That'd be amazing if it was, this is going to be the biggest MMORPG ever created. EverQuest + Nerd's Fantasy = tons of sales.

Ya, if they add a monthly fee on top of the Xbox Live service I'd most likely get SW:G for the computer. Without a keyboard it'd be really hard to communicate with 40 other people at the same time to take out a really tough monster. Communication was key in EQ when dealing with dragon raids or whatever, I don't see how 40 voice comms all actively talking at the same time would work out. Sure they'll come up with something though.

Any star wars game on the box is bound to be a 'blast'

actually, the last star wars game I ever played that I said "wow, this is a great game" was tie fighter on my computer... like 7 years ago. There have been quite a few crap-tacular SW games actually... which is bound to happen when there are at least 100 of them.

Tie fighter was probaly my favorite Star Wars game too. The enhanced version was even better! (duH.)

But F yeah, Nothing like flying around in a tie advanced or a Tie defender (i think it was called the Defender, the one with the 3 wings)

And the replays kicked ass too.

They already have a hockey game like that... its called real life, though you don't have the thumbstick :D Actually NHL2002 has manual aim where you bump the stick to place a shot in the goal, really helps when you know the goalies weak points too...

I surmise that a MMORPG is an RPG that is multiplayer compatible and/or on-line compatible. But what is it exactly?

How would an online RPG work?

And, just out of curiousity, what do the first three letters of the acronym MMORPG stand for?

Everyone that plays is on one server. Walk around and do what you gotta do......
