I don't have any family playing the game with me. But there are 3 married couples in my guild who play together. They are a riot to be around to. I'll point this out to them.

If you send it in make sure you mention that each person that plays owns a single copy of the game cause i know non of you break the EULA

Two of my children and I play swg and eq2 (we started out playing eq1 together). I'm the Dad, and one child is an eleven year old girl and the other is a fifteen year old boy. Much better than watching tv together!!

My brother(In game name: Macill)and I(In game name Ackehece/Tife) have been playing together nearly since launch. At the same time as this game launchedwe moved to a small city called Lethbridge in Alberta to go to university andDan came with me to find a job as jobs in the far north were pretty few and far between. I started school and he started at the Comcast call center (Internet Tech Support) .
I would say we gamed probably 10-20hours a week on the Eclipse server until he started having headaches. They got progressively worse and our game play time suffered... so much so that I gave up on the guild I was leader of and moved to test center where the stress level was lower. My brother still played but less and less - not because he did not want to but because of his headaches. When JTL came out he tried playing hardcore again but as he approached his RSF master box his headaches became much worse.
Two cat scans later they discovered a tumor the size of a goose egg in the front right handside of his brain. They operated and removed the tumor but the tumor could only be removed 90% so he has the tumor still. He has tried playing since the surgery but can only play for mins at a time so he is considering cancelling his account as our finances have dropped - him not working, me working part time and going to school full time - paying rent, food etc... His headaches actually got worse after the surgery due to the nerves being activated and the drugs he is on to kill the pain make him twitch and not very awake at the best of times.
I miss having him as a partner in crime gaming and I pray every day that his tumor will go into remission but other then that all I can do is watch hiim suffer pain all the time and hope that when he is lucid from his pain killers he has some fun doing something.

My husband and I play together. Both for about a year now. My brother played for a bit on and off - may come back.
We have a great time at night after work - hunting - laughing - yelling at mobs. If he wasn't playing he would be yelling at me for playing too much since I play about 3 -4 hours a night weeknights and alot on weekends.

Its just me that plays, no family, significant others...I used to have a friend from work that played (he actually pulled me into it about a year ago..maybe more), but he doesn't play anymore
If I ever meet someone though that loves this game as much as I do, I suppose I'll propose or something - I love hearing about families that play or couples that play swg together, and now I have a place to send a girl friend (if I ever get one haha) and maybe this will convince her to give it a try....otherwise I'll be in trouble alot for never getting off the computer

me and my girlfriend both play SWG alot combined we have 6 accounts on starsider. both of us are looking forward to unlocking our jedis and seeing more of what SWG has to offer in the future. i have been a SWG member since launch and she has been a member now for about 1 yrs if not longer. Becuase of this game we have some great friends from around the world and in the US. So a big shout to SWG for being a great place to meet friends and having fun at the sametime.

I think I'm going to read as many of these as possible just in the hopes of getting my SO hooked.

I've been a member of the game for just under 2 years now. I still feel the excitement of the game as when I first started. So much more now that my family has joined in the fun. (just to give you an age range) I am 29 yrs old and so far my father(57), my younger brother(24), my older brother(31) and my nephew(11) have joined the adventure that is SWG. This is not even mentioning my friends that have joined. SWG isn't the only game from LA that we play together but it's where we spend most of our time. Keep up the good work and we'll keep adding family members! Nothing says family like taking down a Krayt with your Father and Brothers by your side!
