It is going to be based in the KotOR time of the Star Wars universe. Star Wars Galaxies is done for the most part. Last I heard LucasArts is no longer giving Sony permission to do any more expansions so what they have now is it. I could be wrong, but with the popularity of KotOR series, and how XBox Live is set up I can see this being a cross platform XBox 360/Windows Vista MMO which allows the PC and consolers interact on the same servers in the Star Wars KotOR universe. My issue is the rules system being used since the original KotORs use an offshoot of the d20 System. I am wondering if WotC will get in the mix with the MMO using a version of the SWSE rules. It could be interesting if they do.

Sure, rub it in. Well, I just reserved it on pre-order. I am wondering what type of character to play. Maybe a Earth Genasi Sorcerer/Favored Soul. :D

I agree with this statement. I use to work at McDonald's and have since learn not to eat there.

Oh yes, being a chicken kicker makes a real deep game. It was an okay action CRPG with a cliche storyline. Better than most X Box titles, but not by much.

You are trying to run a 32 bit application on a 64 bit OS. That's what is going on. It simply will not work.

HA!

Eh? Fable? Thought provoking?!?!?! I have played Fable during my stint on the X Box. It was nowhere near thought provoking. Planescape Torment was a thought provoking game. Fable was a POS game.

FENGIE! *pounces on Fengie and shoves Todd Howard down his throat*

At least I gave them a try in the efforts to expand my gaming horizon.

I think we need greater globalization, just as long as the immigration done is legal. There is going to be a point in which the individual nation states like China, the United States, Switzerland, Australia, and so forth will no longer exist. Either politically or economically, or even both, we will become a single entity, a unified Earth. The sooner, the better.

I played Halo and Halo 2. Didn't like either one.

I just wish people actually read the system specs and do some research on a game before buying. Zoma, I love that review.

There is nothing wrong with being a parasite. They have feelings to, you know.

In one game my character killed anyone who said that. KILL THEM ALL!

If I was leading this country I wouldn't have invaded Iraq to cause this situation in the first place. I firmly believe that a nation, and people, needs to stand on its own two feet and take on the threats, either internal or external, on its own. If it is meant to survive, it will prevail. If not, then it won't. I would help as much as possible, don't get me wrong, but I would not help a country to a point that puts my own in risk, either economically or militarily.

Its not a matter of them wanting us to stay or leave, but the reasons why we went in there in the first place. Yes, its nice that the Iraqis now have an elected government but the US only really cares if that elected government is pro-US. Our administration would rather have a Pro-US dictatorship than a Anti-US democratically elected government which shows the hipocrisy. We went there on false pretenses, on lies, and that will never change no mater how much you gloss it up with PR. Not my problem. It shouldn't be our government's problem either. The Bush Administration messed it all up. WHy the hell should the US people have to pay for his mistakes? Why should we tie up our resources, in manpower and capital for Bush's little **** up? That is one of the reasons I am looking forward to the next election. We will be getting rid of Bush and with any luck a Democrat will be president. Then, I hope, we can put our military to use as it should be. AS A FREAKING MILITARY and not a police force. Yes, it is a sticky situation and the best way to deal with it is to clean our hands from it and hopefully learn from this mistake. I hope next time this sort of crap happens we learn from the mistakes of Vietnam, Korea, and Iraq. We go in, do the objectives, then immediately pull out.

Well, at least its not badger crack.

The problem with this is that we are using the army to occupy and police a foreign country. That is stupid and waste of resources. Our military should be used as a military force and not a police force. They are to go in, hit the targets and kill people, then leave. Go in, do the job, then leave. It is unfortunate that our idiot president failed to learn the lessons of Vietnam and Korea. If we do have a way with Iran it needs to be a full scale war in which we use the full scale of our military might, short of nuclear weapons and if they launch nukes then so should we. Once the job is done, we leave.

Never underestimate the level of human stupidity.

We need complete and total pull out of Iraq and focus on the people who actually attacked us on 9/11. Al Qaeda and the Taliban.

I hated the lock picking minigame. I simply hit the auto button till I either ran out of lock picks or open the lock.

Hmm, Obsidian has created a Star Wars game and a FR game. Now they are working on Aliens. Do you feel the same way about them? There is a difference here. Obsidian needs "established" settings because they are a starting company when they took KotOR2 and NWN2. With Aliens it is just a movie tie in which there is no previous Aliens CRPG done before so they are in fresh territory. Bethesda on the other hand have been around for years, been doing their own thing for years, and have been very successful. Now all of a suddent they are taking the work of others instead of making their own settings? If Bethesda continued with the PotC based off the Disney franchise that would be okay because the game series would be their own, but Fallout is not their own game. Neither would Thief. They don't have the same excuse as Obsidian has because they are not a brand new starting company. They should be doing what Bioware is doing, making original games. Both companies have been around for years and are coontemparies of each other. Bethesda is doing Fallout 3, while Bioware is doing Mass Effect and Dragon Age. 2 original games out do one "blast from the past."
