I must say that the story arc is a big draw for me as well. Having played mass effect I know just how much Bio-ware puts into the story. Now the Knights of the old republic is now available on
steam for $10 I might just dl it to get the back story. Also, it is important to note the Star wars Galaxies is still going to be running during this period. It is still pay to play but the open sourced
Star Wars Emu is free takes the game
before Sony decided to implement the idiotic combat upgrade and should be online here shortly.
