Those are some of the most pitiful features I've ever seen. Screenshots, ads, and a demo. Sony had to dig really deep to come up with this "premium content."

desperation for a game repeatedly ruined again and again.

It's really sad to see the fate of the Star Wars MMORPG.

It had so much potential, and then of course Sony of all companies had way too much power over it...

Hmmmm, sorry but that list of extra features on the "Bonus DVD" is the funniest thing I have ever seen. What a joke!

Screenshots and videos of other people playing! Woooooot!!!! I will get my mates round and dim the lights for that! LOL

Hey, they're generous enough to give you an excerpt of the SWG art book!
Their economy department must really have been sweating over that one...

I played this game years ago for about 2 hours. What a load of w**k it was!
