The fine folks over at iBUYPOWER have put together this Star Wars-themed case. Which might be a sweet gift for any The Old Republic player… you know, if you could actually buy it here.
Detailed last week and set to release next week, Star Wars: The Old Republic‘s first major update, Rise of the Rakghouls, looks pretty spectacular. It’s a pity it won’t look this good to players.
When it comes to epic battles between fictional forces, I generally find myself siding with the good guys. If I were a Transformer, I’d be an Autobot. I’d join G.I. Joe before Cobra. I consider myself more of a Plant than a Zombie.
“Kaon Under Siege” a level 50 flashpoint — a smaller raid limited to a group of four — has been added to the game. Four bosses also have been added to “Karagga’s Palace”, which is an Operation or full-fledged raid.
It’s too bad there’s no option to just settle down and retire in BioWare’s Star Wars: The Old Republic. After hours of questing amidst the tranquil sands of Tatooine, I’m ready for a lengthy break.
What happens when a crazy Smuggler is joined by, a Jedi Consular, a Trooper, and a Sith Warrior in week two of Kotaku‘s Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO Log? Opinions change, ideas form, and they all learn a little something about friendship (and possibly crafting).
A Jedi might not care about the sins of the flesh, but Google certainly does, replacing the still for a developer diary with a steamy porn thumbnail in the search results for Star Wars: The Old Republic.
Massively multiplayer games come into the world as wriggly things full of writhing paths of possibility. This changes as soon as those servers go live and players start interacting with each other and the content. Running beta tests can predict some exploits and behaviours, but the game’s also still being built while those betas are happening. Nevertheless, every beat must end and the game in question’s got to come out eventually. For Star Wars: The Old Republic, that time was this week in the US.
While the rest of Kotaku dedicated themselves to squeezing every ounce of gaming out of the world we live in last week, I spent the latter half on vacation, and by “on vacation” I mean playing Star Wars: The Old Republic.
It may be massively multiplayer, but Star Wars: The Old Republic is still a BioWare game, and that means dialogue trees. Let me share with you the rules I’ve set in place to make sure my Smuggler character is every bit the scoundrel I want him to be.
