Help!!! I'm addicted to Star Wars!


Help!!! I'm addicted to Star Wars!

Postby TechMage » Mar 9, 2002 @ 11:23am

About 3 weeks ago, my cousin let me borrow Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds in exchange for an old game called Warhammer Dark Omen. It started as a simple urge to play all the time, no big deal I thought, any good game has this affect on me. Boy, was I wrong. After playing the game everyday for two weeks I had this strange feeling come over me. I glanced over at my Star Wars Trilogy VHS tapes. I had bought them back in 95, but I had never really watched those movies all the way through. So one night I poped in Star Wars - A New Hope. After watching it all the way through, I thought, not too bad. So the next night I poped in Star Wars - The Empire Strikes Back. After watching it I thought wow, this trilogy is getting better with each movie. Finnaly I watched Star Wars - Return Of The Jedi. After it was over I was majorly hooked! I thought, these are some of the best movies I have ever watched! Then I returned to playing SWGB, but with a new awe and passion for it. Several days later I bought Star Wars - The Phantom Menace. I had seen the movie once before when it came to the movies, but I just had to see it again! As I watched the movie, I saw it through new eyes, the eyes of a Star Wars fan. Now I'm counting down the days until Sunday when fox will show the never before seen trailer of Star Wars - Clone Wars. This universe George Lucas has created is more addicting than crack!!!

Shattered Galaxy is a really fun game, too. MMPORTSRPPWG (Massively multi-player online real-time strategy role playing persistent world game), like a mix of Starcraft and Diablo. My English grade dropped because of this game and the projects I neglected. http://www.sgalaxy.com

MMPORTSRPPWG - hmm... not too sure about that, i mean MMORPG is massivley multiplayer online RPG, so isnt his just MMORTS or something? i mean, they're ALL persistant worlds arent they. or it would just be a run of the mill online game.

well, whatever.

gerorge lucas rocks. you seen the latest on AOTC? man, it reveals how obiwan hates flying, shows yoday CATCH a ball of blue lightning fired at him and sends it BACK to his attacker. oh boy.

SWGB is a very nice game. If you liked AOE and like SW, it's the game for you.
BTW, this Monday Fox is airing the trailer of Ep. 2. Cool! 8)
