Adam’s Star Wars: The Old Republic Level 10-30 Review

Over-hyped. If I was asked to describe SW:TOR with one (hyphenated) word, that would be it. But, fortunately I get to describe exactly why I have these feelings about a game that has been keeping me on my toes, waiting for its launch, and checking my emails for early beta access like More >
