There are more than just this one trailer..but this one is pretty much a seller for me... I really wanna try this game out now...  this is a new Star Wars MMO being made by Bioware(I love Bioware they are a kick ass developer)..

Yeah that trailer was pretty badass. The fight between the Sith and the Jedi was better than most of what seen in the prequel episodes.

That trailer was breathtaking. Probably the Best Lightsaber battle i have ever seen. In the TOR forums apparently a heated debate about the sith lord who killed that Jedi master (which many complain about they need to get over it good guys die) Is ongoing, the devs have hinted he may be Revan the sith lord  in KOTOR series, and note the masks of the sith warriors are Revan shaped as well suggesting they follow him as a cult leader type. The game looks great, but the lightsaber combat looks pretty bad if you watch a demo of classes available, a sith player and a bounty hunter face off against a total mace windu copy jedi master boss (he even has a purple saber for cryin g out loud) and the duels animations are very uninspired IMO very clunky and hack slash vs elegent parrying and style i was hoping it would have. still looks good though.

Im tired of sword/shield/magic type MMO's ...this switch to Star Wars/Star Trek/Stargate MMO's is a nice change...looking forward to all 3 of them(ST Online,Stargate Worlds, this Star Wars the old republic)

I love all games made by Bioware ...due to the in depth way they do things with the full character interactions and such..and they are quality made normally..

So the 3 by them im waiting for is Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age, and Star Wars: The old Republic...

I'm not sure how it could be Revan, unless he learned to live for 300 years.

Looks pretty fun!  Not much has changed since KotoR--the same combat systems, the same gameplay.  That's not a bad thing, mind you.  I liked KotoR!  The story was the strongest point of course, but it was really fun to play!  It would have been nice if they had upped the ante in other departments, though, like facial expressions and body language, and refined the combat animations to be a bit more fluid.  But still, if it gets good reviews, I'll buy it!

A Sith Lord living for hundreds of years? Who could have done that? *Cough ALL OF THEM cough*

Darth Traya and Scion were hundreds of years old and still extremely powerful.

Also, that isn't Revan in the video. Revan was a woman. She's probably calling the shots, though.
