Big news everyone! (Granted this was announced last Thu, but I was moving and unable to post until now) Star Wars the Old Republic is now available for pre-order from a number of retailers. Bioware/EA still has not given us a release date, but they are ready to begin taking pre-orders for the game. They also announced 4 different SKUs are available for purchase.

Trion has chosen Dimroot to become one of their new Trial account Shards, so if you have a character on that server you will need to move it ASAP.

The time to strike at Ragnaros draws near. The battle to protect Mount Hyjal now rages in the depths of Ragnaros’s smoldering realm. As territory is gained by Azeroth’s defenders and they draw closer to the inner sanctums of the Firelands, a monumental task awaits. Ragnaros’s lair–Sulfuron Keep–is closely guarded by his most loyal servants, including the traitorous Druids of the Flame and their mysterious leader. Yet the brave heroes who have ventured into this ash-choked domain cannot afford to shy away from any danger. The outcome of the battles that lie ahead will determine the very survival of Azeroth.

Well it’s another year of E3, come and gone. Compared to some years in the past, this E3 felt a little quieter and lacking in big reveals. I think the next unforgettable E3 will be when Microsoft and Sony announce new consoles, but personally I’d happy if the “PS4″ and “Xbox 720″ are another 3-4yrs out at least. When Sony first brought out the PS3 they mentioned a 10yr cycle, and with today’s always online gaming world, that’s highly plausible. The older consoles weren’t capable of online firmware updates and graphics technology was pushing new boundaries every month.
