Title explains it all, how did you discover starwars, and how did you feel? I persoanly saw the original saga from the age of 5 or so, but i didnt really find it that intresting tll episode 1 (I guess seeing em in the cinema gives you a kickstart) After which i re-watched the original trilogy, loved it since then!
How bout you? _______________ Quote: I mostly agree oh Lord of the squeezy mop

Hahaha Anubis your comment made me laugh.
Anyway, I remember it clear as day. It was 1996, and I was at school waiting for the teacher to show up. My friend came over and said, "Carve, do you know what a TIE Fighter is?" and I said "Uhhh... someone who fights ties?" Then he whipped out the Star Wars Guide to Vehicles and I was so hooked it wasn't even funny. Oh yeah, and thanks to whoever it was that reminded me of Rebel Assault! Here's a link to the wiki. My God that game was terrible haha _______________ © This comment was edited by Carve on Jun 06 2008 12:13am. |

Played a star wars game when I was 6 or so never really thought about it. I think I saw the movies after I played JA. So it's because of JA that I'm a fan. _______________ May the force be with you. And may the academy stand forever! |

Family thing...

So thats my life. mines similar to that except not to that level, i never dressed up, my dad introduced me to the first starwars movies from before i could walk, after that i got a couple of SW games and toys and its built up from their with games like Jedi Academy through highschool
i don't think he likes the newer starwars movies as much as the old one though.  _______________ Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength.

Around the time Episode 1 came out, I thought it was super gay, but I wanted to watch the originals to be able to understand Episode 1 once I saw it, and I did, and after I walked out of EP 1, I thought it was fucking awesome. Then I started to play the games and read the books and SW was like crack for me from then on ^_^ _______________ Sluglife |

Was at an overnighter as a kid and we played Rebel Assault for many hours. I thought it was cool, and then my dad took me through all the Star Wars films on VHS.
I had seen Star Wars before, but only in passing. This time, I was hooked. Then I made friends with a guy who had nearly everything Star-wars related (They had 2 whole rooms dedicated to the stuff). They had tons of RPG books, Star Wars books, that I borrowed and read, so then I was hooked, and went from there. _______________ Jedi do not fight for peace.

I've been familiar with Star Wars since I was about 9 or 10. But my real fascination began when a friend offered to let me borrow a book nearly two years ago. Ever since, I've been addicted. This comment was edited by [DCT]Ganner on Nov 24 2007 05:46pm. |

I watched episode 4 with my dad on TV when I was young. I felt in love and got all the (old) episodes and starwars stuff you could buy , damn got all those SW fact files !, then ep 1, 2, 3 came and of course also bought/watched them. First I played Dark Forces then my mother gave me JK2 for my birthday. I played it till 1 year after the release of JKA. Besides it I also played some games like SW: Rogue squadron, SW: ep 1 racer and ofc the battlefront series. After JK2 I bought JKA and there we are, still hanging around and enjoying .

I'm not sure if I am into Star Wars, but I do enjoy the first trilogy (in the 70's). Still, I waited maybe a year to see episode 3 because I didn't really like ep2. Most of the recent games I ignore, but I love some of the older ones like Tie Fighter and the original Dark Forces. The movies were my introduction into star wars though; I remember my dad buying the videos and watching them almost every night. _______________ "Deos fortioribus adesse." |

My dad was a big fan of the original Star Wars trilogy, I watched it, didn't like it at all, then I watched Episode 1 in theatre, hated it. Watched it again, loved it, watched the originals, loved it. Weird. |

Sometime in the heady years before 7 my aunt sent over the OT videos, this was pre-special edition so Han shot first. I have odd memories of watching them at such a young age, I loved them from the first instant, they were the films I would watch over and over as a kid. However I used to think Luke fell out of a star destroyer not bespin? and other oddities.
My mum had been to see them when they came out, so i was encouraged as well. Played with the toys, played the games etc. The books kept me going until Episode 1 came out, although for me the big thing was when they put the OT on in cinemas for the Special Ed, went to see them all
So yeah, been a fan a fair while, i'm 20 in less than a month. Star wars is forever  _______________ To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield | Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken | Rhaiko D'kana - SWTOR EU Guild Co-Founder | Is it what the teacher, teaches? Or what the student learns? A Dkana |
