Clone Wars might just be the New Everquest thing.  Another WoW clone to add to the list!!   j/k

 

GOOD POINT.  How the heck is Clone Wars on that list if DC Universe isn't... perhaps DCU is way off, Clone Wars is actually pretty close?  Nothing to do but wait and see I guess...


Why do I write, create, fantasize, dream and daydream about other worlds? Because I hate what humanity does with this one.

For sure.  The brilliance of this is, it will grab up the young generation of Star Wars fans - they will play for free most likely, using their browser so technically the game won't be severely demanding.

THEN these young gamers eventually graduate onto being paying customers at TOR = more money for Lucas.

 

Free realms actually launches a game client.  If I am correct it just used a browser to initiate the game.

That's correct.

The other thing is, the game obviously will have a monthly sub or else it would not be in the subscription section.

You either pay for each game or pay a bigger sub and get all games.

Expect an announcement any day i reckon,plus this game will defently come out before SWTOR.

Anyone who has tried free realms know that the game is not bad at all. Now they have not said they are aiming for the same player base. All they have said is they will use the free realms platform and create a casul mmorpg,that don't mean they are aiming for kids.

The only thing I'm questioning/curious about is the level of quality the game will be and how much content there will actually be... If it's decent I'll certainly sign up for it to help pass time til TOR comes out and I imagine I'm not the only one who will do that... which means when TOR launches it will likely take a massive blow to it's population.

The Station Access is a package deal. DCUO, being a new release, is probably not going to be included in the station games. I imagine there's some licensing fees they have to pay for it that make that option unrealistic.

DC Universe is May. It's likely not on the list because of the whole, you know, no subscription thing.

Well if you look at the sub page now,they have taken Clone Wars off the list,it obviously wasn't meant to be on their quite yet,unless SOE  were just throwing out a teaser.

People at swtor.com are saying it's been taken down too.  It was most likely a mistake... makes you wonder just how close they are to announcement / launch though.

Nothing.

I'm thinking this will be Free Realms with light sabers.  I would have put it there out of speculation.

If it gives me something to play until TOR launches I'm all for it.

Ditto.  Especially if it would be free and not terrible.
