    SOE dangles the bait again... read before you try it

    By Raven_Lord | Review Date: Nov 16, 2005 | PC

    Before you bite on this bait and get reeled in, consider the following: the gameplay is now a mix of RPG and action-shooter elements. The combat is like that in an action shooter game (a bad one). All unique and original... Read Full Review

    A big disappointment

    By privatemc | Review Date: Nov 16, 2005 | PC

    To go from maybe the best mmorpg to the worst in a flash. Its no longer a role playing game, and its not even a first person shooter. I'm not sure what to call it or compare it to. Was a great game of skill a srategy.... Read Full Review

    New game enhancements ruined this MMO! Don't waste your money or your time on this fiasco from SoE. Accounts cancelled!!

    By Jerzgamergal | Review Date: Nov 16, 2005 | PC

    I've played SWG since release back in 2003 and have stood by the MMO up until now. The NGE is horrible. It's been converted to a poor version of an FPS, a very BAD FPS. All games have bugs, but this should never have gon... Read Full Review

    DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

    By feydls | Review Date: Nov 15, 2005 | PC

    If you're intent on buying an MMORPG, then you better go look elsewhere, cause SWG is no longer that game. What was once a vibrant game with depth and playability is now no more worthwhile than a basic FPS on a handheld... Read Full Review

    Such a shame that SOE decided to take a unique MMORPG and dummie it down for the consoles.

    By RazorBat | Review Date: Nov 15, 2005 | PC

    Take a great MMORPG, dummie it down for a mass audience by giving it pseudo-FPS elements, and you have the new Star Wars Galaxies. I'd love to go on about how great the new changes are, but I cannot. SOE seems to not ... Read Full Review

    Not worth playing

    By PyscoJuggalo | Review Date: Nov 15, 2005 | PC

    If you want to have experience as an Alpha tester, this game is for you. If you want something enjoyable? Play battlefront 2. 1- The interface is horrid, you need 3 hands to use it. 2- This is no longer a MMORPG, ... Read Full Review
