A slight change to our usual programming, check out this multiplayer footage of Star Wars: The Old Republic as shown during E3 this year. Sure, SW:TOR is only for PC (for now, don’t forget – there was some talk of the game coming to consoles in a future far, far away), but we thought you might enjoy something a little different for the weekend.
Unlike other previous (and fancier) videos for The Old Republic, this isn’t CGI badassness of Jedi and Sith settling their differences via force-chokes and sabre-swishing. Nope – this is what the game actually looks like.

Really do love Star Wars but I really dislike MMOs. Not sure what the subscription model for this is going to be either. If I do decide on getting, I’d have to upgrade my computer anyway.

Pay per month, definitely. Testing started today, we were lucky enough to get two invites in work so hoping to play this next week!

What are your computers like? And does it work fine or don’t you know yet?

We have a selection for testing purposes, everything from base models to high end gaming machines. Not seen it running yet, that’ll have to wait ’till Monday (unless I pop in to the office tomorrow and it’s tempting now) but it’s early code so I don’t think anyone will be saying it runs fine for a good while yet.

Used to love play MMO on the PC, but got very bored with the whole experience now. To me the online console experience is new but I am loving every minute of it.

SW:TOR is only for PC
still in PS3 section… Any reason for that? Actually, I would be quite happy to play it on my PS3 :-)
