Star Wars: Galaxies, Shuts Down, 2011 - The Old Republic takes over

Star Wars: Galaxies, an MMORPG set in the Star Wars universe, has been set to be shut down on December 15, 2011. This is an obvious decision seeing as how there is a newer and far better looking MMO game coming very soon from the awesome game designers at Bioware: Star Wars: The Old Republic.




The Old Republic is an MMO set a few thousand years before the Star Wars movies; it is technically a sequel to the games Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KotoR) and KotoR2. These two games were well received, but the second one had quite a few more flaws than the first and it was rushed out the door by its publisher, so the multiple endings that the game was supposed to have were never created.






Anyway, I can't wait until this awesome looking game is released, but it's still sad that Star Wars: Galaxies is going to be shut down because of it; not that I've played it or know anything about it, but it's sad for the people who play it and love it.

Mass Effect: Genesis, DLC, Now available on 360 and PC

Mass Effect was released a few years ago for the Xbox 360 and PC. Mass Effect 2 was released, later, for only the 360 and the PC, as well; however, in early 2011, EA decided to release a PS3 version, containing any of the DLC (downloadable content) from the game that was already released for the other systems.

Mass Effect 2 may have been released on the PS3, but Mass Effect was not; Bioware has made their games to where they rely on the choices that you've made in the games before. Mass Effect choices carry over to Mass Effect 2. The reason Mass Effect is not on the PS3 is because Microsoft owns the publishing rights for the original game, while EA owns the publishing rights to any sequels of it.

Because of Mass Effect 2 being released on the PS3 without Mass Effect, they decided to go ahead and include something that allows the player to make choices without it just being a heap of questions thrown at the player; they made a comic called Mass Effect: Genesis.



Mass Effect: Genesis was only available on the PS3 version for five months, but it is now finally released on the 360 and PC for 320 Microsoft Points (360) or 320 Bioware Points (PC). If you don't feel like playing through Mass Effect again or you don't want to play it at all, then this four dollar DLC is a great choice; however, I recommend playing the first game, it's very impressive and the comic simply skips way too much of the original game's important and memorable parts.

Star Wars: The Old Republic, Cost $80,000,000 for EA!

Electronic Arts' company, Bioware, is responsible for making Dragon Age, Mass Effect and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic series'. Now, Bioware is working on an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) that has already cost EA $80 million dollars to make!

Electronic Arts has also said that it will only take 350,000 subscribers to the game to make it profitable - however, with how amazing this game looks, I would expect it to garner far more subscribers than that. I really hope this game does well, someone needs to finally beat WoW!

Mass Effect 3, Delayed until 2012

Mass Effect 3 was supposed to be released around the same time as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and the same time as Minecraft. These both are being released on November 11, 2011 - now, Mass Effect 3 is being released around the same time as Mass Effect 2 was released in 2010.



This will give me more time to play games like Skyrim and Uncharted 3, then be able to replay Mass Effect 1-2 and then play Mass Effect 3 to finally end the story! I can't wait until Mass Effect 3 is released, but I want the game to be perfect, so I am glad they delayed it.






Usually, the terrible Electronic Arts (EA games) won't delay anything, because they only want to get their money immediately - however, they sometimes have to make exceptions when they know it'll ruin the games they're publishing. Mass Effect 3 is one of EA's biggest games, made by Bioware and being published by EA.

Mass Effect 3, New Screenshots

Here are a couple of new screenshots that are from the new and awesome game Mass Effect 3; this is a sequel to Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2. These games are some of my very favorite games; there are many choices to be made and any choice can affect tons of things in the end and during the journey.

Star Wars: The Old Republic, will get '1,000,000' Subscribers

Electronic Arts (EA) has announced that Bioware's new game, Star Wars: The Old Republic, will be profitable with only 500,000 subscribers; however, they actually think they will reach about double that number - 1,000,000!

One-million is a lot of people, Evil Arts... I mean EA. I really hope it does well, but still - it is EA, which I don't like (they ruin games...). Anyway, I still hope for the best in Bioware's efforts to make an awesome MMO.

The Sims Medieval, tv commercial

The Sims Medieval is a whole new game in the Sims series; no, it's not another expansion to the Sims 3 or any other Sims game. It is all on its own in the world, hopefully there to create a whole new piece of the Sims series, with its own expansions and everything.

I scoured the internet for this trailer after I saw it on television earlier, because I found it hilarious and ironic (which probably caused the hilarity). Anyway, go ahead and watch this awesome looking new game's trailer!
