I have been a Lego fan since I was a little girl. My kids are now also Lego fans and my boys, as well as my 3 year old daughter, love Star Wars Legos. Too bad we couldnt have all been at the New York Toy Fair on Sunday because those who were there told us all about the awesome Star Wars and SWTOR themed Lego sets that were presented.
EA and Star Wars The Old Republics Bioware Team have just announced the release date for the Oceanic region servers.

DSOGaming writes: "BioWare and Electronic Arts have released the latest update for their Star Wars MMORPG, Star Wars: The Old Republic. With this latest version of SWTOR, players are no longer occasionally disconnected from the game when interacting with a mailbox, while mouse click functionality has been improved.

There have been several accusations of bias on the part of BioWare in SWTOR. Some were said in jest but others seem to have some real backing to them.

TheBottomTicker writes, "One of the biggest critiques of BioWares Star Wars The Old Republic MMORPG is the game lacks a true endgame. Sure, theres PVP and Flashpoint/Operation raids. But whereas most MMORPGs feel like they just get started at max level, it is said that SWTOR feels like it drops off. Chalk it up to a really entertaining story during the leveling phase, or the unbalanced PvP, or whatever you want, but for some reason, SWTORs endgame just cant live up to the same enjoyment as leveling."
