Imagine a game in the Star Wars Universe. Imagine a game where you and your friends can meet up and kill rancors, and other creatures in the Star Wars Universe. Now imagine that no matter which class you choose, you are *exactly* the same as everyone else playing the game. Imagine that once you reach level 35, you are left with no quests, no help, and an incredibly long leveling treadmill to level 90.

This is Sony Online Entertainment's answer to what was "wrong" with Star Wars Galaxies from the beginning. Time Sinks, Leveling treadmills, bugs, and lack of content. SOE's trademark on every game they publish. Only this time, they add in a little flair. Lies, trickery, deceit, empty promises. These are Sony's new tools.

If you loved Planetside and SOCOM, you'll like this. Except for the fact that nothing you do means anything, and leveling takes forever in the new system. Want to spend 6 months on your character while shooting away in one giant meaningless mess? This is the game for you. No brains needed. This game can be played with apple-sauce for brains.

    If you want to have experience as an Alpha tester, this game is for you. If you want something enjoyable? Play battlefront 2. 1- The interface is horrid, you need 3 hands to use it. 2- This is no longer a MMORPG, ... Read Full Review
