    Yeah, this probably will be better than WoW... probably.

  • AHolyMonk - July 7, 2009 6:05 p.m.

    Wow. This looks amazing. For once, a game good enough that im willing to pay subscription fees! Screw you WoW!

  • Japanjack - July 7, 2009 5:47 p.m.

    This sent shivers down my spine. This is going to be amazing.

    The Old Republic is a credible World of Warcraft killer. Going to be the first MMO I am willing to pay to play. This is going to be huge and glorious. I cannot wait....this should easily kill WoW and win game of the year.(And that is not an easy feat with the MASSIVE number of great games coming out.)

    WoW needs to be dethroned. WotLK is terrible. It's the same quests in every region. The only difference between gear is a quick palette swap

    This'll be my next big investment. Game + new parts to play it on full!

    Why would they do this to me? I start college this fall and now this of all games has to come out. Does anybody realize how hard it will be to balance a social life, college courses, and a game like this. DAMN YOU BIOWARE!!! Haha but I really am looking forward to this and if the story is half as good as kotor it will be the greatest MMO ever. Fuck WOW. Oh and games radar why is my secret word so damn long :laborintensive outages? ROFL

    I don't care for MMO's, but I'm definitely giving this one a shot.

  • smallberry - July 7, 2009 2:27 a.m.

    Only Bioware could get me interested in an MMO. That too a Star Wars one.

    darthpat, give him a break. im sure he was just giddy when he wrote this. i was giddy after reading it, so i cant blame him. oh, and i wholeheartedly agree doctalen.

  • darthpat - July 7, 2009 1:24 a.m.

    sorry but i have to. They aren't really star destroyers when this is set thousands of years before the term was coined. They are merely the same general design (im assuming) of the star destroyers and republic cruisers from the the clone wars, and i think by rebels he means republic and imperial he means sith

  • kusanagi - July 7, 2009 12:47 a.m.

    Caaaaaan't waaaaaait for this gaaaaaame!!!!! I think I'm gonna actually going to build a new desktop for this game lol. Its probably gonna be like 20+ GB install I'm guessing late 2010?

    I REALLY hope the world is open and explorable and if I was to run through Tython/Korriban I will see other players besides myself and hope the game is alive, not only with NPC's but also other players.

  • Orionthefirst - July 7, 2009 12:14 a.m.

    I absolutly CANNOT wait for this...

  • w40kfanatic - July 6, 2009 11:46 p.m.

    wow this game is going to be epic. i really believe that if bioware does everything right here, they could make a game that will be remembered for decades. my laptop wont run it and ive been looking for an excuse to buy a new laptop. this is the perfect excuse. cant wait for it to come out.

  • Doctalen - July 6, 2009 11:19 p.m.

    If there is a god in this world, this game will be mac compatible or a truck of PCs with video cards and everything needed to play this pulls up next to my house.

  • Silvermech - July 6, 2009 10:46 p.m.

    I want to play this, nut my laptop wont be able to handle it. Yet another game passes me by.

    Back in your stable, Buttercup.

  • DeadGirls - July 6, 2009 10:01 p.m.

    I want to see gameplay videos. I'm not interested at all if it's just a bunch of floating hitboxes and hotkeys, like WoW.
