00M-187 Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 I Really want to buy and play the game but holy fack, its pricey... 1 month - $14.99 3 months - $41.99 6 months - $77.99 12 months - $143.99 Thats like $20 a month Canadian. **** that. I dont think im gonna be playin this game, far to pricey... Anyone else feel the same way? Im not cheap or anything, but $20 a month to play a video game??
Deft Aklin Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 What, $.75 cents a day is well worth it to me, but it's more like $.50 American. Works out to be about 2 minutes of my current hourly wage.
Delphy Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 Yea I have to agree with Deft, .75 cents a day isnt bad.
jaybee2003 Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 Yeah, it's still a rip-off but hey- you can't put a price on this See you online!

toolfan Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 I think its to expensive to because other games are around $10 to $12. I personally think this game should be $10 a month. But i'm willing to pay for it because I want to play it.
00M-187 Posted June 27, 2003 Author Posted June 27, 2003 Does anyone know when the Xbox\Playstation version is coming out??
SD_ReBoRN__ Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 Well, when you think of it as 75 cents a day its not bad at all.
toolfan Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 The Xbox/playstation versions were just rumors. SOE has said that there are no plans for the game to be on the consoles. I dont know how such a crazy rumor got started, but it spread like wild fire. I believed it myself until I found out the truth just a few days ago.
Kenshin Himoura Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 http://www.teamxbox.com/gameinfo.php?id=417 I don't think its a rumor.
toolfan Posted June 27, 2003 Posted June 27, 2003 yes it is a rumor, SOE has already said that they have no plans to release Starwars galaxies for the game consoles. Any infomation on it being for any console right now is wrong.
swediot=) Posted June 28, 2003 Posted June 28, 2003 but it wasnt a rumour.... if anything says so NOW its a rumour but they did have plans for xbox live i know they did.... but how could you play a game like this without a key board?
jaybee2003 Posted June 28, 2003 Posted June 28, 2003 Reaper - right now they could probably shake me down for $50 a month lol. Wait, shouldn't have said that

Keyboard & Mouse's are beng released once Playstation live gets going. If it gets going, that is.
Abaddon Posted June 28, 2003 Posted June 28, 2003 hmm they must severely limit the graphics then... and yes i know the xbox is "tweaked" but still its a 750mhz and a GF3.
Luey Fubar Posted June 28, 2003 Posted June 28, 2003 Heh, I guess that it's a good thing that I live in the UK. It costs less than in US. ^_^ Too bad about getting it 6 months later though.

Anyone else feel the same way? Im not cheap or anything, but $20 a month to play a video game?? If you were in Japan it'd be close to 1,800.00 yen.

They wouldnt have to tweak the graphics that much probably... All they do i change the res to 640 because thats about the max res a standard tv... Plus when u design a game for a specific thing (XBOX) u can use every bit of it for performance... and if u didnt have to Run windows XP on ur desktop u could probably run SWG with much lower system requirements...

Ryre Solos Posted June 28, 2003 Posted June 28, 2003 Being Canadian myself (Winnipeg MB) I understand you compleatly. However. I couldn't disagree more... The game is compleatly worth it, and 20 bucks a month for the best graphics an mmorpg has at this time, is nothing, compaired to some games. EQ2 will probally be about 20 bucks canadian too. I can see many new games having higher prices due to the servers needed. They don't come cheap.

I think that sums it all up, servers don't come cheap now. And anyway the game will be worth it.
