Has anyone else been watching the this game in progress? http://www.swtor.com/news/blog
Personally I have found the 'making of' articles fascinating, and was wondering what reactions/impressions other people (assuming I am not alone in this) have had from it.

If the people I know who I played WOW with pick this up then it might encourage me back to a bit of PC gaming.

Ha, yes I agree. Community was one of WOW's stronger points, and if they can get that working, it should be great to play...

I have been watching its clips as they appear. It looks interesting and will probably be bought when I get a console.

Well not a problem. I will not be replacing the TV with a HD version till later in the year, and will possibly get a console soon after that. Probably an Xbox 360 first.

I'd suggest a PS3 Slim for better playback of file-types, BR capability in case they actually become mainstream :lol: , free online play, browser, and it doesn't sound like a Chinook :oops:

Yes but the problem is that there are few PS3 games that I want.

Yes what I should do is wander around GAME and compile a list of games that are on one machine or another or both before deciding what to buy. Though I would probably buy both eventually as they both have their merits even if it is BluRay playback on the PS3.

I am afraid that, from what I can see, it will only be for PC, as the original announcement was only for a PC game, and can see no reference to any other console since then. That does not preclude the fact that they may release it at a later date for consoles, like when they released Force Unleashed for PC a year or so after the original console versions were released (I forget which ones, they all blend into one for me).

Yes but I would prefer a console version of this game rather than just a PC version.
