Star Wars Galaxies Reviewed
Tark writes "Want the inside scoop of what SWG is like? Well, Warthog has written a review for all of you, entitled 'Warrior, Brawler, Hairdresser' with his insights on the game. Sort of. Let's just say you won't find a review anything like this one anywhere else."

Which sounds like a pretty fair summary of the SWG login process.

And here I thought this article was going to be about the theoretical plausibility of the layout of the Star Wars universe...how silly of me.

"That's no moon... it's a slashdotting!"
Laugh at my Lisp and I keeell you.
Funny, I got "Could not connect to remote server." That is as accurate a review of SWG right now as one could write.
It's nothing but crumpled porno and Ayn Rand.
Want to build a giant white Wookie, and name him Abominable? Knock yourself out.
Are we trying to compensate for something here?
"Some fight for law. Some fight for justice. What will you fight for? One day, you will see."
"Keep your pants on, fellow game geek!"
Hey, not all geeks get their jollies off on Star Wars Galaxy. I heard that some geeks use porn.

Warthog has written a review for all of you ...
Warthog... don't you mean the 'puma'??
Sometimes the best solution to morale problems is just to fire all the unhappy people.
I''''m of the opinion that Warthog''''s review is more imaginative than anyone else''''s. However, he''''s in need of a good editor, or maybe just needing a keyboard where it''''s possible to clean the sticky punctuation keys.
anyone have a link to said photo?
i think i'll be the judge of a mediocre Kirsten Dunst, thank you very much.
We're like rats, in some experiment! -- George Costanza
I don't understand, where are the pictures? I was doing a goggle search for "Kirsten Dunst naked" and I get this?
Think of it this way:
I'm an average Joe. I am 31 years old and grew up enjoying Star Wars. I hear about the game, and decide to go get it. I load up the game, read the manual, and find out I can't get an X-Wing.
I just lost 80% of my interest in the game.
Now, when I go around and fight, I realize that the graphics are pretty, but there isn't much gameplay.
I decide it isn't worth the monthly charge, and cancel my subscription.
Now, take out the '30 year old growing up on star wars', and you have everquest.
The game is about going around, enhancing your levels/skills, the end. Yeah, I can nitpick and find differences, too, but the game still only appeals to MMORPG types like everquest lovers.
That (along with the lack of space) is why I said it is nothing more than EQ with a SW theme.
I just want to play a SW MMOG that isn't a fp based, planet based, character interaction game. I wanted a space-sim, work on space based skills (like scounting, and lasers, engineering, and piloting, and mining, and capitalship systems), and join in massive wars, like the battle of endor. Not some, "I'm an ewok, would you like me to dance for you in exchange for a haircut and axe" game.
Good quote, too many chars. Seriously, the slashdot 120 char limit sucks!
I'm one of the biggest fans of MMORPGS...
But the funnest thing I did in galaxies was create a:
Fat man with a mullet
Strip him to his wife beater and skivvies
Teach him dancing
Take him to the cantina
And give everyone who came in lapdances and grinds
"Its my fueltank for love."
"I'm dead sexy."
"Buisness in the front, party in the back"
And random in your face comebacks.
