Spot the signs of war in this new Star Wars: TOR trailer
In anticipation of its December 20 release, and to hopefully satiate the fan base for a few more weeks, BioWare has released a new trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic. First shown to New York Comic-Con audiences, it gives players a small peek into a galaxy far, far away that is oddly populated with many human-like species. It speaks of the signs of the imminent clash between Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire: the deepening corruption of Coruscant, the secret wars on Nar Shaddaa, and the rebellions on Balmoora. On an interesting side note, I don't think they said the word "Jedi" once in this video. Interesting trailer, but I think the hundreds and hundreds of players that are still waiting their beta invite would much rather a weekend of time with the game. Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)It's pretty, but it's nothing new or of any real substance. I just want that damnable beta invite already. GW2 is looking good, but it has no subscription fee and no release date. Don't get me wrong the lack of a fee is a good thing, but it lets me feel less guilty about putting my time into both games until I can decide on one. I'm also thinking that if the end-game on SWTOR is absolutely terrible, I'll get my moneys worth by completing quests and leveling so I won't feel like walking away is a complete waste if I decide to. 9:45 PM on 06.11.2013 Jade Empire is now available on GOG.comThe classic BioWare RPG Jade Empire: Special Edition is now available on GOG.com for an introductory price of $9.99 for the first week (ending on June 18th) -- for reference, Steam currently carries it for $14.99.
