Star Wars Galaxies has been reviewed at Ogaming and the final score is 77%. Another review that mixes a review with editorial, the first paragraph is marked as a 'rant':
It's really obvious who's behind most of the decisions behind Star Wars Galaxies: The marketing department. This game, from start to finish, was designed to suck every last nickel and dime from the player that Sony Interactive possibly could. From paying $5 for the beta cd (taboo in principle - beta testers are doing the company a favor by testing their game, or at least thats the way it used to be) to the higher than average $15/mo fee to the fact that Sony intentionally limited the number of CDs produced (as stated by the development team) so that if you haven't already bought a copy of Star Wars Galaxies, you have to buy the collector's addition (at least on the Sony site, SWG standard edition is sold out; the collector's edition weighs in at a hefty $80, but you get free shipping and handling! w00t). Not only that, but you are only allowed one character per server, so if you want to try playing a new character with your friends, you'll either all have to switch servers or shell out another $50/$80 for another copy of the game. Howbeit, enough ranting about the fiscal policies of Sony, let's get on with the review.
