Highly addictive, innovative, immersive, just plain fun, worth playing (for hours on end), Underappreciated, Rocks, masterpiece, amazing. Just a few ways to describe this game.
I downloaded the 14 day trial, not too long ago. But, I have played this game before, a few years ago, at my friends house. It took a little time to get used to the controls, and for my computer to get used to the game considering it was in the shop for a few weeks.
I was a little nervous as I was about to play the game, after hearing all of the flaming in other reviews and comments, saying that after SONY ONLINE took over, the game just flat out sucked.
I grabbed my mouse in anticapation, almost falling out of my seat when I saw the title STAR WARS fill up my screen with that classic intro soundtrack.
I played the game for the longest I had ever played any game in one sitting. I stayed up all night long, and did not go to sleep.
I chose the bounty hunter profession, being me I like my moneys. You want a job done. How much does it pay?
As I continued to play them game, I began to wonder... Why do so many people say that this game sucks, or that it's dead?
I ran through Mos Eisly Space Port seeing alot of people wondering around, doing whatever they were doing. So, the game couldnt have been dead. And the gameplay was perfect. It was epic. My soul was being funneld into my computer screen. I started the game at 10 p.m. and didnt look away until 4 in the morning.
The only thing I do not like though, is that everyone, their mothers and their pet Gold fish are running around as Jedi's or Sith. I have seen a few commando's though and entertainers. But, I think I am the only trader (on my other character) in the entire galaxy. ? I'm guessing the economy realy sucks in that galaxy, considering there is no one to run the business'.
Anyways, what I am trying to say, is that the game is just wonderful. Alot of fun. I really think this game just gets a bunch of grief from alot of people, for stupid little reasons. If your mad that everyone is a jedi like you, then there is something wrong with you. It is only a game. Go try something different. Go get some fresh air. :P
But, to all of the new people who have been looking into this game, but are too afraid of playing it, dont be. Download the trial from here, Gamespot, and see if it is really the game for you.
It is alot of fun, and all that you would expect from a galaxy far far away...

Once in a mmorpg, far, far away, this game was decent. Then Sony bought the rights...

Massive universe with a limited population. Good game, but not great.

A long time ago this game was worth the absurd monthly fees.
