Trailers: Combat in Star Wars: The Old Republic
I’m glad to see that BioWare is making an effort to diversify combat so we’re not just clicking the same attack animation over and over again, but the presentation really does look a bit lackluster. They should get the Mass Effect 2 team to show them a thing or two about real time combat.

Trailers: See how BioWare’s constructing Coruscant
But what’s more fascinating is the incredible amount of information they’re rolling out for a game that hasn’t even reached Beta yet. Star Wars: The Old Republic must be unbelievably massive if BioWare and EA feel comfortable showing off new assets bi-weekly. But they must be doing something right–I’m actually excited about an MMO.

Oddly enough, this developer diary which focuses on voice acting seems to contain the first gameplay footage of The Old Republic that I’ve seen or heard of. It actually looks pretty good in motion, but leaves much to be desired in the dialogue close-ups. The voice acting itself also sounds good, even if they are going a little heavy on the tough-guy action hero voice. This game’s really shaping up.

Author: RyanFeature: The ultimate exclusive: Examining the emotional spectrum of video games
A common emotional reaction in video games.
So amid all the chaos that was GDC 2009, I managed to read a really great article on GameSpot about the societal impact of video games. One line stood out to me more than any other: “(Will) Wright also mentioned an experience he had with Lionhead’s Black & White, where he beat up his god creature ‘just to see what would happen.’ With the creature eventually bloodied and crying, Wright said that he legitimately felt pangs of guilt, an emotion that he couldn’t have gotten from other forms of media, such as movies.”
