Thread: SOE harmed Star Wars more than the Star Wars Christmas Special
I must admit having been a Star Wars fan for 27 years, this game has soured my perception of the whole genre. I dread the day I watch Ep 4 and start seeing familiar things in Mos Eisley that remind me of this game.
So much potential, so much wasted catering to children.

Back in 1978 - George Lucas allowed the biggest atrocity ever to take place - he allowed the creation of the single worst show to EVER be shown on television. The Star Wars Holiday Special. You won't believe how far into the pit of absolute SUCK this special will take you until you see it for yourself!
I think SOE has done worse to the Star Wars name.
SOE took the best idea for a video game, ever, and createdthe abomination we know as SWG.
What an absolute and complete waste of an idea.
SOE fails at life.

*AGREE*
but i still want to see the CHristmas SPecial. to see how much better it is than SWG!!!
SWG < SW CHRIRSTMAS SPEICAL![]()
I was like 5 years old when that travesty hit the air waves. Even at 5, I remember being like really upset at what a piece of crap it was. I recall yelling at the TV and getting in trouble for it. Haha.
FYI, this doesn't in anyway make me an SOE advocate.. I was just pointing out that I dislike one more than the other.
I have seen the star wars christmas special.... It really made my eyes bleed. Especially the ten minute long wookie chat that had no subtitles. Bea Athur singing in the cantina was also bad.
this game comes close... very close... but unless you've seen the vhristmas special i would reserve judgement.
don't get me wron this game is blowing chunks and im waiting for the "fix all patch" like people are alluding to but.. Christmas Special is a form of torture that should be banned by the Geneva Convention. I heard the USA is using it to torture suspects in Guantanamo Bay.

Uhm.....then why don't you quit?
I'm going to.
In all seriousness - meaning no offense to those who feel this game is undeserving of the franchise - this is a market driven economy.
As consumers, you DO have the power to "vote" on what products - or variations on products - companies will supply to consumers.
The catch - you vote with you dollars.
Wanna hear something scary?
I saw the Christmas Special...

I had safely pushed that bad memory of the x-mas special and the ewok special deep into the darkest corner of my mind...only to be focefully ripped out and jammed into my waking conscious because of you! thanks.
