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.
