so at the end of the day I have a bad feeling I will be playing 2 MMO's at once LOL.
