Video of an Old Republic mission
Watch as a group of Sith players take on the Eternity Vault (for every video that looks good, there's another that makes the game look awfully tedious). Via.

New video shows off the Jedi Consular class in The Old Republic
This video is meant to show off the Jedi Consular class in The Old Republic, but the disguised Imperials seem a lot cooler. Via.

New Star Wars: The Old Republic footage
13 minutes of gameplay from Star Wars: The Old Republic, featuring a mission called The Esseles. This is the best gameplay video yet - - there's a delightfully chubby NPC at the beginning, and a truly despicable moral choice halfway through. (And lots of Mandalorians.) Via.

Star Wars: The Old Republic preorder bundle details
Per Kotaku, supposedly this is the Star Wars: The Old Republic Collector's Edition, retailing for €149.95/$175 USD:
Exclusive Gentle Giant Darth Malgus statueSounds pretty unimpressive to me, and the reports are that EA will try to manufacture desire by limiting preorders. Of course, Amazon is always bloated with collector's editions that don't sell even at reduced prices.

It would be cool if there was a standalone character creator like with Spore.
New Bounty Hunter video for The Old Republic
Apparently market research has told Bioware that people are extremely interested in the bounty hunter class, since they posted another video about the class's progression months ago. Here's yet another video showing off the bounty hunter in action, and also a few wallpaper-sized stills:

Star Wars: The Old Republic wallpapers
I meant to post this last night, but Blogger's image uploader wasn't working - - I cropped some wallpaper-sized stills featuring Darth Malgus and his master from The Old Republic's cinematic opening.

Opening cinematic for The Old Republic
A little repetitive of the cinematic videos to date, but still very cool - - the opening cinematic for The Old Republic.
Star Wars: The Old Republic Trooper Progression
The latest video for The Old Republic shows off the Trooper class and features a ridiculous design:
Here's a much older video showing how the animators went about designing the class:

1. The ESPN Films: 30 for 30 Limited Edition Collector Set is 40% off at Amazon. (Perfect for Father's Day.)
2. Desktop wallpaper of a forest reclaiming a city.
3. 90 minute video showing off (what I think) are the first few quests of the Jedi class. It looks a lot like KOTOR.

Sith Inquisitor Class (The Old Republic)
The video showing off the Sith Inquisitor class is the best yet (of course, Palpatine was always my favorite...). I like the Sith masks too, including Darth Jadus's:

Link roundup
1. RPS calls The Old Republic's player vs. player component "a tedious, miserable experience."
2. Good example of how websites try to take advantage of SEO to build traffic. (Seems like such a miserable, joyless way to make a buck.)
3. The Conan trailer is one of the worst trailers I've seen in recent memory (I hate everything - - the editing, the music, the look of the characters, the behavior of the characters). By comparison, this two-minute scene from Drive is excellent.
