"RETURN TO A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY AS SPIKE TV LAUNCHES INTO HYPERSPACE WITH THE WORLD PREMIRE OF THE NEXT BIG “STAR WARSTM” GAME FRANCHISE"

The key bit that hints that it is SWG is the "Return to a galaxy Far, Far Away"

What other SW game has gone away to be able to return? SWG is the only one I can think of.

    Its not going to be SWG. 

    It says its a NEW Starwars Franchise. 

    And the return to galaxy far far away just means goign back into the StarWars Universe.

    Maybe you might actually want to read your own link you posted in your OP lol.

    Then reread your bolded sentence again. Carefully.

    That is what they called the NGE for SWG in 2005

    It could be SWG as F2P.

    Is a new game, not even a MMO. Battlefront 3? maybe?.

    Seriously, get over it. Its dead, gone and buried and rightfully so.

    No, it isn't SWG. Wait until the 31st. Whats coming is fairly exciting but it isn't SWG. By the way, keep in mind this is actually a new franchise all together set in the Star Wars Universe. It won't be a new KOTOR or Battle Front either. Just wait, thats about all that needs to be said.

    It could be a MMO. There is a MMO coming to Wii U.

    Now this, unless it is the same thing. Hopefully 2 new games, the Wii U MMO plus this: SWG the Next Generation

    The slogan says exactly that!  "Return to a Galaxy Far Away" .

    It means just that. You are going back to the Galaxy of the Star Wars Universe. That's it.

    You seem to be in the know. Care to share a bit more info about what is coming.

    Using the word return would suggest coming back to something I would imagine. It's not like Star Wars games in general have been unmade for ages.

    I hope its great and I hope it blows away those idots over at ea/bioware who botched the ip.

    I wonder if SWTOR will be shut down if this new game is an MMO. We don't want two Star Wars MMOs running around in case they get into a fight or something.

    LMAO!! 

    Out of every 100 men, 10 should not be there,
    80 are nothing but targets, 9 are the real fighters.
    Ah, but one, ONE of them is a warrior,
    and he will bring the others home.

    SW:TOR will not get shut down, no. BioWares contract with LucasArts happend only when LucasArts agreed upon certain criteria and one of them was that they couldn't intervene on the game outside of very specific development decisions, and that they can't shut it down under any circumstances. It was the only way the game was going to get made at all. The SW:TOR game, and franchise and where they go with it belongs to BioWare. This means if BioWare ever decides one day in the future to make a SW:TOR 2, and so forth, from what I understand of their contract they have every right to do so.

    SOE's contract was quite different, and had basically a lifespan "deadline" if you will for the game, wheras BioWare's contract in regards to SW:TOR has no such deadline.

     

    SWG is *NOT* coming back, the game is dead & gone outside of private servers, and even those are dwindling down. The game was not a very good game I know lot's of people loved it at one time but SOE and LucasArts both wanted the game to be shut down. SOE has current rights to the Clone Wars game, and possibly more to do with that era. I'm willing to bet that there will be several Star Wars MMO's released over the next 10 years, as I'm sure in reality none of them will compete with eachother too strongly.

    SWG is not coming back in any form, and the game is battlefront 3.  Reading and research is your friend.
