EA Assumes Greater Control Over SW: The Old Republic

EA has announced an updated deal with LucasArts today which sees them take over “certain publishing, marketing and distribution responsibilities previously designated to LucasArts” to allow for greater efficiency.  No financial terms were discussed.

The Old Republic is a much anticipated story driven MMO, set in the Star Wars universe, thousands of years before the rise of Darth Vader.  Hmm…sounds like the kind of game that should make a top 100 list…if only someone was doing one!

  3. If EA’s getting involved, you can bet the servers for this will be shit.
    They always are in EA games IMO

    • I have to agree… the servers are annoying did they set them up properly? I don’t think so

  4. i dont understand the bashing of EA at times… also i have not really noticed server problems. Like them or not EA know their stuff, and with a few minor exceptions online play on an ea server is very good.
