Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided.........Game of the Year or no?

:alliance:I havent played it yet but I have watched several videos of both cinematics and gameplay. And thusfar this game looks phenomenal. And I will be bold enough to say that I think An Empire Divided could give both Halflife2 and World of Warcraft a run for their money. The ONLY thing I had a problem with was the pay to play gig....not crazy about that and I know that WoW is the same way. But the graphics looked outstanding and the fact that finally you can almost live in the Star Wars universe just seemed incredible to me. Right now though I dont think my video card could handle this game...ill put my pc specs below if anyone is bored and wants to know lol. So, do any of you think that SW Galaxies: Empire Divided is worthy of game of the year? And for you who have played it, what do you think of it so far?:alliance:

PC SPECS:
2.4 Ghz Processor
512 MB Memory
60 GB Harddrive
32 MB Video (:(....soon to be upgraded to 64mb)
Windows XP

update......if you havent bought SWG yet you might want to read my thread on it and my experience with their customer service and such before you spend 30 bucks to buy it and another 30 just to get that free 30 days it says on the box otherwise you'll end up in the mess I was in.....just make sure you contact SOE or lucasarts to get the full details before you spend your cash like I did.:empire:


Or you could simply read the back of the box :P


Bought it off a retailers website. Terms and conditions of the free trial were not shown on the page so I wasnt at fault. All I can say is research and ask questions before you buy. I got lucky, I was able to return this friggin thing.:alliance:

Probably somewhere around the region of $2000. Not many people have 3gb of RAM.

SWG!?
gah. don't get me started.
I played that game for 6 months. It took me that long to figure out how pathetic the game really is.
I mean, sure, it's got good graphics. The animations are really cool, too. However, eye candy aside, the game is just... bad. There is no semblance of balance between classes. There is always one or two classes that EVERYBODY MUST BE!!!11!!1!11 What those classes are change basically every monthly patch. Also, there is nothing to do. Hey look, i'm a master [insert profession] now. What do i do now? Start over with a different profession? Do i REALLY want to start all over!? Go to dungeons? Well, look, here are a few dungeons, let's go in... well, i'm at the end. Now what? Go back, start over? Why?! Get badges? Wow, senseless travelling is more boring than i thought...

There is nothing to do in SWG. Escape now, or you will suffer later. It takes time, but eventually you will figure it out for yourself.
The guild (PA, if you want to use that term) i was in, we were all people who would play pretty much every day for a few hours. A few months in, people started trickling out. Very few remain, now.

SWG is a horrible game, and i'm clueless as to how many people are clueless about it.

Edit:
And anyway, people saying it should be game of the year have no idea what they're talking about. SWG came out LAST YEAR, people... early last year, at that.


I respect your opinion and you should never force your opinion to change someone from playing the game, i have played this game for almost a year now ( on 26th demcember it will be 1 yr ) and i love it, im BH and im grinding out TK now i have finally decided wot professions i wish to do. i never get bored of hunting Jedi ( REAL PLAYERS ) or doin some quests dotted about.

With the release of JTL, thats pumped it up even more, JTL is awesome saves paying for travel costs from planet to planet and the space combat is awesome too.

I've said this lots of times, SWG is only as good as you make it.

Iceman, we don't all have 500 dollars to spend on a video card. :P I think my machine is pretty average gaming wise, and it lags.
