Star Wars Galaxies

Massively seem to be getting a lot of exclusives on this new part of the game (do we call it an expansion?), heh.  http://www.massively.com/2008/07/16/e308-a-first-look-at-champions-of-the-force/

No, we don't call it an expansion.  It isn't an expansion, therefore it's not called an expansion.

I'd call it one last grab for cash untill they shut it down, then what are you going to do with your cards lol.

they will be gone.

and your cash. you payed for them.

Expansion LOL.

It's a card game.  Woopdy-Doo.  It isn't that expansion Smedley promised in 2006.  It isn't Capital Ships that the development team promised when the NGE went live.  It isn't collision detection that the development team promised when the NGE went live...

It's a card game.  It's a card game.  It's a card game.

No, you call it what it is, a Trading Card Game or TCG whatever you prefer. Smed and others I think have confirmed that SWG will have no future expansions.

Every Chapter is considered expansion level content to them, because they haven't had one in so long they forget what an actual expansion is.

It's a card game, but it has some heavy tie in's to SWG with rewards, loots, etc.  An expansion is a content addition to a game that often adds a whole new style of play to a game (such as JTL), is it not?  Last I checked, this will be a different style of play from the main game, hence why I questioned if calling it an expansion would be appropriate.

To me an expansion means an expansion to the gaming environment. I wouldn't consider a card game to be this. As it has been stated it is a complimentory game to SWG, and not an increase to the gaming world.

Did anyone ever call it an expansion when they introduced things like the Jubilee wheel?
