Beta Testers Increase For SW:TOR

The force will now be strong with many, many people come September.

At their PAX Prime panel BioWare announced that they will be increasing the amount of people that will be in the Star Wars: The Old Republic beta. Starting September 2nd BioWare will be sending out beta invites that I assume will be worth more than Goonies 2: Sloth's Boogalo.

If you already pre-ordered the game you will be guaranteed early access so don't fret about whether or not you'll get in.

Rumor: SWTOR Beta has Expanded

Apparently Bioware has started sending out more Star Wars: The Old Republic beta invites, so you better go and check your email now!  Now they have already been in a very limited beta, but now they are opening the closed beta up for more players.  Now this isn't confirmed, but I am reasonably certain that what I was told is true.

SWTOR Trailer: Eternity Vault

This new trailer show cases a newly announce raid in SW:TOR called Operation: Eternity Vault.  The trailer shows off a small example of how raids will play out in multiple stages and how they will still have stories.

Custom SW:TOR Gaming Products

Razer has just announced a line of 4 custom gaming products for Star Wars: The Old Republic.

The first is a backlit keyboard, featuring a full color LCD track panel (with multi-touch), 12 Dynamic keys with their own screens to show different abilities or for other hotkeys, along with a custom lighting system allowing the keyboard to suit your mood.

Next is a sleek and metallic looking wireless gaming mouse with 12 programmable buttons.

And to go along with it, a very nice looking mousepad.

And finishing it off with a 5.1 surround sound headset.

You can find more information on these products at Razer's website, here.

Kinect Star Wars

It looks like Microsoft didn't forget about that Kinect Star Wars game which they announced way back when Kinect was first announced.  It looks like it has come a long way from the quick concept video from a year ago!  Here is the new trailer for Kinect Star Wars!
