With the announcement that this goes buy to play its worth taking a look at especially if you can find it cheaper than the current online download price.

The story line and acting in the game are what SWTOR missed out on massively, although the game has its faults (and Pvp is one of them) its a great take on the genre, new approach and superb modern gothic horror lovcraftian horror setting.

If SWTOR only did two things right (or in excess rather than right) it was story and acting, now I've not played SW to compare, but TOR was not lacking either of those 2 things.
Oh and SWTOR had Hutball by far the best instanced pvp fun since WSG in WoW imo

This is on my Christmas list... might have to drop non-subtle reminders.

Just read the Life Subscription bonuses and can't say I'm upset that it's going hybrid as some people normally are.

I just hope it has the same impact it did for DDO.

Sounds like they are making it worthwhile for anyone grabbing a copy before the end of the year.

Has anyone had any experience ordering from http://www.kumbaso.com as they appear to be flogging keys for �14.99?

Having played both i guess the story lines in TWS just feel better with some actually invoking emotion. For instance the reason behind the children trapped in statues in Egypt is heart breaking - and you get to play through a mission that explains all the lore and reasons behind it.

The school and roller coaster story lines are also excellent, they just seemed better overall than SWTOR to me, though im probably being discourteous to SWTORs story line

Not used them but the reviews seem generally positive from what i can see.

I've heard a rumor that it was going f2p but can't find the link now. I'd hold off on buying it just yet...

Not free to play but Buy to play....

Buy the game then play for ever

You mean buy the game and then play for 2 months because you got bored of it?

Hehe probably, but since it takes me ten times as long as anyone else to level a character up I should get about a year's worth of play... with no subs.

Huttball was amazing, certainly the most replayable pvp that I've played so far. Think my Sith Healer is still kitted out with some of the token gear acquired from playing that.
