It is 3,000 years before the events of that take place in the first Star Wars movie occur. The Jedi and the Republic are at war with the Sith and the Empire. Choose your allegiance, the Jedi or the Sith, and create your own part of the amazing Star Wars saga in Star Wars: The Old Republic. This massive multiplayer online role playing game from LucasArts and BioWare, Star Wars: The Old Republic, gives players the chance to be one of the heroes in Star Wars. While many games have tried to overthrow World of Warcraft as the largest MMORPG in the world, none have succeeded.
However, with the Star Wars franchise on its side, Star Wars: The Old Republic could possibly take the title from World of Warcraft. But will this game deliver a story and gameplay that is compelling enough to do the name justice? Star Wars: The Old Republic places the player as the nucleus of the massive Star Wars story.
Gamers can choose to be either on the side of the Jedi, or the Sith, and can select the class of character that suits their playing style. The game features graphics that are reminiscent of World of Warcraft and the visuals run smoothly. Will this game be as big, or bigger, than World of Warcraft? Only time will tell.
The new MMORPG from a galaxy far away.
