SWG = OMG!

STAR WARS GALAXIES RULZ

Ok, aside from the fact that my pre-order copy didn’t come Friday (UPS blames Lucasarts for not shipping it out til Thursday…but then why does UPS tracking info begin Wednesday??)

Anyhow, I went to Best Buy and got it there, so I’ll be selling my spare copy.

Now, on to the game!!

Here’s the stats –

Hours played since Friday at 4pm: about 25hrs

Hours slept since Friday: about 15

Patches for game since Thursday (release day): 4 or 5 (ranging from 3 meg to 60 meg)

Times my wife has rolled her eyes at my gaming intensity: oh crap…my wife…so that’s who that is!!

The game is real fun. I’d have to say that it’s already as stable as Shadowbane, with a lot less noticeable lag. The number of bugs is about the same, maybe a few more in SWG, but it just released rather hastily…and Shadowbane has been out for 3 months.

50k screenshot…the graphics do get better…I have the ‘required’ GeForce 2 (Asus onboard video)….but my 9500 Radeon gets here July 2nd. My framerate right now never peaks above 13 fps, and it can get choppy in town.
