Wow, the sysreqs are a bit less than I would have thought, but it is interesting that tou do need a minimum of a dual-core processor. No release date listed, I see...

Hmmm...

To oreder now, or wait. Well, I can't order right now, but maybe this weekend. :-)

What bothers me is that the 30 Days game time is listed under Pre-order exclusives. Does this mean the game is going to sell for $60 without game time?

Post subject:  Re: Pre-orders are now available via the official SWTOR Site

nevermind. Grumbling is over. It's not part of the Pre-order exclusives, just listed below that. Thank god.

Pre-orders do appear to be limited. I just ordered the Digital Deluxe. Collector's appeared to be sold out. Retail stores (Gamestop) may have Collector's to pre-order still.

I've seen an late october date being floated elsewhere... I suspect that is more accurate. But hey they are giving themselves a fallback position if beta needs more work??? maybe...hopefully :roll:

Azz – they charge you once the game is released.

Amazon says they are trying to get more CE so I am waiting for a little longer in hope they get more, reason being I have been saving up amazon gift cards for the game and currently have about $100.

Wow, so Amazon is out of pre-orders for the CE? That's crazy. I was finally going to get a CE for this game.

I wonder if the fact that my SWTOR and Orgin accounts are on different emails will create a problem.

I read that CE's and Digital deluxes are gonna be limited I wonder if I should go ahead and bite the bullet now and get the 2nd DD account I know I'll end up buying or just waitting and get a standard one later.

Post subject:  Re: Pre-orders are now available via the official SWTOR Site

I heard (Gamebreaker podcast) that they'll take pre-orderers into early access in batches based on either when you registered or possibly based on when you purchased (assuming the codes are time coded).

Anyone else heard mention about it?

Bought it at GameStop Mon when I got back from San Diego and just registered today (cause I didn't notice that there was a code on the receipt :? )

I ended up only getting the digital deluxe as well. I just didn't feel justified in spending the money on the CE so soon after having been unemployed for 5+ months. I decided to be a little more frugal. We'll see if I come to regretnot getting the custom vendor.
