STAR WARS: The Old Republic Fan Friday

Welcome to Fan Friday! Today we’re giving you a look at some inspiring creations from the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ community and sharing an inside look at some work-in-progress content from the Development Team.

In addition, we’ll be following up on the Electronic Arts European Press Showcase held in London last week, as well as releasing the latest series of official polls and avatars.

Notice how the focus of the scene is centered on the conversation taking place, and how other objects behind and around the characters decrease in sharpness.

We showed off a lot of new and exciting material during the week, starting with our new “Return” Intro Cinematic which one viewer called “an epic video that captured so many aspects of the Star Wars™ universe I know and love.” Attendees at the show also had the opportunity to see the iconic world of Tatooine for the first time as well as an exciting group mission on Alderaan.

It will be also encouraging to the author if we all could share it (for some of us who use bookmarking services such as a digg, twitter,..).Thanks again.

This is the ideal post for someone who desires to be familiar with this subject. You certainly place a new turn on a topic that’s been on paper about for years. Fabulous material, your post is absolutely impact a read if somebody comes across it. I didn’t grasp that this subject was so vital. You undeniably place it in perception for me.
