Revan Novel Review
I had completely forgotten that Drew Karpyshyn’s novel was due out and, for whatever reason, I decided to go to his site on Tuesday, November 15th. And quickly, I realized that the book had just come out on sale.
The force works in very mysterious ways since I was drawn to look at Drew’s site the day his book was released.
Despite that, I...more
Eternity Vault Video – GamesCom 2011
Another day, another conference for those that get uber excited about Star Wars: The Old Republic. As we get closer to release date, more information is obviously going to be released. But, what we can expect to see is a move toward more video because that stuff gets spread around a lot easier on YouTube. And it’s video that’s going to get...more
When Can We Expect to See The Old Republic
The question most of us are probably asking as we sit in front of our computers, mind rolling with possibilities about what The Old Republic could give to usand Fan Friday making us go mad, is when the heck is the game going to be released. When can we expect to play the game and, furthermore, when can I finally be the all powerful Jedi who...more
“If You Strike Me Down…”
A major part of all MMORPGs is the death and respawn system. Each game has a somewhat unique take on being killed in its living, breathing world.
For example, Star Wars Galaxies has a cloning system, where you die and then are cloned at the nearest town with somewhat damaged items and wound damage (damage that does not heal over time).
World of...more
Banthas, Speeders, and Skiffs…Oh My!
MMORPG games take place on huge open terrains where the character is free to explore every inch of the digital world. In World of Warcraft, the game takes place on a single planet, or through a portal to another dimension. Star Wars, however, consists of an enormous galaxy with many star systems, each one containing a large number of...more
“You Shall Be Known as Darth…”
When I look at Star Wars, there are a few things that are absolutely certain. There is going to be some sort of a space battle, blasters galore are going to appear, and most importantly, there is going to be an epic lightsaber battle between a Jedi and a Sith. The Sith always has the name “Darth something.” A quick recap of the movies,...more
Gear and Skills Would be the Best – Not Just Gear
I remember the first time that I ever played World of Warcraft. My brother had the highest level he could have on his character (I can’t remember what kind) and he had to go to bed because of school and I was already off for Summer break. So, I played the game. He said to me to wake him up if I came across any gear in the raid that was purple...more
Classes Specific to Factions Can Be a Good Thing
After reading the blog post that Chris wrote on Friday about the bounty hunter class and what they are planning for it, I had to take some time to think about it and see how I felt about it. After taking that time, I was able to finally form a pretty good opinion about it. The one part that stuck out to me was that, for the time being, there would...more
No News!
I spent this past Friday anxiously clicking on “Refresh” in my browser window on http://www.swtor.com just waiting for the new news to be posted as it has been for the past couple of Fridays. But to my sorrow there was no news on Friday, nor on Saturday, not Sunday either, and here we are on Monday with no new news to speak of.
Now as...more
The Speculations of Release Date
After a long and grueling summer, TOR Universe is back. Or, I’m back. Chris was always here. Anyways…I spent the summer watching a lot of what was going on with TOR and more importantly, trying to determine what exactly was going to be the next week’s news. I missed out on publishing articles about a ton of comics as well as some other...more
