If you have been waiting for Star Wars: The Old Republic to be released, your wait is over.  Star Wars: The Old Republic was released for the PC on December 20, 2011.

This game has been compared to another Role Playing Game (RPG), the World of Warcraft, the online fantasy game by Blizzard Entertainment which has a very large number of video game players.

Here are scenes from Star Wars:  The Old Republic.

There is quite a bit of voice acting in this game -- unlike the World of Warcraft. 

Here are the numbers:  Over 320 actors, with many in recurring roles; more than 4,000 characters and over 260,000 lines of dialogue-- which may be more voice acting than any other massive online video game to date.

You have a choice of various characters such as a bounty hunter, a Sith Inquisitor, a Sith warrior, an imperial agent, and many others. 

Star Wars: The Old Republic is set thousands of years before the rise of Darth Vader, and you must choose sides between the Old Republic and the Sith Empire.

Enjoy and may the force be with you. 

Star Wars 1313 focus will have a mature theme-- different from previous installments of the video game
