EA press conference for E3 : STAR WARS The Old Republic Presentation

By Top Star Wars Toys, April 23, 2011 Star Wars Videos

 

During this afternoon’s EA press conference for E3, Bioware and LucasArts announced that the upcoming MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic will be the world’s first fully voiced MMO featuring ‘hundreds of thousands of lines of dialogue’. The announcement came during the concluding minutes of EA’s event and featured numerous lightsaber-wielding Jedi mounting the stage, two of whom revealed themselves as representatives of Bioware and LucasArts. The two companies touted the game as ‘the largest voice over project in the history of games and maybe across all areas of entertainment’. As well as premiering a new Jedi versus Sith trailer (which you can see after the jump), they revealed that every class has its own unique storyline. “If you play the entire game as a bountry hunter, an Empire class, and then play the game again as a trooper, a Republic class, your game play experience will be completely different. As you can tell story means a lot to us. Until now MMO games have shown an impressive commitment to the classic RPG features of combat, exploration and progression, what we call the ‘three pillars’. What we’re adding is something that’s fundamental to success of great entertainment in general: story.”

@6insane6freak6 that maybe so but, Final Fantasy 11 had PC, PS2, and XBOX 360 where all three player bases co-existed on the same servers! It would be nice to see these games come to consoles but it would be very unlikely!

They’re reading their introductory statements off a teleprompter…. It’s not like they had all that much to memorize.
