Force Majeure

The gravest mistake the producers of the latest Star Wars movies ever made was to think they could tell a great story. In doing so they failed to realise that the greatest of all Star Wars stories hav… Read more

There are gems to find

As you can see, the reviews are all over the place for this game and that is due to the fact that the game has a lot of stuff, some of which is good and some of which is bad, and the question is: will… Read more

A great single player MMO

I bought Star Wars: The Old Republic back when it came out and it has been sitting on my shelf staring at me all these years, and with the new movies ramping up I have an overwhelming urge to get into… Read more

Much better than expected if you stick to the good stuff

Star Wars The Old Republic is better than Grand Theft Auto V. If your head just exploded, I apologize. Let me explain. The Old Republic has issues, namely that is for most part a bland cookie-cutter t… Read more

Star Wars: The Old Republic: It is OK.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is a very strange game. Not in the same way that KOTOR II was strange, with its outright evisceration for classic Star Wars tropes, but strange in that even years into its… Read more

SWTOR, The Game You Need to Play or Your Life Will Be Disadvantaged

by saltwaterdiode Yes it’s that good. What’s better than being a part of the force? When SWTOR first came out people bought it up (they even invested in it before it was released). Fans played through… Read more

Used to be good, now the memories have been soiled.

Bizarre isnt it? That a game which had such high production values, hype and potential, managed to crash so hard. When the game was released, I was there and in fairness I had a great time. I still ha… Read more

Good Game, needs more players

Pros - If you are a Star Wars and MMO RPG fan like me, this game combines the two the quests/mission are fun and follow a story line the GUI and controls are similar to most MMOs RPGs and easy to lear… Read more

Dissapointment

The opening cinematics were amazing with nearly real life graphics, then you get to the actual in game graphics and cutscenes which are horrible, like playing an old James Bond N64 game horrible, cons… Read more

SWTOR Remains Dreadful Indeed

The worst game of all time. A dreadful MMO indeed. I played up to level 30 at launch using 14 days of the 90 days I was required to purchase for $90. The experience was so aweful I didn't use any of t… Read more

Not As Good As I Expected

While writing a review for The Old Republic (TOR) it’s difficult to not draw comparisons to World of Warcraft. Over the years, I’ve tried most of the latest MMOs to come down the pipe, (Age of Conan,… Read more

"The Force is Strong With This One"

One of the first purchases I ever made when I got the original Xbox along with a couple duke controllers, was a little game developed by Bioware called Knights of the Old Republic. I was only ten year… Read more

Better? Yes. Good? No.

Fascinating trappings and genuine genre improvements don't save Star Wars: The Old Republic from being the next in a long line of MMORPG's that fail to live up to the promise of the genre. The game is… Read more

A solid foundation

Star Wars. It's a very polarizing topic. Some people can't get enough of those crazy lightsaber dudes and the Force. People like me, however, don't find anything about Star Wars even remotely interest… Read more

Why you should fall in love, with an MMO

I ask only that you do not judge this review by the meaningless star-rating that precedes it, but rather the content of this review. Star Wars the Old Republic (SWTOR) has finally been released, after… Read more
