Seeing as how it is the next SW MMORG, this doesn't really surprise me. I haven't seen to many MMORG's played on console gaming systems.

Does any one know what the cost of this game? I definitely want to buy this.

Pure speculation: probably around $50 for the game itself and $15 per month after the first month. That's what most other MMO's cost.  I doubt we'll see this game before Q4 next year, though.

Trumby,

Thanks for the information.

I saw the Bioware presentation for The Old Republic at the Penny Arcade Expo on Sunday.

You haven't really seen the trailer until you have seen it in high-definition with mind-blowing sound.  I cried.

The game looks great. We got to see quite a bit of gameplay, including the first footage of the Trooper class.  The combat looks like pretty standard MMO style action.

The Bioware guys placed a lot of emphasis on story, and they showed several examples of interactive dialogue trees that are fully voiced.  That was cool.  My only concern is how many cutscenes I will be watching compared to how much time I am actually playing.

It mostly looks like a KOTOR you can play with your friends (and a few other knuckle-draggers).  Fun!
