Star Wars: The Old Republic

[Chux]

It's an MMO, it'll be on sale for $40 during the first month probably three or four times.

I know Rift did this online a lot. EA is purposely making a low print run, I'd assume to drive origin sales.

This makes me want to buy a few of the CE's and hold onto them for a few years. The original WOW CE's with unused key's can fetch over a grand.

[Josh]

waitwaitwait. $60 a month?

[Yoshi]

No, the game price is $60. I'd be shocked if the monthly fee was anything other than the WoW standard $15.

[Timber]

Yeah, they'd have to be retarded to go over the $15 a month. And they'd be really smart to go with $10/mo to maybe swing some of the casual WOWers on over.

[Yoshi]

You have to give BioWare credit for having the cajones to claim the game will make it to 2025 and warrant an art and making of book.

[MechDeus]

It's a Star Wars product. You could release an art book entirely of toilets in the Star Wars universe and it would sell.

[Despair]

Hmm, Star Wars guide to Exotic plumbing.

[Timber]

I'll probably end up with the Art & Making Of book when I can find it for around $15.

I would buy that.

[Yoshi]

I'd probably go for the art book at $26 if I knew when it was dropping. With the Collector's Edition, the iPhone 5, the Vita, and a shload of other games all potentially coming before the end of the year, I have to stay conscious of keeping myself on budget. I'm actually rooting for the Vita to miss the holiday season, as that's the lowest priority, but I'd still like to have it at launch.
