    I would imagine that this could be the next MMO for Giant Bomb to cover. Like Star Wars Galaxies has to end sooner  
    or later, Lucas Arts has to pull the plug eventually to make server space for KOTOR online. So would you like to see  
    Giant Bomb cover the end of Star Wars Galaxies?

    I think it would be cool, but nothing can top the Matrix Online's demise.

    I didn't know it was ending. Yeah, they should do one and they should get Jeff, who apparently hates Starwars, to do it.

    Well Lucas Arts has to shut it down sooner or later to clear up server space for the KOTOR MMO

    I thought they were just forcing people to move their characters to more populated servers, and shutting down the old ones?

    Its an SOE game, and I believe that they do the server hosting. I think that TOR will be hosted on private servers, but I'm not entirely sure

    SWG isn't ending. They're only closing some servers.
     
    The real game will keep going for quite a while- at least until the launch of The Old Republic.

    Then why did Jeff review Force Unleashed if he hates Star Wars? 
     
    Besides, if the Old Republic comes out next year, how much time will they have between shutting down the old servers for Galaxies and launching the Old Republic?

    A more important question is, if they do cover it, what will the "catch phrase" be? i.e. "not like this" for MXO. 
     
    I'm thinking "I've got a bad feeling about this...", but that might be too obvious.

    It's possible to play a game based on a universe you despise. For example, I love KOTOR and TIE Fighter, but hate Star Wars. It's cause those are well made games, period.

    I'm thinking "Lay Jabba no bother" now. That dude in ROTJ was awesome.
