Last Friday, BioWare released its latest edition of the Timeline. This one was titled the Fall of Exar Kun. In this, we get some first hand information into who Exar Kun is and his fall to the Dark Side. While there have been other reports about Exar Kun, this might be the correct one considering LucasArts has a lot of say in the way this game is going. However, there are two key things to take fr... more.

In this world, there are three types of people. The first is the type of person that fights for their job, wanting to ensure that they keep it. The other is the type of person who just gives up and walks away. And the third type is the person who whines and complains rather than doing something productive. Today, allow me to talk a bit about that third one. According to a supposed ex-EA/Mythic ... more.

As the title suggests, there is going to be a Star Wars: The Old Republic novel #3. There is no title. The author is known. Actually, the author is incredibly well known. For those that have read the Darth Bane novels or the Mass Effect novels, you know that Drew Karpyshyn is an incredible writer. And, with the third TOR novel slated for release in November 2011, all I can say is, "FINALLY!" Wh... more.

A while back, on the tail of more information about space combat in TOR being released, BioWare created another page on their Holonet about the different ships that are going to be available to players. For now, they've only released actual images and videos of the Jedi Defender and the Sith Fury. However, they have shown cut outs of what the other ships are going to look like. If you head over... more.

As we continue our coverage of GamesCom 2010, Daniel Erickson interviewed with Gamespot about space combat and the advanced classes. The video will be posted below. In the video, they discuss why they are doing space combat the way they are and also they're discussing whether or not that balance between advanced classes has been reached. And they talked a little about the companions which I'm stil... more.

GamesCom is going on in Germany and that means that we are going to be getting a ton of reveals over the next couple of days. The first one--other than the space combat in TOR video--is the advanced class reveals. BioWare decided that it was time to release the different advanced classes and I have to say, some of them are pretty cool. We already know the Jedi advanced classes, but now we have the... more.

I have been avoiding this topic for a little while because it is one that is difficult for me. Space combat is an integral part of Star Wars: The Old Republic. I wrote about it back in the beginning of the year and then I wrote about it again only a few weeks ago. I was right that they were going to release space combat, but I was incredibly wrong about how they were going to do it. There's a good... more.

Since the interview with Animosity-Guild was so successful, I decided that I would do another one, but this time, gear it toward a Republic leaning guild. This time around, I had a head set mic so I didn't sound like I was in a space ship, so I was pleased with how it turned out. As I mentioned in the first interview, this is a new resource I am putting together for members as the game gets closer... more.

In a release that I had been personally waiting for, BioWare announced on Friday what the two advanced classes of the Jedi Knight were. Before I go into detail about them, let me just start by saying that it's about freaking time. I intend on playing as the Jedi Knight first and I was a little frustrated with how little was being provided to us. However, BioWare didn't disappoint and they released... more.

On Friday, BioWare and Dark Horse released their next comic in the Blood of the Empire series. In this comic, we get to see Teneb run into the ever illusive Jedi Master who had his padawan trailing him. And, most exciting, he is a Miraluka which was an obvious hint leading up to the class reveals. They fight a bit and then he lets Teneb go. However, for the poor padawan, he doesn't get the same fa... more.
