So, I have this idea... We have about a million reviews out there, everyone saying relatively the same thing, giving their own personal scores... I thought perhaps we should try something a little different.  A COMMUNITY review.  Below you will find polls with certain features, and scores pertaining to those features.  Select the score you feel is appropriate.  Comment on what you graded and why.  

For those that haven't tested I've added a show results option.   I did not get to add Space Combat,  Sound, or  longevity to the polls, so you can speak a little about those features in your reply.

[Mod Edit - I've restored the polls, sorry for the mishap!]

Special Thanks to MikeB for keeping the dream alive! Thanks Mike!

"FINAL" PRE-LAUNCH SCORES:

Story: 9 - Excellent

Combat / Gameplay: 8 - Great

Graphics / Character Design: 7 - Good

Group Content / World Content: 9 - Excellent

Companions / Crew Skills: 9 - Excellent

Group content - Such as Flashpoints, RAIDS, and PvP

World Content - Such as Heroic Quests,  Open World Quests and other Open World Activities

Companions - Did you like having them? Were they a nice addition to combat, or a nuisance?

Crewskills - Did you send your companion on missions?  Did you spend a significant amount of time doing, or learning, about crafting?

You're welcome :P

Community review is up.  Interested to see the results.

This is an interesting idea weasel. I docked a couple of points from story because of the jedi ones. 

interesting idea. Fun to see that so far teh poll results are closely mirroring my own opinions.

You should make a poll asking when people are gonna get the game - preordered and excited, preordered but thinking of canceling, waiting a couple months...etc

Hey looky looky... so many hate threads but far more positive votes.

Nice idea!

nice idea indeed but some polls could be useful.. like pvp, space combat, crafting, etc.. just to mention some.

Poll Bump

the jedi ones??

They are Awesome!! Very Jedi-like :)

I was quite fearful of them because Jedis are NOT bad-ass in a robe, but Bioware delivered.

Ayway funnily, my votes were all but one the same as the majority :P

Does that makes me "average"?? noooooo! :)

Voted "Okay" since that's exactly how I feel about this game.

No surprises here: Bioware is being rated highly on their known strengths - story and companions - while the ratings for combat and customization - stuff they've never been exactly brilliant at - are not looking as bright.

All in all, the votes as they stand are very similar to how the game's been received generally. All the polls I've seen have been pretty close.

I gave a 7+ to everything except companions. I already can't stand them and I refuse to ever use one again. Seeing everyone running around with their stupid cloned companion is a severe immersion breaker for me, and where the hell is the option to mute their useless ramblings???

Also wtf is up with sending them on errands?? Click a button, wait 3 minutes, click another button...profit. That's one of the most uninspired features I've seen in an MMO in a long while...

Very good idea OP,well i plumped for good so gave it a 7 mainly because i just got to the republic fleet with 10mins to go before end of test,but overall a good impression and technically sound beta helps, quite rare these days as well !!! So maybe seeing more features i may increase the score hopefully i'll get further in the next  Beta fingers crossed.

Yeah the ragers are more prone to be vocal while people who enjoy the game just sit back and laugh, thinking "Sweet, one less whiner to worry about in chat".
