At CES, Electronic Arts' CEO, John Riccitiello, discussed about the financial futures of the company. He gave the unfortunate news of 1,500 people being laid off, the economy and the holiday season not being nearly as good as they had hoped for. However, in a rare bit of information, he talked specifically about Star Wars: The Old Republic. Riccitiello said that they were planning the launch of "o... more.

It wouldn't be an effective Star Wars game if the Dark side of the force was not strong, formidable, and more importantly, downright evil looking. Whether the Dark side is evil in your opinion or not doesn't matter; they have to look the role that is presented to them and that is one of personal achievement over that of everyone around them. Only through victory, shall my chains be broken. Because... more.

In their developer walk-through, members of the BioWare team went into detail about a few different components of Star Wars: The Old Republic. When bringing it all together, it's easy to see that this walk-through provides a lot of information on classes, planets, combat, dialogue, decisions, and story. At the bottom of this post, you can watch the video and see for yourself how much information t... more.

As much as we haven't really talked about PAX, there was a lot of information there that really give some interesting components to TOR that many people, including myself, were curious about. Although it's not The Old Republic release date, what it does provide is just a good amount of information that makes you sit back and go, "Cool, that makes the game even more exciting." It's these little bit... more.

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 things, but what I've constantly been trying to determine is... more.

So, it's not often that I am wowed. Okay, that's not exactly true. I've always been wowed when it has come to Star Wars, but other than that, very rarely am I wowed. It's just too damn hard to wow me because I have such high expectations of games. Today, I watched the EA press conference and other than the fact that it was damn amazing to see everyone walk out in Sith and Jedi attire (with armor, ... more.

It appears that the Timeline videos that are being published once every month and a half are actually going backwards rather than forwards. So, the Timeline 1: Treaty of Coruscant is the most recent event and we are now going back in time. We pick up to the point before the Treaty of Courscant where there is a tremendous blockade on Coruscant. The people are starving and are starting to panic. The... more.

Another release of Threat of Peace brings more information about what's going on during The Old Republic era of Star Wars. Looking at it, you've got to admit that things are really starting to get heated up and are really getting exciting. We'll take a look at each page and what stands out the most from it. First and foremost, when looking at the first page, it's apparent that our friend the Tr... more.

We saw the release of another planet by BioWare, Ord Mantell, and obviously we were all excited. We're always excited when there is new content released and we are shown glimpses into what is going to be available in the game. With the release of Ord Mantell and the release of Nal Hutta, we have a few planets to really start playing around with. It sort of makes sense too. On Nal Hutta, we know wh... more.

Alright, alright, I understand that this is old news and I look like a total n00b for posting it now rather than a couple of weeks ago when it popped up, but when I found this new, I had to post it. For those of you that don't know who Drew Karpyshyn is, let me fill you in on who he is, what he has done, and what he might be able to bring to the SWTOR team. If you're not as excited as I am after r... more.
